    Question about Live hand Puppets

    Yea I knew how monsters worked, what with the glove desgin attached to the body. But I swear that I have never seen a seperate arm for Ernie or Fozzie or any other character like that (though I always thought Fozzie was more or the style the monsters were made from). And even when I'm looking...

    The most tear-jerking Muppet moment...

    Welcome Dominicboo1. Mudwell's death is definately one for me. It's funny because I don't remember crying much when I saw "I'm so Blue" because I think I was six and I knew Big Bird was gonna be okay anyway. I need to watch it again to see if it is sad to me a second time around.

    A New Technique for Shooting the Legs of a Puppet

    That's pretty cool. Thanks for sharing, Sidebottom. I don't know if I could ever set something like that up, at least not int he near future. But at the very least it's something to think about, how the legs and the hips move in relationship to the rest of the puppet.

    I need some ideas for performance routines!

    Have you tried talking back to him? I do that every now and then with some of my puppets. They do most of the talking and I try to stay out. But talking to them every now and then brings up new topics. Just one thing off the top of my head, Wendell at first glance kinda strikes me as a skater...

    I'm with you Beaker. I don't like tension either. Welcome back fraggle friends. Kinda glad you weren't here for the monkey mele.

    MC - The Revival

    Great idea beakerboy! What if, whenever we see some tension building (that we could do somethng about) we do what Beakerboy did and post a link to it and encourage each other to go to it? We could also do that if we see someone who could use some encouragement, praise, cheering up, etc?
