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.
Kermit: And up next we have Ru, who will demonstrate for us her talent for completely ignoring her own continuity, not to mention everyone else's, at the drop of a hat! Take it away, Ru!
Statler: No--really. Take it far away.
Waldorf: What he said.
Ru: (ignoring the two old men in the balcony)...
Chapter 12
Sara Grosse was used to being up at all hours. Pregnancy, especially in the later stages, tended to make you well-acquainted with the necessary room at all hours of the night. Another symptom of pregnancy—albeit rarer—was insomnia. Sara had a theory that it was nature’s way of making...
I'm watching America's Got Talent and I just saw Demi Lovato bring the house down. I have to say it was an amazing performance, and it was very moving to watch it. The song, the performance, were more than passing autobiographical, and she really nailed it after having a rather difficult year...
Excitement is GOOD! And a warm welcome to muppet fandom! Us, er, mature folks are delighted to see a younger generation embrace our favorite felt friends. Wander around and see what all we've got here at MC--we're really very friendly!
I've been promising a genuine review--and here it is! (Full of typos, no doubt, but so be it--the typing fairy has already gone to bed.)
Sixteen I
Well, there’s plenty of heroism in the last segment, and plenty of anti-heroism in the end of this story. I was so glad that Grandmama Angie...
Ru: (nudging Piggy) Cute pajamas, hm?
Piggy: Wasn't looking at the pajamas....
Fozzie: Why do people put cucumbers over their eyes? I don't get that.
Kermit: I'm thinking it's to avoid knowing that your sharing a bed with Bob, Rowlf and two dogs you barely know.
Fozzie: And fleas.
Ru: (to...
Ru: I gotta say--I like the muppaphone bit. Classic--very classic. But that Marvin Suggs guy sounds like someone I know--can't think who....
Fozzie: Me neither.
Piggy: Neither can Moi.
Ru: Okay—food’s ready, computer’s ready—that was really swell of Dr. Honeydew to help us set up the large-screen hook-up.
Piggy: I can't wait for everyone to see Moi!
Kermit: You looked, um, very exotic, Piggy. C'mere--sit by me on the couch.
Fozzie: I'm coming, too! Robin--you sit between...
Outside Apt 2
KNOCK KNOCK!
Kermit: (worriedly) I hope he likes his presents. Dad helped me--
Piggy: Robin will love them!
(The door opens.)
Robin: Hi everybody! Hi Miss Piggy! Hi Fozzie! (hugging Kermit) Hi Uncle Kermit! Hi Auntie Ru! I'm a whole year older!
Ru: I heard...
(I don't want to drag the topic off-topic, but the obvious answer about the lack of Rizzo that occurred to me is that this is a very Kermit-centered movie, and we have not really had a movie yet where both Kermit and Rizzo had prominent roles AT THE SAME TIME. I truly adore Rizzo--he and Gonzo...
The occupants of Room 5 come bustling in, Kermit and Fozzie groaning under the weight of the luggage.
Kermit: Not to be nosy or anything--
Fozzie: (huffing and puffing) You don't have a nose.
Kermit: (distracted) What?
Fozzie: I said, you don't have a nose.
Kermit: It's just an expression...
BK is the ring that Piggy always wears to remind her of what life was like "Before Kermit." You can see it on her stamp, on the recent picture of her and Kermit that went on tshirts and mugs, in images from her ingenue days on TMS, on the cover of her latest book. Unless she's in character...
(I just wanted to say how happy I am to see new folks--welcome, welcome! We're so glad to see new faces, er, names and avatars. PLEASE jump in--we're not really that scary, and Kermit and the gang need ALL of us.)
Um--what happened to BK? Why is she sporting a different ring? And did you get a load of that tennis bracelet? Apparently, diamonds are a pig's best accessory....
