    Bringing Back the Bells...

    Can i suggest something .. www.tinychat.com - u need to have twitter or facebook to use it but people can hear others on it or see them all in little windows if they have webcams. Text chat too. Would be cool to see and hear everyone ringing their bells, or just text chat like the old days.

    Empire acquires rights to Jim Henson screenplay

    It would be a great thing for the Hensons to do rather than anyone else, but without being able to use the Mups it aint ever gonna happen.

    The Muppets launch Xmas No.1 bid

    Yes it looks like it will be a physical as well as download release and its 12/1 to be Xmas Number Two. No1 will (as always) be our X-Factor (American Idol type show) winner.

    Bringing Back the Bells...

    I'm in - i remember the old days on Delphi chat doing this. Perhaps its possible to sort out a temporary chat room to do this again like we did it before - perhaps even with audio so we can hear people ringing bells.

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets on NBC's Christmas in Rockefeller Center

    Yeah i heard some local affiliates got an exta hour pre-show and thats when the EM were on, the actual main show just had the main Muppet gang singing "Most Wonderful Time" which looked pre-recorded earlier and inserted to me. Still great though. It's lovely to see them on something like...

    Jim Hill: Muppets Officially Back

    Yes i agree with that, the viral videos are fantastic and a great indication that all is going very well. I don't think the comics or Tonner Dolls etc have a big bearing on things, thats just fan fluff - its really the mass media stuff that counts. It is very clever indeed, although i would...

    Jim Hill: Muppets Officially Back

    Are you joking DW? He spent the first few years of Disneys ownership dooming them to failure, pretty much laughing at the whole idea of Disney owning Muppets (basically calling it Eisners "pet" project and they have no hope now) and teasing a lot of what the Count said, though its true he...

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    If u do the pound to dollar conversion and then take off the import tax and a bit for the distributors cut then you do come to around $450 or thereabouts. So its not wildly different - the main increase really is in the international distributor. If they manage to get it down to $400 then good...

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    Usually the stuff to the UK is direct shipped from China exactly the same as the USA.. so extra shipping isn't exactly a large amount by any means. Import taxes yes ... but only about $40 per item. So i'd say that while its right not to do a straight pounds to $ conversion, the US price won't...

    What if ALF met the Sesame Street gang ?

    I think ALF is just about the only Muppet that could shut Elmo up! But yes, Sesame Street was featured in the ALF pilot along with the theme tune - and i also believe that Jim Henson joked at a hollywood dinner for his agent that ALF and Miss Piggy might work together, lol. Jim and ALF had...

    eFX Collectibles to produce Muppet Replicas

    Before these go on pre-order i hope they can work out what wil happen for international folk - whether we can join in the payment plan or whether we just have to contact the international distributor. I am a bit worried how many of these will make it international if only 500 are made.

    Where is Steve Whitmire Petition

    When you see a Muppet performance it should be the best there is, there is nobody else at all with such a good reputation for quality. I've seen web/cable TV shows that have been Dave Goelz under a table holding up Gonzo, with one camera and poor lighting, and it was STILL faultless and pretty...
