    The Muppet Show Season 3 arrives May 20, 2008

    I guess he wants to see what it tastes like. ;) Why was Piggy smelling the number 2 on the last set? Perhaps the next set will have Gonzo listening to the number 4.

    The Muppet Show Season 3 arrives May 20, 2008

    The side of the box does says "Complete Third Season" (similar to how the side of the second season box said "Complete Second Season"). Also it should be noted that both the first and second seasons were also dubbed "special editions" by Disney. I think it's more of a marketing thing than...

    The Muppet Show Season 3 arrives May 20, 2008

    I should let you know that the artwork is not final and it could be "subject to change" without notice. And as we saw with the season 2 set, the designers like to tweak and change the artwork. I don't think so, but to be honest I don't know – the people I talked with weren't able to give me...

    New behind-the-scenes book to celebrate Fraggle Rock

    Very true. 20 years ago people would have thought you were crazy for even proposing a complete home video release of a television series. It was rare that a television show was commercially released at all (and when it was it was usually just a few random collection of 1-3 episodes on a VHS...

    Has anyone heard of this Henson short film?

    Ripples was a one-minute short film directed by Jim Henson in 1967. The film was produced for the Expo'67 festival in Montreal, Canada. The soundtrack was composed by Raymond Scott, and the man was played by Jon Stone (future Sesame Street writer/director/producer/co-creator). The film...

    New behind-the-scenes book to celebrate Fraggle Rock

I've talked with some people over at Insight Editions and this book is sure to become the prized possession of any...

    In Development: Henson's Fraggle Rock Movie

    The Fraggle film (from what I've gathered) is not being held up due to lack of interest, financing, or any other kind of "business" difficulties. Yes, Henson is still in pre-producion on the film, but they still want to be in pre-production. They are continuing to work the story, vision, script...

    Unstable Fables: 3 Pigs and a Baby

    Well right now Henson is in a period of transition, development and growth. They don't have any real television shows on the air right now and they don’t have a any films to planned hit theaters real soon (at least not in the next 12 months). Right now they just have some small projects (mainly...

    Koch Records to produce Sesame Street CD's

    Koch is starting with these albums because these are the best selling Sesame albums (so it would be silly not to have them out there). They have the songs that most casual Sesame fans would want and/or expect to be able to find (the "classics"). And they are a great starting point for any...

    Big Bird in China

    Well credits are sometimes a finicky and quirky thing. Often times screen credits such as "created by" are allocated based on regulatory/legal/union stipulations. So while Caroll may have come up with the concept for the special and did a lot of the creative work to develop it, Jon (through...

    Unstable Fables: 3 Pigs and a Baby

    What do you mean "go back"? Henson is working on a lot of puppet projects - Puppet Up! Tinseltown, Alt-Reality, S.U.D.S., the Fraggle film, Power of the Dark Crystal, plus numerous Creature Shop projects. Plus they have their digital puppetry too - such as The Skrumps, Frances, Sid the Science...

    Dark Crystal sequel may be headed to DVD

    Well, that would place it between July-December 2009. The last word I got from Henson on the issue was a late 2009 release. Yes, but all that stuff started to come out after physical production/filming had actually started. That hasn't happened yet for this film. I would wait until they get out...

    Dark Crystal sequel may be headed to DVD

    Take, for example, "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skill". That film is a very highly anticipated film with a huge fan base of very dedicated and hard-core fans. The film will be hitting theaters in 4 months...and there has been no trailer, no giant production blogs and only about...
