    After ewatching the Chef clip again, and this time knowing what it was about, it wasn't that bad. I liked the OJ Simpson reference. Bill and who ever did the hands could use some practice though. The hands are a big part of the performance and the two performers have to be co-ordinated...

    New Chef Puppet

    He will probably do voice loops for awhile if he can not do the work. Jerry Nelson is looping voices sometimes on Sesame Street.

    New Chef Puppet

    36 years, going on 37 and more. I hope Mr. Spinney makes it to yseason 40 before he retires, if he decideds to retire then that is. 40 is a nice number. 50 would be even better, but he would probably be in his late 80's by then. Might be a bit too much to get to season 50. Matt is a...

    New Chef Puppet

    I really think Scooter would be perfect for an interview or something. I mean, they have gone through the touble of recasting him, they should use him more.

    Statler & Waldorf on movies.com

    They just don't seem funny anymore and the acting is so hack. I just don't think it is natural. I actually get annoyed while watching.

    Follow That Bird Discussion Thread

    What was great about the movie was that it was a big bird movie, but every scene did not have to include big bird. In Elmo in Grouch land it was as if every scene had to invclude Elmo in some way, many times alone.

    Statler & Waldorf on movies.com

    I actually did not like it much I thought the Chef was horrible. Bill does not seem to do well with Chef at all. The voice constantly cracked it it sounded more like the same 3 words over and over again than a real mock swedish language. I'm starting to get annoyed while watching thse now.

    Another Jim Hill Muppet rant

    Disney did cut **** from some MTI interviews on the dvd. Maybe they wlll go around doing it to the movies.

    Another Jim Hill Muppet rant

    This was somethng Jim Henson himself put in the reel. He did it for a reason. 1. It's funny. 2. It shows the muppets aren't squeaky clean fluff balls. Sure, it's just a word, but it's hilarious and so is the timing of it. There is no valid reason to cut it. How many other things...

    Why were the last 26 split into two seasons?

    If the contract called for 5 seasons why did they only tape the 4?

    Another Jim Hill Muppet rant

    But why edit Kermit out of a Disney owned pitch reel on a Muppet Show box set? Not because of character rights issues but because of censorship. It's not right.

    Well I will be sorely dissappointed if the reel is edited like that. Makes me wonder if they will cut out **** from GMC. There really is no reason for it.

    Miss Piggy's voice in TMM

    Oh I see. So he did not dub in for Piggy, it would have been him doing the song. I thought it was suppose to be him doing Piggy's voice. For some reason I forgot that the entire song was a voice over.

    The Muppet Caper

    Just so you know. 1. An MP3 or WAV file owuldj ust be sound. 2. Trading a video online like that is illegal anwyay.

    Maybe that was the original plan, but it certainly soundsl ike Frank to me.

    Behind the Scenes of "The Muppet Movie"

    I never though about how they did that scene with Kermit. It was just one of tose times where I was like, that's just Kermit sitting in a chair. I didn't even realize that Jim Henson was hiding somewhere. Personally, I prefer effects like that. Blue screen looks so fake to me. Stuff...

    Any news on the New Muppet Show?

    Pete is dead. A new show would be better than MT I think because now we know what new characters work and what new characters do not. There would not need to be that weird experimental season.

    Uncle Deadly review

    The tail is on the coat to allow for easier movement of the leg joints. With the tail on the coat you can have Deadly sit easier.

    Baby Rowlf's Voice

    Someone said that Steve performed Baby Kermit in an old post, but it is not true. It is most certainly Jim Henson. They all peroformed their own baby characters.
