    New Muppet Movie to be Filled with Cameos

    No you're not. I don't think packing this film with celebrities is going to make people flock to this. Of course part of the reason I go to see any film is to see certain actors and so forth, but not the sole reason. I just really hope this film will be good and prove me wrong on my not so...

    Steve Whitmire with Avenue Q?

    I agree, I think he might be thinking of Rick Lyon.

    Spencer's Muppet Merchandise

    I had mixed feelings about the Glee episode. I thought the music was done very well. I had no issue with the girl playing Frank, because many females do play Frank at the local theaters. My biggest gripe was the changing around/cutting of some of the lyrics to the songs and not enough screentime...

    Steve Whitmire with Avenue Q?

    I never heard of Steve performing in Ave. Q. Because of his busy schedule, it would've been impossible for him to do the show for a certain amount of performances. It's highly possible he was at a performance and they brought him up on stage and he gave a speech. I'm sure he went to see it at...

    Spencer's Muppet Merchandise

    Spencer's is a bizarre stuff. They have a lot of novelty/junk stuff, a lot of racy and "adult" stuff, and then you find fun/nostalgia type stuff like the Muppet items mentioned here (I gotta go get Kermit socks now) I'm also a big Rocky Horror fan and in the past have gotten some cool Rocky...

    Caroll Spinney (Oscar & Big Bird) Art Exhibit at the Toonseum

    I really enjoyed meeting Noel at the Toonseum booth at the NY Comic Con. He was one of the nicest, most pleasant guys I've met not only affiliated with the Muppets but in general, and seemed to be having alot of fun.

    Guest Stars: Who Enjoyed It & Who Didn't?

    Dw, have you ever seen the TV movie "Mother Goose Rock N' Rhyme" with the all star cast playing the nursery rhyme characters? Little Richard plays Old King Cole and he looks like he's having a ball on that too. :)

    Guest Stars: Who Enjoyed It & Who Didn't?

    When I met Valerie Harper at the annual Broadway flea market back in 2005, I mentioned to her I enjoyed her appearance on the show and she lit up like a Christmas tree and gushed about how much fun she had on the show. :) She said she loved dressing up like Marilyn Monroe, etc. for the one...

    You're welcome. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

    Halloween Bear

    Hi, no I don't have MP3's of them and not sure how I'd be able to get them. I'm not really savvy with that stuff I'm afraid to say :o

    Louise Gold: Scheduled for 2'Wheel Appeal's Charity Fundraiser

    That sounds like a wonderful event, Emma! Are you going? I would love to see Christopher Biggins since he has connections with Rocky Horror :)

    Halloween Bear

    I worked on this episode when I was a Jim Henson Company workshop intern back in 1999! I built props for the show (all the little goodies the characters get while trick or treating and the chocolate corn on the doors of the character's houses :)) Bear wore a blonde Goldilocks type of wig...

    Where in the world is Caroll Spinney?

    I met him on Sunday, and got a pic with him. Really very genuinely nice man and he took a lot of time with people. I had him sign my The Wisdom of Big Bird book....and I'm delighted to have finally gotten him to sign it after all this time. Plus I found out I have a first edition printing of the...

    Where in the world is Caroll Spinney?

    When I contacted Joe who's running the Toonseum booth, he told me Carroll will have the books, sketches and photos to sign for people.

    RIP Michael J. Smollin

    Aw, that's sad. 85, though he lived a good many years. Very talented artist!

    Is There Anything Muppety To Do In New York?

    There's not TOO many Muppet related places to visit in New York. You can always visit the places featured in Muppets Take Manhattan since most of those are huge touristy type places anyway like Empire State Building, etc. You can always visit the Church of St. John the Divine where Jim's...

    Katy Perry song banned from Sesame Street Season 41

    I also think people whining about the dress is ridiculous. Yes, she showed some cleavage, but it wasn't anything extravagant. The clothes they have for kids today are ridiculous, and I'm sure some (and I say some, not all) of the parents out there who are complaining are the same ones will buy...

    "Muppet History 101" with Dave Goelz & Gonzo in St. Louis Oct 1st

    Ah, thank you for the explanation. I'm not in the area so I won't be giong anyway, but I'm glad to hear it's back on. I've met Dave a couple of times now (and Gonzo too) and he's a really nice guy.
