The Disney Fountain store across from Kodak Theater/Hollywood Walk of Fame, right...
You've all heard about the Disneyland and Disneyworld park layoffs, where more than a thousand salaried employees were terminated.
But, word has it that a lot of these people were long time loyal employees with intimate knowledge and loyalty that cant be replaced.
And when I say long time, I...

Believe it or not, there has been a number of seriously cool, hidden and or no longer in operation Muppet sites a lot of you may have never seen.

Even though most the performers are Muppet...

documentary film about Chuck E Cheese's main compeditor(and eventual partner) ShowBiz Pizza Time and the fan community...
Since 2002, Muppet/Jim Henson fans online have always anticipated Toy Fair in New York. Like what beamed in photos from Mars rovers are to NASA and astronomy enthusists, pictures and news from Toy Fair is always exciting to Muppet/JH fans. Whether you prefer Muppet Show, Fraggle Rock, Creature...
What are some of the Muppets, perhaps obscure, that you'd like to see come back for a Muppet online short/tv show/film/special/ect?

I tuned into Jimmy Kimmel tonight, and he showed this clip of Pepe

It was exactly 10 years ago this week that I started reading Muppet Central and joined the forums(the old Delphi forums before the April 2002 current ones)
