Hmm, we might not be thinking of the same game, Kate. The one I'm referring to was made around the time the movie was released, in 1982. Info's on Muppet Wiki: just look under Dark Crystal merchandise, for "The Dark Crystal (computer game)." I played it once (Sierra re-released it on CD-ROM...

Excellent...in fact, the magic mirror I was watching Richard and the others through appeared to be the one hanging in the great hall at Castle Daventry in the King's Quest games. And Roberta Williams, KQ's creator, also worked on the Dark Crystal computer game, so there's certainly a...

Oh? How can this thread be the wrong thread? ;)

Yeah, let's stay away from the really personal stuff, before one of the mods comes in and closes the thread.

What if Richard Hunt had been able to do more directing on Fraggle Rock and other Muppet works? (Personally, I think he'd have been next in line to direct a Muppet movie.)

Let's face it, gang, anything that was a simple kid pleasure when we were kids (and when our parents and grandparents were kids) is now a treacherous health hazard. But honestly, in the grand scheme of things, I think we have much more to worry about whenever we eat improperly cooked meat and...

Very nice about the lamb...and the name reminds me of one scene in the FR episode "Capture the Moon:" Ma Gorg: (to Junior) Oh, my precious, little lambie-pie... Pa Gorg: Tell lambie-pie to put a lid on it! Great line; I'll bet Jerry had fun playing the cantankerous old windbag types. I'm...

Beige: Where's Nora? Scooter: She's off meeting with her little sister. Erin: Yeah, she's transferring some cookie order forms. Storyteller: This entire dorm is going to have a terminal sugar high by the time April gets here... (elsewhere, Nora is meeting with Heather - who looks like Nora...

Nora: (on phone) It's actually Scouting Girl, but close enough. (scribbles order on notepad) I see...Heather's going to be busy. (hangs up) Guys, I'm really going to need help! Scooter: (looking at one batch) Let's see...one each of Orange Delight, Mint Dreams, Coconut Swirl and Batty...

Nora: (checking phone message) Hmm, message from Kate. (starts to scribble on notepad) All right. (picks up and dials) Hi, Kate, it's Nora returning your call. Your cookie order is one box each of Mint Dreams, Orange Delights, Coconut Swirls and Batty Butterscotch...okay, right. I'll tell the...

"Why me, I'm not the strong one." "No, you're the stupid one!" Great line, so it bears repeating. And it's really fulfilling, in a devious sort of way, to see Scooter push Link off the balcony (bet Richard loved that). And with all those lines about pumpernickel, crumpets, the Scarlet...

Ouch...:concern: It's like I said...a massage therapist could have made a small fortune working on the Muppeteers' shoulders and upper backs alone. In fact, I wonder if the crew ever had a massage therapist on standby on the set?

'Fraid so, Kate. Even in our liberal academic atmosphere, the prof has a say in things. Oh, I should have something to chew on from TMS and maybe the movies. And remember, I'm going to be tracing this stuff back through the history of vaudeville, and old comedies, or something to that effect...

Oh, I read the story, Kate - after all, I'm in my dorm room as opposed to my parents' house...;) Anyway, I went to see my professor this morning, and I chatted with him about the concept of a "Food and the Muppets" paper. I have to turn in a proposal on Monday, and I'm debating the "history...

Scooter: We're gonna miss you, Tony. Nora: Yeah, come back soon, won't you? (a few boxes of Scouting Girl cookies are pressed into Tony's hands as a parting gift) (later, Scooter and Nora are back in room 7, munching on more cookies) Scooter: So Storyteller and Beige have gone to bed...

(That's cool, man, don't fret about the number.) Nora: (on phone with Heather) All right, you've got them...so one each of Pumpkin Patch, Devil's Food Fudge and Batty Butterscotch...yes, you heard me, just one each. And don't you dare try to sneak any Licorice Splits in there, understand...

Erin: Thanks, Ed...oh, but the block number for Richard's quilt is 5765. So it's close, anyway. Scooter: And we'll get the tea off to Storyteller and Beige...and thanks again for helping with the cookies! Nora: Let's see...Pumpkin Patch, Devilfood Fudge, Batty Butterscotch...yeah, I think she's...

(in doorway to lab) Erin: So that's what it was - good thing none of us has eaten any cottage cheese lately. Scooter: I just wonder if it worked. Nora: Only one way to know. (A box of Scouting Girl Mint Dreams is set on a table in the lab, well within reach of Cookie Monster, and the three...

Oooh, Steve-o's hit the big three-O! (Sorry, didn't mean to rub it in - I'm only 7.5 years away from that milestone.) Anyways, happy birthday to the Man of the MuppetCast!

Erin: (typing at computer) Cookie Monster doesn't eat cookies anymore? Something is amiss in the universe. (pause) How are your red spots, Storyteller? Storyteller: (from hut) Red and itchy...and Beige's tail is still really ticklish. Beige: So much for the diagnosis of mild Pebble Pox...and...
