Yea Jim wasn't pleased with ALF (i gather Henson had turned it down, so you can see why) but it wasn't a bitter thing. Jim did a joke about ALF & Miss Piggy at Bernie Brillstein's Hollywood roast. Also he met with Fusco at a poker night just before his death.

I think senior member is now way too easy to get, it might be better to set it to 2,000 or even 3,000 for anyone who hasn't earned it yet. I don't like the idea of custom titles, people could probably abuse that and its a family forum.

Sounds like fun, i'd really love to see the Kermit replica dressed as Santa, lol. Maybe someone here could take measurements of a Kermit if they have one with them - kids clothes here usually go by height here or have some kind of height chart when they come in ages.

I like this idea, maybe if people are looking for anything specific they could post a request and see if anyone can fulfill it.

I am in awe of your menus yet again Jamie, fantastic work. I love the detail in what you do, sometimes you look at it and notice something that you didn't before which is very cool. I'd love to see a Fraggle menu - i guess we have MC's 10th birthday next year so that should be a good excuse...

I'd add C - Directors nowadays got no idea how to shoot puppets, but yeah i think the puppeteers did come from that kinda background. It's an interesting show format, kinda what Muppets Tonight should have been. I think something like that if it was well done and well written could maybe...

Zoe! Fran Brill rocks!

Just finished listening to the 'cast, i stay up late every Sunday night to catch it and absolutely amazing to hear the fantastic Dave Goelz. Thank you so much Steve for going to these events for the fans and getting opportunities like this one, sounds like it was a great event to go to and...

Yeah i think there is a lot less chance they can get Fozzie wrong. Just a big teddy bear really, but yes eye and nose placement, lol. Terry seems to have got the right idea, although i was just watching the French Muppet Show thing and he seemed very off there. Puppet Heap don't seem to be...

Thanks for showing us the pics Craig, brilliant. Must have been a brilliant experience to do that and you worked on the ice skating Penguins right? I'm not sure those Piggy clips are even Eric, although if it is him maybe he's just not as comfortable with adlibbing as much, as he has...

The Muppets, Muppet Show, Muppet Movies all generate a lot of money in international distribution and licensing. Just because we don't see much Muppet exposure in the USA doesn't mean the old stuff isn't being re-run elsewhere. The major aspect of Disney buying the Muppets was for the tape...

Well they had Star Wars, and now Corgi owns them so i don't think they need a cash cow anymore.

There's a lot less wrong they can get with the Fozz, as long as they use the right fur and colors. I could see Piggy being quite a challenge. Ideal strong line up would have probably been Kermit, Fozzie, Animal, Gonzo, Rizzo, Piggy. That way people might buy Fozzie to go with Kermit, Rizzo to...

Yea well done, lol. I dunno whether they cut up a longer interview anyway, but even more might have been edited out for the Hilary Clinton hostage coverage.

The appearance is now up on the web as Fox News top video, it can be seen by clicking here Also the trailer got a great youtube puppet video reply from James Wotjal. It's a shame they didn't put out an ALF calendar this year given the timing.

Maybe we should get emailing them to show some support

I am loving the annual Muppet xmas radiothon. This is not a criticism, more of a well done but the station is proving so popular at the moment sometimes its hard to get on!

Puppet Heap are building them these days i think. I agree about Piggy, its not just the stiff performance, the puppet looks off, she was doing Piggy-ish soundbytes but didn't really have much character to her. Was this even Eric doing her? I can't spot the voices that well but i just wondered...

They must think long and hard before investing the money in creating a new product. We have seen pre-orders for Gonzo so i would guess we'd see him, but the sales of Kermit, Animal and the pre-orders of Gonzo will matter heaps before they put that Fozzie prototype into mass production and up...

I agree about the Christmas CD. Why change something as obvious as a christmas CD into something that has to be more trendy or different. In my mind, anyone going into a shop and wanting to buy a Muppet Christmas CD is probably hoping to find the Muppets singing carols we all know and love...
