    For that original pilot bonus feature, is that going to be Sex and violence from 1974?

    Relationships

    Yeah it's odd to know people yougner than me married with kids. Are relationships overrated? Coming from someone(me) who couldnt even get a girlfriend til I was 26(Im 27 now) it is something I have wanted since Regan was president. It just so happens that in this society, girls are groomed to...

    Relaunching The Muppets: A New Plan

    As someone like me who has nothing but utter contempt and disgust for all that is the Disney world order, I like this theory....except for the fact it would be Disney behind the idea to begin with. to me Muppet Oz was the biggest embarassment in the Muppet's 50 years, so Im hoping it isnt...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    A Hunter S thompson spoof would rock! Fear and Loathing in Oz! Man, where was the movie spoofs? I mean if they are ognna do a classic retelling in a cheap telefilm way, why not? I think they vaguely referenced Kill bill and The Village, but that was about it. But yeah, poppy fields...would the...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    I agree with a lot of what you said...it is sad innocence is lost so early and kids are having to be exposed to a lot of crap and grow up so fast. Then again, kids are overall more aware these days. Can their minds process all this stuff tho? See, my problem with MWOOz is that there is no way...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    I love New York Jewish comedy! But its funny how when people think black, they automatically think urban yo wassup hip hop. I didnt get that vibe at all from MWOOz. Yeah, because Muppet Show: Sex and violence, Land of gorch(one episode was about doign drugs, another one was about something...

    Are these new characters?

    Good to hear the new series will have other Bear muppets, I thought it was just going to be Bear himself int he real world, ala the Uncle Matt segments in Fraggle Rock.

    How will you watch Muppet Oz?

    I realize now I shouldnt have watched it...my views of the Disney owned Muppet era have somehow managed to fall even further than humanly possible.

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    "the horror...the horror"-Dr Bunsen Honeydew toward the end. This is without a shadow of a doubt the most embarassing, horrific, and grotesque excuse for a Muppet production ever. It was literally like watching a car accident replayed over and over. Maybe it was the beheadings...seeing...

    Disney's plan to relaunch the Muppets

    Wow, now this is a massive whopper of a scoop article...this should be front page stuff. In my eyes, Disney has a massive hill to climb to prove to the fans...some of this stuff sounds ambitious so we'll see. "Despite the frantic schedule, Disney says it is taking things slowly. It estimates...

    Heh, anyone who doesnt count Sesame, Bear in the Big Blue House, or Fraggle Rock as Muppets is only kidding themselves:) Thanks for the heads up man...so cool to have both franchises on one toy company!

    Any news on the remaining Muppet releases?

    MuppetCentral's figure listing still lists the Penguin 2 pack as an online exclusive, but wasn't that idea canned? Hmmmm....yeah its weird, it's almost summer and there really is no reamining Muppet figure release news. Too bad really.

    Ken Lilly Stepping Down

    Ken was the one that went out of his way to spearhead the whole thing with the direct communication of fans. This was the first ever direct fan to company figure line.

    Were Disney's lawyers at odds with Muppets' Oz?

    Either way, this project was doomed from the getgo even when it was in JHC hands...so I can't blame Disney on this one. I can only wait til Friday and hope it's somewhat entertaining.

    How will you watch Muppet Oz?

    Like dental surgery...you go in expecting it won't be very plesant, but hoping there is a few things that arent completely horrible. Sorry, it just feels like the early to mid 90's with this classic telling retale. It feels like Muppet fans will accept any sort of production as long as it has...

    Fozzie Bear on Jimmy Kimmel Friday May 13

    I think they just had Fozzie as a play on names with Ozzie Osbourne as a guest. I cannot stand that bumbling old rocker or his pathetic reality show...such a passing fad. And people consider Muppets old nostalgia. It looked as if Fozzie was being accosted metaphorically when Ozzie was repeatedly...

    JHC planning Dark Crystal sequel

    Given JHC sold us fans out and souled out what made them the JHC company, this is glorious news. And oh do I wish puppetry and animatronics would come back. Green screen can get a bit overbearing at times(look at how lame the Jedi special editions cenes look) I Don't think this would be a...
