    How to Clean Vintage SST Plushes

    I still have my original Fisher Price Bert and Ernie dolls from the 70s, and my Muppet Show Kermit with the velcro hands. I USED to also own an original Cookie Monster, Herry Monster and Super Grover dolls that I stupidly tossed many years ago.

    Video: Kermit Does Ice Bucket Challenge

    I love this video!! I posted it to my Facebook page yesterday. I love the sight of just his little foot at the end. Does anyone also think Steve's voice sounded like Bean Bunny's towards the end a bit when it got more high pitched as the water shocked him? lol

    What is a capitol fourth?

    It's a special that airs every year that is live from Washington D.C. celebrating the 4th of July. This year, Kermit, Fozzie, Miss Piggy and Animal were on as special guests

    I Am Big Bird Questions

    I'd like to at least see them distribute this film on Netflix like they did with Being Elmo. I've heard so many wonderful things about this movie, that I'm really pining to see it !

    Jim Henson's Creature Shop Challenge Episode 4: Heads Up

    I don't think it had anything to do with his family being unsupportive, but to me it sounded like he had young children that he didn't want to completely uproot their lives to move to another state, even if it DID mean getting his dream job. We don't really know the details of what his personal...

    Kermit on The Sam Roberts Show: A MUST listen!

    I always thought improvised Kermit (and actually any of the characters), especially in non-family friendly appearances was the best over the years. All the appearances he's done on variety shows, etc. back in the 70s, etc. I think that's when he and the peformer (whether it be Jim or Steve)...

    Kermit on The Sam Roberts Show: A MUST listen!

    I'm a HUGE Opie and Anthony fan which Sam is a producer for, and then hosts this after show every day on Sirius XM. I had no idea Kermit was on, as I usually tune out once Sam takes over the studio everyday. But he does have a great sarcastic sense of humor so I'm looking forward to listening to...

    Jim Henson's Creature Shop Challenge Episode 2: Return of the Skeksis

    I have to say I'm really enjoying this show so far. So impressive to see all these talented people turnout these creatures within such a short time span! I was never a big fan of Dark Crystal, but I do think the characters and technology is amazing and it was really cool to see them recreate the...

    Your Thoughts: "Muppets Most Wanted" Theatrical Film

    Might be going again to see it this week with my husband as he hasn't seen it yet, and I've been raving about it since last Thursday when i saw it. By the way, for those who ordered the film through Fandango's website, you get a free download from Itunes to download the song Cockatoo in Malibu...

    Your Thoughts: "Muppets Most Wanted" Theatrical Film

    I saw it at an early screening last night in NYC. Without ruining anything for others, I have to say this film made me really, really happy. I'm an old school fan and while I don't want to say I've disliked stuff since Jim Henson passed, because that's not entirely true, the films to me since...

    Henson Company Card 2013!

    Wow, this is AMAZING artwork. What a beautiful job, and what an honor I'm sure to have designed this for them. How did you get approached to design this for them? I love all the little hidden characters in the background, especially the silhouette of the storyteller and his dog!

    Got a response from the Sesame Puppeteer Workshop...

    I also submitted a video and received a rejection email, but like you, I'm also genuinely ok with it. I really didn't expect to get chosen with so many people applying, the limited space, and the amount of people with more experience. I just wanted to at least try and see what happened.

    Guess it's about time: From the REAL Greg Berg

    Hi, Greg: I just wanted to say "Hello" and express to you the joy you've brought me over the years using your vocal talents in many of the cartoons I've enjoyed over the years. Aside from growing up with the Muppets, I was a diehard (and still am) a big fan of Garfield, and I loved your work as...

    TV Alert: "A New York Christmas to Remember" honoring Jane Henson airs Christmas Eve

    I watched it when I came home Christmas night on my DVR, and I thought it was absolutely beautiful. I thought the puppetry was amazing and loved the little mannerisms and movements the puppeteers gave to them, that they still had personality even though we didn't hear them speak. Like the...

    Your Thoughts: Lady Gaga and The Muppets Holiday Spectacular on ABC

    I finally had the chance to sit and watch this special on my DVR last and I was honestly very disappointed. Let me start off by saying, I consider myself more an old school Muppet fan, but I do try to support the new material and give it a shot, but this was just very lackluster. While I'm not a...

    Have You Seen the Cast in Other Projects?

    Yep, I've seen many a Sesame St. cast member in other stuff. I've seen two Broadway plays where Alan was either an understudy or part of the ensemble: My Favorite Year and the King And I. I've seen episodes of 227 with Alaina Reed, I've seen Alison Bartlett recently in a GREAT indie horror movie...

    Sesame Street General Store

    I used to love our local Disney store (same mall that had the Sesame general store, actually). We still have a Disney store there, but it's been severely watered down and caters now mainly to kids' toys and clothes and almost all of anything classic Disney related is now gone. It's all now...
