    Bands You Could See Working With The Muppets?

    Cyndi Lauper definately. The closest she's come is an appearance on Elmocize but she needs to work with the Classic Muppets. Chris Isaak - the guy's known for his great sense of humor as much as his music. Annie Lennox - earlier in her career i doubt she would have done so, but these days...

    Emergency! Selling all my Muppet/Henson stuff (and more)

    No, no - nothing's on Ebay (you may recall i can't use ebay - i don't use Paypal plus ebay's not webtv friendly). I just tend to use the phrase "silent auction with a reserve" to describe the style of which these are being sold since i keep getting the pricing question over and over. Expect...

    Emergency! Selling all my Muppet/Henson stuff (and more)

    It is still available. Like everything else, it's being sold "silent auction with a reserve" style - name a price (bid) and as long as it's reasonable (not too low) and no one makes a higher bid within 24 hours, it's yours. PM me or email me direct at dw_m@webtv.net with your bid.

    Alternate endings in scripts

    Back when i wasn't struggling financially, i used to collect scripts. However i've not seen any for a production that has alternate endings. My educated guess though would be that there's no set procedure - it just depends on the production and its team (and the purpose of having alternate...

    Emergency! Selling all my Muppet/Henson stuff (and more)

    Bumping thread due to lack of orders the last few weeks (i've had a couple people making what seemed like serious offers but ultimately didn't follow through) so no changes to what's still available - see the last few posts and everything mentioned is still up for grabs. Plus the personal hits...

    The Muppets Kitchen with Cat Cora

    I'm actually very optimistic about the project after seeing the two promo clips. The new chef doesn't bug me yet. This may change once i see the show but i'm keeping the big picture in perspective... - When one thinks "Muppet doinga cooking show", Swedish Chef is the first thing that comes...

    Do you Last.fm?

    I don't use lastfm since my antiquated web system's incompatable with it, but i do frequently visit the site since i find it fascinating to see the "charts" as per what tracks my favorite artists are being listened to most.

    Muppets on Extreme Home Makeover

    Didn't watch, but smart money's on it being a repeat. Muppets Studios has it pretty together these days to where if it was a new apearance, word would have gotten out via their Twitter feed and/or Facebook page, at least one of the Muppet news sites would have been given a heads up and it...

    Best Waiter Grover sketch?

    One of my all time fave Sesame quotes comes from that sketch: Kermit: "I *told* you - FROGS DON'T HAVE EARS!" (smugly:) "We hear anyway."

    Best Waiter Grover sketch?

    I want so badly to mention something someone else hasn't said, but let's face it - the true classics are truly classic! I knew in my head my choices when i saw the thread title and there they all are... the BIG hamburger or the little hamburger Mexican Restaurant (THAT SONG - "your numero...

    Overrated Music

    The thing that bugs me so much about the Jonas Brothers is that they've been around for awhile (having the Disney machine behind you helps insure a little more longevity than other teen flavors of the moment) and despite the boys now being in their late teens-early 20's, there's no maturity in...

    Jerry Lewis Telethon 2010

    For the last decade, i've let the vcr run over the weekend to catch any Muppet appearances. However i've not done so this year. For one, the appearances haven't happened the last couple years and two now that Disney really has it together with keeping fans updated of appearances via its...

    Mickey talking to guests at Disneyland

    The really cool thing is as nifty as it is to adults, think how truly magical this is for kids. I always was disappointed with Disneyland trips as a kid because the characters i was meeting didn't talk (their size didn't affect me but their silence did). If you could have these characters not...

    Does prayer actually work?

    I grew up not indoctrinated into a particular religion and allowed to grow up making my own choice as to my belief system. I had experimented with various faiths/views. I've always had my skeptic side but there's been times where i was very active in church and considered myself religious...

    Some studio news for Greatest Muppet Movie

    Disney recently put out a casting notice to the trades. No specific parts mentioned; these would mainly be for the extras or bit parts but of course being that the announcement is direct from the studio, there's quite a bit of interesting tidbits that confirm their plans... ** Walt Disney...

    Fic: Muppets from Earth

    With all the personal drama i've been caught up in, i'm a bit behind on reading the forum so i've only just started reading this - i've just finished page two. I usually wait until i've read all a thread before posting but didn't want to wait in this case. I don't know if you gave it any...

    The Best/Worst Song Covers Thread

    That cover of Ritz was done by Taco. Soft Cell - another great artist that has lots of wonderful history and songs (in between the group and Marc Almond solo) that sadly is only known in the USA as a "one-hit wonder" But if you love Tainted Love, you should check out some of their other...

    Muppets Sherlock Holmes

    It does seem that so far each of the tales the Muppets have taken on in the comics just so happened to take place at the same time a major project based on the same classic was happening. Maybe we can use this as a barometer to predict what the next title will be at a given time.
