    Dave's Appropriate and Distanced Admirers

    I'm joining this thread, have to say Dave is my favourite Muppeteer, and just such a totally brilliant guy. I have never seen a Gonzo appearance, TV show, movie or anything that i haven't laughed at, and its always such a great moment when you see Dave himself in interviews and Gonzo...

    Gonzo puppet

    I don't like the likeness, but yeah the clothes are great, lol. I don't think i've ever seen a Gonzo "puppet/plush" likeness thats ever come close to the real thing. I thought there were handpuppets back in the 70's, i cant remember. Maybe check the collectibles section.

    Official Henson Podcast

    I just really wish they would have done podcasts (video podcasts even) when they had the Muppets, all those long missed background Muppets that could have made appearances. *sigh* Anyhooo keep up the fantastic work!

    ALF Photo Puppet wish

    I'd never seen that, pretty good likenesss for an unofficial product. I've known another one come up from time to time, a really large soft toy type plush from Russia i think. The head was ok but the body way too fat.

    Miss Piggy on UK TV

    Yet another UK appearance, over 2,000 views for this already, great considering its not from a TV appearance people would have tried to look up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtGYxlePWyE and another one, some behind the scenes clips on this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rotFcrV4JXU...

    Tinseltown News

    It doesn't make much sense to me because it looks quite complex and expensive to shoot so it would have suprised me if they only made one short pilot when they've made the puppets, got the actors, locations, crew. Surely they would have at least done a few of them together even if maybe they...

    Tinseltown News

    I'm not a big fan of the Pig, she irritates the heck outa me sometimes and i've never seen the attraction of the character at all, but i can see why some people like her and the whole diva thing. She just HAMS it up a bit too much for me, she's ok in small doses. UK audiences may be a bit more...

    Miss Piggy on UK TV

    Agreed Craig, i commented to someone at the time how off the voice was. Nice to see you back, i'm a big fan of your work. Hope someone can get this Film24 special online!

    Tinseltown News

    Wud u like to explain why they've just had Piggy on a promotional tour of the UK (their biggest market i believe) and she got booked on about six top shows over two weeks to promote the DVD's, and made the headlines in the biggest newspaper. I think they know Piggy merchandise doesnt sell...

    Muppet Babies on Dvd!For Real!

    I doubt they're legal, but they seem to have done a good job of the production quality. Some other classic shows on there too.

    ALF Photo Puppet wish

    ALF doesn't have an official website, it never happened as you said. There is www.alftv.net which is run by Jerimiah, thats about the most active ALF site right now. I have not seen a poser in person but i have lots of pictures of them at various angles, they look much better than the midget...

    Tinseltown News

    I think it may be a term mainly used in the UK, but i believe it does have some American use as well. What i mean by alternative comedy is any kind of comedy that doesn't take the mainstream route. Satire, spoofs, improv, etc etc. Those kind of shows/acts often use adult humour but it can be...

    I would say neither, its just alternative comedy.

    ALF Photo Puppet wish

    I'm stoked other people would like this - i would buy two (at least!). It'd be an amazing designed photo puppet, especially if they got Terry or ALF's original puppet builders to work on it. I'm not sure whether its worth starting some kind of petition like thing to show the interest in it or...

    Miss Piggy on UK TV

    I only saw the first part as i had to go out. Piggy was revealed on the stage sitting on her own sofa, Sharon then appeared and sat next to Piggy talking about how they were both big divas. Piggy didn't seem to think Sharon could compare to her and apparently ended up giving her the...

    Well i guess Kermies not running the company anymore, lol .... Again this is a spoof on Hollywood. It's the brainchild of two straight guys, lol. I've seen some criticism elsewhere of the writing. I actually thought the writing was ok, and very current for todays popular styles but i can...

    The Muppet Cards

    I think a choice of flash cards or static cards would be the way to go, i liked the test card. It'd be nice to see them back, and yes new ones would be brilliant.
