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.
That does look like a scout uniform ... hmmm ...
I am working on a Youtube version of this material now. I have much higher quality copies of the first two episodes than are out there now, but haven't had time to do a full restoration. I'll try to do a quickie semi-restored version for Youtube...
A note on the script says that the budget for the puppet segments with Kermit, Fozzie, Gonzo etc is basically nil. (The scenes with them are very similar from episode to episode, and would have been shot one after the other.)
Mike Quinn worked on the show as assistant, with Jim and Frank...
This is from the archives of one of the show's writers, which his family is still going through, but this is the only tape with LMM stuff on it.
As far as I know, the puppet segments for 18 episodes were shot, and hopefully still exist in someone's collection somewhere.
This is what we've got...
Posted pics here.

Kermit, Gonzo, and Scooter appear - as does Fozzie, though I haven't checked if that's new footage - it cuts off before it really gets going.
Yes, I've been editing the Little Muppet Monsters Wiki page today after just having watched three partial unaired episodes of the series. I'll add some photos to make it official. I'd like to track down storyboards from the animated segments of these episodes though. I think we do have the...
Here we are then, dearies. "The Journey of Truesong," my 5-minute, 16mm black and white film inspired by Jim Henson's "The Storyteller," is now online for you. Lemme know what you think.

The film is completed and screened .... I am immensely proud of it. The audience hooted, hollered and cheered ... it was a HUGE response. Big, big stuff. I don't have a copy posted online yet, but sometime this week surely.
It stands on its own as a film certainly. I actually rather...
Hi, it's Garrett again. Just letting all you fans of The Storyteller know that recently I was watching all the old shows again, and suddenly got an insane urge to make, basically, my own episode of the series as a student film. I am shooting it on 16mm black and white film, and the final film...
If you haven't seen what I think is Terry's best solo directorial effort, "The Wind in the Willows" (US Title "Mr. Toad's Wild Ride), seek it out! It's very Muppety, magical and features most of the Monty Python cast.
I doubt it could be better than the excellent (and pretty recent) version by Monty Python's Terry Jones ... starred Steve Coogan, Eric Idle, and Jones ... anyone see that? Came on video here called Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.
MuppetMonkey, your puppets are absolutely amazing and must work gangbusters on TV.
And of course ... Tom, Tom, Tom, great work. I love your wampa ... er, ice creature. And I too am amazed at how you captured Statler and Waldorf and the Chef. I think though I was most impressed by a shaggy...
I have said this before, and I avoid saying it too much, but man, the JHH .... that show really hit me hard as a kid, I just saw it as being really abnormally unnecessarily amazing. Having seen it again recently, I have to concur that as a kid I was totally right. There's just something about...
Okay, my thoughts.
FOZZIE AND PIGGY -- AMAZING. I still hate Whitmire's Kermit and everytime a voice is replaced it makes me shudder and ignore the character ... this is the exception. I was certain it was Frank Oz the entire time, and also noted those two characters as the best part of the...
Would be fun if everyone would post WAV files trying voices out. =)
I try to be a man of a thousand voices, but I've never managed to practice and nail actual Muppet voices! I've been trying to get Kermit down but can only manage Ernie. Ernie, especially singing, I could do. Or a weird...
