Thanks! I hope Caroll is with us a long time to come - a very nice guy!

Does anyone know how often Caroll Spinney performs Big Bird now? I'm usually pretty good about picking out voices, but I have to admit Matt's Bird voice is pretty darn close to Caroll's, and I can't tell the difference.

Interesting! I hope we both find out!

That was the one that was most rare, of course!

I think they should have included J.P. Gross as having something to do with being on Tex's side

I finally got around to scanning these - and I included a few others Muppet-related! I obtained these 2 from Lynn Klugman, who worked with Jim in the 70's. The Emmet Otter one was one that Jim gave the crew for working on the show. I'm not sure who signed this, Jim or Steve. It's...

This is beyond belief. The parents are familiar with the show, obviously, so they know A.) The character's name is Gobo, B.) Wembley's speech pattern - he talks like that all the time, C.) The message of peace and love that Fraggle Rock gives on every single episode. Unless they never spend time...

Did anyone else notice the mouse ears in the fireworks at the end?

JUST got back from seeing it, and I loved it. The Muppets as we "old timers" know them (I'm 37) are back. At least as "back" as we'll ever get. I personally don't see anything wrong with the film - it is a virtual love letter to the Muppets and everything Jim created and stood for. I thought I...

Alot of bad news in this article, unfortunately..... http://www.geeksofdoom.com/2011/10/23/frank-oz-reveals-why-he-turned-down-the-muppets/

I just got a tweet back from the Jim Henson Legacy that the date has been pushed back to 2014 :sigh:

Well for Caroll Spinney I just used the main Sesame Street address in NYC, and for the Muppet guys it was when the main Henson office was in NYC as well. I'm sure if you wrote to the California one it would get forwarded to them.

Yep - that's practically GOLD.

PLEASE crack and tell us how much you paid! lol

VERY nice set! I bought 2 items on eBay from Lynn Klugmann, who used to work with Jim - a signed photo of Richard Hunt & Scooter, and a photo of the crew from "Emmet Otter" signed by Jim. I also have a photo and charicatures of Caroll Spinney, Big Bird, and Oscar signed by Caroll (along with 2...

Does anyone know if there is any recorded performances from the 80's stage show (other than the TV commercials on YouTube) that still survive? Just hearing the audio tracks would be nice, as it features the classic performer line up in rare songs.

Recently, I saw a short video of The Art of the Muppets exhibit taken in 1985. In it were all of the things I remember seeing, along with the "new" exhibits of Fraggle Rock and The Muppet Babies. I say "new" because I saw the exhibit in New Orleans in 1981. However, in the video from 1985, The...

Is there an email address that we can write to, to show Disney how much we want this?

I just want Seasons 4 & 5 of the Muppet Show on DVD.... PLEASE!

There's plenty of enthusiasm for both, but given the choice, I'd rather see that collection.
