    Kermit Swamp Years - Opinions

    Yeah, it did have some decent moments. If you don't compare it to the Heson body of work, it doesn't seem as brutal.

    "Muppets Ahoy!" Stage Show on Disney Cruise Line?

    Exactly. Unless they're a real name, prima donnas can get off their tushy and throw some aglaecide in the kiddie pool!

    How do I get a job as a Muppeteer?

    I always like to use apolitical, atopical and ageless bizarre bufoonery as a base for my humor.

    What was the last DVD you bought and why?

    LOST: Season 2 Why? Cuz it's the beat show on TV right now. I call it Party of Forty Eight.

    Puppets Up! Festival was great!

    Great Seeing you there! Great seeing you there, Chenmeister! Albeit really brief! Your window display really grabbed people's attention. Nice blog, glad you and your family had such a great time - mine sure did! Did you stick around for the adult cabaret? My site has some new clips on it...

    "Muppets Ahoy!" Stage Show on Disney Cruise Line?

    Nor should it. Work is work. A gig is a gig. Take'em or leave'em. It shouldn't matter to the performers, either. ;)

    Kermit Swamp Years - Opinions

    No Problem! But about Swamp Years... I enjoy puppets, Muppets, all that good stuff. And when it comes down to it, calling The Swamp Years the worst Muppet movie is like calling Ringo the poorest Beatle.

    Kermit Swamp Years - Opinions

    Well, it's not called "The Muppets: Kemit's Swamp Years". And the word 'Muppet' isn't uesd in it. That's to their credit. I mean, obviously it's a Muppet project. Kermit. Duh. But this at least gives the project breathing room as not to have the weight and pressure of being another Muppet...

    "Muppets Ahoy!" Stage Show on Disney Cruise Line?

    Actually, BEAR is spot-on. It wasn't another jab at Disney, though. Just small-talk.

    TMS Season 2 Box Set - 2007 Release?

    Actually, I think you've just proven my point! But to be fair, what films/shows do you show people to try to get them into the Muppets? I feel 'The Muppets' work better when they're not necessarily attempting to target 'childen'. It been well-documented (and is obvious to its fans) that the...

    Why wouldn't they? Others do. Believe me ;)

    Kermit Swamp Years - Opinions

    That scene, and where Kermit sees a movie for the first time were the scenes I was refering to as moving. I would almost guess that it's meant for the Sesame Street age demographic. I'm sure anyone under 5 would really like it. I do believe they put an honest effort into it, trying something...

    ELMO on "Today" Show 9-6-05

    Thank heavens for that. There were only four of us at my audition. Jeff was nice. Kevin was asleep at the wheel. The others were like "What we have in mind will ka-ching ka-ching ka-ching!" I swear I saw dollar signs in their left eye with mouse-ears in their right.

    "Muppets Ahoy!" Stage Show on Disney Cruise Line?

    I've heard that Disney makes its entertainers do ship chores on their cruise lines when not performing.

    TMS Season 2 Box Set - 2007 Release?

    Nonsense! I believe that they're current lack of hipness is due to the fact that Disney owns them now. Yuck. Had they kept working in the direction of IAVMMCM with NBC & MGM, they'd be well on their way back.

    "America's Next Muppet" mini-series in development

    That proves (not just) my Disney-killed-The-Muppets theory. NBC made IAVMMCM Which IMO is superior to OZ. It's as good as Muppets from Space. because while it doesn't have as much heart, it makes up for it by being funnier. Maybe Disney will just let the Muppets continue to gather dust. Then...

    Kermit Swamp Years - Opinions

    On paper, it was a great idea. Overall, I'd say that it's inconsistent. There are some amusing moments, and some that are genuienly moving. However, there are also moments which make you wonder where the quality-control went in casting and writing. "This got approved?" I thought more than...
