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 had no idea of that about digital distribution. Though with the average individual track costing 99 cents to just over a few dollars I wondered if it was difficult to divide that for everyone entitled to residuals, or even if only a few people (like maybe just the songwriter and lead singer)...
So they'd have to renegotiate residuals? I would think his residuals would be the same as old releases of the soundtrack. But whether they'd have to renegotiate the residuals for the rerelease, I wonder if they'd have to let them know of the rerelease.
I hope he didn't confuse the question...
Speaking of the "Beam me up, Scotty!" trope, there was recently an episode of The Big Bang Theory where the main characters dress as characters from Star Trek: The Next Generation and their car gets robbed when they try to take a picture in the dessert. At one point they find a place where they...
There's a few things that I wonder if they would qualify for "beam me up, Scotty!", which refers to lines lots of people incorrectly think were said on shows (or misquote, incorrectly combine different phrases into one, or were actually said but weren't said enough times to be a catch phrase but...
I was just watching the episode of King of the Hill where Bobby takes a comedy class, and at the end, at the talent show, when he starts making fart sounds with his whoopie cushion, the principal takes him off the stage and afterwards he's in detention (presumably because of that). I can see...
I didn't realize new episodes were still being produced (though I did know that Comedy Central renewed the show a few years ago). I don't think I even realized that the show was still on the channel (reruns or otherwise) at all. It was a great show, but I think it's good that it's ending now (of...
I recently found this, a YouTube "closing to Children's Songs and Stories with the Muppets":
But the promo shown advertises the first seven videos, instead of the first four. It makes me wonder if later printings of the videos had longer promos (there are some videos I've rented and later...
I recently heard the song "Nobody", the recording from the Sesame Street Live! album. And I noticed in the lyrics Snuffy keeps saying "I guess I'll go to my house..." But Snuffy lives in a cave, not a house. And the house line doesn't go with any rhymes in the lyrics (he could have said cave or...
So... There were two episodes involving dog shows? Because I'm pretty sure that's not the one where DJ volunteers to spend time with an old man with Alzheimer's disease.
The "Muppets, Inc." thing is kinda confusing, though it seems Henson Associates also continued to be in credits after the company became Jim Henson Productions.
I've seen the back covers for some Sesame Street Atari games, which gave copyright credits for both Muppets, Inc. and Henson...
Is this the first movie Frank directed since Disney bought the Muppets? It seems like a long time since he last directed, and hasn't performed his Muppets during that time. I don't know if he was looking at scripts or working on any films that got canceled/assigned to other directors. Though I...
There's one episode I remember, in which a dog came to the Tanner's home, I can't remember if it was a stray or if they were watching it or what. But there's one scene where Michelle hides it among her stuffed animals, and she puts some bunny ears on the dog. DJ comes looking for it and Michelle...
I saw both ABC-DEF-GHI and Wheels on my Feet on the show many times as a kid, but I've only seen the other Big Bird numbers on video and/or online. Though the Big Bird montage in the 20th anniversary special includes clips from all these Big Bird numbers (except maybe ABC-DEF-GHI).
Do shows that continually do new episodes all year round (talk shows, news shows, soap operas) group their shows into "seasons"? Because if they don't take a break from new episodes than how would they really determine when a season ends or begins?
There's a number of places that have public restrooms, but they are one-person restrooms, with one toilet and basically being like a home bathroom (but without a bath tub). People who use these restrooms are expected to lock the doors, and yet places that have these kinds of restrooms have two...
Here's the article that talks about it: http://www.laughingplace.com/News-PID115500-115501.asp
Though looking at the article, it looks like the deal was only for theme park and merchandising rights, as opposed to full character rights like I'd thought after all these years.
