    Your Thoughts: New Green and Red Christmas CD

    That was also 1979, when using the word 'Christ' was acceptable.

    I get it, I get it! Wow, look to other puppet fans for a little inspiration and let the negativity and nay-saying floooood right in! I am not Hollywood, I'm just looking for some personal one-on-one feedback for myself to ponder to reflect on with a unique opportunity. I won't make the same...

    A National level? (shakes head) Funny, I thought France was a nation. Then again, I've been told by Americans that Canada's not a country either. C'est la vie.

    I get the picture. See, the whole point of this thread was to hopefully gather some feedback which consisted more of shooting down the whole idea from the beginning. Some suggested angles to take on what people would want to watch or find interesting. I think the other person was right - this...

    Well, I wouldn't say that negativity from 2-3 people constitues this not working out. I just assumed with all of the puppet builders and puppeteers who post here that it may be interesting to get some feedback from fans who are more than just passively involved in the craft. There are other...

    Worst TMS guest stars

    Are you telling me that a skimpy outfit on a woman consitutes an episode that should be banned and makes the said woman wearing it on of the worst guest stars ever? Whoo! I'm not directing this at anyone in particualr, but if this is the case than it's my feeling that some people gotta...

    Chances are great that this'll be on the French channels here in Canada.

    What was the last DVD you bought and why?

    Skeeter is a prime example. Throw in another girl. Make her, I dunno, Scooters' sister? That way, y'know her name is derivitave. Oh, and make her like sports. That'll win us some PC brownie point fer sure.

    What was the last DVD you bought and why?

    That's the problem with too many female characters. All too often they get the short end of the stick when it comes to creativity in pop culture. They get thrown in as an after-thought, or a just as token female character for demographics' sake.

    C'est Les Muppets Showue!

    Well, that's a running gag found all over American pop culture. A cliche started likely by a popular sub-culture. But with every cliche, there's a grain of truth buried there. French humor is very exagerated and visual. Absent from irony, mimes, clowns, pratfalls, etc. are very prominent, as...

    Theoretical Focus Group - New Show

    Okay, folks. Let's say there was going to be a new prime time comical show involving puppets. A Sketch show type of thing, if you would. NOT A NEW MUPPET SHOW - just to make this point very, very clear. Now producers these days don't like to get crazy with budgets, but let's say a small...

    C'est Les Muppets Showue!

    Well, French humor is sooooo different from English humor. Or American humor for that matter. Or Canadian (which is basically English with American accents themed often and heavily to poke jibes at the entire U.S. culture). Hoo-boy.

    You mean your opinion was wrong? I still don't understand. What was wrong with-the-episode?
