They had 'em all over the country. I'm in New York and they had one in Long Island where I live

I doubt it, according to recent interviews that are online with John Tartaglia who hosted and helped organize the last one, he said it was a very HUGE undertaking to get three companies involved to do it, plus next year I'm sure the folks at Disney are going to be busy promoting the next Muppets...

Thanks for posting. I was wondering if those were the same puppets from that video that never got made. I remember asking Bowie himself during a Yahoo chat years ago the background story of those puppets, etc. and he said that actually a video HAD been filmed for "The Pretty Things Are Going to...

Agreed, and btw, love your avatar, Dr. Tooth...

Having taken dancing lessons as a child (ballet and jazz/tap) it's very common that dance instructors are no-nonsense types. Look at the movie "Fame" for example how tough all the teachers were,that's culled from real life. Anything in the performing arts, the teachers are strict as any kind of...

I've read that Jeff Dunham has used these new 3D printers to build some of his characters. I find the whole thing amazing.

No idea what episode, but I do know it was probably around after the 25th season as that's around the time I was still watching regularly, and I remember this segment. If I remember correctly, there was also a bit with Ernie and Christopher as well?

That is awesome. Thanks for letting us know. I have a copy of this on tape, and while I never got big into Fraggle Rock although I admire the characters, this is a great behind the scenes special. I'm a little out of touch with Itunes purchases: do you happen to know if once you purchase...

Happy birthday to the master.

Steve, have a great one, hope to see you again soon!

I tracked this book down for YEARS, finally found it I think online and very happy to own it. It's a good read as well as a great movie!

That is AWESOME, Philip! I gotta check out ITunes more often (I'm not really a Itunes/Apple product owner), but between this, the classic Sesame episodes, etc. this is great! My sister used to go crazy over the dinosaur in Living with Dinosaurs lol I hope they add that!

I recently gave the last release of Xmas Toy to my cousin's children, because of the Kermit omission. I taped it off of Nickelodeon years ago WITH Kermit's scenes included, and recently transferred it to DVD. So I'd rather keep the real thing in a bit lesser video quality than the cleaner/edited...

Yeah, GopherCoffee's point was there's no regular Henson/Muppet fan mail address anymore. Yes you can reach some of them through the Sesame offices, but that's about it.

Yeah Brian's really nice to the fans. Did you enjoy Puppet Up? I LOVED the show when I saw it. I hope they bring it back to NYC again soon.

Congratulations, Chris, on meeting Brian Henson! Where did you see him? I've met him twice now, once at a live performance of Stuffed and Unstrung (aka Puppet Up!) and once at a taping for Celebrity Apprentice. He was very nice about taking a pic with me as well.

Brian Henson's been busy developing other projects with the Jim Henson Company, as opposed to Disney, and is also very actively involved with the touring company of the Puppet Up! aka Stuffed and Unstrung troupe of performers. I also believe he's involved with that new puppet game show in the UK....

I agree Johnny was a great character for Bill Barretta because he got to sing, and Bill brought such great traits to him as a character.

Ah, ok. Oh I didnt' realize Brian Henson is no longer involved at all. Well, then I guess he should be recast.

I'm more about getting photos with the performers these days rather than getting autographs, but out of the Muppet performers who's autographs I DO have: Steve Whitmire's, Carroll Spinney's, Jane Henson, Cheryl Henson, Kevin Clash, Jerry Nelson and my personal achievement: Frank Oz's seen in my...
