Sam and Friends Book Read our review of the long-awaited book, "Sam and Friends - The Story of Jim Henson's First Television Show" by Muppet Historian Craig Shemin.
I mean seriously, it's getting rully old... as soon as a married celebrity is photographed without wearing his/her ring, then all of the sudden, everybody's like, "OMFG! HE/SHE'S NOT WEARING HIS/HER WEDDING RING? WHY IS HE/SHE NOT WEARING HIS/HER WEDDING RING? ARE THEY ON THE VERGE OF GETTING...
A while back we had a thread about the use of the amensia cliche in TV and movies, and whether or not it really served any real purpose to the story/plot or not... well, I've been thinking lately, and there's another writing cliche that I often wonder about too that sort of falls into a similar...
And a lot less tech savvy than I like to think I am as well.
I mean, seriously, no one else around here at MC seems to have anywhere near as much computer problems as I do (except maybe for when Sarge has to deal with dial-up)... how many times have you guys heard me rant about whatever is...
Now that regular members are allowed to post polls now, I figured we could take advantage of it by having interactive weekly polls, similar to the weekly survey, with an obligatory Muppet-themed poll every other week.
Here's the kick-off.
I'm just curious, what do you guys like to use to fabricate themouthplates of your puppets, both inside (where you hand goes to protect the plates from your sweat), and the outside (where people actually see)?
For years, I've bascially been using felt, and it works pretty well, though my only...
You know, it just now crossed my mind... with all these Henson specials being released on DVD and such that have to be edited to omit any footage including Kermit, such as Emmet Otter and The Christmas Toy and such, why can't they take a hint from Sesame Workshop whenever they release a DVD that...
I finally purchased some gasket material, such as traditional gasket rubber, as well as a corkboard rubber material as well so I can experiment with flexible mouthplates to give puppets more facial expressions, much like Kermit, and early incarnations of the AMs and such...
I hope this stuff...
Yeah, we have similar threads for songs we're listening to right now, we can't get out of our heads, etc... but are there any songs out there you just absolutely cannot stand whenever you hear it on the radio, or in a public place, at played at a party, etc? For me, I have a list of top three...
It's interesting in reading and hearing about what some people actually like to see when it comes down to puppetry, such as reading about how Matt Vogel actually would look for the rods and such that went into the puppets' hands, or hearing about how Sid & Marty Krofft once attempted to...
As a baby, I had a few SST toys manufactured by Illco Toys, including their version of a neighborhood playset, with Hooper's Store and 123, connected by a piece of cobblestone and a tunnel entrance in the shape of the carriage horse garage doors and such.
I was wondering though, is this...
Seeing as how threads regarding thoughts and feelings about the new movie have swelled and there's probably muffining and ziffeling galore going on, I decided to write up a review about the new movie of my own, and have posted it on my own site...
This is something I've been thinking about...
We know that part of the conception of Abby was to avoid giving her just another traditional Muppet look and design, because she wasn't meant to represent just another traditional Muppet character... well, that was pretty much part of Jim's goal in...
You guys remember my favorite webcomic, IDGet, right? Eh, maybe not, but anyway, the latest Muppet parody is quite a HOOT (pun intended?)...

Okay... so I was browsing through Goodwill today, simply because every once in a while, I'll find a treasure there of some sort, almost always along the Muppety line (like a terrific Christmas Kermit plushie, and some really old SST storybooks and such), and while I was looking through old VHSs...
I justfound this on YouTube today, and it really tickled my mind...

This is an excerpt of the end titles of Canadian Sesame Street... the theme played during the credits seems to be a dead ringer for Toots' tune that we heard during the end titles of...
Yeah, those of you who have been following me for a while now are aware of the trio of trouble-making rodents that make up part of my roster of characters known as The Squirrely Squirels (Jennifer, Julie, and Justine)...
At the same time, those of you who lso know me know that I never claim to...
