    Katy Perry song banned from Sesame Street Season 41

    Well said. 99.9% of the monitoring going on is the pressure because of people like you described weighing in on these networks, producers, etc. and forcing the lawyers and censors involved with these projects to get really paranoid and jump on the "We can't do THAT" band wagon. It's total lunacy.

    Where in the world is Caroll Spinney?

    You're welcome. I have met him a couple of times but very briefly and I still have yet to get a nice picture with him which I'm hoping for when I go.

    Katy Perry song banned from Sesame Street Season 41

    Totally agree, it's ridiculous. I am all for protecting children from horrible things, but our country has gotten so paranoid and PC about every little thing our children see. And like you said, half of them don't understand what they're seeing or hearing. Yes, today's kids are a bit more...

    Where in the world is Caroll Spinney?

    I emailed him actually to get more info about the appearance and panel and told them I heard about it here. Thank you so much for the heads up, though!

    The Influence of Bonnie Erickson

    Not at all, I have to agree with you on that one. All the folks you mentioned are probably the ones most responsible for the Muppet style and look we know so well.

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

    I thought this was canceled? I'm not trying to confuse things but I had read somewhere online that it was changed?

    Muppeteers at New York Comic Con 2010!

    Agreed since I had no idea he was going to be there until your post! I emailed the Toonseum and they said all the panel members will be signing throughout the weekend and Caroll will have drawings, and pictures for sale and will be posing for photos. There is no cost to get a pic with him...

    The Influence of Bonnie Erickson

    She is definitely very talented. I am surprised you never came across her name in perhaps most notably in the credits for "The Muppet Show".

    Muppets on Extreme Home Makeover

    My sister just called me to tell me the Muppets were on Extreme Home Makeover. Since I don't watch much T.V. these days, does anyone know if this was new or a repeat?

    A question about Wolfgang the seal ?

    Well, he was originally created to be featured as a Sesame Street character. These comic books are relatively new.

    Where in the world is Caroll Spinney?

    I never heard of that convention either. I'm not sure if there's one comprehensive site that lists all kinds of fan conventions because there's so many different ones out there, from horror to sci-fi to generic movie ones or ones themed after just a particular movie or T.V. show. Some of the...

    New Awesome Muppet T-Shirts!

    I've bought shirts from this site in the past. It depends what size you buy, but I'd suggest NOT putting them in the dryer when you wash them and just let them air dry. I never had their shirts shrink on me, but i have had ones on other sites. You especially gotta be careful if you buy the girls...

    Muppet Show Season 4 coming in 2013

    I understand some of what you're saying, Dr. Tooth. You're right, many of the studios are just going to start doing the online thing. Amazon already has a deal with Sony and Universal where they're putting movies on their site for downloads OR are producing movies on demand and printing DVDs as...

    Muppet Show Season 4 coming in 2013

    It's unfortunate it may not come out this year, but on the other hand, they may legally not be able to explain WHY there is the hold up. It could be a number of reasons. Things just don't happen overnight unfortunately. I work in the DVD industry myself, and projects I worked on for clients...
