    Your Thoughts: Henson's Place DVD

    Because even though there are lots of Classic Muppets in it, the ultimate subject matter is about Jim Henson and his works/career. Of Muppets & Men, by contrast, is a documentary very specifically focused on the making of The Muppet Show and goes to Disney. I'm sure Henson/Disney (not to...

    The Muppet Mindset

    You lucky Brits! Not only do you get Studio DC on dvd but even your dvd covers have photos of real Muppets on them instead of ugly posers.

    vBulletin Forum Questions: How Do I?

    There's been a couple of times where i've accidentally hit Mark Forums Read instead of View New Posts (which can be easy to do while the page is still loading and moves on you when you're trying to click something else). It's an annoying mistake to make, but all you have to do as a workaround...

    The Muppet Mindset

    THANK YOU for your latest article on the danger to PBS' funding. My only quibble is i would have liked it if you mantioned that two other PBS shows, Sid the Science Kid and Dinosaur Train are also Henson shows (and for that matter that all the current regular new Muppet/Henson shows right now...

    This Frog vs. My Pollywog Ways

    If they reshot it with another Muppet frog, yeah - the boards would go crazy. But i could see them doing a new version of the song with animation.

    This Frog vs. My Pollywog Ways

    If they did tape anything extra at the beginning, it didn't air on the show. What you see online is as it aired on SST.

    The Seventh (Somewhat) Annual Muppet Central Forum Awards 2011

    Looks good. There is however one area i can easily foresee being a bit of a logistical problem: I think you can strive to do this when possible, but i can already tell you, the votes won't always lend themselves to where this can always be done. Sometimes you may get lucky and five choices...

    This Frog vs. My Pollywog Ways

    I'm on Team This Frog all the way. My Polliwog Ways is a good song but This Frog is just too-awesome-for-words outstanding. It's actually my fave Kermit song - moreso than Bein Green or Rainbow Connection and really wish it was as well known as the other two.

    Redeeming Villains in Stories - Right or Wrong?

    Oh - meant to include this in my last post, but left it out... Another important thing to consider is that the best stories/writing has some kind of change where the main character is somehow different at the end; changed in some way even if it's just a minor learning experience. Now usually...

    The Winners of The Muppet Central Forum Awards

    There'll be a thread for the award ceremony...and of course this year's winners will also be added to this thread too.

    Redeeming Villains in Stories - Right or Wrong?

    Pretty broad question - so i'd have to say depends on the story and the character. Though by and large, the best stories are ones that recognize that very few people are "all bad" or "all good" - and that very rarely are there ever really "true villains" - but rather people whose goals...

    The Seventh (Somewhat) Annual Muppet Central Forum Awards 2011

    You know i'm okay with it! And thanks for asking everyone this time before making a big change.

    The Seventh (Somewhat) Annual Muppet Central Forum Awards 2011

    I fully support exploring ways to bring in more votes, but i think opening the eligibility to "everything and anything" is more than a little self-defeating and takes away from the very meaning of the awards. I think you're on the right track but took the wrong train. Here's how i think you...

    ABC's daytime dramas need support now!

    Just to add a lighthearted epilogue to the more serious topic, below is a list i posted to some fan forums a while back in regards to Favorite Memories/Why I'm A Fan. When you spend an hour a day with a show five days a week most every week of the year, it's hard not to get hooked and sometimes...

    ABC's daytime dramas need support now!

    Many of you know that one of my other major areas of fandom is One Life to Live and that i've been a major supporter of keeping the rapidly dying daytime drama genre on the air ( http://forum.muppetcentral.com/showthread.php?t=44778 ). The below article is a more concrete confirmation of things...

    Your Thoughts: Henson's Place DVD

    That's the thing with proper names though, regardless of whether you're a public figure or everyday joe, most names originate from a particular region and as such, like any "foreign word" open themselves up to being mispronounced not even necessarily because of ignorance but because of how other...

    What are your thoughts on Facebook?

    Sorry, but it IS a very optional AND feasible choice to not have one. I have zero desire to be on FB, and for once that's a conscious decision and not due to the limitations of webtv or poverty (though webtv doesn't get along well with FB - but i could still set up an account at the library if...

    Am I Imagining Things?

    Hadn't noticed. But wouldn't it be cool if they could replace it with a popsicle stick icon?

    Henson.com Podcast to interview Fred Newman - Questions?

    I'm sure questions about his memories and impressions of Jim are a given but i'd also like to hear his recollections of Richard Hunt.
