    R.I.P. Tony Geiss (1924-2011)

    I'm not sure if anybody has heard about this yet on here, but veteran Sesame Street songwriter as well as the screenwriter of Follow That Bird, Tony Geiss, passed away either last night or this morning, perhaps even earlier, I can't seem to find any news articles about it. Regardless, may he...

    Is Letters to Santa airing on NBC this year?

    Has anyone heard anything about Letters to Santa airing on NBC next December? I tried checking NBC's website but couldn't find anything... other TV listing sites weren't much help either. Is this special headed to the Island of Misfit Christmas Specials already?

    Oscar and Moishe Oofnik in New Orleans

    I wish these guys would come up to the NY/Philly area to do something. Carol and Gilles Ben-David bounce off each other really well, I'd probably enjoy them in person too much. :) http://blogs.jta.org/philanthropy/article/2010/11/09/2741662/oscar-the-grouch-moishe-oofnik-and-me

    I need some serious advice...

    I hate to come to MC with my personal problems but I am really at a loss with this decision right now. I am a freshman in the midst of my first semester of college and, while I do like the school, I'm not completely satisfied and am struggling a bit more than I anticipated. I had to withdraw...

    Well this is an interesting turn of events...

    This sounds a lot better than the CGI/live-action films but on the same hand it doesn't seem like something that could really be the same without the signature characters. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/exclusive-warner-bros-buys-pitch-32725

    Winter clothes for puppets?

    I know it's a little early to be thinking about Christmas but I've been on that "new puppet high" the past couple days and December is almost here after all. ;) I really want to get Santa hats, scarves and other assorted winter attire for my puppets. Can anybody recommend a good site to get...

    The line between puppetry and ventriloquism

    This thread has to be done because I don't know if anybody else gets this as much as I do. Ever since high school when I got my bird puppet from Axtell with the bird arm illusion, people have always been asking me about me being a ventriloquist. All the time I have people asking me to attempt...

    Are Blu-ray/DVD combo packs worth buying if you don't own a Blu-ray player?

    So, I don't own a Blu-ray player and doubt I will for a while. I feel a bit conflicted when it comes to Blu-ray/DVD combo packs, perhaps someone who owns one of these sets can help me out. Are Blu-ray/DVD combos worth the money I don't own a Blu-ray player or should I just pass and get the DVD...

    How time flies...

    Can anybody else believe it's been five years today since the first season of The Muppet Show came out on DVD? I still remember doing to buy it on release day like it was just yesterday the summer before eighth grade. Insane how time goes by like that.

    Underrated Movies

    Might as well try to balance out the negativity in other thread. :shifty::) Gremlins 2: The New Batch, the rare Hollywood sequel that sweeps the floor with the movie that preceded it. I'd say it's Joe Dante's masterpiece and the plot is, in fact, very strong especially for such a Looney...

    Overrated Movies

    What movies out there do you think are overrated? Here are some of my picks. 1. Up in the Air Was I watching the same movie the critics were? All I saw in it a typical romantic comedy with a sadder ending in this movie and nothing more. Yeah... this is an awe-inspiring epic, Gene. The only...

    Anyone here going to Comic Con?

    Hey, I'm sorry if it's wrong for me to post this but I need someone do to a favor for me... You see, I am a collector of Hallmark Christmas ornaments (expect a thread on Hallmark from me next month after the Premiere! :) ) but I only collect certain ornaments every year (the Muppets, Looney...
