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.
Just FYI, there will be more Rowlf stuff coming up soon, so stay tuned!
Unfortunately, for now, we have to leave the safe, warm comforts of Sesame Street and explore elsewhere. As odd as this may sound, this next place actually contributes to the end of the story.
Hang on, watch your...
Herry: "What's after 15?"
Jon Jon: "Uhhh...what comes after 15?"
Herry: "After 15 comes..."
Jon Jon: "Uhhh..."
Herry: "16"
Jon Jon: "OH! Cause that is...SIXTEEEN!"
Yup, that's right.
Chapter 16
"Hi doggy!"
"Hi doggy!"
Rowlf smiled and waved as two preschoolers rode...
Well, it's just a smidge early for Halloween, but what the hey. This chapter has some additional spookiness to it. Enjoy!
Chapter 15
"Ah yes, yes, this looks like a sufficient place to begin our questioning. Right here, it seems, the citizens of this street are doing some rennovation. An...
Clowns? Well, how bout a compromise? They can be clowns, while you can dress up like Lew Zealand (he kinda looks like a clown). That way you get to be a Muppet and you'll fit in with the rest of your friends when you go out. If someone asks you why you have a fish, just say "Oh, just for the...
Which Muppeteer are you going as? You might need a beard.;)
Have you checked out the funny, classic articles on Tough Pigs about Halloween costumes? There was a kid some years ago who dressed up like Jim Henson. It was cute.
Don't forget that the Muppeteers had (maybe still have) pictures...
Right! It's just like the Fraggles do. Remember what Cantus said "All Fraggles the Rock over ring their bells...all together...all at the same time."
The idea is for us (the Muppet fans) to do that, too in real life. On Dec. 21st we pick a time, (the old time was 9PM central, I believe)...
Hey everyone,
This is something I've been thinking about for a while, and if need be, one of the mods can move this thread if it doesn't belong in this category.
Some of our long time members will recall that here at Muppet Central, we used to ring bells on Dec. 21 at a certain time, to...
Now that we are getting a little closer to Halloween and (here in the Midwest anyway) we're getting a lot of chilly, dark overcast days, it seems like the beginning of this chapter fits right in with this time of the year...
Chapter 14
Thanks to Biff's "directions", Max and Frass were even...
Chapter 13
"We're hours behind!" complained Frass.
Frass had been trying to do two things with the map. One of them was finding out where they were. The other was trying to fold the map. Frass was having plenty of trouble with both.
"Is that the turnpike up ahead?" asked Frass.
"Which...
Until we hear something official, nope.
We can speculate all we want, but we won't know anything for certain until Disney or someone who works with or knows Steve well says for sure why he didn't perform on AGT.
Kevin is right, there is a lot of negativity circulating this issue. To...
Hey thanks Count!
I thought about that Chevy Chase bit, too. Did he pronounce it with a long "E" in the first syllable, too? I forget. I just remember him fluffing the pronunciation, then looking off camera, then going "Sesame Street. Sorry."
I thought Piggy would say "See same", because...
More fun with the letter 'S'...
Chapter 12
"See anything, lil' buddy?" asked Sweetums.
Sweetums carried Robin around the block. As he did, he held Robin up to each window to see if anyone was awake. So far, each window was dark.
"It's still kinda early. Let's try the stoop again...
Woah...now that's an interesting theory. If the core Muppeteers had a union instead of working freelance, that'd sound even more plausible.
I totally forgot to tape the show tonight. Oh well, worked out for me, I guess. I'm with DrTooth. next time an appearance comes on, I'll just wait for...
Maybe...
That sounds logical, but you're probably right about Eric, too. He'd probably be wherever the rest of the gang would be, right?
The only other option for Piggy's stellar performance on AGT would be...well...Frank. But the chances of that are extremely slim to none. I think he's done...
Okay I just found this thread, and I'm wondering what all the hubbub is about. Let me read the Muppet Mindset and the last few pages of posts to catch up.
(Reads about the Mark Twain steamboat and meet and greet appearances...Lew Zealand! Sam! Scooter!)
My reaction
(Reads about the new...
This chapter is brought to you by the letter "S" and the number "11"...(and a gratuitous Star Wars reference).
Chapter 11
It happened every morning around this time (on weekdays, anyway). Out of the blue, music began to play. It was a harmonica. The unseen player's instrument sashayed around...
Looks like a lot of PBS stations will show it later. I checked at Tough Pigs and a lot of those folks haven't seen it yet due to their PBS stations having different schedules. (Same with mine...my PBS is showing it on Friday at 4 in the morning!):batty:
The clips and things I've seen...
I don't get that either. No matter what happened with the recasts, my main concern is that Steve is all right. If he got sick or hurt or something and couldn't perform that night, well, it might've happened.
I would feel so much better if someone...Disney, Eric, Steve's friend/family member...
Well, here's something else to consider. As of the Nancy Walker episode, Scooter's still in school. He even says so.
Check out this video (a little after the five minute mark) and Scooter talks about selling magazine subscriptions for school.
