    Muppets at Macy's Thanksgiving Parade

    Indeed. And I also agree with everyone that it seems like NBC intentionally(least for us on the West coast viewing) didnt show much of any of the Sesame float/song or Kermit balloon. In fact this is the first year in ages that I saw so little screen time given. What gives?

    New Pics: Jason Segel and the Muppets at the L.A. movie set

    Well to me Kermit is always defined best by the contour of Whitmire's hand, and Walter does appear to have a similar sort of thin fabric wrapping to his head and face(meaning it's easier to see the creases and contour of the puppeteer's hand, than say a Fozzie or Bunsen) You're right about how...

    New Pics: Jason Segel and the Muppets at the L.A. movie set

    Oh man I am loving this coverage, and find it hard not to follow every little step of the movie. I like how already the main characters are prominently featured. Oh I couldn't agree more. From the "Kermit and Fozzie talk to Cows" Muppet Movie extra and the gang walking through downtown New...

    Muppets at Macy's Thanksgiving Parade

    Oh I love the look of modern day Sonic, be it Sonic Adventure through the latest incarnation or even the 2002 cartoon. But man, a Nintendo float would be seriously cool. I cant go ANYWHERE without seeing Nintendo/Mario/Donkey Kong characters(today Nintendo had a huge E3 like game center/kiosk at...

    Muppets at Macy's Thanksgiving Parade

    Anyone know if there's any good Sesame Street or Muppet footage from Macy's Thanksgiving Parade on youtube or elsewhere? I just found a few clips, but they were really bad quality or filmed off someone's tv

    Weinstein rolls with Fraggle Rock movie

    I refuse to ever see Airbender, Garfield1 or 2, Chipmunks 1 or 2, Speedracer, Dragonball Evolution, or any of these other abomination efforts. However SOMETIMES they get it right. Like Addams Family(the first one) which to me hit it out of the park. I agree Popeye was rather good. As for odd...

    Muppets at Macy's Thanksgiving Parade

    Was there any Muppet appearances? I swear they showed the Kermit float for a split second, and the Sesame float performance was cut shorter than normal. Does NBC have it in for the Muppets? I didnt expect there to be Muppet Show puppets showing up, but still...it seems more was made to do about...

    Muppet marathons past and present

    Im surprised one of Disney's channels never aired a Muppet related marathon, or even in the early to mid 1990's when they were running Fraggle Rock on the Disney channel. Maybe they can finally have a Muppet marathon next year

    Cookie Monster makes SNL audition tape on YouTube

    Ha, I caught that blink-and-you-miss-it scene! Trivia: FAO Schwarz is the first time since 1983 a Muppet shop has been in New York City: http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Muppet_Stuff I hope they follow through with expanding the store to various Disney parks. Also, I remember my mall had a...

    Cookie Monster makes SNL audition tape on YouTube

    I have faith kids are finally growing tired of the red menace, and not falling for the marketing brainwashing of "elmo this/elmo that" thats had a monopoly on Sesame Street since the mid 1990's. I was at the mall shopping with family today, and this little 2 year old girl was upset/sad that...

    Theories why Bear came to an end

    Just curious if anyone had any theories as to why the Bear character/Noel Macneil, the characters and the whole franchise was terminated by Disney? Not only is the main show gone, as well as any other spinoffs, but even the character and merchandise itself is no more. From 1997 til the early...

    Cookie Monster makes SNL audition tape on YouTube

    Man news of this Cookie thing with video footage is EVERYWHERE on the tabloid news shows on tv, the blogs, news websites, etc. Total viral! Lets hope it adds up to facebook likes and youtube views. Dude, SNL Digital Shorts with Andy Samberg. Ive been a fan of SNL since the late 80's and those...

    Cookie Monster makes SNL audition tape on YouTube

    Oh Frogboy, as a live long Muppet/Sesame/all things Henson fan like you, just on that level itd be a crazy dream come true. You saw how excited the audience got, the gasps and claps when Kermit, Fozzie and Animal showed up in late 2004. And as a fan of SNL, I love unorthodoxed guests. Cookie's...

    Weinstein rolls with Fraggle Rock movie

    Oh I was just teasing Dr Tooth. I see a lot of movies that have people questioning my sanity. What confuses me, is the series is called "Avatar the last airbender", so to have its name stricken because of James Cameron is so odd. Especially for fans of the show. "well see, Im a fan of the...

    Me and My Monsters

    Oh I love New Zealand accents. I mean Flight of the Conchords/Eagle Vs Shark, enough said. I think maybe the backstory is maybe the mother met the father while vacationing or working in New Zealand? I'd love to see full episodes, I really liked the clips I saw online. I swear though, that's...

    Cookie Monster makes SNL audition tape on YouTube

    Oh Eric is totally flawless with the Muppet characters, and also with Grover. Rudman's Cookie sounds and acts just like them. I need to see footage of the Muppets Ahoy! performances of the signature Muppets by other performers, but I do fear Goelz someday retiring as I am not sure someone...

    Cookie Monster makes SNL audition tape on YouTube

    I doubt it, least not all the time. Many Muppets and Sesame Muppets appear routinely on day time and night time talk shows, as well as game shows and other programming in which the audience can see the performer but the camera stays panned up. (especially easier in the editing room) The media...

    Cookie Monster makes SNL audition tape on YouTube

    Oh man, I wasn't expecting this! It's very cool to see Sesame doing exclusive youtube viral content like the Muppets. By itself, this is a seriously good spoof of SNL. SNL of course while long lampooning Muppets, had real Muppets on in 1975-1976, and in december 2004 with Kermit, Fozzie and...

    Do You Know Muppet Fans In Real Life?

    Oh even just in passing....people who at least have one or two Muppet dvds in their collection, perhaps even Fraggle Rock. People who have one Muppet related article of clothing or merchandise. But people's eyes do light up when they see you wearing Muppet stuff, its nice. Im glad too...
