    Dead Puppets Society: Female Muppet Chapter

    She appeared in a Season 36 episode where she kept hijacking other fairy tales and stealing other food items, like Little Jack Horner's pie, or Little Miss Muffet's curds and whey; she was really obnoxious in that episode, hardly like the comic foil to Baby Bear.

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    Better than "Cause of death: crushed by Marv."

    Sesame Street puppeteer Michael Earl dies at 56

    It's a shame, but like with Jerry Nelson, we kind of knew he was living on borrowed time and this day would come eventually; it's still sad nevertheless, and he will be missed.

    TV Alert: Keep Christmas with You with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Sesame Street

    I think the problem with Cookie is that he wasn't really utilized much other than constantly interrupting the show wanting Christmas cookies, and then rushed realization that Christmas is about more than cookies. Maybe they should have had him start eating up the set in a fit of insatiable...

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    Since there's pretty much no Christmas this year, why not not celebrate by enjoying some sadistic and sociopathic comedy and watch Harry and Marv continually die?

    Ostrich plume hair question

    Could be. I usually have to fix up puppets that have been in storage, such as brushing out Steve's fur from being matted down, or sometimes a puppet's torso may have been flattened so I have to kind of squeeze it back into shape.

    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    Dude, deviantART got so bad about that one year, thankfully a friend turned me on to Spybot Search & Destroy, because that was the only effective way to get rid of those things. Seriously, I believe in one month, dA infected me like ten different times with those trojans that installed fake...

    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    I see YT's back to its old tricks of not wanting to load/buffer vids, resulting in clicking refresh quite often, otherwise you either get that "an error has occured" message on most vids, or that circle with the exclamation point in it for HD playback.

    Where's the love for Rocky and Bullwinkle?

    Boris's disguises have always been paper-thin, but it's just now occured to me that they were so much so throughout the Jet Fuel Formula arc that even his aliases were paper-thin: Ace Rickenboris? Sir Thomas Lippenboris?

    Henson Rarities on Youtube

    Admittedly, the earliest of Muppet projects are hit-or-miss, but I think a lot of that can be attributed to Jim trying to find the Muppets' footing beyond the tradition of lip-syncing to novelty records and such. I recently watched the original Tinkerdee pilot, and I was a little disappointed...

    Sesame Street Seasons 30-34

    I like to try to pretend that I don't remember much from the ATC era of the show, but otherwise, I'm pretty sure I've seen every episode of Season 30 at least once, but from Season 32 to Season 38 I know I've seen every episode, because I began watching regularly again by that point. During my...

    Sesame Street Seasons 30-34

    Ironically, Season 31 was during a time where the show was kind of fading from my attention for a while, but there are only a very few episodes from that season that I actually remember - I'm pretty sure that's one of them. Checking back with Muppet Wiki, Episodes 3888 and 3891 are really the...

    Henson Rarities on Youtube

    After watching all of HEY CINDERELLA! I must confess . . . I think I can kind of see why a series wouldn't have worked too well (even though the original treatment was for Snow White, not Cinderella). But that aside, admittedly, the production values aren't spectacular, the puppets weren't that...

    Dead Puppets Society: Female Muppet Chapter

    I don't even remember Leslie Mostly, but Flo Bear I always mistook for Mama Bear anyway, so, eh, I don't think much of her either way.

    Steve Whitmire as Kermit on Sesame Street

    Oh yeah, I forgot about that German company. Boy, those were some awkward years for the Muppets.

    Steve Whitmire as Kermit on Sesame Street

    Yeah, pretty much. After that it got to a point where the only time we ever saw Kermit was the annual "Do De Rubber Duck." Too bad the Disney deal took place before the release of A CELEBRATION OF ME, GROVER, even though there were a couple of glimpses of Kermit in retrospect, it could have...

    Ostrich plume hair question

    Yeah, that's what I had to do when I was working with ostrich feathers, was basically attach them so that the plumage naturally faced upward (it was the look I was wanting anyway), but there were still occasional little plumes here and there that may dangle downward in front of the eyes, so I...
