Thanks, guys. I was thinking of Jim when I wrote this, although it was not really meant as a tribute to him. But the Cantus-Henson connection was in the back of my mind, and I wished that Henson's passing could have been more like this: painlessly and peacefully, without fear or regret, at the...

Thank you. I don't know if there is an afterlife in the Fraggle mythos, but if there is, Cantus will be making music there too. The documentary is "Terry Pratchett: Choosing to Die." In 2007 Terry, at age 59, was diagnosed with a rare form of early onset Alzheimer's. Since then he has been an...

Scooter and a Fraggle? Yeah, that's pretty bizarre, all right.

Er, that's not Gobo. Gobo has magenta hair and no ears. Or are you implying that Scooter might have a thing for red too? :smirk:

My fuzzy purple butt has just been ziffeled. It tingles.

I'm pretty sure that's Beauregard behind the Chef at 0:52. The guy needs his own janitor--he generates almost as much mess as Muppet Labs.

I just want to say that I am appalled by this trailer. It is a slap in the face of Swedish Muppet fans--and fans of Swedish Muppets--everywhere.

Thanks, guys. This is the fastest-written story I've done in a long time; I wrote the first draft in about 2 hours, and revised in 3 times in the next 2 hours before posting it. (Sloooow day at work.) I'm glad that it came across the right way despite the quick writing, as I don't think I...

It was a dark and stormy night.

I've had a certain subject on my mind since reading about Terry Pratchett's recently-aired BBC documentary. Here's a short story I wrote as a catharsis. I apologize in advance. ***** Coda by Kim McFarland ***** It was a cool day at the beginning of spring. Winter had been harsh, as winter...

Hurm. This is a puzzling news item. I'd like it to be evidence that, free of Weinstein, they've put new ink on paper for a Fraggle movie. However, I'll wait for more concrete info before getting happy about it.

*laughs* I love this! Big Mean Carl is gonna be mighty peeved he was left out, I bet. Nice tats on the model. Did I predict that or what?

We already have Kermit's Rainbow to fill that niche. Talk about being off-message.

I think that's why they dance and sing and play all the time. Life can be grim, life can be a light that's dim, dim, dim. They fight back against that by having all the fun they can grab. Just don't ask them about the shining wires.

Thanks. Actually, Janken doesn't have a clue what his potential is yet, and it's starting to drive him nuts that Cantus won't give him a straight answer. A pity Jan doesn't remember what the Trash Heap told him when he was worried about his family. She gave him a great big hint, but he was...

Oooh, my first ziffel experience!

Another: In River of Life, Pa Gorg tells Boober point-blank that without clean water they will all die, and when Boober pleads for their lives he says that they don't want to die.

IIRC, Boober and Red talk about it in Marooned. Red wonders what it's like to die, and Boober recalls the image of a soap bubble floating up and then disappearing.

I'm seeing a broken link.

A few program notes: The dripping "stalactites" above the pond are called soda straws. They are gorgeous, and so fragile that few survive in caves frequented by tourists. Janken's song can, by an incredible coincidence, be sung to the tune of "Your Rain (Rage Mix)." Youtube link is below, and...
