Hmm, I don't know. The voice is simular but I think Betty's voice is more high pitched. And I don't remember Betty having an accent. Though I do love those Betty Boop cartoons. Minnie the Moocher is probably my favorite. Those Flecture cartoons are super weird, even the black and white Popeye...

Oh where's the glory days of 90s Nickelodeon, they had the best shows :) Thank Nick they are bringing back the old shows on Teen Nick late at night. I was watching an episode of All That and laughing like I was growing up with the network. But yeah, I only watched 5 or 10 minutes of it too...

Awesome, thanks for the advice :)

I think it might be sort of a Brooklin accent from the 30s or 40s something like that. It's kind of like Harley Quinn's accent from Batman the Animated Series. Like I mentioned, there's something about the old New York accents I really admire. Plus the puppeteer Camille Bonora, she's one of my...

I really wanted to take the puppetry course at UCONN (University of Connecticut) years ago but my father won't fund my way there unfortuatly. But I've been mostly self taught my whole life, I've started practicing the art of TV puppetry when I was 8 or 10 of a little before that, I've done some...

The Jim Henson Hour episode.

I'm watching the show on Disney XD, I found the title on the digital cable listings. You know what this reminds me of? Cousin Skeeter and Alf. It's kind of like that in my opinion. I like the puppeteers' voice but personally I think the puppet looks too Muppet style. Unlike Cousin Skeeter who...

Tim Lagasse, looks like a familiar name. I got to look him up on Muppet Wiki :)

Who is that, that voice sounds so familiar.

So was Footlight Theater and Afternoon before Sam & Friends? I always figured that after The Junior Good Morning Show Jim put things on hold for awhile when he went to College, well except for his projects within his Puppetry class where he meet Jane of course. Also was he a Business major? I...

I remember years ago hearing that puppeteers who wanted to work for JHC would send in a puppet reel, I'm just curious if JHC still does it this way. I remember talking to an agent who represented puppeteers but told me that I had to be a part of the Guild Actors League as well as have an agent...

For some reason, he reminds me of Walter from the new Muppet movie. I didn't get a chance to see the videos yet but I'll probably watch them later.

Just curious, how does one go about creativing creator driven puppet commercials kind of like what Jim did in the 50s - 60s and even Ed May. He used to have a website called whattacharacter.com but it looks like it's no longer there anymore. He was famous for TNN's Inside Outdoors and DC...

I was just curious about a couple of things. When Jim went to college at The University of Maryland, was Jim a business major? How did Sam & Friends happen? Some sort of project for Home Makers, what was this? I think I remember this from the People Magazine Documentry from 1999 or 2000s. Was...

No problem at all. ;) I'm pretty busy with stuff myself. lol Quarry Letters galore basically. lol Anyway, there's ways to buy clay and latex cheaper then stores like AC Moore right? I remember years ago before buying stuff online, I would go to AC Moore or Michaels or some kind of craft store...

I still need to figure out how to make molds. What I used to do was buy self hardening clay and make mini puppet head and take a small can of liquid latex and an old paint brush and just cover the whole thing with it and wait for several hours then I take the rubber off like a mask. The trouble...

Some of the links are very interesting, thank you very much. Though when I was on project puppet (which I've seen a couple times before), it seems like the puppets are kind of small and there's only 3 basic heads and I guess what I want to do is make life size hand puppets both live hand and...

I got to share this with my best friend as soon as he gets back from his Disney World vacation, he's a huge fan of Transformers. :)

They were jealous that I was getting better grades probably. I remember I originally got a B- in my first week and I freaked out and I went to the teacher as I was like "This subject is my life, what I do?" and he explained he's also an english teacher and my spelling wasn't the best (I'm sure...

Cool. I've always been old school with pop culture :) Totally a nonconformist of my generation. lol
