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 really hate to ask the question, but I was looking at their website for internship stuff, and it seems that the Henson Company is trapped in the glorious past.
They've sold The Muppets. They've sold the Sesame Street characters (sure, they make the characters, but don't own them). They don't...
Ernie and Bert aren't gay, put this bullocks to rest. Ernie/Bert were created as a homage to the odd couples of comedy. There is absolutely no subtext to their relationship.
I'm currently going to school in New York at The New School, studying film. There are no puppet classes here, and I would really like to take some. When I was a little kid, I did stuff at the Eugene O'Neil in Connecticut, with the Puppetry Conference, but I've never really had the chance to...
oooo. Is it out now, or tomorrow? On the site, it says Nov. 4th, but on Toughpigs, they said they'll be scanning the pages in asap. So is it out? If so, MUST HAVE.
Wow, Jacobson's Piggy sounds spot on. I still think Whitmire is being too weak as Kermit, but he didn't write the stuff! He does a bang up job on Kermit otherwise, as always.

To answer your question, minormuppetz, people's voices typically drop in pitch as they age. It's not always because of damage/overuse.
I think Whitmire's Kermit has experienced the most change in recent years. His Kermit is sounding hoarse and strained, as if he has been battling laryngitis (or...
Whitmire is usually quick on his flippers... I mean feet. *dun dun TSSH!* It sounds to me like he was just defending Snoop Dog, not condoning pornography.
Nothing wrong with that, I don't think. I don't know if you remember this interview with Jim Henson as Kermit...
