    Your Favorite SST Muppet Design Through the Years

    Herry - the second puppet is the all time best. The first one with the blue nose didn't look that great (but far from the worst as i'll get to in a sec), but once they improved on him with the purple nose, the size, eye focus and shagginess, that is to me the ultimate Herry - the one i know and...

    Making some Fraggle Puppets, and I could use some help/wisdom

    Okay - here are my suggestions: 1) Gather together every single trashbasket you have in the house 2) Dump the contents all together in a pile in your basement. You asked for help/wisdom, so since i know doing that won't be much help, it will at least give your Fraggles some wisdom in...

    Rocky Mountain Holiday on YouTube

    A lot of the stuff with Robin is remote control - remember this was between Great Muppet Caper and Muppets Take Manhattan plus around the beginning of Fraggle Rock so remote control Muppetry was the team's big "toy" at the time that they were more than happy to be showing off.

    Muppets Tonight...?

    Disney also stated way back when the first box set came out that if sales go well they hope to release Muppets Tonight after all five seasons of the Muppet Show come out (of course that was two leaders of Muppet Studios ago, but i doubt that sentiment would have changed!) The Jim Henson Hour...

    The Brand New Ask Jim Lewis Thread

    Hey minor muppetz, if you don't mind i'd like to "share" that question with you and piggyback off it a little... Though he only made a few appearances (and some off screen mentions), every time Fleet was on the show, he had laugh out loud moments - even though the writers say they had a hard...

    To the long time posters...

    I'm still here - but forums are low on my priority list given all the other life stuff i'm dealing with these days - way behind on threads but i'll post when i have something to say or contribute. Am still on my webtv (ah - the life of the forever empoverished!) haven't been able to access...

    Anything Muppety From Comic Con?

    There's really huge fan cons that are organized by professional companies devoted to putting on such events - both Muppetfest and the various official Farscape cons were both organized by Creation who do those notorious Star Trek cons. Then there's fan organized ones - these usually tend to...

    Pictures of the new eFX Replicas: Reporter Kermit, Rizzo and Miss Piggy

    I am very impressed. Even though MR did a great job, one could always tell that a photo of one of their replicas was exactly that - a REPLICA of a poser...i'll be danged if that Rizzo doesn't look like it's an actual official Muppet poser of Rizzo under that glass!

    Please Bring Back (fill in the blank)

    The Gonzo puppet actually still has the ability - they just save it for special gags so when it happens it's totally unexpected. When Dave Goelz spoke as part of the latest Jim Henson Legacy touring exhibit when it was in AZ last year, he brought out Gonzo at the end to take questions from the...

    Please Bring Back (fill in the blank)

    Okay, here's a thread for our Muppety nostalga of days gone by...what thing from Muppets past would you totally wig out to see brought back into modern times? You can name anything from characters, costume pieces, routines, things concerning the writing, any kind of element of the Muppets that...

    TMS Comics Availability Problem

    Am getting caught up on old threads and just came upon this one...here's something that still hasn't been quite thrown out. Someone else DID mention that if you don't mind waiting, all the issues will come out in collections anyway. I would add that these collections should be able to order...

    The what shows do you miss that you wish were around thread?

    Left one out of my previous post..."Just Say Julie". I really wanted to do an article about "Julie Brown is the Coolest Person in the Universe" on muppetfreak (since i did posts about other non-Muppet areas of fandom about 15-25% of the time) and if things get better for me where i can revive...

    The what shows do you miss that you wish were around thread?

    Shows i miss to the point of it almost hurting... You Can't do That on Television...totally groundbreaking and most importantly funny! This was a true rarity - a show with kids that kids and adults could enjoy...multilevel humor, kids and situations that the audience could relate to...this...

    Sesame Street at A Capital Fourth

    Has Eric EVER done Cookie? That was definately David - in fact, i thought that that appearance was really the only major Cookie Monster performance where he sounded very much like a "David Rudman character" - in other words, David has a pretty distinctive voice (and i never would have thought...

    Anyone ever file for bankruptcy?

    Thanks - that's much more the type of info i was looking for. It has gone beyond the point of communication with the creditors; like i said, have gone through the process of other methods - and it's not getting to the point of going with the last resort. Since you know someone who's been...

    Anyone ever file for bankruptcy?

    I really don't care to go into everything on a public forum so if it's that important for you to know the whole story you can contact me privately, but suffice to say i've had financial woes piling up for a long time - have experienced quite a bit of bouncing from job to job (all lower paying...

    Anyone ever file for bankruptcy?

    Indeed - bankruptcy laws and procedures are different in each country so obviously i would need to hear from an American about this! Someone? Anyone?

    Anyone ever file for bankruptcy?

    Out of all the people on this forum, _no one_ has ever experienced this or knows a family member or someone close who has? I really need to know this information now as time is really running out to take some kind of action. I'm very scared and would really appreciate hearing from anyone with...

    Anyone ever pawn anything?

    How does this work exactly? Am considering doing this with some of my stuff but have no idea what all it entails?

    Anyone ever file for bankruptcy?

    I'm thinking about doing this but would like to hear from someone who's done it - what did it entail (how exactly does it work) and what was your experience - how did it affect you - did it help or hurt things more?
