This is really eerie, because I was just watching a lengthily interview with him the other day (I believe it was recorded just a couple of years ago), and at one point he mentioned he was recovering from a stroke (which sort of made his memory fuzzy), but apparently, it was esophigal cancer that...

It seems like no matter what I try to search, irregardless if it's really specific or not, I always come up with the error message "terms too short or too common"... is this happening to anyone else, or just me?

So everyday on the radio at 2:20, they have what they call "2:20 Trivia", where they ask a trivia question, and called number nine wins a bunch of rather nice little prizes like movie passes and such. So anyway, today's 2:20 Trivia Question was, "Two of this innovator's earlier puppets were...

Because for some weird and strange reason, Sarge and I somehow end up nearly hijacking threads with banter, so here's an entire thread dedicated to pure and simple banter. So somebody shock me, and say something intelligent.

It's becoming something of an annoyance whenever navigating through the forum, and having to hit the back button repeatedly until you return to the previous page because of the Google/doubleclick ads.

The Senate strikes again. http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/technology-blog/york-senate-bill-seeks-end-anonymous-internet-posting-162549128.html This IS a cyber stalker's dream come true.

I just got to thinking... has Oscar EVER been depicted, in any shape or form, in full body, out of his trashcan? I know when those knickerbocker plushes came out in the 80s, Oscar wasn't in his trashcan, but rather, wearing a golden sweatshirt with his name in red on the front, but other than...

Well, we pretty much knew he was living on borrowed time, but unfortunately, it would seem that time has finally run out. :(

Over the years, I've noticed more and more fictional characters out there that basically seem like clones of other fictional characters... and no, I'm not just talking about the age-old "Jeanette of The Chipettes and Irma from TMNT are long-lost twins" example, but here are some others I've...

I couldn't help but notice if there's one specific kind of car that seems to pop up in the world of SST quite a bit, it's the old-fashioned Volkswagen beatle. For example, on the series, from time to time, we see Gordon and Susan own a pale blue beatle (in CEOSST, it's parked outside the 123...

I just saw a commercial for these things... they're blankets for little kids, but they also have puppet heads on them as well, so they're basically blanket puppets... Have you guys seen these things? There's like a monkey, an elephant, a crocodile, a bear, and others I can't quite remember...

Even I can remember a time when Telly considered Oscar to be his best friend before he and Baby Bear were... if fact, I think their friendship lasted into the waning days of the old-school era, and into the earlier part of the ATC era. But since this too was a little before my time, I have to...

I think this is the widest shot I've ever seen of the original SST set, back when it was a straight street in 1969.

I was just wondering if anyone here besides me reads through some of the articles written on TVTropes.org? They have some pretty interesting and rather insightful information regarding what people may mistake for cliches.

I'm curious about the position handed out to certain Muppeteers called "Muppet Captains". For example, a number of projects from the 90s credit Kevin Clash as the "Muppet Captain", likewise, in more recent years, that title belongs to Bill Barretta. What exactly is a Muppet Captain? Is it...

I'm not sure if this is an appropriate topic or not, but I've just really been noticing something as of late, and it seems like a small handful of people I know, who don't even know each other, or are anything alike, have at least one thing in common: they all have absolutely horrible mothers...

Every year around Mother's Day, there's this commission that does all these different kinds of studies and surveys that would determine exactly how much of an annual salary a mother would make if she were paid for all of the things she does on a daily basis (cooking, cleaning, taking care of...

We have RHLC, SWAEHB, BBB, and other great threads dedicated to wonderful Muppeteers, but I think it's time that Matt Vogel got a thread for himself, because let's face it, not only is he an awesome performer, but he's had some pretty big shoes to fill, and has been doing an excellent job in...

Has anyone ever seen this lesser known, late-period Sid & Marty Krofft show starring Richard Pryor as a nice guy? I recently purchased a best-of VHS collection of old Krofft programs at Goodwill, and volume 3 of the set had an episode or two of this series of theirs, and if you ask me, this...
