Where do you think Charles Rivkin would be in all this? Also, IF "Farscape" actually were to continue, as well as the other "Farscape" projects, could Jim Henson Television/Pictures still be able to produce them? And if they could, could the Creature Shop still be involved? Just trying to...

Yeah, that whole scenario does seem a little far-fetched. I would imagine that Disney's been trying to get the whole "Jim Henson Company" than just the core brand "The Muppets" for the past two years. That may have changed now, but I really doubt that's been the case the whole time. But...

This is a theory, right? It just doesn't seem likely, especially after all this time.

To start: With this, my 332nd post, I have finally reached (1.00 posts per day) on my profile. At this rate I'll be a senior member by 2006! Looking forward to that. Moving on... It's funny 'cause in the past I've always said if there was ONE part of Henson I wanted to buy, if I couldn't...

Yeah, congrats Muppet Central. And on the 6th anniversary of the new look (although I didn't see it 'til the next day). Man, now I got a hankering for cake. Mmmm, cake...*drools* If only there were a Homer Simpson smilie.

Snarl...:mad: (first time I've ever used Piggy, now I know why) And I was looking at a Reuters/Variety article about Saban emerging as the sole bidder of KirchMedia (if only Henson got the close attention that auction got), and, after mentioning Saban's departure from the JHC sale, it said...

And just the mere possibility that The Muppet Show or Fraggle Rock might return to TV for the first time since August 2001 should make anyone rejoice. That, and it was two years ago today since EM.TV announced their intentions, so this rollercoaster must end before EM.TV sells another Henson...

And, hey, I didn't even consider this possibility 'til now. Just a weird choice of words in these articles.

2 years to the "day" Man, I'm doing my homework. Dang, when you say it like that, it almost makes sense. And that scares me. If Disney were to buy "The Muppets," do you think the Muppet Workshop (whatever's left of it) and the NY office will still be in tact? Yeah, I was wondering what...

I don't care if the Disney logo's in the lower right-hand corner, just bring back the video clips. For the love of Gonzo, bring back the video clips. It's like a piece of me is gone.

:excited: That's my favorite part.

Hmm, now if Disney were to buy The Jim Henson Company, they would, I believe, still use the term(s) "Jim Henson's Muppets," "Jim Henson's Bear in the Big Blue House," "Jim Henson's Brats of the Lost Nebula," etc for future projects. Now if Disney were just to get the hundreds of Muppets without...

Re: disney Jim Henson: The Works, p. 186 says: So radical were the advances that the word "puppetry" seemed insufficient to describe how many characters were brought into being. To characterize the blend of cable control and radio control used to bring Jen and Kira to life, Jim used the...

Well, muffins are cool. :confused: :concern:

Yeah, though I want Disney to buy...whatever it is they're trying to get, I'm not getting my hopes up. Any theory why the Creature Shop isn't involved in anything?

That's mother ******* disgusting. ANYWAY, I'm in the group 4 era, though the group 3 era was cooler, though I'd really like to dig the roots of group 1. That's mother ******* disgusting. Pardon my French, and don't get me started on them. I'm gonna stop b4 I get banned.

As would I. Soooo, not to disrupt the flow of this....discussion, Jim was secretly/indirectly incorporating his Christian Science beliefs into his work?

Y'all are creeping me out. :concern:

OK, this makes 2 articles that say Disney's bidding for Jim Henson Co., and not just the library and characters.

Hey, I'm surprised that a Disney spokeswoman even COMMENTED on the thing. Funny, on Friday afternoon, after the Valentine thing surfaced but before the Disney articles same, I made a call to Disney (which I do often), to see if they were in talks to buy JHC (which I usually ask). After being...
