    It's Official: Series 9 & 10 Announced!

    Actually, I believe they have the liscense for all the TMS-related movies, shows and specials now, which would include JHH (someone correct me if I'm wrong). The only reason they haven't done any JHH figures is because that's a really obscure show and they have a lot more figures to get through...

    Henson talking to Disney and Viacom for potential partnership deals

    But if Viacom deals with Henson, they'll most likely slot them in their Nick Jr. programming, thinking they're on the same level with Fairly Oddparents or something. When TMS aired on Nick in the early 90's, that was where they were slotted.

    Henson talking to Disney and Viacom for potential partnership deals

    I'm with Kev. As long as it's not a buyout, I'm cool with it. I don't want the same people who mismanaged Disney's feature animation department to be in charge of the Muppets. However, Columbia TriStar hasn't been all that great for the Muppets. They need someone with a big marketing reach, and...

    Happy birthday, Mickey Mouse!

    Well, it's 11:50 p.m. by my clock, so there's still just enough time to post this today. A major milestone: the first Mickey Mouse cartoon, "Steamboat Willie," was released 75 years ago today (Nov. 18, 1928). Happy birthday, Mickey!

    Gonzo's Species

    Nobody knows. That's one of the many, many problems with MFS: the whole movie is supposed to be about finding out where Gonzo is from. In the end, we learn...he's from space. Which is what we knew from the title of the film anyway.

    Rumor: John Denver & the Muppets Christmas DVD

    Well, "taking a holiday" is another way to say "going on vacation." That was the meaning they were going for, though clearly more than one person has been confused by the title. Even the video stores often put this one in the "Holiday" section.

    Happy Kermit the Frog Day!

    As has been pointed out on TP, it was a year ago today that Kermit got his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The mayor (?) declared that day was Kermit the Frog Day. That's as good as an annual holiday for me. So...happy Kermit the Frog Day, everyone! (Especially to Kermit.)

    Rumor: The Muppet Wizard of Oz

    Exciting update! Hey, guys, just got this from Secret Squirrel over at TP: "Wizard of Oz. It's for ABC. Kirk will direct." For those of you who don't know, Secret Squirrel is an anoymous poster who may work for the Henson Company (Phil may know for sure; we don't). At any rate, his info...

    Rumor: John Denver & the Muppets Christmas DVD

    I apologize -- I forgot you might need some clarification since you're new. Phillip Chapman is the creator of this website and the head moderator of the forum. The Kermit logo he uses for his onscreen icon is very recognizable (when you've seen it a few times). When Phil says something, you know...

    Cyndi Lauper - At Last!

    Sigh -- Cyndi, Cyndi, Cyndi. Sweet, beautiful, adorable Cyndi. I've been thinking about her a lot lately. I was just watching The Goonies DVD with her music videos on it, and my roommate just played me a RealOne video of (of all things) "We Are the World." (I have no idea why he did this; he...

    List of Brian Henson intros

    Yeah! I noticed that when going through the Season 2 guide. I had seen the same intros over and over so many times, I just assumed I'd seen them all. I was astonished to read about all the ones I'd missed. I wish they could have used more of a variety of intros for the Time-Life collection...but...

    Rumor: John Denver & the Muppets Christmas DVD

    Jent and Rockie, Re-read Phil's post again (#17). I think you missed something. :smirk: It's *definitely* not out now, nor is it going to be released this holiday season at all. So don't wear out the soles of your shoes looking for it anymore. ;) If it's released next year, MC will be...
