Yes, the promo videos are cool and i give them points for doing a promotion tied in with the theme of the Muppets having to get a certain number of fan contributions to acheive a goal, but aside from that i'm really very "meh" on the whole concept and think it actually makes Muppets and their...

:50 sec preview of opening number. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_vwYsWFSzM This one very much feels Henson-esque in style/direction.

For those of you who missed seeing Kevin on Nightline, they dropped that Kevin will be on Good Morning America tomorrow (now this) morning.

Not much news has been reported about this (on Henson news sites or elsewhere) but the last issue of Farscape Comics (Issue 24) which came out this last week is the final issue of the series' run. According to co-author KRAD, "Basically, we -- Rockne, Henson, me, BOOM! -- wanted to go out on a...

A new one-minute commercial for "The Muppets" is airing with lots of not-seen yet clips (it's getting to the point now though where enough spoilers is enough...save stuff for the theatre!!!) I'll refer to it as the "Step One..." ad. It's not online yet but given that i saw it on Disney Channel...

Cheeze Pleeze is a Dr. Demento-ish type weekly half hour syndicated radio show that delights in playing the "wacky, warped and weird". The Muppets often get quite a few shout outs in the hosts' banter and they've played Muppet related tracks before but this week, is their Muppet episode...

Some of us have it happen all the time - for no reason, out of the blue, a random memory will pop into one's head that hadn't been thought about for years until it just suddenly appeared for no apparent reason that day. So here's a thread for 'em. Don't necessarily have to be Muppet related...

In the early-mid 90's i was heavily involved with Phoenix's major underground arts theatre Planet Earth Theatre. Besides the theatre itself we also had lots of spin-off side projects like a late night cabaret, restaurant murder mystery dinner theatre, and a late nite cable access show called...

Cheeze Pleeze, a radio show playing the wild, warped, and weird is featuring three tracks from the classic album Susan Sings Songs From Sesame Street this weekend. cheezepleeze.com lists stations the show airs on - if you catch this before 8am mountain Sunday, you can listen online at kwss.org

Okay, so anyone who knows me can probably guess what kind of day i've had and how it's been spent! My major "non-Henson" fandom, One Life to Live's cancellation (as well as All My Children's) was officially announced today. I've put together a Save OLTL site - which is mainly a way for people...

This must have come out before the release of the current issue almost a month ago, but just discovered it: Co-author K.R.A.D. and artist Will Sliney give an indepth interview about the Farscape Comics. Very cool read since for one thing i don't think there's been a major interview on this...

"You can never find a cab when you need one" - Pops, The Great Muppet Caper Being a moderator is not easy and often the work they do isn't as appreciated as it should be. While the membership of the Muppet Central Forum appreciates the work they do when they do it, it's become increasingly...

Since i took up the task of heading up the MC Forum Awards, i reviewed past years' awards and noticed something. The Lifetime Achievement Award is the one category that's different than the others in that it's more a historical award compared to the rest of them that honors the last year...

After much wondering, speculating, and general hand-wringing over whether or not they'd be broadcast this year, CBS will indeed air the ceremony on June 19.

I know we used to do something similar to this but (a) i couldn't find the previous thread (b) this is done a little differently anyway. This thread is for Survivor-like community polls of various things among the Muppet/Sesame/Henson spectrum - a last-one-standing round with the goal of...

Remember Chris Alban? The preteen kid who was on SST as a regular cast member in the mid 90s (often in scenes with Lexine and Tarah?) He talks about his greatest fear during his time working on the show - that he would be discoverd as an undocumented immigrant. Very interesting read...

Okay, there's been a wide variety of major and minor characters on SST over the decades - but what are those super rare characters (modern or classic) that you would have loved to see used more? For classic characters, my top choice is Salvador Dada. That was just one of Jim's all-time...

Congratulations to all the nominees for the Seventh Muppet Central Forum Awards. Regardless of which ones ultimately are chosen as this year's winner, the following list is made up of those who have been recognized by their fellow forum members as deserving of recognition! 29 of this year's...

Part of the fun of commercials are all the bad or overdoing-it actors that sometimes get their 15 minutes of fame. Those wonderful "where's the beef" and "I've fallen and can't get up" moments. What are some of your faves? Right now i'm partial to the lady in the Colonial Penn commercials -...

Was going over my tape collection and it looks like the only copy i have of Episode 4135 (season 38 premiere - Elmo and the Bookaneers) is the original version. Was wondering - after Sesame Workshop removed the Chris Brown "See the Signs" segment, what did they replace it with? Did they put a...
