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'd have to say "Mad Men," "Dirty Jobs with Oscar," "True Mud," and "Birdwalk Empire," and "Upside-Downton Abbey" are my picks. And even though it was filmed shortly after Jim's death, "Eating Cookie" is another one.
A Queen triple threat from Queen II: "Ogre Battle," "The Fairy-Feller's Master Stroke," and "Nevermore."
"Ogre Battle" is one of the precursors to heavy metal like Motley Crue, Judas Priest, and Metallica. It features gritty, driving guitar work from Brian May, outstandingly ferocious drumming...
OK, some old songs and some new songs:
I think they could do "Blinded by the Light" as performed by Manfred Mann and the Earth Band. Lots of synthesizers for Dr. Teeth to play, and a great vocal for Floyd & Janice to do.
Also, the Monkees' "I'm a Believer" would work too, with Dr. Teeth on lead...
Very nice! I loved seeing Jim performing Rowlf and Kermit, and seeing his own Muppets like Waldorf, Guy Smiley, and the Swedish Chef in the background. The Junior Gorg bit was very intriguing, and that talking hero sandwich was hilarious! And it's great to hear Jim's thoughts on technology and...
And YMBAOMF if...
You hire :sympathy: and :cool: to play music in a bar
You hire :confused: and :eek: as science teachers
You DO NOT hire :insatiable: as a baker...or :super: as a waiter
You hire :grr: as a jack...Jack not name, Jack JOB!!!
Not to mention how Matt's doing a great job with the Count. That "AH-HA!" during the rap shows me that Matt has an in-depth understanding of the character, and is really carrying on Jerry Nelson's legacy.
I love this video. So much. Especially Snuffy's appearance and Cookie eating all the...
Yeah, I suppose so. Ed Sullivan's show was geared toward young adult/mature audiences, if I'm not mistaken. The grown-ups would have reacted better to creatures like BDM and Fred the Dragon than a four-year old would have.
Just think for a moment: if Jim reused more Sullivan characters on Sesame...
Yes! Come on, Willie Geist, get it right. You spoke to the man himself. If you weren't convinced that Frank performs characters and not just the voices of Miss Piggy, Bert, Grover, Yoda, Cookie, and Fozzie, then I don't know what to do. (shakes head)
Dude. If you're into rock music, I think you should add "Frankenstein" (by the Edgar Winter Group) to that list. And possibly a Blue Öyster Cult song like "Godzilla" or "Don't Fear the Reaper."
I go to college in New York, and last year there was basically no Halloween because of Hurricane...
I agree with you completely. Ernie looked pretty dopey, Bert was too angry-looking, the Anything Muppets weren't really...anything, and you needed sunglasses to look at bright orange Oscar. And don't even get me started on the ragtag, hick-like Big Bird. I wonder if he got involved with certain...
At first, I thought Frank and Brian Jay were going to be live in the studio with the Today anchors. (I was wrong.) But I thought they did a pretty good job with it overall. The only complaint I have is that I wish they had devoted more time to Frank Oz's interview. He could have gone on for the...
Here's my own breakdown of SS's history
Gold: The first decade or so; 1969-1982. Arguably the best years of the show. Started out very rough around the edges at first, what with the repeated animated segments and the just plain freaky Muppets (Fred the Dragon, anyone?), but is quickly refined...
Wow! They all did a great job with that. I have a feeling that Jim is watching this and smiling right now. He would be proud.
And I must add, Mahna Mahna and Beaker stole the show. I think they could have done a bit more with the Swedish Chef, like maybe running after a girl dressed as a...
This is the one of the few Celine Dion songs that I'll listen to. Other than that, I'm not a big fan. But her voice is so lovely here, and I think she really did Jeff Moss's song justice.
It's also nice to see one of Jerry's last performances as Herry Monster, probably from the late 1990s. I...
I really like this picture. Very original idea, and great photo editing skills.
And I thought of a little exchange just now:
:wisdom:: Hey, Oscar! Oscar! (knocks on Oscar's can)
:grouchy:: What do you want, you overgrown feather duster?
:wisdom:: Look at this picture, Oscar! It's me and all...
