Yes, we have lost a lot of Henson people as of late. They are all aging. The next generation is stepping up. At least the Muppets are in capable hands (or on capable hands :p)

We'll miss her. What a life, what a legend. Can we get some kind of confirmation?

I'm hoping that eventually commercial puppetry will drift away from knock-off Muppets. Obviously, not knocking THE Muppets, The Jim Henson Company, or Sesame Workshop, but that style of puppetry is very unique to Jim Henson. People should do their own thing rather than recreate Henson's work.

I have a cynical sense of humor myself. To me, though, he's like the thousands of other Youtube reviewers. Needlessly profane (I'm definitely not a prude, I just think swears should be used as seasoning for a good sentence, not as its base), obnoxious, and cliched. If you look up Youtube...

I find him extremely unfunny. His reviews are devoid of any actual wit, and so he relies on swears and screaming as crutches. One of the problems with Youtube is that its absolute, unrestrained creative freedom leaves room for tons of uncreative people to pump out content. As a result, there are...

I don't get the appeal for THE OFFICE, but I really like PARKS AND RECREATIONS. Laugh tracks are a thing of the past. If you need to be told something's funny, it's not your kind of humor, which is fine. But it isn't less of a comedy because there is no laugh track.

Very moving.

Interesting. They don't look much alike.

A friend who works at Puppetheap did do adjustments on Fozzie. The difference wasn't particularly noticeable.

I'm starting to think this will be even better than "The Muppets."

That is a beautiful picture. Gives me chills.

So will the proceeds for this go towards more cheap, non-puppet Henson Company projects aimed at tiny children?

Wow, that was great! "Not as mean as your stylist." Haha. Brilliant stuff. Now I can hardly tell the difference between Jacobson's Piggy and Oz's.

I am sure that IF she passes, we will find out when the family is ready to speak. As of right now, we can only continue sending good thoughts, and prayers, if you believe in such activities having any impact on the Universe.

I was there! Only I was five years old. I remember it vividly, especially meeting and talking with Mrs. Henson.

I appreciate Disney, really. But I'm sick of them sticking the Muppets into whatever tween junk-fest they're currently promoting.

Eh, I don't think they should tack Jim Henson's name onto this. It's a bit insulting to his memory.

Bravo, Mr. Vogel. Because of him, there is no Jerry Nelson Count/Matt Vogel Count. There is only ONE - ONE COUNT! Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah.

She's one of the sweetest people I've ever met. I really hope she pulls through. If not, I hope she finds peace, and gets that rubber chicken in Muppet heaven.

I hope she recovers quickly!
