I'm just curious about this. Knowing that because many people call Elmo's popularity too much of a good thing, or just plain overexposed, what has Kevin Clash said about all of this? I love Elmo very much and think it is wonderful how he has kept the show fresh (:wisdom: although in all honesty...

Looks like the Kevin Clash documentary could be the next big thing from Sesame Workshop since "The World According to Sesame Street". It looks like it should be a great piece of history. There could be some unexpected surprises us Henson fans have always wanted to see. I must say that Kevin...

Hi, I recently just a got a new Windows 7 system for my computer. Since it is high speed, I've been looking through some of my PC games and found the one for Muppet Treasure Island. I figured that since I enjoyed playing this when I was younger, I would give it another go. Unfortunately, I...

I am regretful for never actually going inside this historic mansion, which even more sadly was the last place where Jim Henson himself worked at. I stood outside the building when I was in NYC in 2001 (two weeks before 9/11), but I din't think I could actually go inside. Now that the company...

I believe that this was a magazine that showcased Sesamestrasse in Germany in 1974. What was written about it? Does anyone have any uploads or scanned images?

After seeing the building for the first time in the documentary, "Henson's Place", I have been very curious about this shop, which is sadly no longer in business. Are there any archival photographs from the shop on Lexington Ave.? Has anyone ever been there before. Also, I know the place had...

It has been confirmed that one of the most beloved Sesame Street illustrators of all time has passed away last week. Michael J. Smollin, the illustrator of "The Monster at the End of This Book" and so many other projects including calendars, toys, colorforms, etc. died at the age of 85. He will...

Once again, the Henson Company has pulled out all the stops this year, not just with the surprising DVD releases, but with a new feature on their website. Enjoy. :)

Here's a set of commercials with Wilkin's and Wontkins I've never seen. I didn't think Jim Henson had a client like this. But the best part of it is that they are all in color. Check 'em out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yj8pQNrt2tU

Hi. I know that this is probably a very unusal thread, but there is something that I need help with that is Henson related. I'm not sure if someone like Phil Chapman could help me but I don't know who else to turn to. It's about a program I'm looking for that aired years ago and I don't know who...

There is a book in the fan collectibles that I'm trying to purchase from the seller. I've sent them an email twice and have not heard from them. Does this mean that the item has been sold? P.S. The book I'm trying to purchase is "Miss Piggy's Treasure of Art Masterpieces from the Kermitage...

Here are some Muppet books that I am trying to find: -The Muppets at Sea (1980) -Fozzie's Big Book of Sidesplitting Jokes (1981) -The Great Muppet Caper: The Making of a Masterpiece (1981) -Miss Piggy's Guide to Life (1981) -Muppet Manners: or the Night Gonzo Gave a Party (1981) -The...

Michael J. Dixon, famous Henson enthusiet like the rest of us, has a new website that will be appearing at some point. So far, he only has the opening page, but judging by the graphics, it looks to be very promising. http://www.michaeljdixon.com

As a Henson enthusiest like the rest of you, there are so many things that I would love to see. Because I enjoy doing tape trades time and time again, there are some stuff that are hard to find that I am still looking for: -The Mike Douglas Show (week-long 1966 appearances) -The Dick Cavett...

Just found this off of Google: http://www.rotostudio.com/projects.aspx?catid=43 Is this supposed to be for the Center of Puppetry Arts in Atlanta, or some other museum? Maybe it's for its own independent museum in it's own way. :smirk:

With the holiday season fast approaching us, I thought that this would be the best time to start a discussion like this on the forum. Many of us right now are getting ready to watch some holiday movies and programs that are either showing up on television or on you VHS/DVD. Of course, with all...

I just came across this link and found a great Muppet treasure from the Henson vaults: http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/chi-talk-muppets-brotmannov16,0,4950155.column Enjoy. :)

Long before Mickey and the gang began appearing around the country on ice skates, there was a stage show in the late-sixties and early-seventies called "Disney on Parade". These shows would travel from coast to coast around America, as well as a few other countries for millions of audiences...

Hiya. Right now I am looking at some stuff that is listed for "Buy it Now" on eBay. Since I have not gotten stuff from that websie in a while, I thought that I would just splurge a little bit. The only thing is, I would really like to try using some discount codes that would help me to spend a...

Just wanted to wish Mr. Frank Oz a Happy Birthday this Memorial Day. If he is reading this (although it might not be likely), I just want to say that you have become an inspiration to Muppet fans and movie lovers everywhere. We love the characters that you have performed through the years and...
