    Muppets Auditions Sept 2005+

    I think testing for voice first would have been a smart thing also if they were willing to train someone to be a Muppeteer. However in this current audition they didn't want to teach the Muppet style of puppetry to some one who could do voices. They wanted somone already prepared in the...

    'Sesame Beginnings' Video

    Check out this link for some new video called 'Sesame Beginnings'. It's the SS Muppets as babies. Looks pretty interesting. http://www.sesameworkshop.org/sesamebeginnings/mini/peek/ They have a QuickTime preview on the site or here's the link to download it to your hard drive. It's 6...

    Jim's Final Resting Place

    Oh I agree. For adoring fans (regardless of who the celebrity is) they feel better knowing where someone they cared for ended up in life. Also many famous tombs are visited respectfully by fans around the country and leave flowers. Forrest Lawn in Los Angeles pehaps being the most famous...

    Your Thoughts: Kevin Clash on Oprah

    While it's true Kevin didn't have any time to really talk, I do believe that as soon as his fame and money were mentioned he should have stated that 'no man is an island', in other words he should have mentioned that there is a great support team behind him at Sesame Street & Henson that have...

    Jim's Final Resting Place

    In the past I read here at MC that Jim was cremated and his ashes spread over some ranch the family owns out in the southwest. But the news article below says he is buried in a cemetery in New York. Both can't be right and wrong? "...People have asked for spaces near Malcolm X at Ferncliff...

    Here's a picture of him I found on the web. Boy did he change! Cigarettes and booze will do everyone in all the time. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/photo/2006/03/02/PH2006030200905.html

    Laura Bush visits India Sesame Street

    Yes, I read on line that 'Boombah' is supposed to be a cuddly lion. The other Muppets are named Chamki, Googly, Aanchoo. I've read two interviews for the India Sesame Street where they quote Marty Robinson. Perhaps he was over there supervising the casting.

    Rivkin in the news

    I agree, the company never did grow under his leadership. It does seem his new job (while still a CEO) is a big step down from his Henson job.

    Rivkin in the news

    Former Muppet CEO Rivkin is mentioned on a website. Was he a lame CEO? I always thought he split before Disney had a chance to fired him. Anyway here's what he's up to if anyone cares: Wild Brain buys stake in Kidrobot San Francisco animation studio Wild Brain is acquiring a majority...

    Statler and Waldorf On Great Day SA

    As far as I know, this would be Yerrid and Massey's first time on TV performing S&W. Would be interesting if for TV and movies they reverted back to Steve and Dave.

    Your Thoughts: Kevin Clash on Oprah

    Well it was nice to see Kevin on the show. Seems with age, his neck has gotten thicker. But overall he looked good. I have to admit an hour show and they only give Kevin 5 minutes of air time is not cool. But like most interviewers, they haven't a clue what to ask a puppeteer. Also I...

    RIP Darren Mc Gaven

    Much to my pleasant surprise, last week, here in the USA, the Sci-Fi cable channel aired at least two Kolchak:The Night Stalker episodes. I hadn't seen them in years. They were good! I don't see them listed this week though.

    Kevin Clash on Oprah

    Since Oprah is a syndicated show, it's probably not on the DISH Network but instead carried by one of your local TV stations. I did a search on the web to see where Oprah airs in the Abilene-Sweetwater area. Supposedly in your area Oprah can be seen over-the-air on station WTAB channel 32 at...
