    Odd Plush Animal

    My guess is its a Halloween costume themed plush - like the number of odd Muppet plushes of the characters wearing bizarre costumes that show up in claw grab games this time of year. Either that or Animal came across Gilda Radner's old operetta partner and immediately figured "LUNCH!"

    Where is Steve Whitmire Petition

    Well given this theory, and in support of the Steve Whitmire Petition and "one Muppet, one voice", until we find out what's going on with Steve i am hereby referring to substitute Kermit as "Kismet the Toad" and encourage others to do the same!

    Kermit at the MTV Video Music Awards

    Now you KNOW i would be all over a Fleet comeback! (Besides of course his latest little cameo you-know-where and if you don't i'm not spoilering it for you) - i just posted a wild totally out-there so-crazy-it-just-might-work theory on what's going on with Steve in the Steve Whitmire petition...

    D23 Expo: Muppet news and happenings

    (psst..he's REALLY asking "hey uh by the way, you didn't happen to see a 50 year old curly haired guy under Kermit didja?) <grin>

    Where is Steve Whitmire Petition

    Okay, i have a new theory about where Steve is - it's completely whacked-out, highly unlikely, totally out-of-left-field but it's certainly better than a lot more somber, worry-inducing realistic ideas running through our heads at the moment so if this eases anyone's mind for a brief milisecond...

    Where is Steve Whitmire Petition

    Yikes - now that's scary if Henson Co (or at least the public relations dept) doesn't even know what's going on...even if they no longer own the Muppets, they own Fraggle Rock which has its own relaunch plans, so one would think they'd have very close tabs on Steve.

    Kermit at the MTV Video Music Awards

    I'm sorry but i though the VMA appearance was worse than AGT. People were talking about how Kermit seemed mumbley and i didn't think it was that bad - but at VMA's it totally sounded like the performer had gumballs in his mouth - it was really kind of distracting because the unintentional end...

    Kermit at the MTV Video Music Awards

    Being on the West coast (since we don't change times for daylight savings AZ is pacific time zone half of the year), the awards started less than an hour ago. So are you saying Kermit was just on the pre-show and not anywhere during the awards show itself? Can i shut my vcr off? Overall...

    Kermit at the MTV Video Music Awards

    It's precisely in part BECAUSE of all the exciting news we got this weekend that makes the whole "Steve Wherefore?" issue even more maddening. We've seen how committed Disney is to a fullscale Muppet relaunch this next year and just now when we finally get the big Muppet mania movement we've...

    Something hilarious i just noticed about Connie Stevens episode

    Some of you may know that i'm a huge One Life to Live fan. There's one character on there named Roxy Balsom that always kind of reminded me of an alchoholic version of Connie Stevens since she made her debut. (The character's gone on to become a largely comic relief character but also does...

    Recent Muppet Puppet Revisions

    I thought Gonzo looked strange too (of course Gonzo should always look strange but that's beside the point). Of course my first impression was in a wider shot. It looked like he recently adopted the same diet plan Bunson's apparently been on! Then i saw closer shots of him and i liked it...

    Halloween

    The way around that is to include a button and/or other Janice/Electric Mayhem accessories to the costume - kind of how those old children's costumes of Sesame Street characters would have Sesame logos on the chest instead of the expected fur or striped shirts or whatever one would expect the...

    The New Movie: The Muppets

    Official confirmation of a new movie is great news - that the announcement was made not during the scheduled Muppet presentation but during Dick Cook' address is even better as that shows how firmly Disney is (and on such public record) towards the 2010 relaunch. But i have mixed feelings about...

    New Shalom Sesame

    Ooh - now THERE'S an idea! Especially given the 40th anniversary, the sheer number of international versions, the resurgence of Shalom Sesame, and the occassional international clips on Sesamestreet's youtube channel, i could totally see a regular series where they show one of the various...

    What would've Jim Henson done after 9/11?

    What would Jim Henson have done after 9/11? Just a guess, pure speculation, but i'm pretty sure he would have flipped his calendar over to 9/12. No seriously though, i could see him really lending talent and money to charities...it is hard to really say because at the time, the main Henson...

    Custom Little People

    I think the demand is there, it's just an individual thing as to why each buyer may want them...you said yourself you wouldn't mind a Telly so others may have their own eras or cutoff points. Just off the top of my head, i think the two big draws would be (1) timelessness - even though the...

    Your Thoughts: "Families Stand Together" Sesame Street Special

    Even though it wasn't written by Joey Mazzarino, i think Jerry and the little walk down memory lane of all Grover's jobs was our first examples of the kinds of Easter Eggs that Joey said all the new episodes of SST will have this year.
