    It's not a done deal yet. HIT has made no official or definate statement for Season Sets. Some customer service representitives say they are in the works and will be out for fall '05; others say they are under consideration and could be created; others say there are no plans right now. As...

    Polls

    I agree with MC's system, I've been in many forums where almost every post has a poll attached; people create polls for no reason other than having a poll; or the polls are not fair, accurate, or complete. They usally become a forum clutterer and distraction; rarely are they really needed and if...

    The Muppets 50th Anniversary

    But this is not a Disney owned anniversary, it is a Jim Henson anniversary (not The Jim Henson Company, but Jim Henson the man). This 50th landmark is as important to Disney as it is to The Jim Henson Company, and Sesame Workshop. It would be wrong for Disney (and the Muppets) to steal the...

    Fraggle Rock: Season 1 DVD Coming Fall 2005

    That's unsure as of now, but most season box sets of TV shows (of shows the length/size of the Fraggle's 1st season) usally run anywhere from $29.99 to $49.99. We'll have to wait and see when HIT! officially announces the set.

    "When Love Is Gone" from MCC

    Yes, Paul Williams wrote the songs for The Muppet Christmas Carol (along with The Muppet Movie, and Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas). Miles Goodman wrote the score (the instrumental parts), based off William's songs, classic Christmas carols, and original stuff too. But Williams teamed up with...

    "When Love Is Gone" from MCC

    The version in the credits was sung by Martina McBride. Although the song was written by Paul Williams (as are all the other songs in the movie). Both versions of When Love is Gone appear on the MCC Soundtrack album (which is a hard find now). This recording was ment to be a more the commercial...

    The Muppets on SNL Dec. 18!

    Even the Muppeteers can laugh at themselves. Even though SNL has made fun of the Muppets (and Conan, which is also in the same building and many Conan folk have worked for SNL including Conana, and many SNL folk have worked for Conan) they still can take a joke, and know it is in good fun. In my...

    The Muppets on SNL Dec. 18!

    I saw the episode last night and loved it. The Christmas Song with Horatio was great. I loved that skit every other time they did it, but with Chris, Tracy, and Jimmy gone from the cast I thought it wound not be this year (unless they all came back for cameos), but the Muppets doing it was...

    The New Henson.com

    [/i] Kermit (and the other Muppets for that matter), were not taken from Jim Henson (or any of the other performers, creators, or workers). Kermit was seperated from The Jim Henson Company, not Jim Henson the man. No sale or deal with the Muppets can ever take Kermit from Jim (or Jim from...

    I wonder if Sesame Street will ever come on DVD

    I did some math here... If Sesame Workshop did produce season box sets, and season one came out in fall 2005 (although realistically from now that's calling it close). And they then released each subsequent season every 6-months (or 2 a year), which is normal for TV shows season set releases...

    I wonder if Sesame Street will ever come on DVD

    I doubt season sets, but I would like to see "Best of"s of each season/5-years/decade. The reason season sets would be dull is that a lot of things are shown in many episdoes, and sitting down to watch a season you'll see the same skit 20 time, and that is dull. A box set with each disk covering...
