I wonder how they would do the Labyrinth itself though. It would take some creative scenary to pull it off.

Caroll Spinney is not part of the core group of muppeteers that Jim hired on to do the Muppet Show and other shows. He has always been part of Sesame Street and though I consider him a muppeteer his main work has always been with Sesame Street and not with a lot of other Muppet activities.

I had a set of those before I sold them at a garage sale. They're relatively easy to find, I think.

I've only heard of Time Piece. Can anyone shed a little light on the others?

40 more! woo hoo! YEAH! PARTY! I'll go work on my posts now and once I'm a senior member I shall take over the board!

I've wondered that myself. Any of our esteemed artists want to give it a shot?

You know one of these days I am going to write a Jim Henson biography to out do all other Jim Henson biographies!

Yeah, that Gags Bigsley sure knows how to tell jokes! Is the name Gags Bigsley a joke in itself too? Harley Towers, you have solved one of the oldest mysteries in the universe!

A red Kermit. I like that. Red is his color after green.

It will be nice to see something new. I hope that it goes into more depth than his previous biographies, most of which were for children other than Jim Henson: The Works.

http://www.queenofwands.net/d/20060304.html Sorry about that!

I want one now. It would come in hnady should I ever loose all of my hair.

You can't really blame Frank in that sense. He and Jim were excellent partners and for Frank it was probably like someone had chopped off one of his hands and he needed to learn how to perform solo when it came to Bert and Ernie.

Matt Vogel is another muppeteer who plays Big Bird. He has been doing the Journey to Ernie segments. It's kind of approiate that Matt is doing Big Bird, since his last name means bird in German.

I never knew that the actor who played David left to do other things, I thought he was still on the show when he died. They replaced Miles too? I thought he and Gabi are played by the same people since they first appeared on Sesame Street.

Web comics are fun especially when you find hidden tidbits to stuff you like. I found this Labyrinth parody: http://www.queenofwands.net/d/20060306.html. The comic is for March 6 if that doesn't work. It's from a web comic called Queen of Wands and there is also a Sesame Street parody here...

I'm a RENT freak! I have Angel's Christmas costume on my to do list. Hey, can I have a few cameos in the sitcom? If you need any writers I can help. :)

I'm surprised they haven't done another episode like that or put the Mr. Hooper episode on VHS. They've done a hurricane episode twice to my recollection, but then again death is a touchy subject and they may feel one episode was enough.

Well, you have to realize that Caroll Spinney has been performing Big Bird for nearly half a century and it will take awhile for Matt to gain the same proficiency as Caroll. Do you have a clip of that episode?

I thought that Frank refused to play Bert to anyone else's Ernie after Jim died.
