In select theatres in California and Arkansas(sadly I wish there were more states), Muppets Take Manhattan will be on the big screen at Regal Theatres. It's playing at 8 different theatres in California, one in Arkansas I remember in 1984 being six years old, and seeing MTM at the theatre. I...

..but I wonder if they'll explain WHY Elmo and Rosa's dads got sent to fight in the first place? Or how many people they had to kill? The same Republicans who tried to get rid of Sesame Street and PBS( http://www.truthdig.com/eartotheground/item/20070221_bush_wants_to_gut_pbs_funding/...

http://www.muppetnewsflash.com/2008/03/henson-to-bring-late-night-sketch-show.html This doesnt appear to be Puppet Up or Late Night Buffet/Del, but a whole new adult late night puppet Henson offering under the HA! brand

It's been a decade since Phil first debuted Muppet Central online(geocities.com/muppetcentral) For a couple years online I had been scouring all over looking for good Muppet sites, and then lo and behold...I came across MC. This October marks ten years I've been been on the Muppet Central...

I was flipping through PBS in the morning recently, and I saw two commercials with Sesame characters that had a very theatrical film like look to them. One had Super Grover in it, and it looked like a spoof for a Sesame movie or something. It mentioned PBSForKids at the end The other was...

I've noticed at least three K B toy stores in malls around me have a whole section of clearance Fraggle plushes of various sizes and other merchandise, Im guessing from the 2003 Sababa era. Suncoast and Hot Topic were the main retailers carrying that stuff, and now apparently K B Toys has...

I saw this great documentary on Firefly/Serenity fans, and even it looked like total doom for their beloved franchise, they banded together and got a whole new life for Firefly. And look at the zealousy and unity displayed by Farscape fans, just a small sliver of the Henson legacy, yet with a...

Well, looks like Elmo's dad has to go kill some innocent Arabs for the government. Boy, I knew the fundamentalist conservatives and the RAND corporations(a defense/CIA company Sesame works with now) had really gotten to Sesame Street with threats of getting rid of PBS. First they make a big...

I know there's a lot of artists out there, which is quite spiffy and rad. I know the emphasis is on Muppet related art, however I'd love to see the best non Muppet related art from people on here. Here's my most recent favorite artpieces Ive done(from my webcomic http://www.neoramen.com)...

Heading into my 9th year as a regular poster, I've been reading Muppet Central and posting for 8 years this week. I just wanted to tahnk Phil again for creating something that has had such a profound effect on the direction of the Muppets, and for bringing us all together. I remember for...

You know, I have to hand it to Sesame Workshop. They got cajones the size of Texas. I saw the World According to Sesame Street, and they said they were developing Sesame Street in Afghanistan? I love how they aren't afraid to go into wartorn areas with constant chaos, and develop co productions...

I thought this article today on MSNBC.com was pretty funny: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15105377/ It's about the old school Sesame release. Ive only seen the first episode from 1969 awhile back, and thought it was great. The article at first confused me, as I thought "what could he mean...

No, creature shop wasn't involved...but this has to be one of the most astontishing and visionary trailers I've ever seen. Seriously, this is absolutely incredible...it's like MirrorMask to a whole new level: click on the quicktime link under "trailer 2"...

So folks, are the Muppets in a transitional phase, or on life support to continue linger and wither? Does anyone know of ANY Muppet or Muppet related things to be excited about in 2008? No news of any muppet projects, films, shows, merchandise, special stuff, events, etc. Dark Crystal 2 isnt...
