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.
Wow, 25 years. Truth be told, I don't think I've actually seen every episode of the series like I have with the original Muppet Show and the 2015 ABC Series. But, from what I have seen (probably around 40%-ish) it was a very good show. Though for the record, I've really been meaning to watch...
So now the two human leads in Great Muppet Caper have both passed away, first Diana Rigg last September and now Charles Grodin. He was a great villain in GMC, very entertaining and charismatic. May he rest in peace.
What more can be said that hasn't already been said? Jim Henson will always be one of the greatest entertainers of all time. There's no telling what he would have been doing with the technology that we have today. The fact that his legacy is still alive and well 31 years later is a testament to...
I guess I'll add some more to this thread
- Eric Jacobson in Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie did a better job performing Frank Oz's characters (Fozzie, Piggy, Animal) than Frank Oz did during mid-to-late 90s muppet productions (Treasure Island, Muppets Tonight, and Muppets From Space)...
Yeah, exactly what I was thinking. Crazy how Dave Goelz has been around for both Kermit recasts too. He really doesn't get enough credit for all his hard work, I can't even imagine someone else voicing Gonzo. And, unfortunately, we can't see more of the Gonzo-Rizzo pairing this time around since...
So the plot is about Gonzo being challenged to spend the night at the Haunted Mansion. I'm glad this is Gonzo-centric because I'm still not really the biggest fan of Vogel's Kermit. My only worry is that this will focus too much on promoting the parks over a good story. But, either than that, it...
Wasn't really the biggest fan of this. Like some said earlier, I was hoping for more old-school Sesame Street content. Some of it just felt like empty virtue-signaling too. How can you mention the BLM movement while continuing to erase Northen Calloway's legacy from the show? I get he had his...
There are about a dozen muppet-related projects that never left the development phase so I'll take this with a grain of salt. But, I am very excited to watch when/if it is released. They could definitely try to get David Cross to play Frank Oz.
Yeah, that's what I figured. The only reason I had some doubt is because I wondered who would go through the trouble of putting a false acting credit on the Wikipedia page of a puppeteer that hasn't been around since the early 90s.
On another note, has anyone ever seen this video of Richard...
Richard Hunt's Wikipedia page says that he voiced the character "James the Red Engine" from 1991-92 on the Thomas the Tank Engine show. I don't remember ever hearing anything about this so I was wondering if it's true or not. Since anyone can edit these pages, I'm guessing it's fake.
Duncanville is a great series and I'm glad it's returning for season 2 and 3. It has a nice mix of grounded old Simpsons humor and outlandish Family Guy-style gags. The fridge episode in particular was very fun to watch.
Yeah, I have an issue with the way they're marketing this or at least the way the media is reporting it. I think a lot of people who aren't really familiar with SS aside from the main muppets (big bird, elmo, cookie) think that this is the first time they've had a regular black character on the...
Classic episode here. The plot of workers being replaced by machines is even more relevant in 2021 than it was in 1979. Too many great skits too, from Gonzo's bomb defusing gone wrong to Fozzie's At the disco-dance comedy mashup. This is one I'd highly recommend for anyone who wants to get into...
This episode was never commercially released prior to the Disney+ launch, so the only way I had seen it was through a recording off of Nickelodeon. It had always left me confused because they never explained why Bobby was arrested & he had just abruptly returned with no explanation. And then I...
Interesting news. I would visit these two sites daily when I was really into the Muppets back around 2013-14. I like the layout of ToughPIgs more than Muppet Mindset but they were both fun visits. Sad to see Mindset go (I even once published an article with them) but at least their articles will...
