Nice work on the castle, Laszlo! Was MindStyle the only company that had plans to produce a commercially available castle? I would have liked one, but I'm not sure I would have paid the suggested price. In your bookshelf photo, I see a wooden Chamberlain sculpture and Jen's flute. Can you tell...

"It's a hideous round thing!" - Boober Already mentioned, but I love 'em: "You are all weirdos!" "No, Christine, that's a frog. Bears wears hats."

I posted a link a few years ago, before some of you had joined Muppet Central. It is a set of photos from all of the Henson-related locations I visited in England. You can see them here: http://etphoto.smugmug.com/Henson/Muppets-in-England/ If you go up a level on the website, I have some...

There is something that annoys me, but I'm afraid I'm on the losing side of the debate. I don't understand why the Sesame Street Martians are called the Yip-Yips. Well, I understand it, but I think it's wrong. My argument is that I think the martians are saying "yep" and not "yip". Whenever they...

The article doesn't say it explicitly, but the original Fozzie puppet is now in the Polka Theatre.

When I asked one of the event hosts about it, he said there was a "scheduling conflict", which doesn't really make sense. I think the explanation Doc Hopper got is more accurate. However, I was also told that they were going to re-schedule sometime in September or October. I hope this is true -...

You can get an actual CD of Jerry's album. It is available at cdbaby.com. You will have to create an account, but they do accept Paypal. The CD comes in a nice jacket, which includes several photos from the recording sessions and others of Jerry. There are also a couple of (short) reviews on the...

Does anyone know (or have a good guess) who's performing Big Bird on Jimmy Kimmel? Is Carroll Spinney still doing live appearances? He's one performer I would still really like to meet, and it would be great if he was coming out to the west coast! -Murray

Just wanted to let any Southern California residents (or visitors) know that there will be a free outdoor screening of The Muppet Movie at the Orange County Performing Arts Center on Monday July 28. Here are the details: http://www.ocpac.org/home/Events/EventDetail.aspx?EventID=779

Frank Oz appeared on Tavis Smiley's show last night. I only caught the last half of it, but most of the interview questions were (surprisingly) about the Muppets. They even showed a couple of clips from the Muppet Show! I believe Frank was actually there to promote his movie "Death at a...

Just wanted to let you all know (if you haven't already found it) that there is some good info in one of the other threads, which is titled "Muppet Mobile Labs Launched This Week!" In it, new member Noonchester confirms that Dave Goelz did operate Bunsen during this test run of the Muppet...

Thanks for the kind words, Vic. It makes the extra work worth it. And thanks to all of you others for the great responses. It took a long time to find all of the information. I was even starting to worry I wouldn’t get it all in time! I’m sorry to say I do not know where the Muppet...

Sorry for the error. I've sent an updated file to Sylinde Bren. And there was also a question as to where the Tick-Tock Sick mp3's came from - I have the 45 rpm record and made copies from that. -Murray

Kynan, It looks like you posted here at the same time I was sending you a private message. I just wanted to thank you for the info. And I forgot to mention that I have added to the photo a comment mentioning Michelan Sisti's name, and have given you credit there as well. Beauregard, I don't...

Last Sunday topped off what has been a very good Henson year for me so far. I went to the last of three season finale shows at the Hollywood Bowl, which included Kermit and Miss Piggy as special guests. After the show I waited at the artist’s entrance for the Muppeteers to emerge, and was able...

I've put some photos of the event up on the web: http://www.picturetrail.com/gallery/view?username=etphoto -Murray

Wow, what luck! I'm headed to DC tomorrow on a business trip! I was already planning on going to the Smithsonian to see the Muppets they usually have there. And I'm also hoping to head up to the University of Maryland to see the Jim Henson statue. In addition to the Sam & Friends puppets...

The Cookie Monster cookie jar in the background was a nice touch! We had one of those in our family kitchen for as long as I can remember. -Murray

Another amusing Muppets reference by the Family Guy crew! Vic and alorindanya, there is another thread titled "Muppets On Family Guy Again!" that will let you know what Statler and Waldorf said.
