    The Feebles

    I guess I am one of the few that enjoys the sicko humor of "Meet The Feebles". I felt that it could have used a little editing, to tighten the script up, but overall I like it.

    Muppet Show DVD season box sets announced

    I own two of the "Best of" DVDs...I am glad that I didn't buy any more since this box set is what should have been released in the first place. My biggest gripe about the DVD revolution is when companies release a DVD to hungry fans, and then a few years later release a superior vesion of the...

    Fabric search

    I am building a walk-around stage using the One Way Street book (which is very lacking) and have come to a stand still. I am having trouble finding a light/strong/opaque fabric that is either silver or gray. The stage will look like a rocketship when complete, hence the need for silver or...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets on Extreme Makeover

    More Muppets please I think that they could have shown more Muppets, but maybe it just wasn't possible to fit it all into 1 hour...and build a new house. I wish Ty made a Muppets playroom for the kids. I'll tune in tomorrow night to see how it was all done. Overall, I loved see our gang...

    Wanting to follow my dream

    I don't remember who said it, but the best way to start becoming a puppeteer is to get a puppet and practice. I am a vice president of the Cincinnati Area Puppetry Guild, and I am still learning new things all the time (I am 40 years young). So make or build a puppet, write a script, and...

    Your Thoughts: Fraggle Rock DVD

    I must call you on this buddy! First off, the part of a woman's body that a baby nurses from is a BREAST. Not a boob. Most mothers are very discreet about feeding their children, and do not "take their boobs out in the store rows". Secondly, would you eat in ANY restroom? I doubt it...

    Your Thoughts: Fraggle Rock DVD

    I will NOT buy Fraggle Rock at W*L-M*RT!!! Why don't I want to save some $? Because, Wal-Mart is an BAD company. How bad you ask? Well they claim to be "family friendly" yet will not allow mothers to breastfeed their children inside their stores. Don't believe me? Read this...

    Please Help...mobile puppet stage plans

    Does anyone have any plans to build a mobile puppet stage that they are willing to share? I am a poor puppet guy (aren't we all) that wants to try performing at street festivals this Summer. If you have any plans/tips/suggestions on building a mobile puppet stage please email me at...
