    Favorite Song

    Just a Dream Away - not just because of how beautiful it is but the role it plays in Mudwell's life.

    Dark Crystal II Directors Creating Hundreds of Puppets

    One of the things I really think makes the Spierigs the right guys to make this - their film Daybreakers has the same kind of lonesomeness that makes so much of The Dark Crystal unsettling. It's all about atmosphere. The reason it scared me so much as a kid, and still gives me the heebie-jeebies...

    Your Favorite Romantic Muppet Moment

    Maybe not quite romantic, but one of the moments in Letters to Santa I really loved was when Beaker was dancing with his girlfriend, and Bunsen approaches and asks, "May I cut in?" - and begins dancing with Beaker. Such a sweet moment.

    The White Stripes broke up today

    Very sad news - they were always a fun duo. The last song they played live together was almost two years ago, on Conan O'Brien's last Late Night - they played a beautiful, raw rendition of We're Going to Be Friends. A lot of people didn't like it but I adored it.

    Heads up Nathan Fillion fans

    More fun Fillion news: he'll be the voice of Hal Jordan in an upcoming direct-to-DVD/Blu Green Lantern animated movie. For many GL fans he was the first choice for the role in the live action movie coming this summer (Ryan Reynolds has the part now, and looks to be pretty great).

    Past the Radar Muppet Moments

    The When Harry Met Sally sequence in the Billy Crystal episode of Muppets Tonight. Watched that again for the first time since I was six the other day and hoooo boy.

    Masterpiece Mystery - Modern Sherlock Holmes on PBS

    This is an EXCELLENT series. Benedict Cumberbatch is an excellent Holmes, but even greater is Martin Freeman's Watson. I've always loved watching him, and it's amazing to me that in the span of several years he'll have played two of my favorite literary characters, Watson and Bilbo Baggins.

    Cutest Muppet Moments

    Two come to mind, and I'm not sure why these two, but I love them. One is in The Muppet Christmas Carol when Rizzo inexplicably kisses Gonzo on the nose after an argument; the other is during the Muppet Babies sequence in The Muppets Take Manhattan, when Baby Rowlf starts paying the piano and...

    Kermit songs

    Hi everyone, I've decided as a mass Christmas present this year for friends, I'll be making an entire Kermit CD (with guests from Rowlf, Robin, Fozzie, Piggy, whoever else), and I was wondering, what are your favorite songs Kermit sings I may on my list so far? "The Rainbow Connection"...

    The song that defines Christmas

    For me, Bing & Bowie's "Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy".

    Muppet Christmas MUP3's

    Hey everybody - I know this is a lot but I want to make my girlfriend a CD of Muppet Christmas songs, and so I'm trying to find the following (which I can't seem to anywhere!): -"A Christmas Together" soundtrack -"Muppet Christmas Carol" soundtrack -"Muppet Family Christmas" soundtrack...

    Unofficial Script Review of the New Muppet Movie

    I think the title needs to be changed. It's funny but seems... a little self-indulgent on Segel and Stoller's part. Then again, maybe it'll work - a title as ridiculous (and they know it's ridiculous) as that will certainly be joked about by the characters. Either way, this sounds really great...

    Unofficial Script Review of the New Muppet Movie

    Under 2010 there's an "Untitled Muppet Project" listed - you can't access the page for it yet, and thus Segel and Stoller aren't listed - but it's there. When the movie starts production we should start to see people's names being listed.

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Letters to Santa

    Am I the only one who thinks "may I cut in?" was absolutely adorable and one of the best Bunsen / Beaker moments in recent Muppet history? I think every Muppet production has at least one moment that just absolutely defines what the Muppets are to me, and fleeting as it was, that was the...
