    The Muppet story

    Kermit's old assisstant Scooter. Kermit knew he would be able to rely on his old friend to help him organise a new muppet show. After a very long Journey, they arrived at Scooter's house - but were shocked when they found a note pinned to his front door. It read.....................

    The most ludicrous muppet fact...

    Hi Guys! I was reading 'Jim Henson: Muppet Master' by Nathan Aaseng and there was a bit that talked about Miss Piggy being different to Kermit because she is able to hold things and needs two operators - one for the head and one hand, and another for the other hand. This is, obviously, not...

    Well, I just pre-ordered KSY...!

    Hi Guys! I thought I would share this with you - even though I am not sure how much I am going to like it. I expect I will be disappointed - I think most people will be when they first see it because we all get so excited about it, talk about it for ages on here and then it becomes this...

    Puppet Noses?

    Thanks officermom there are some great ideas for me to try there. Just one question, and I may be being really stupid here, but what are NERF BALLS? I keep hearing them mentioned (especially in the Foam Book), and I don't think I have ever seen them! I don't think we have them in...

    Puppet Noses?

    Hi Guys! I am currently building some puppets (as you know I have posted before about them) and I am a bit stuck when it comes to the noses. I would like the noses to be 'Muppet Style' Noses, like on Ernie, Bert, Elmo, Herry Monster, Grover and the like - you know, that very simple style...

    The most tear-jerking Muppet moment...

    Hi everyone, Just to add to my original list - I've just seen the Tiny Tim scene in MCC and it's awfully sad - the whole scene as Kermit/Bob talks about the ducks on the lake, talking about the first parting etc. and then the music as the camera slowly pulls down to show the empty chair with...

    Favourite Muppet-song ever

    I think my favourite muppet song is 'Happy Feet' just because it is so clever. On the Of Muppets and Men documentary Henson says how they are playing a game with the viewer - trying to create a reality that doesn't really exist and they really suceed with this one... Think about it - a tap...

    Weezer's Muppet Show video now on-line

    I really enjoyed this video - although the stream did get a bit 'juddery' at times! I agree with the earlier comments that it really did recreate the feeling of the muppet show and the more I see and hear Jacobson's Miss Piggy - the more impressed I get with it! You know, I wouldn't be too...

    The most tear-jerking Muppet moment...

    Hi Guys! Following on from the 'Best ever Muppet Moment' thread - I would be interested to hear what are all your most 'tear-jerking' moments - you know when you're watching with someone else and have to look away before you break down into an uncontrollable wreck....anyway I digress! For...

    Hey, I just found something on the MFS DVD!

    Thanks! I aim to please - I just thought I would share this with you guys, at the same time thinking I was the only one who hadn't found them - ah, to think that one post can bring so much joy....it's scary, don't you think? Guy!

    Question for Warrick (or anyone else who knows!!)

    Hey, Warrick, You seem to have an absolute wealth of knowledge about the muppets so I just thought I would ask as a fellow Brit if you knew whether or not we would be getting a release of Kermit's Swamo Years or the new MTI or MCC DVDs that everyone has been talking about. I really hope we...

    Hey, I just found something on the MFS DVD!

    I was browsing through my DVD of MFS today and thought I would have a look at the outtakes and completely by accident stumbled across another two pages of outtakes I never knew where there!!! I expect this was different on the US release, but in the bottom right hand corner of the screen was...

    Piggy advetising Virgin Atlantic

    Hi! I saw an advert (in the UK) for Virgin Atlantic Airlines by Miss Piggy - I don't think it is new, but it is the first time I have seen it! - and was just wondering if this was Eric Jacobson's piggy. If so - it is really good and sounds just like Frank's Piggy. Just Wonderin'! Guy!

    Muppet Film and TV References

    Just remembered a couple from the NBC Sitcom 'Frasier' starring Kelsey Grammer. 1. Roz (the call screener at the radio station) is taking calls on the PBS Pledge Night and is talking to a kid saying 'No! Lamb Chops not here...BIG BIRD ISN'T HERE EITHER....' 2. Frasier and Niles are both...

    Covering Puppets with Fleece

    Hi Guys! I recently acquired some fleece - not antron - but has a nice stretch to it. I will be using this to cover the puppet heads that I am making. This is a question for the puppet building experts among us (and I know you're there!). If making from foam [especially using the...
