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 am unbelievably happy that Gonzo managed to pull off his amazing (ly stupid) stunt, but worried about whether or not harm will come to him.
I enjoyed the back-stage interaction between the guys, and then the mention of the upcoming interaction between the girls, er, ladies. Here's hoping...
Chapter 97: The Stand-Out Stand-Ins
“So this is your brother, Jimmy,” Annie Sue said. She looked from one to the other thoughtfully. “You look a lot alike,” she said at last. Except for the mottling patterns on his back, Kermit and Jimmy in matching suits looked quite similar.
“I’m the...
Oooh! One of my favorite skits EVER with Count von Count! I actually use that as a teaching example in my adult classes!
And no, Hormel does not look like John Hamm (who I had to look up to know who he was). Hormel is sortof tall, dark and handsome (yawn, yawn,) but a really nice guy. He's...
I must admit to a certain childish pleasure in Annie Sue's appearance and in the nice, old-fashioned name of her husband....I was thinking of Jimmy Dean but as we already have a Jimmy running wild in the story....
Thanks for enjoying my silliness, and my seriousness, and for reading. I don't...
Chapter 96: Imposters
“Not that I’m complaining, mind you,” said Daniel, “but it was just…weird.”
“And kinda creepy,” said Jacques. He took another bite out of his apple and shook his head. “She didth everthinn we askth.”
“Could you chew or talk, one or the other?” Claude snapped. Daniel and...
Um, just commenting that Link does have um, a sortof line in TMTM. He sobs very loudly in the wedding scene--he is sitting with the pigs. In Hollywood, even "coughing" onscreen is considered a "speaking part," so....
Other than that--well, I love that Piggy, who looks so artificial (weird...
Clifford: Watcha doin', Ru?
Ru: Catching up on Newsie's latest story.
Clifford: Yeah, um, reading. I've been meaning to do more of, um, that. Maybe you could just tell me about it....
Ru: It's got muppets and monsters and chaos and technical malfunctions. There are rats, bats, glamorous...
Ru: Aack! Stop posting more chapters of this wonderful stor---wait. That's not right. Hmmm. Let me go out and come in again.
Aack! I'm behind! Stop writing so fast!
Gonzo: Try reading faster.
Ru: Aw, who asked you! (Reads faster....) I WILL post when I am caught up!
Okay, Ed--if I cry "Uncle Kermit" will you tell me what the numbers mean? I've thought of birthdays, anniversaries, the number of typos in this epic....what obvious thing am I missing?
Chapter 95: Whole Truths
“You okay, Sister-in-law?” Jimmy asked. She’d been unnaturally quiet on the trip home. “I guess you’re tired of all this.”
Piggy tried to rouse herself from the funk she’d been in and make normal conversation—whatever that was. She couldn’t remember the last time...
Chapter 94: Half-Truths
“I wish I were twins,” said Piggy distractedly, opening the cupboard to look for her favorite mug.
“I wish you were twins, too,” Kermit said cheekily, watching her as she poured coffee.
Piggy snorted. “Like you could keep up,” she retorted. Kermit just grinned and...
Yes! Exactly! I don't really understand the problem. The one in the standee--THAT'S the one I want! (Er, and while you're at it, a life-size Gonzo would be appreciated! Heh, heh, heh!)
The world is overrun with plush animals, and yet I cannot find a decent Fozzie Bear doll/bear--why is this?
Disney, if you are listening, Fozzie would make a GREAT snuggle toy! He's cute, he's child-like, he soft and furry and I WANT a non-teeny-tiny, appropriately furred (and tied and hatted)...
Chapter 93: Confidentially Yours
“Mee mee meep meh mee!” Beaker said importantly. Bunsen watched with interest as his tall, tube-headed partner poured a smoking liquid from one glass jar into a slender beaker that already contained a viscous, purple fluid. Immediately, the potion began to foam...
In a word....Ewwwwwwwyuck! Great addition to the story. I'm glad you explained about the indigestible nature of the muppet host. I was getting a little worried. And I'm glad Camilla's keeping her, um, beak up. You can't love Gonzo and be faint of heart.
And I am TOO going to finish my...
Piggy: Sweetie--you seem a little overworked lately.
Ru: (tiredly) Oh. Yeah. *sighs* Thanks for noticing, Piggy. It's been a little hectic, but I'm about to settle in.
Piggy: Moi is glad to hear it. (muttering) Your ironing has been sub-standard for days now. Kermit has had to touch up...
Oooh! Halloween approaches! And now, a quote from one of my OTHER favorite shows:
"In the Old Religion they call it Samhain. It's a night when the walls between the worlds grow thin, and spirits of the Underworld walk the earth. A night of masks and balefires, when anything is possible and...
