    Dave, what about Caroll? What about Jerry? Both of them probably would have been dropped looong before now.

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    The longest day of the year was supposed to have been like three weeks ago, why are the days still getting longer? How is does that happen? I mean three weeks ago it finally would get dark a little after 9:30, now it's nearly 10:00 when it gets dark. What's the deal?

    Steve Whitmire has left the Muppets, Matt Vogel to continue as Kermit

    Matt really is one of the more versatile of the current generation of Muppet Performers, and he's really climbed up the ladder beyond just being Big Bird's understudy, and doing minor, incidental characters. While what happened to Steve is certainly unjust, I don't doubt that Matt would do a...

    Steve Whitmire has left the Muppets, Matt Vogel to continue as Kermit

    One odd complaint I saw somebody post somewhere about Steve's Kermit was that he made Kermit's head "too cone-shaped" all the time . . . I really don't think that has much to do with Steve's performance, but rather, however they've been building and constructing new Kermit puppets in recent...

    Who's the current Disney CEO, Trump? While the article is interesting, I think it's a bit of an exaggeration to say that we're all ready to grab our pitchforks and torch Disney to the ground.

    By that logic, would all would be "spamming" this thread. :P

    Again, companies like Disney tend to make their decisions based on a corporate approach, while not necessarily giving a care about the art of the whole thing. Sesame Workshop's new staff mostly came from Viacom, and we all know what a Devil-Worshipping International Media Conglomerate they are. :P

    Steve Whitmire has left the Muppets, Matt Vogel to continue as Kermit

    Again, I seem to recall back when Prawnie was still running the Mindset, and still on speaking terms with most of us, that he said Steve was really nervous and apprehensive about how the 2011 movie turned out. The 2011 seemed to have a lot of mixed emotions surrounding it even before it came...

    Photobucket Ransoming Users Accounts

    I went with Postimage at the suggestion of somebody else - and, so far, it's pretty much as Photobucket always was: a service to host your images for hotlinking for free, they even auto-generate the copy and paste codes you'd need for direct linking, HTML and forum codes, etc. One difference is...

    Amazing how so many of us here were inspired by that special to become puppeteers.

    The Nostalgia Critic Thread Lives Again!

    Ehh, never mind, that didn't last long, lol. Fun while it lasted though: got nearly 1,000 thumbs up, I don't think I've ever gotten that many likes on a comment before . . . I think 700 was my biggest accomplishment, but that was back in the days when "top comments" really were top rated...

    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    Heh. Had one new subscriber for only an hour, then they unsubscribed. Lol.

    The Nostalgia Critic Thread Lives Again!

    I'm probably more proud than I should be over the fact that my comment on the YouTube upload of the CATS DON'T DANCE review is currently the second top comment (was first for a while, but it's been bumped down now). Interesting to see that while some people feel the same way about the sketches...

    Not necessarily; JHC has nothing to do with the Classic Muppets anymore, so they wouldn't have any say in this, just like they had nothing to do or say with the two new movies or the ABC series.

    Gee, I wonder who the little anonymous twerp is who's been posting these butthurt comments: https://stevewhitmire-muppetpundit.com/2017/07/11/its-time-to-get-things-started/#comment-49 https://stevewhitmire-muppetpundit.com/2017/07/11/its-time-to-get-things-started/#comment-50

    Figures. I got the same error message, but my comment still went through anyway, so I guess there's no real concern there.
