Sam and Friends Book Read our review of the long-awaited book, "Sam and Friends - The Story of Jim Henson's First Television Show" by Muppet Historian Craig Shemin.
I'm not sure where Rizzo was. I certainly didn't see him.
Also, I have it under very good authority that about 1/3 of the show is different from the Hollywood Bowl ones.
I was at the premiere too, but I had no idea there were other MC'ers there. We had our whatnots with us and at the last minute got pulled out of the crowd to actually attend the premiere! It was an awesome experience!
It seems that the UK premiere is on Monday 24th at the Curzon, Mayfair in London. I'm seriously thinking of attending. Did anyone make it to the last one to know if it's worth it? My nephew and niece are desperate to meet a Muppet.
For those of you missing Robin, he is on the Muppet Show poster in these photos (just above/left of Fozzie). Hopefully that's a good sign. With the movie centering on Kermit it would make sense for him to appear.
It was suggested, but we didn't try it. I think getting the guys to do one Fraggle song was a coup so I don't know if I'll talk them into another one!
I'd love to do a Henson EP!!!
Thanks guys.
It went really well with several people saying Dixie Wailin was the best song of the night. I was surprised how many of the audience were familiar with Fraggle Rock as up until we sang most of the songs were a lot older as the audience and performers were mostly 50+.
I recorded...
We're going to be singing Dixie Wailin' and Ladybug's Picnic.
Both are working really well and I think Dixie Wailin' will become part of our standard set! We already sing another funeral song so it works nicely! For Dixie Wailin' we're singing the first two verses slowly with lots of comedy...
Agreed. If I didn't believe that I'd have let my nephew enjoy TM11 and not worried about introducing him to other Muppet works.
I actually think that there are 2 ages to catch a person and have them become Muppet fans and that's either when they're young enough to enjoy the silliness and...
I don't see this as an old Vs. new argument so much. As I said, my nephew loved the Ed Sullivan skits. They were fun, funny, entertaining and could be appreciated on many levels.
This is also true of GMC, but IMHO that movie has too many places where the script carries the humor and not the...
I have to admit (to my eternal shame) that even as an adult I find The First Time It Happens a bit over long. It's a nice way to set up the love triangle, but I think the dance sequence is overdone.
If you suspend disbelief enough to be a Muppets fan then the joke of this happening to a pig...
I would agree to a certain extent, but look at the movies that are popular with kids now compared to when TMM came out. They are much more frenetic and physical. That's not to say that kids can't enjoy something gentler, but they aren't as used to it as we were then.
I base my feelings on GMC...
