    Can someone please identify this character?

    Exactly - and this Muppet is one of them - or at least if it had any kind of name on set or behind the scenes, it's never been revealed (it's not in the script) Since the puppet's design is focused on such a huge pair of lips, i always figured it was a little bit of a tribute or nod to the...

    Hmm...maybe you just need something else to occupy your mind (contemplates throwing a surprise party)

    What are your thoughts on Facebook?

    The feedback i provided in your initial thread asking about Myspace were pretty much directed towards both Myspace and Facebook. I will say that i'd tend to be more apt towards going w/ Facebook myself if i were to choose between the two but as i've said i personally would avoid either one as...

    The State of Fandom

    Fandom by nature is a passionate activity - we strongly relate to something and want to see it at its best. Hence when fans find outlets to connect with each other and express their passions things can really get amplified. The Muppets have a good fanbase. Are there flaws and problems with...

    Reality Programming on Cartoon Network?

    Is is that surprising? Reality stars like Paris Hilton and Anna Nicole Smith are cartoons themselves so why not put that ilk on the cartoon network?

    The 10 Worst Muppets?

    This aspect of the character reminds me of the conservative leaders of watchdog groups like Moral Majority or American Family Association - the whole purpose of their existance is to live in criticism of others and they'd feel empty and meaningless if they didn't have stuff to lash out against.

    Bobo: Hand rod or live hand?

    Bobo started as one of the bear puppets from Muppets Take Manhattan and was both a costume puppet and "upper body" puppet. I don't think they've ever used the full body variation since it was modified into Bobo.

    Claudia Black on Farscape webisodes

    Okay, Henson Company has talked about webisodes for quite some time now and continues to tell fans that "they're coming" but i've had serious doubts about this actually happening. Claudia Black ("Aeryn Sun") was asked about these recently in an interview and here was her response: Q...You...

    The 10 Worst Muppets?

    In regards to this list, it's clear from some of the other articles he's written for the host site that he is a Muppet fan. Maybe not quite a "Muppet Freak" who knows of more characters to compile a better list but a fan nonetheless. I kind of get the sense though that the whole article is...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets on "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition"

    The "Just One Person" number was the only part of the show that was lacking. I totally felt it should have been done and it was the perfect song, don't get me wrong - but not only did there seem to be some technical issues (Eric's mike didn't seem to be working as Fozzie - couldn't they at...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets on "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition"

    Overnight ratings news: Since they were up against the final Sunday Night Football game and the Simpsons, Extreme Makeover: Muppet Edition came in 3rd in its timeslot - but was still in many ways a win for ABC. ABC had it's best Sunday night overall this season and its best rated Sunday...

    I'm considering giving myspace another go

    Facebook, Myspace, and Twitter are all massive fads that people have been brainwashed and peer pressuring the mass populace into believing they "need". I wouldn't say "don't do it" but i do encourage people who are having second thoughts on setting up a page or are hesitant about doing so to...

    Frank Oz's last performance question?

    The good news is i taped it and is somewhere in my massive collection. The bad news is that since that was before everything started to fall apart in my life getting thrown out of my family's house for being gay and having to move as hastily as possible it's among a large group of tapes that i...

    A Sound of Change

    Happy to sign - many of these are major nuisances and difficult for those with perfect eyesight. I can't even imagine how frustrating they are for those who don't see as well!

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets on "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition"

    ...Not to mention all those of us who DID set our dvrs and are adding it to our collections who are happy to do tape trades with those who didn't get a chance to see it.
