I personally like The Angry Video Game Nerd much better. :)

I agree that it seems like television is being used as the parent. And there's stuff on TV that's not very beneficial for adults. All I can say is that Dinosaurs truly satirized that with Captain Action Figure. "Not advertising, children's programming."

I agree, it's interesting because comparing Barney today there's so many kids shows that are aimed towards younger audiences both educational and non-educational. Very different from some of the stuff from the 1990s. I still remember educational shows like Mr. Wizard, Bill Eye The Science Guy...

I know that it was Brain Froud that inspired the look for The Dark Crystal though I'm not sure if it fully inspired Dark Crystal or if Jim Henson came up with the idea for the movie before he discovered the work of Brian Froud or not. Though I know that Jim came up with the original story...

I don't remember if I've asked this before, but has the target audience changed to a more younger audience? And if so, when did this change take effect and why? I've heard somewhere that the target audience changed to a more younger audience when Elmo was getting popular.

According to Muppet Wiki, it says that both characters are Bill Barretta. Though Brian performed Samson Knight which amazes me because his voice doesn't sound like any other character I've ever heard Brain perform before.

Well the puppet designs are quite different, perhaps it's the voice and the character being a human sized pig perhaps is the coincidence. As a royal viewer of Muppets Tonight back in the 90s, I didn't get a chance to see the UK spots so the only time I seen Howard Tubman was in It's a Very Merry...

Is Tinseltown's Bobby Vegan an evolved version of Muppets Tonight's Howard Tubman?

Right, but like I mentioned did a lot of people have HBO in the 80s. Because from what I've known, HBO wasn't part of the basic cable plan. Unless Fraggle Rock was syndicated at the time.

Was this the first solo interview Frank did? I think I seen another one somewhere where Frank performs only the voices of Cookie and Grover. Amazing rare footage, thank you for sharing. :)

Being a huge Muppet / Jim Henson fan growing up in the 90s, now in my mid 20s I'm starting to learn more and more about Fraggle Rock. Unlike The Muppet Show, Muppets Tonight and Sesame Street which I seen regularly, Fraggle Rock didn't rerun in regular cable. I do remember seeing a little bit of...

Hmm, looks pretty good. I love bacon. :)

There was going to me huge ideas that Jim had for Disney besides Muppet Vision 3D. There was going to be two rides, Gonzo's Pizza Polar I think and there was going to be this half ride / half show where The Muppets educate people on how movies are made and all the information is wrong. The...

School purposes for example. Which reminds me, when I was in college a friend of mine would bring his laptop to class to take notes with and I thought that was kind of cool so I did the same. I've even seen business people using more ipads then laptops. But like you mentioned, preschool kids...

Plus it was one of Richard Hunt's final performances as Scooter. I remember there was a clip from 1991 with Gonzo, Scooter and a Disney World host. I'm not sure if it was made for the TV in the parks or if it aired on The Disney Channel. It was really funny. They make an overweight joke on Miss...

Is Muppet Stuff still at Disney near Muppet Vision 3D? I haven't gone there since 1996. I heard rumor that the pre-show was going to get changed but I'm very happy it didn't. Though I heard Muppet Vision 3D got digitally remastered so I was just curious for any who compared, did the digital re...

My friend recently went to Disney World and got to take pictures of Jim's hand prints for me. I told him this weekend to print them out for me when he got the chance :)

I have two Muppet mini posters in frames, my mother got them in a yard sale awhile back and I tried to look them up on Muppet Wiki but couldn't find any information on them. The first one is Miss Piggy Dinning with Kermit on a roof top which is attracted to a New York luxury apartment with a lot...

I noticed in the current international Sesame Street co-productions, some of the main characters are appearing on them now like Elmo, Big Bird and Grover. I was just curious how everyone felt about that. I'm sort of happy that kids from other countries would get to see Grover speaking in their...

Well it does seem like more younger and younger people are owning cell phones now a days. I didn't have a cell phone in high school but everyone else did, same with a car. Plus I think Sesame Workshop released the current episodes on a flash drive. It's interesting how that's done, I'm not sure...
