    Muppet Christmas Carol on SKY TV in HD in Dec

    Unfortunately I have a feeling it won't be that HD, just slightly upscaled, but still, that's a good enough way to start advent as far as I'm concerned. Thanks for the heads up

    Episode 3 of The Walking Dead they're talking about catching frogs to eat and say you'll be glad to have Kermit legs when we run out of food, to which the reply is "I'd rather eat Miss Piggy"

    Steve Whitmire with Avenue Q?

    I settled this with her by using a photo line-up lol. Turns out it was actually Nigel Plaskitt who gave the talk and spoke about his time on MCC and MTI and did a Kermit impression so she just got confused. And there you have it :) Thanks for all your inputs

    Steve Whitmire with Avenue Q?

    Oh no, he wasn't performing. From what I was told he was in charge of the puppets and just gave a little speech about that, all the puppets they use in the show,the costumes, how they're shared between performers, and evidently who he was. Sorry for any confusion there.

    Steve Whitmire with Avenue Q?

    Apparently they know because he said it was him and did the voice. It seems very odd to me too hence why I started the topic. As far as I was aware the only link to the Muppets was the guy who made the puppets once worked at the Muppet Workshop. And Kuriboh Man, I don't think of it as...

    Steve Whitmire with Avenue Q?

    I never knew any muppeteers were involved with Avenue Q, until last night when I was at a party and one of my friends told me "I saw the guy who does Kermit's voice once" She went on to say that he was the puppet master for the show and gave an introductory speech when she saw it before it...

    "The Happytime Murders" premieres August 24, 2018

    I can't remember when I heard about this first or when (but it was definately a fair time ago) But I'd totally forgotten about it until last night when my brother who is sick of hearing about Muppets came to ask me if I'd heard about it. I like the idea. i enjoy it when puppets get "edgy"...

    The Inspirational Quote Thread (Henson productions only please)

    Wasn't sure where to put this and couldn't see anything similar, but I thought this would be a great idea. One of the main things we all agree on as Muppet fans is their emotional strength is one of the main reasons we love them. So this thread is for everyone to write down any quotes they...

    Manhattan Toys Sprocket Now available

    I got all excited when I saw "New Sprocket available" but then I saw the picture. It's a real shame because it looks like quite a nice dog plush. Just not a Sprocket one.

    New UK Muppet T-shirts at ASDA

    The Gonzo one is awful, but i really like the Da Vinci parody one and the London Calling parody is also quite cool. More so when you see the actual thing as I found. Each to their own though.
