    Sesame Workshop Trying To Have It Both Ways(Bert/Ernie issue)

    Ernie has said he was six? Well there is absolutely nothing kidlike about Bert. to me it's kind of silly to keep certain characters developmentally stuck. I just am not a fan of retconning. Making Rosita's dad lose a leg fighting in Iraq? Gonzo is an "alien"? NOPE. Don't accept it. they mess...

    New Regency Lands ‘Fraggle Rock’ Feature Rights Auction

    Yeah...why make all the viral videos of HA(henson alternative) stuff on the JHC channel, but NOT A SINGLE Red or Uncle Matt viral video? JHC, come on man. You own the rights to it. You clearly have rebuilt a couple of the puppets. Why not take them around LA or a soundlot like you have with HA...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets on WWE Raw SuperShow October 31

    That's the problem. While the g rated family demographic WWE now caters to works with the Muppets...it killed it for real fans. Im not saying I liked all the "extreme" stuff(i hate all the gross type stuff a lot of indie promotions aping ECW were about) and Im not saying WWF was always...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets on WWE Raw SuperShow October 31

    Not to mention the skits! My gosh...its all SNL mad tv comedy backroom comedy skits now. Wheres the actual wrestling? Anyone remember WCW circa 1996? spot after spot, lucha libre/japanese/technical/high flying style...tons of matches, awesome outfits, the NWO invasion angle. Same with WWF by...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets on WWE Raw SuperShow October 31

    Sounded like there was quite a lot of prominent Muppetyness. I have mixed feelings on this. As even though I could give a doodle about wrestling now days, as a former huge fan/smark, it's kind of depressing seeing the WWE Raw show and overall WWE brand become 100% kiddy stuff. I agree, the...

    Sesame Workshop Trying To Have It Both Ways(Bert/Ernie issue)

    I admit, some of the official nostalgic kid's shirts go a bit too far. Like the new Ninja Turtles/April O'neil pizza one. That one is so far over the line. And the Elmo mustache one...whoah. The thing though tooth, Bert/Ernie=gay is not some drunken frat boy/family guy meme. It's an important...

    Sesame Workshop Trying To Have It Both Ways(Bert/Ernie issue)

    Well I do believe the performers when they say Bert and Ernie was conceived as a response to the Odd Couple paradigm. But the way they go out of their way to shoot down the rumors, when they know Bert and Ernie are a kind of adopted icon to many gay people is...I don't know...just odd. And then...

    Here's your Walter Plush

    Given there is no leaked photos, no showing off of prototypes, no preorders on entertainment life, and this stuff just shows up when it shows up...it's possible around the time of the film disney stores, parks and online will release a ton of stuff and all our worrying will be for nill. Least...

    Disney Store Muppet Merchandise Released

    It always seems like the kids movies I like the most always has the least(or little to no) merchandise. Not trying to put down shrek, cgi over live action films, cars, etc but the films that connect personally to me(monsters vs aliens, up, emperor's new groove, fantasia 2000, and im assuming the...

    New Regency Lands ‘Fraggle Rock’ Feature Rights Auction

    JHC should have just made a direct to dvd 45 minute Fraggle "movie" or special in 2007 or 2008 and let it be that. I will never watch, nor let my kid watch a cgi over live action film. They're horrible horrible horrible. I don't mind all cgi films, but just the site of films like Smurfs, Hop...

    Here's your Walter Plush

    Ha! Well if they had a Sarah Marshal action figure set, one would have to wonder if Jason's figure was anatomically correct

    Influx of new members

    Aw true, true. This is more of a hidden tavern through a narrow alleyway in a big city. Is there any other major hub for muppet fans, or is it mostly just people commenting on facebook?

    Muppet Movie Clip: "Coming With Us"

    I wonder if there is some truly crazy rare items in his room. Would be interesting if he had any 50's-60's items, or cast and crew only stuff. Still they should have written in a scene where he has his own blog.

    Why people dislike modern Sesame Street

    Modern Sesame=less Elmo, more Murray, INSANELY cool guest stars, SMART writing that pokes fun at topical stuff(the disasterous spiderman broadway play, fox news, big bird trying to be bought out, etc) Modern Sesame ROCKS.

    Sesame Workshop Trying To Have It Both Ways(Bert/Ernie issue)

    So, I've been realizing how duplicitous Sesame Workshop is. They continually release "OMG, Bert and Ernie are NOT representative of gays!" statements... Sesame Workshop has aggressively tried to shut down the bert/ernie gay thing, issuing endless statements since the 90's(some compiled here)...

    Influx of new members

    A question I'm sure is on everyone's mind: has there been a noticeable increase in people checking out MC or signing up to the forums? It seems like there'd be a tidal wave of people checking it out. I wish Phil had the money to promote the site more. I hope people been discovering here, mindset...

    Here's your Walter Plush

    Yeah my local Disney store personnel(we have two stores here) seem clueless. They weren't even aware of any Muppet merch coming. An instore Muppety event sounds super cool! Yeah thats like a perfect exact likeness. But I prefer smaller plushes due to limited space. So if they make smaller bean...
