Buck: The snowman was a double joke. First, it was a spoof of the snowman narrator voiced by Burl Ives in the "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" special. Second, that puppet was initially created by Jim Henson's Creature Shop for the box-office turkey "Jack Frost." So to have him quickly...

I’ll write a full review in a couple of days, but for now here are some thoughts. (Sorry that I’m repeating what a lot of others said. I had so much to say, I typed it all out before I came here!) --One thing that I really liked about this movie: the amount of screen time given to each of the...

With all the excitement and hype about the Muppet Christmas movie tonight, I was wondering if anyone remembered that the series premiere of Dinotopia was on last night. Did anyone see it? If so, what were your thoughts on it?

Mike, Will there be an interview with them soon in CFQ (or is there one just past)?

What did the balloon look like? Did it look like the famous old balloon from the 70's, or was he wearing something/in a different position/etc.?

Warrick must be right. Sorry. I just guessed that it wouldn't cost much. Heck, I try to sell something I think people want (like Spider-Man comics) and no one buys 'em. Go figure.

It's still 10:40 p.m. here, so I managed to get this in on time. :D Happy birthday, Emmy!! Hope it was a spoovy one for you! (I don't even know what "spoovy" means, but I still think it was the most appropriate word. Don't you?)

Hey, all, a quick heads-up. SCIFI.COM's news site says that Farscape returns with new episodes on Jan. 10. Interestingly, it will now air an hour BEFORE Stergate SG-1. (SG-1 is airing in Farscape's old slot, which lead to great ratings for SG-1 and led to Farscape getting cancelled. Don't even...

Have you tried the usual routes to find them? eBay has a pretty wide selection, of course, and since the dolls (while great) wouldn't be considered "hot items," you could probably buy them relatively cheap. Flea markets and garage sales are also great places to find that stuff at bargain...

Yes, A Charlie Brown Valentine (the new one) was based entirely on old strips. Because of Schulz's desire to be the sole creative force behind his work, all future specials will also be based on his old strips (from what I've heard). It was strange that Snoopy never "spoke." The two times...

LOL!!! Now the world may never know. ;)

Hey, all, Can anyone give me an episode list for The Jim Henson Hour and for Muppets Tonight? There used to be one on this site but I can't find it anymore. I'm not talking about a full-blown guide like what's being done for TMS (though that's great and I'm looking forward to future...

Fantastic work as always, Jamie! Where on earth did you get those great pictures from? I can't remember any special or anything where they were dressed appropriately for Thanksgiving. Is it from a book maybe?

Frank's been busy. Eric Jacobson has been assigned to his characters, and from what little we've seen so far (the Weezer viceo, the MasterCard commercial), we have high hopes.

I fourth that! :) That is to say, I'm willing to give Brian a chance. His voice is actually very high (not in a bad way); his pipes seem to take after the Nebel side of the family more than the Henson's. It might be just right for Scooter. (With all due respect to Adam, he didn't sound all...

Thanks for clearing up the Ma Bear scene thing, Phil. Still disappointing, but a little less maddening when one knows the reasons for it.

Thanks, Phil! I sent it off to people I know who'd need to know that information. Do we have any idea when it might be scheduled? I'd love to check it out. :)

1. What is your gender? male 2. Do you consider yourself a Muppet fan? Absolutely. 3. Which is your favorite Muppet? (note the only choices are: Kermit,Piggy,Fozzie,Gonzo,Animal) Why are those my only choices? What if my favorite is Rowlf or Pepe? Just for that, I'm picking Fozzie Bear's mom...

If the only reason for the cuts are due to copyright issues with the songs, then why is the scene with Fozzie and Ma Bear *talking* cut from every video version?

Thanks, Butch! Even I wasn't sure of how the feet were done. :)
