Still with me?
OK, it was KERMIT!!!
Just kidding. Sorry...
Cory: Yes, I do plan to attend MuppetFest '03...as much as any of us know what we're doing a year from now, that is. :)
D.W. : That really stinks about your job. Are you certain it was because you're gay? What was the job? I know you're interested in voice-acting, etc. I'm in the same boat...
Hey, all, just a quick reminder to Farscape fans not to miss tonight's episode. If you haven't seen the previews, I won't spoil it for you, but suffice it to say a VERY important character returns in tonight's episode. :)
Let us know what you think!
Hey, all,
I was just getting around to putting some photos in the album from Muppet Fest, and I discovered, much to my horror, that I couldn't remember the names of a few people! (I'm so embarrassed.)
Please take a look at this picture and see if you can help me out. I know that's Smig on...
Hey, Cory! I missed you guys too.
I didn't realize they had taken the logo off. I'm not surprised, though. You wouldn't believe how many people I talk to about Farscape sneer and call it "Muppets from Space." Obviously these are people who haven't given it a chance. If anything, they go TOO...
Thanks, D.W.! So long as I didn't miss anything important. I don't mind a certain element of mystery; what I don't like is when they never bother to explain anything, a la X-Files.
DrT13: I agree. Every other respectable genre show out there is getting the full season treatment. Farscape's...
Hey, all, sorry I've been gone so long. I hope to be back on a more permanent basis soon. But for now, I have a couple of questions that have been bugging me.
I missed the crucial second episode of the season by accident. Can someone please explain how John was reunited with Jool and Noranti...
Hey, folks, just popping in for a minute. Hope everyone's doing well.
I just wanted to let you all know that I saw Scooby-Doo a couple of weeks ago. Funny movie; more entertaining than I expected. Anyway, at one point Scooby and the gang are being chased by these voodoo demons. A rap song...
Popping in from my 3-month stay in the Goblin Kingdom...
Actually, I'm astonished. I thought most people would be in favor of a sequel and I'd have to be the voice of reason. But since people understand pretty well how it can go wrong, I'll have to emphasize the other side of the coin: yes, it...
Aaaugh! I missed it! I've been out of the loop so long. Any chance a person could hear the program even though it's no longer airing live? Does the radio have an archive on its website?
(BTW, hello, everyone -- I'm not quite "back" yet; I still have another busy week ahead of me. But I hope...
Now THAT'S exaggeration, Jamie! ;-) Brilliant from a technical standpoint, maybe, but I've always found Dark Crystal to be unbearably dull.
Guess everyone's got different definitions of "brilliant." :)
Jamie: Good point about the "get down with your bad selves" line. That was truly cringeworthy. You reminded me of something else I disliked about Space -- the inexplicably entirely retro '70s soundtrack. That, in essence, made the film sound dated before it was released. I'd rather have a...
Byron,
Don't worry, I wasn't trying to diss Janice. There's nothing wrong with being the "straight man." Kermit is often the straight man -- er, frog -- to the zanier other characters, and I don't think many would deny that Kermit is a triumph of characterization. If every character were...
Jamie,
You make some excellent points about Caper. I certainly don't mean to imply that I hate the film at all. The movie has many great moments, including the bit at the beginning where they read the credits (Fozzie: "What does A.S.C. stand for?"), and Gonzo suggests that they try what...
<<I would say yes to a laugh-track. I know they are a little obnoxious, but all network show have them. I remembering watching a few cable "sitcomesque" shows a couple years ago that went without the laughtrack and it just seemed strange. Just my thoughts.>>
Actually, Jamie, I'd have to...
Back to the original topic:
Muppet Treasure Island didn't work for me because the Muppets were again playing storybook characters. I have no problem with that in general, but we saw the Muppets too rarely in the 90's for them to not be playing themselves when we did. I loved Christmas Carol...
I'm not sure if the question is "Who do you want to be the top characters now?" or "Who do you think are the top characters now?" Quite a few people, it seems, put Piggy and Fozzie near the top of their list for "now," which would make sense for the first question but not the second. In terms of...
Of course, the funny thing about this is that the person making the poll clearly knows nothing about the Muppets. Piggy is in love with Kermit. Kermit is NOT in love with Piggy. That's what fuels all the storylines, for goodness' sakes! But the questions are written as though they've both always...
Wow. You folks are all making this a great thread so far. Thanks! (I'm just gonna leave the whole "Hello Dolly" thing alone.) ;-)
Just a few comments since the last time I got to post:
Marina: No title yet for the show. If they follow the variety format, it may in fact be called The New...
