    Pigs in Space Reference on "Roseanne"

    I don't know if anyone's noticed this before, but there has been a Pigs in Space reference on "Roseanne". Now that it's Halloween time, they often show a clump of all the Halloween-themed "Roseannes" together...and that's where you'll find the following reference. I wish I knew the name of...

    Has anyone ever lost a pet?

    I lost a pet, too. This past July, my family lost one of our cats. Her name was Venus, and she passed away just three weeks shy of her 18th birthday. Venus was a golden tabby cat. Think of an athletic Gaffer without the eyepatch, with a hint of Mr. Rogers' "Daniel Striped Tiger" mixed in...

    Here's the Snerf You can see it in the link I posted for the Ideal puppets commercial. It's to the left of Jim Henson. Here's another link: http://www.henson.com/fun/fcreature/snerf_fcreature.html I think they might have appeared on SS way back in 1969, too. Convincing John

    "Where's My Water?" a funny Frank Oz story

    Hey folks. Some of you probably know about "An Evening With Jim Henson and Frank Oz", a kind of forum that was taped back in 1989 where Jim and Frank sat on stage. They answered questions from the audience and performed some of their characters. Something that sticks in my mind about the...

    Hair...how much is a hank?

    Hi, everyone. I'm working on a puppet that will need hair. I've read a lot of the hair-related threads on here that have helped me out a lot...but I have a question. How much is a "hank" of hair? Here's the hair I've been looking at. Go to this link...

    Eyelid friction

    Hi, everyone. I'm working on a puppet that will have blinking eyes and I plan to use ping pong balls for the eyes and foam eyelids. If I can pull it off, the eyes will blink. Kind of along the same wavelength as Clifford's. When I cut out the eyelids, though, I noticed that there was...

    Jeepers Creepers...look at these peepers!

    Hey, folks. I stumbled across this site while looking for suitable eyes for a puppet I'm building. They're realistic doll eyes, some of which are round, acrylic and might be OK to attach blinking mechanisms to. You'll have to check it out for yourself, though. Depends on what kind of puppet...

    Can the licensing be expanded for new figures?

    No, I didn't think about the Disney license at the time of my post. Sorry. Thanks for clearing up the Doglion query for me. Of course I'm grateful for the figures and other Muppet stuff we have now thanks to Palisades. I'd gladly vote along with you for Fraggle figures as well (if they ever...

    Can the licensing be expanded for new figures?

    Yeah...I can see your point. But then again, they made Doglion not too long ago as an exclusive, and not many would know him by name. The same could be said for Marvin Suggs and maybe Crazy Harry as being unrecognized by the general public. I was amazed (and happy) to see them made as...

    Can the licensing be expanded for new figures?

    Okay, we all know about the licensing of which characters from which shows Palisades can make. Some of us are grumbling (myself included) that they can't make JHH figures. (Leon would be awesome!) But is there any impact us fans can have to influence the licensing to include JHH and other...
