Well there was a public appearance by Gonzo (Dave was there to :P) and Gonzo said there was something happening that he wasn't allowed to talk about. Who knows if this was it or something totally different.

Sadly I did not go for fear of rain and lack of people to go with.

What will they do if it rains? It's suppose to storm tomorrow night. Do they move it to another day, show it anyway, or just plain cancel it?

Looks good to me.

From what I understand Frank Oz shows up for 1-2 days of taping each season and does some stuff. I like that he does it. I'm glad he is a successful director, but it is too bad he isn't really with the muppets anymore. I think this phasing out started with the Jim Henson Hour or earlier. I...

I am so glad this got a bump because someone posted the muppet show live on there. SO happy about that!

Well MTM is the movie I think of when I think Rizzo. That is the movie that made me take notice of the character. He was good in MCC, but I don't think of MCC when I think of what defines the character.

I'd like the muppets to take on some issues like they use to. Like the anti-war stuff they use to do in the 70's. I think we could use some good old fashioned peace songs again. Same Eagle is the perfect character to use right now too. I mean, that is what I love about the muppet show. The...

Very true. Actually it's very muppets tonighish. Muppets Tonight had a lot of good but the stand-by of humor became bad puns and poor delivery. Puns are great when used sparingly, but Disney does nothing but that with their shows and I think that might have been what infected Muppets Tonight...

That's some cool news. I really like the way the fraggle merchandise is being put out. The box sets are a good deal imo and the cd sounds good. There is still am ovie in the works right?

Yes I know they will attract an audience, but at what cost? I cringe at Zack and Cody talking to Kermit. The disney star act poorly and rely on bad jokes. Sorry, just not a fan of them. It said to see the muppet go from the likes of Bob Hope to the likes of Hannah Montana.

Good that they are doing new stuff but the part about having Disney channel "star" cameo's made me cringe. I mean I get that the muppets have to use current stars, but why the manufactured disney channel teeny-bopper ones?

Who knows why, and like i said it's only a guess. It's possible that the patterns were bought by Disney from the Jim Henson Company but Puppet Heap actually made the piggy molds themselves. The patterns are more intellectual property while the molds are something Puppet Head made themselves.

My guess is that the molds are owned by Puppet Heap even though the character is owned by Disney. Piggy is an intellectual property while the molds are physical property that took money to make. Disney pays for the services of Puppet Heap and may even own the actual puppets, but not the tools...

When was the pic of the dressed Gonzo posted? It looks al ot different than the first shots I saw of the head.

The original idea was to have the street look real. No street in NYC is squeaky clean. I don't see the point of showing kids a squeaky clean street when trying to relate to them because when they walk outside they are still on a run down street. I know hwen i grew up my street wasn't perfect...

Gonzo use to be smaller, now he's larger. Few people realize that he changed size over they ears. The palsiades figure reflects his Muppet Show size more, but since then the puppet got larger I believe.

Cool. I use to get Disney Adventures as a kid years ago. This would be a reason to at least pick up one issue again.

The commercial is misleading. I saw it and it didm ake me question their tactics. The Muppet Movie was not released as some kid movie. It was released with a huge celebration by hollywood stars. It was star packed for crying out loud. For some reason people think it is ok to lie if they...

That was it?
