:wisdom: What is important it comfortable shoes. At the end of the day a woman shouldn't have chafed heels and gnarled toes from their Jimmy Choos. Not only is it unattractive, ill-fitting shoes can cause foot, leg, hip and back problems later in life and high-end designers can be just as guilty...

:crazy: He also says Alan Alda ruined M*A*S*H. I agree with you and never cared much for his reviews before he wrote this book. He's just one source I could easily cite and link to. :mad: I agree with you about the pig's hair too. Both the 80s fro and the 90s straight hair were likely used...

The Theater Experience :zany: Again, the advantage of growing up around this and with access to many local cineplexes resulted in my seeing all six theatrical Muppet movies, Follow that Bird, Dark Crystal and Labyrinth in the initial actual theater setting. It's an honor not taken lightly...

Shoes: The Great Equalizer...or How Open is Too Open? :flirt: Shoes can be an equalizer with women. Other than foot size and foot care issues women of all types can put on a pair of shoes and feel that a part of them is pretty no matter how puffy they might feel that particular day. At least...

It doesn't matter if a film is live action or animated it has to have an interesting story, a unique perspective, a reason for being made. Many of the animated films from DreamWorks PDI are made simply because the hot commodity of computer technology exists and famous people are willing to...

Here is a wonderful article written by Quinn Rollins titled "My Pilgrimage to the Jim Henson Company" back in 2002. It features some exclusive photograhy from inside the now vacated townhouse of Muppety goodness. One of the images features Quinn sitting with the mural. Other good stuff there...

I like the Japan informercial thing. Kermit needles Piggy from time to time, but not all the time as has happened lately. I like how Fozzie seems concerned about him and her. It's cute. I think they need a new approach to the relationship - a new development. The writers need to think of...

Of course divas are divas and the pig is no exception. When she's around she's the center of attention and I wouldn't have it any other way. That's why I think they should limit her exposure a little bit to give the other Muppets a chance to shine as they do. My point on that is continually...

Well it appears we're getting the bear and anything after that (the pig) is suspect at this time. I'd feel complete with Fozzie, but really want the pig. Hey Travis: I know you're not showing prototype pictures of Fozzie at this time (and I really understand why that could be) but could you...

I think he's underrated. I like John Goodman. He can be quite funny and really creepy in roles like in Fallen with Denzel Washington. He’s more than just the Roseanne guy.

The Muppets are not a fad. Elements of their popularity maybe, but as an entertainment troupe the Muppets have been around for many decades. Alf is okay in my book, but there's no comparing the Muppets to Alf. I don't see why you keep trashing the puppeteers. They do a great job. However, I do...

I saw it! I saw it yesterday. No spoilers. I'll just say it's a solid B in my book. It's my third favorite behind Raiders and Crusade, but before Doom. I don't know why some felt is sags in the middle. The two hour film just zipped by for me - and I was seeing it while nursing a bad cold. It...

Pop Culture: Family Guy and American Dad have always been hit-or-miss programs and continue to be so. There was a recent Family Guy episode with a dead frog bit that was brilliant. The Simpsons is the show I seldom catch anymore. It's always on in reruns and that diminishes its impact, but hey...

There's Statler & Waldorf, Bunsen & Beaker, Kermit & Piggy, Kermit & Fozzie, Gonzo & Rizzo, Johnny & Sal, Seymour & Pepe, Rowlf & Fozzie, Floyd & Janice, Sweetums & Robin, Gonzo & Camilla and many other combinations. The recent Fozzie and Kermit interviews have made me think about this more...

I have much love for the pig! ;) I'm 34 and remember seeing the first Muppet Movie in the theater so I consider myself one of the "old folk" too. :mad: My statement about Piggy is not an absolute! Why is it (especially on fan forums) that you have to pick an extreme side one way or the...

The special features aren't as good as I'd hoped but having the entire season three episodes at last is worth it for any Muppet fan. My thoughts - wait till you find a good enough deal and then snatch it up! :) Personally I think 26 bucks on Amazon is darn good. With tax and shipping that'll...

Substantive Style and Suspense over Silliness and Slick Songs :scary: I enjoy the Dark Crystal more. It's not just a movie; it's a world with dense layers and a lived-in feel. It does have a story, one that was explained all too simply for my taste in the dream-fasting sequence. I would have...

Just more specials in general. There are many classic specials that could be included. We wannum!

I think a good place for a new Muppet Show would be Sunday night on ABC right before prime time. This is the slot that America's "Funniest" Home Videos occupies, but how many times can a guy getting hit in the crotch with a wiffel bat be funny - and do they need an entire hour for that? Sandwich...

Only agree on one point, but the rest...I have to agree to completely disagree Wow. Where do I start? -I think Eric does a spectacular Piggy -The public's exposure to the Muppets mostly seems to be just frog or just frog and pig when there's so much more that could be pleasing to all...
