    Miss Piggy on UK TV

    I know even from articles at the time, but like you and your gfather a lot of us have contacts too. Oz came off the back of the Very Merry Muppet Xmas movie, there was to be a series of Thatcher movies - originally for NBC, including possibly some Valentine's one but it turned out Disney bought...

    Fraggle CD collection arrives October 30

    Good idea, i hope it will be released in the UK what with HIT being an English company and having re-launched Fraggle here. It'd be nice if they brought out any puppets they still have to promote stuff too.

    Spammers at MC...

    Looks automated, posted 15 times over a few hours. I don't get why people spam forums with rubbish, its not as if many people are that fooled by it nowadays and its usually for wierd stuff.

    Miss Piggy on UK TV

    Oz was in pre-production BEFORE Disney bought the Muppets, and the appearances are to promote the DVD's in the UK, which is pretty much the Muppets biggest market. If anything, Disney hasn't ponied up much dough and the Muppets were seen more when owned by the Henson company. Disney are able...

    9" and 12" Fraggle Plushes To Be Available In UK

    I will try to get the pic scanned. They look very similar to the Sababas to me but the Sababas were 10/14" right? These are definitely 9/12". This company is just a distributor so i guess maybe the USA license has passed to someone new.

    9" and 12" Fraggle Plushes To Be Available In UK

    It was announced today in the industry magazine Toy News that a distribution company called ESDEVIUM GAMES will bring 9" and 12" Fraggle and Doozer plushes to the UK. Each of the 12" character coming with a DVD containing 2 episodes of the show. This sounds a bit like the Sababa plushes with...

    The Fate of Muppetvision 3*D

    I support preserving (Henson Legacy etc) but obviously from Disney's side, the parks are a commercial venture and most kids don't know who the Muppets are. That they need to change! They oughta develop it into a more expanded, enhanced Muppets stage show (based around a new show or movie)...

    The Fate of Muppetvision 3*D

    Perhaps now IS time for MV3D to close - yes it's Jim's work but its been around a long time and things need updating from time to time. Disney has loads of new films and shows that should be represented in their parks. However, add to that, Disney should be making more Muppet stuff and...

    Henson.com's New Look & "Henson Alternative"

    Tinseltown looks fantastic, although i'm not too sure of the puppet/human mix in a sitcom. It's been done great before, but that was the 80's mainly - be nice to see a puppet "world" of characters. Eitherway i can't wait to see it though. And yes, its great to see the Muppets being...

    5 Questions for Cheryl Henson

    How has the sale of the Muppets to Disney affected Henson's use of them for archiving and exhibiting purposes? I ask this as the display at the museum in Atlanta is wonderful, and there are mentioned plans to keep the entire past puppet collection there. I'm sure all Muppet enthusiasts feel...

    Your Thoughts: 2007 MDA Telethon with the Muppets

    They stopped about 2 and a half hours ago. Not sure whether there will be more as i didn't see Johnny and Sal, but might have just missed em. Rizzo and Pepe were hosting with a guy called Tom. They were in Tuxes, and at one point they were introducing a dance type act and Pepe came on in the...
