    "Yeah, verily"

    I think it's actually "yea, verily" (no "h" at the end of the first word). "Yeah" is more modern English, "yea" would be the mideveal pronounciation/spelling. Hope that helped.

    Your Thoughts: Ed Sullivan Muppets Magic DVD

    Hi, HerryGrail! Yes, I'm familiar with GoodTimes' VHS releases, and they seem to take a kind of perverse pride in doing the sloppiest job possible. It's just a weird irony in this case, as the content that they're distributing is something much sought-after by collectors. If they were just...

    Anybody else having trouble finding the Storyteller DVD?

    Hmm. A friend of mine who's been looking for the Sullivan DVD to no avail tells me he's seen the Rocky Mountain DVD everywhere he's gone (which knowing him would include Best Buy, Target, Suncoast, etc.). I didn't specifically ask about Storyteller.

    When did Link get a new outfit?

    Sorry, I don't have a scanner. :( Perhaps some kind person with a scanner and a copy of The Works will read this and be able to help you out. And sorry, but I'm not sure what "two monsters" you're talking about. I don't see them in this picture and I don't know which other picture you might...

    What happened to Frank Oz?

    I should have noted that the same source that confirmed he was ill confirms that Jerry is doing just fine now. Yayyy! :excited:

    The Disney afternoon of our youth

    DuckTales was AWESOME. TaleSpin was even better, if that's possible. Darkwing was fun if not quite up to the level of the other two. Chip 'N' Dale skewed a little young for me but was still fairly enjoyable. I didn't care for Goof Troop at all (though I liked the movie, oddly enough)...

    What happened to Frank Oz?

    Thanks for your kind words, Daffyfan. :) Narpin: Because of Frank's limited availability, Muppet productions have in recent years tried to avoid featuring Frank's characters heavily. Muppet fans have noticed (and complained), and the general public has unconsciously responded by changing...

    Muppets In Wonderland?

    That's right, the Doormouse was a chicken. Hilarious casting against type! It's been too long, I had forgotten that.

    When did Link get a new outfit?

    One thing I hadn't noticed before: this is NOT the same pic as the one used in the front of The Works, in the dedication just before the table of contents. I've seen both photos before, and because they're all Jim characters (many of the same ones are used), and because they're all holding...

    VeggieTales creators bankrupt, sell to Classic Media

    Sorry, I don't have any more information at the moment, but I'll let you know if I hear anything. I'm tempted to say they sold for $680 million, but that's just my sick sense of humor. ;)

    Muppets In Wonderland?

    Gonzo was the Mad Hatter. A nondescript bunny was the March Hare (played by Steve Whitmire). I could be wrong, but I believe the Tea Mouse was Rizzo (with no lines, of course). Scooter appeared as the knight in a reindition of "Jabberwocky," the famous poem from that book. Dr. Teeth was...

    Get well soon, Frank

    Very sad. I hope it's not as bad as it sounds. :cry: GET WELL SOON, FRANK!

    MuppetFest 2?

    Thanks for the update, Secret Squirrel. Some people here had suspected as much. Oh, well. Maybe if they ever do another one they can record it. And maybe we can see little snippets in upcoming retrospectives and DVD collections! Here's hoping...

    Anyone going to DragonCon? (Farscape related)

    Hey, all, Anyone besides me going to Dragon*Con in Atlanta this weekend? We've got several guests from Farscape coming including Anthony Simcoe (D'Argo) and Lani Tupu (Crais, and the voice of Pilot). We've also got at least one panel discussing the cancellation of the series and our hopes for...

    Your Thoughts: Ed Sullivan Muppets Magic DVD

    Fascinating. So Elmo merchandise now COMPETES with Kermit merchandise on the shelves? It sounds like you're saying SS toys had to have a specifically educational purpose in the past, whereas now they can just be cute things to hug. Of course, I remember from growing up that a lot of my SS toys...

    Problems with vBulletin

    Well, that's what I'd tried before, and I was still getting weird unwanted messages. But I just checked, and at the moment the only threads I'm subscribed to now are the Sullivan DVD thread and this one. So hopefully that will hold (that is, I won't get any more old threads). At any rate, thanks...

    Problems with vBulletin

    Why is it that when I post in a brand new thread that I'm really interested in (the Sullivan DVD thread, in this case), I DON'T get e-mail notification of new postings, yet I still get notifications about someone posting in, say, a "Left-Handedness" thread from two years ago? Even after I've...
