    It's not really those Westboro freakies that bother me as much as the more subversive tactics used by other groups that feel very much the same way but won't publicly admit it. There’s a "Missionaries of Hate" documentary by Vanguard on Hulu right now that talks of pending legislation in Uganda...

    Muppets Lost Promos

    I loves me some Steve! I've been a Muppet fan since before seeing TMM in the theater at the age of 5 and can safely claim uber-fandom for close to all of my 36 years on the planet. I know what clip you're talking about, but I am also aware of your well-noted distain for Steve's Kermit. I’ve...

    Muppets Lost Promos

    Here's the Kermit segment. Still didn't get me interested in watching the program and aside from steering clear of reality TV I'm fairly liberal about what I watch. I've followed my friends' discussions about the program and the somewhat ambiguous ending is pretty much what I expected it...

    The Muppets have a table read for the new "Greatest" Muppet movie

    True, but there was still some camera-mugging here and there throughout the production - like all Muppet shows and movies. I kind of feel the Muppets are among the few characters able to pull it off no matter what the climate of entertainment happens to be at the time. Muppets are all about the...

    Muppets Lost Promos

    I find the Muppet videos to be the best thing about Lost and Steve does a fantastic job. :)

    The Muppets have a table read for the new "Greatest" Muppet movie

    Muppets & the 4th Wall The Muppet Movie was all about breaking the 4th wall. There were so many asides from beginning to end. Kermit spoke to the camera often in statements like,"...if a frog couldn't hop, I'd be gone with the Schwinn" and whatnot. The Great Muppet Caper was a showy as it...

    FS: MR Kermit, Gonzo, and Animal

    There have been some fine dolls made of the Muppets, but this is something entirely different. The original SRP on Kermit was $199, $299 for Gonzo and $399 for Animal. They contain authentic patterns, materials and wire armatures inside. There are several theories for the weak sales of these...

    That's what I've always heard too. :)

    Decline of entertainment?

    The original Law & Order was canceled. The classic and best of all of the series. I actually enjoy most incarnations of the program because they explore different aspects of the legal system. It's not like CSI where they take the same show to a different location, but it finally looks like...

    The Muppet Mindset

    Great article. And Disney's finally waking up and using the classic Muppet logo! In the singular sense as well. ;)

    I agree with that quite a bit! I almost forgot that other problematic fourth group that Bill Maher belongs to (aside from PETA). It's the one I refer to as "toxic atheism". I'm an agnostic, and particular religions do creep me out a bit, but as long as it's not messing with my life I'm okay...

    Postponed: Henson Family Day in Los Angeles - Red, Wilson & Ditch and more

    So does anybody know what officially happened? Did anything go on Saturday or was it completely canceled/postponed? :smirk:

    Decline of entertainment?

    Canceled shows: Law & Order was finally canceled after 20 years. Sure, it was probably time, but they're replacing it with a L.A. version. The very thing that made Law & Order distinct was its N.Y.C. location! I really used to love this show. Classic dramatic television craftsmanship at its...

    Tonner Doll Co. Making KERMIT!

    Oooh! I'm glad they made him. I do wish they'd nail the eye focus on both of them. Such an easy fix that means so much in providing their special spark. Otherwise it's nice work. I like that Kermit's mouth is semi-closed. That subtlety sets him apart from other Kermit sculptures...and there are...

    IAVMMCM - Thoughts?

    Whoopi's VMX God character holds a mug that states "I love NY - more than ever" or something to that extent so it's safe to assume the program was shot after 9/11. The view of the towers from Alternate Piggy's apartment is awkward but I see this as either some sort of NY pride from the...

    The Muppets have a table read for the new "Greatest" Muppet movie

    I understand the dangers of substance abuse, but think you're taking that statement way too much to heart. The Mayhem have always made clever drug references here and there. From the mentions of "organic refreshments" and "skipping a groove" to the band members' demeanor (not to mention Floyd's...

    Ultimately, I support individual decisions, but we’re not all always given all the options. From social policy to health - that’s the problem. Other people are deciding for us. I think clowns are creepy, period. But the problem is not the mascot. Parents need to know the facts and set...

    For those who like Movie Musicals

    You'd probably like this song too. It's from the same musical, but this performance was for former President Bush (41). People forget, but Patti was the original Evita on Broadway. :super:

    For those who like Movie Musicals

    A little over the top with the holiday choices, but a pretty good list nonetheless. I've never liked Kate Capshaw's rendition of Anything Goes (her voice is better suited to shrieking about snakes ;)), but this Indy musical number is beautifully shot. This is actually a rather brilliant song...
