    Unstrung 11/10 in NYC

    Well, I hope they got my reservations. Is this a show that's going to be filmed? I noticed on the invite it says a release form is required to be signed.

    Unstrung 11/10 in NYC

    Yes, I did, and I hope they get my RSVP properly because in the one I got, the email link wasn't "active" so I couldn't click on it, so I copied and pasted it and responded yes, so I'm going!

    California Raisins supposedly hitting DVD

    Wow, thanks for letting us know that the Christmas special is on DVD, Zack! That's awesome! I gotta track that down now. I'm not a fan of raisins either, yet I love grapes. I remember one Halloween when the Raisins were popular, I dressed up as one to go trick or treating :) I think I was around...

    Kermit Adidas Shoes coming in November

    A sticky floored movie theater would be the last place I'd wear expensive shoes like this!

    Kermit Adidas Shoes coming in November

    Anybody else think these are HIDEOUSLY ugly? lol I like the idea of Kermit sneakers, but I'd be happy with just ones that have the little Kermit head logo on the sides. Green sneakers with the collar no less don't exactly go with many outfits lol

    California Raisins supposedly hitting DVD

    The news about the California Rasisins are legit, as TVShowsonDVD and TheDigitalBits.com which is affiliated with many industry insiders have both posted the information. My sister used to have a VHS of the Raisins Sold Out special which I think she may have gotten from an AVON catalog back in...

    Muppet Babies DVD Box Sets

    Dr. Tooth, where do you buy your DVDs from that you're paying up to $40 for series sets? I buy mine from DeepDiscountDVD.com and the most they'll be is $37, and there's free shipping.

    Puppeteering/difficulty

    Yes, I think that was part of my problem with it. I was concentrating so much on the monitor and not so much as to what I should be doing to display the proper movement on it.

    Puppeteering/difficulty

    I just took an introductory puppeteering class through Muppeteer Michael Earl's Puppet School this past weekend in NYC. I had an absolute blast, and never realized how difficult puppetry actually is, particularly the working with the reverse image on a T.V. monitor. Very confusing for someone...

    Where in the world is Caroll Spinney?

    I did too! I had met Caroll a few times previously but very brief and never got a chance to get a photo and properly talk with him until the convention last year. I was so thrilled to finally get my photo with him.

    Life-Size George Harrison Marionette

    The George marionette is AMAZING!!! As a huge fan of the Beatles as a group and all the members' solo work, to see a marionette of George Harrison and not just "Beatle George" is a delight. The likeness is incredible!!

    Muppet Show Season 4 coming in 2013

    I never said that is THE reason, I said it COULD be a reason. And again it doesn't matter what their relationship is. Contractual rights for a theme park, and contractual rights for home video are two very different things and involved different legal issues. Perhaps something with the home...

    Muppet Show Season 4 coming in 2013

    Sometimes though the legalities vary from studio to studio. Columbia House that put out the Best of DVDs in their complete format may have had a totally different contract with them than Disney does. A lot of things have changed since those Best Of's came out (and boy am I glad I held onto them...

    Will there be a big Muppet gathering this year?

    Well I think it's hard for people to organize something that far in advance, because in a lot of cases from what I've seen going to past Muppet related events, that sometimes people don't get tickets until the last minute, etc. I know before the Sesame Street 40th anniversary panel in NJ, a few...

    Muppet Show Season 4 coming in 2013

    Yeah, but that episode would be a big selling point, because then you'd have all the Star Wars fans buying the set too. I'm not saying he' d WANT to hurt the relationship, but when it comes to money, people get funny about stuff. Haven't you ever had someone pass on in your family and it turned...
