    Elmo Muppeteer Kevin Clash resigns from Sesame Street

    On the other hand, if you're trying to blackmail someone, best to strike while the iron is hot, huh?

    Elmo Muppeteer Kevin Clash resigns from Sesame Street

    Oh, for pity's sake. A third accuser is going to file a lawsuit today, and he already has a book in the works. Excerpts to be released today too. Also, TMZ showed its class by asking Brian Henson about the allegations while a little girl (his daughter?) was right there with him. Real smooth.

    Music Video: "All I Need is Love" with CeeLo Green and The Muppets

    It's cute, but, yeah, a bit scattershot. I love Walter and his camera phone--with a Kermit skin, no less. I didn't like the Lo-Co puppet; it looked like they were trying to get too exact, and it had a kind of sinister expression. I wish it was a Muppetty color like blue or purple instead...

    Elmo Muppeteer Kevin Clash resigns from Sesame Street

    Basically, Fox wants to know why Clash continued to work on SST after being accused. Forget all that "innocent until proven guilty" nonsense; they smell blood in the water.

    Bringing Back the Bells...

    Hmm. The Solstice is at 6:12 in the morning where I live. I'll be waiting for a bus. I hope the Fraggles can keep from freezing until I get home that evening.

    Elmo Muppeteer Kevin Clash resigns from Sesame Street

    According to an article in Eurweb: Can anyone confirm or disprove this? I wouldn't know where to start.

    The Fanfic Research Thread

    Jill in The Muppets Take Manhattan had hair. Whether that was her own or a wig, who can tell? (Bill and Gil, of the same trio, also have hair. And Bill has external ears. Has he been doing some evolving on the sly?)

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    I saw that movie on Friday as well, and I quite enjoyed it. It was better than the previews made it out to be, but then previews often play to the lowest common denominator. I won't post any details as I don't want to spoilerize it. I will say I had to grin when I saw Hades and Ralphie in...

    The Fanfic Research Thread

    Then check out The Muppet Museum of Art. It's up on Youtube, along with every other MB episode, last time I checked. Gonzo is actually a pretty darn good artist when he's motivated.

    The Fanfic Research Thread

    In Muppet Babies the characters sometimes draw. In one episode they all make flipbooks. They've been known to draw in the air with Scooter's light pen, and in one episode they even made an art museum in the nursery. And if you want to include the SST Muppets, Big Bird is a remarkably good...

    A Nest Divided: A Sam the Eagle Story

    *chuckles* Fun chapter! Love the cameos by Walter and Skeeter. Amy Mebberson would approve. And I'm glad that Andrew dropped a mention of the source of the guns, otherwise Gonzo's indestructibility might have been put to the test. Somehow I missed last chapter. Whoops! The car-swapping...

    Happy Thanksgiving 2012!

    I spent the day alone, but that's fine, it's my chosen lifestyle. "I'm never alone, I never get lonely..." I cooked a big 12-pound bird, and had broccoli and french bread from scratch, and cranberry sauce from a can. I'm saving the turkey bones, because when I strip the carcass of its meat...

    Fraggle fic: The Minstrel's Path

    Thanks, guys, glad to have given you a smile. Heh, what with all the furor in the forum, it's a relief--for me, at least--to spend some time in the happy, innocent land of the Fraggles. And Doozers, and Pisca, and Thrumb, and whatever Brool is. Where money is unheard of and people say "I...

    Fraggle fic: The Minstrel's Path

    As the days grow shorter and colder my chapters grow longer and...hotter? ***** The Minstrel's Path Part 13 by Kim McFarland ***** It was a warm summer day. It was, in fact, the longest day of the year, the summer solstice. Some Fraggle colonies celebrated the event. However, the...

    The... -wait fer it-... "What made you laugh today?" Thread

    You know the classic cartoon startle reaction, jumping straight up in the air? As I was walking home I went by a squirrel that was digging for something right by the sidewalk. Its head was down and it didn't notice me until I was right beside it. Then it jumped about nine inches straight up...

    Elmo Muppeteer Kevin Clash resigns from Sesame Street

    This is very sad. I'm not going to express my opinion of the situation, as it involves speculation on Clash's private life. I just hope that justice is done. And that, if Clash's name is cleared, that he can return to Sesame Street. "The penalty for false accusation is worse than the...

    The... -wait fer it-... "What made you laugh today?" Thread

    I just found out that Wreck-It, Wreck-It Ralph (the movie there, heard over the closing credits) is performed by Buckner & Garcia. How's THAT for video arcade nerd nostalgia!

    The “What did you do today?” thread

    I made the pattern for my next puppet's skin and boiled up half a yard of Punky Muppet fur. When that dries, let the cutting and dyeing begin!

    My second puppet: Skeeter

    Amy Mebberson likes my Skeeter! Pardon me while I grin like a dork for the rest of the day.

    Spammers at MC...

    Possibly Red White. So far this user has posted 4 copies of the same advert for his puppet shop in various forums. In the "Puppets for sale" forum the post is appropriate, but repeating it in "Puppet Performing," "Puppet Building and Performing," and "Friends and Family" seems to me to cross...
