Hi, everybody! I am looking desperately for three old clips...especially one about Ernie and Grover. Ernie has a green machine with an opening in it. He puts in things like meatballs, noodles and a nest, and the letter M or N pops up from the top. Grover comes along, climbs into the...

Hi, everybody! I just got done watching my new Muppets Magic on the Ed Sullivan Show DVD...if you haven't gotten this yet, order it!!! It's GREAT!!! You'll have Floyd turning your TV set around and saying "His (or her) eyes are GLUED to the set! Ha ha ha ha ha!":sing: Anyway, as my eyes...

Yeah, she was, pretty much, unless you count Chevy Chase. He helped write one of the Gorch sketches. Even though he wasn't on "The Muppet Show", he guest starred on "Follow That Bird" as a newscaster. Convincing John

Well, yes, but they are very hard to find nowadays. The original PVCs of Traveling Matt and Nigel (TMS conductor) are also endangered species. I've seen the Wilkins and Wontkins puppets only on Ebay, and the price just keeps going up...and up...and up... :rolleyes: Kermit (looking at an...

Hey, folks. Convincing John here. I was thinking about what a great year this has been for Muppet merchandise...especially the action figures! Ever since I was a kid, I wanted a 3D version of Zoot...FINALLY!!! Well, anyway, I think we can all agree on one thing...that businesses are...

Oh, I'm no stranger to burning the midnight oil with my green-canned nemesis. Many's the time where a college professor would pile on extra work a few days before winter or spring break (to make sure no one would sneak home early) and I'd stay up all night to study or work on the surprise task...

Happy Birthday, Kevin Clash! Those are all cool characters, but don't forget Leon in one of my most favorite Kevin Clash moments...the Cosby Show "Cliff's Nightmare" where Leon is selling Cliff the elevator passes! Leon: "Thirty-five...hundred dollars...MORE!" That's such a cool scene...

Yeah, there'll be some pictures soon enough at www.gildasclubqc.org or at least one. Unfortunately, I don't have a scanner right now. Otherwise, I'd be scanning the photos like crazy to show you guys! But like I said, Michael Radner has all the best photos I took...and the last thing I knew...

Wait a minute...Anthony Perkins? The same guy who appeared with Scred and Ploobis on SNL? Cool! Well, as Scred would say: "Congratulations, Mr. Gherkins!":zany: But seriously, that's really great news! :) Convincing John

The four-armed guru! That's one of my all time favorite clips! Yeah...the kaleidoscopic backgrounds for each number, the factory scene...the version in Spanish...that was truly one of the best! Say, speaking of the "Pinball Number Count", did they do ones for "1" and "9"? I've never seen...

Yes! I remember that one! It was similar to the "Nobody" character, which was made from string. "That's 10." "Watch the screen and we will try to count how many dots go by..." How about that psychadelic guy with the yo-yo? He was one of my favorites as a kid! He helped the one boy...

It could have been one of Jim's daughters. I'm not sure about that, though. If you have "The Works" book, one of his daughters is seen hugging Ernie, and bearing a resemblance to Prairie Dawn in the background. I forgot which page, but it's in the "Sesame Street" section, Chapter 3...

You know, there's a quote from Jim Henson that reminds me about that weekend of sculpting I did. "When I work with Frank Oz, we'll get into a project and work all day, all night, all the next day and sometimes all the next night too." (From Carroll Spinney's "The Wisdom of Big Bird" p. 133.)...

Here's another animator you can add to your list. I visited "The Vision of Jim Henson" exhibit in 1999, and it had some of the original sketches for the animation segments, including a picture of Jim putting the rocks together for the number 12 film. But next to it was a sketch of Boy...

Gather round, boys and girls. It's time for another "Gilda Construction Story". To get a better understanding of this story, remember the bird that called Wembley "Mama" and Gobo "Booboo"? Well, think of that scene where Wembley is feeding the bird all those different kinds of food, and no...

Hey, blueberry pie's my favorite kind of pie! Yum yum! :p Convincing John (wiping blueberry stains off his gold tooth)

Let me say this...you aren't alone. I know all too well what you went through. I can't count the times that's happened to me :( over the years. Unfortunately, there are people out there who will always think of Jim Henson as only a preschool entertainer and nothing more. I say :boo: to...

I'm not sure who would remember this, but around the time of "Flintstone Kids", there was another short-lived cartoon called "Little Rosie", and it was about Roseanne (Barr at the time) when she was a kid! What will they think of next? Hmmm...hey, how about "Saturday Night Live Kids" with...

I'd like to trade! I'm missing half of the Gorch sketches! The ones I have are: Near extinction of the Gligs Scred and Ploobis get drunk Queen Peuta has trouble releasing her darts 3 mini clips with Scred, Ploobis and Anthony Perkins Christmas Party with Candice Bergen I Got You Babe...
