    Well he does suffer from sticky paint but as far as sculpt accuracy he's real nice.

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    I totally forgot about Janice's line in GMS and MTM/ Another perfect example of how this has always been part of the muppets. Asl ong as the right character is used it's fine.

    What does Clifford have to do with Sal not being made?

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    I think they made Toto a talking character because it would be kind of weird to have some muppet dog following them and not talking and of course a real dog just wouldn't work. So the only way to have Toto is as a talking character. Of course I would rather Rowlf, but Rowlf is kind of big. It...

    Regarding Pepe

    Pepe is basically the non-muppet muppet. Just like Bean is the embodiment if the cute side of the muppets, Pepe is the embodiment of the adult side of the muppets and the other pretty much fall in between. So, he's supposed to be crass and stuff. It's just like Bean being way too cute. It's...

    So, AVMMC got a 3.8 share? So then MWoO almost went up a whole point.

    As far as likeness and sculpt, my top 5 would have to be, in no particular order: Series 8 Sam, shifty more than regular Series 5 Gonzo, though the nose paint wasn't perfected until later Series 9 Pops. Perfect except for the lack of those tiny stripes. Series 7 Jonny who just...

    Rowlf's Hands

    Well who ever does Rowlf's hands now (when we actually see him that is) should learn the paino. One time I saw the new Rowlf playing and it didn't look right at all.

    Did you ever think the 90's destroyed you were older? If you really look back at theo lder stuff they get away with a lot of stuff you could not get away with today. The difference is today you have parents groups pointing out every last adult themed thing in cartoons so you get the watered...

    What did AVMMC get when it aired? I know there were 11 million people, but I don't know what the rating share was.

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    You are insane if you think THIS movie is what caused the down fall of society and will make the world end. Seriously, there was nothing in it that was that bad. It was rated PG which means it was up to parents to let their kids watch or not. If a 4 year old watched it all the way through it...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    Is it now a running gag in the new movies that Kermit gets goosed? If so, I think that's kind of funny. So is it official that Brian did not voice Scooter? I know he voiced Sal, but do we know he didn't voice Scooter? It sounded like it was dubbed later to me.

    Henson Contro system and CGI

    The Doozers mouthes moved using the radio control system. A performer put their hand into what looked like a puppet mouth and as the performer operated the larger mouth the smaller mouth would move. The same was used for the gorgs. Walso, on the Jim Henson Hour and in Muppet Vision was...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    Sweetums has become al ittle scary. I think it's the voice and the fact that his part is limited now. I think bad editing is really hurting them uppets these days. Editing and directing. The ideas are there and the scripts are ok but when they get hacked by editing it creates a sub-par...

    It's not really that ofdd since the deals were all probably struck before the sale. This has been in production since before the disney buy out.

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    So many people blame Disney for the remakes of stories, but the fact is they were all JHC ideas under the leadership of Brian Henson.

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    It's racist in that they just see black people and make a snap judgement that it must be the balck wizard of Oz and therefore not for them. And there was nothingf "urban" about the movie. For christ sake, it took place on Kanas and Oz, not a freaking city. To say black equals urban is...

    A burp...you are so offended by a burp.... Well, I guess you never burp. I guess you never watched Sesame Street because Cookie Monster always burps when he eats cookies. So, it's not just "hollywood idiots" it's Frank Oz and JIM Henson who thought a burp can be funny too. Everyone...
