    Labyrinth + Legend Double Feature Screening w/ Brian Henson and Mia Sara

    Ok, that's pretty awesome! Two great fantasy films that came out one after the other. Brian Henson is a really nice guy, too. Have met him a few times now.

    Disney blocks Muppet Babies videos on YouTube

    Dwayne, I hope you're right. I agree the new TV show would be a great opportunity to cash in and finally officially release some of the Muppet stuff we've all been waiting for. But if two new feature films didn't push them to release the rest of the Muppet Show seasons on DVD, I don't have high...

    Rex Features

    Considering I also work for a large photo archive, yes, Rex's images are for use for editorial use, etc. by magazines, books, etc in the print/entertainment industry. They are not for sale to the regular "Joe" because we have people call up my job all the time looking to use our images for...

    Muppet Movie Sing Along with Heather Henson, Long Island

    Hi, Minstrel, sorry for the delay in response. I haven't been on here much at all the past few weeks. I have not attended Heather's presentation of the Muppet Movie, but I hear they're a lot of fun!

    "I Am Big Bird: The Caroll Spinney Story" documentary in development

    People who don't have it showing near them I'm sure care lol it's an amazing film regardless. I saw it in the theater and still want to see it again in my own home and get a copy to have

    New Muppet Pilot in Development by Randall Einhorn (The Office, Modern Family) for ABC

    Yeah I don't know why the concept, title font, etc. has been such a source of major discussion. Let's just be happy The Muppets are back, and hopefully, interest in this show will get Disney to FINALLY release the last two seasons of The Muppet Show on DVD. I mean in the time the last season...

    "I Am Big Bird: The Caroll Spinney Story" documentary in development

    I haven't heard specifically about Netflix, however, I have noticed that a lot of documentaries in general that have had releases lately have been coming out on Netflix the same day as they are available On Demand, etc. I'm hoping so. Netflix did have Being Elmo on there for awhile...

    "A Is For Asthma"

    Dani was a one time character for that educational video and used for promotional appearances to promote that video (local news broadcasts, local schools, etc) Gabriel Velez according to his own website and IMDB, hasn't worked with the Muppets for several years now. His last appearance was in...

    I only read Carroll's book once when it first came out and haven't read it again since, so I don't remember this story, sorry.

    Linda, where are you??

    I remember him being on the show! I remember he was teaching them about bonsai trees and rock gardens in one episode. He was a really mellow, spiritual character that I enjoyed seeing on the show. Great actor, too.

    Linda, where are you??

    Loretta Long is an amazingly smart and educated woman, she was a very key part of the early days of the show as far and I know is very proud of her educational background. I remember seeing a television interview with her once where she was describing her parents' comical yet disappointed...

    Frank in FTB

    Agreed, Mo. Eric's done a wonderful job particularly with Grover. When I first saw his performance of him, I was more struck by how he had all of Frank's movements and physical mannerisms that he brought to the character as well as the delivery of his lines, voice, etc. He's amazing

    Major Changes in store for Sesame Street Season 46

    Yeah, I mean I don't want to criticize too much, for the simple fact I thank goodness every day the show is still on, kids still know these characters especially with the other competition out there in this day and age. I guess it's just "not what I'm used to" and I was never good with massive...

    Frank in FTB

    Yes, and I can attest to this because Frank Oz was on the set the week before I visited the with my father. Was hugely disappointed when I found that out. Kevin Clash physically performed Miss Piggy and Frank's other characters while I was there, and Frank's voice was edited in later. Was one...

    Major Changes in store for Sesame Street Season 46

    I gotta admit, I'm not happy with the overhaul of the set, but then again, I'm not in the age demographic nor watching the show regularly anymore. My biggest problem honestly was I didn't see the drawing of Mr. Hooper that's hung in Big Bird's nest area throughout all the current seasons as a...

    New Muppet Pilot in Development by Randall Einhorn (The Office, Modern Family) for ABC

    Perhaps that's what Kirk Thatcher has been posting photos from. he had pics on his Twitter and Facebook recently of him doing some kind of production shoot with the Electric Mayhem. Reading about this now all makes sense. I'd love to see this happen, I would just hope that ABC gives it a fair...
