    Oscar appearance in Pearls Before Swine...

    I dearly love Pearls (or PBS - how appropriate!) I'm still holding out hope that when the new Muppet movie is out and Disney's Muppet hype is at a fever pitch that we'll see a strip with Rat & Pig commenting on how the Muppets are everywhere you look lately with the pair getting replaced by...

    Best/Worst/Weirdest/Funniest/Craziest Music Video Thread

    Two for "Best": Little Bird by Annie Lennox. Not only did being preganant not stop Annie from turning in a fun performance herself channeling her inner Liza Minelli but also featured eight Annie impersonators each adopting a different look from one of her videos (some male, some female) most...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppet Show Comic Book

    According to my local comic chain's "Shipping Next Week" list (which is always very accurate with the exception of last minute, day-of-release changes...which Boom tends to do quite a bit of these days), both The Muppet Show and Muppet Snow White's latest issues come out next week. I've said...

    Best/Worst/Weirdest/Funniest/Craziest Music Video Thread

    A lot of "worst" music videos would be ones where the entire visuals is of a concert performance of the song but the audio is the studio version. The final result always comes across poorly. The energy of the live performance gets swallowed and the song sounds weak. (Plus if they don't even...

    Underrated music

    Not only is the song underrated but so is the group. America sees them as a one-hit wonder but they've been together, making music and having hits elsewhere for years. Wonderful band that was much more than that video or that song.

    Emergency! Selling all my Muppet/Henson stuff (and more)

    Just a general update for those who've ordered something from me. (Some of you i've already contacted via email) The mailing of most of the original batch of orders got delayed due to my workplace closing and not only not paying us the money we were expecting but also upping the total amount...

    Beware of this LABYRINTH prop!

    Looks like quite a few people made the wrong guess as per the Ebay seller that always tells the truth and the one that always lies.

    You might be an obsessed Muppet fan if...

    Pretty good guess actually! I'd probably go with "To the Northwest - dirty dishes!"

    Another 'Happy Meal' Ban

    I'm just still waiting for the inevitable news report of someone suing McDonald's because the meal didn't end up making them happy.

    You might be an obsessed Muppet fan if...

    Of course a lot might depend on the line you quote! Which one do you tend to use? Anytime you pick up the phone and it's not who you were hoping it to be, you mutter, "Oh...pig!"

    EMERGENCY SALE! Selling my entire Palisades collection (and other great Henson stuff)

    Yes. Not only the state's Wage and Labor Board but also the federal Department of Labor. They've had so many people from the company contacting them they have a dedicated person working on claims from former employees. It's a waiting game though and there's no guarantee. Even if we do recoup...

    EMERGENCY SALE! Selling my entire Palisades collection (and other great Henson stuff)

    I was able to use Paypal a long time ago but too much has since changed. Not only is it more trouble than its worth (one of the most overrated things on the web) but not having a card i can tie it with and more importantly its incompatibility with webtv users just makes it impractical.

    Muppet Snow White

    Making a very educated guess here. I'd be willing to bet that Disney does own the Muppets that were included in the MuppetTelevision segments of JHH (heck, that's where Clifford made his debut - as a fellow Solid Foam bandmate to Beard no less - and that sure hasn't stopped him from appearing...

    EMERGENCY SALE! Selling my entire Palisades collection (and other great Henson stuff)

    Thanks for the bump. What's happened in the meantime has been pretty much continuing to go downhill. The company i worked for closed and they strung us along right up to the last moment making us think we were going to be paid and have jobs but they pulled it out from us all at the last...

    Unofficial Picture Thread!

    I don't have a lot of photos i can share since (1) i tend to be very camera shy and pictures of myself are rare enough as a result on its own and (2) i have super-old equipment and thus no ability to scan photos on my own so any pix of me on the web would be ones scanned by others. But at any...

    UK: Disney.co.uk - Muppets.com!

    I'm very happy to hear this. Muppets.com is so full of wonderful Muppety goodness and should not be limited to one country! On the one hand i'm so excited for the UK'ers to finally get to experience this but i'm also thinking "Dang - what took so long?" and i'm guessing this is just the UK as...

    Alphabet Chat Thread

    I loved the Alphabet Chats when i was a kid. There were only a few of them. Then in the early 90's when Jerry Nelson was doing a lot on Sesame (probably to overcompensate for the losses of Jim and Richard plus Frank's limited availability) many Jerry characters that hadn't been seen in a while...
