Oh, oh, I just thought of another Fraggle who bugs me. I was thinking about Mudwell, and that I never thought about whether I liked him or not because it didn't matter. The point was that Wembley liked him right? And then I though, well, Wembley generally likes everybody, 'cause he's just a...

Ooooooh...you just said you don't like Mudwell. Here, have a shield to hide behind when people start throwing tomatoes. ;) Well, Dave liked getting on Gobo's nerves anyway. I think I remember him saying that his favorite thing about playing Matt was when he came back to the Rock and wound up...

Wellllll...not totally undeserved. Granted, he's not nearly as smart, resourceful or brave as he thinks he is. But he IS the only Fraggle with the guts to explore Outer Space. That has to count for something. Still, though. Arrogance is annoying.

Oh, man, Uncle Matt. Like I said before, by the time I finished the whole series I'd come to love all the characters. But Matt is one of my least favorite Fraggles, as far as that goes. I feel so guilty about it, because Dave Goelz has cited him as one of his favorite characters to play. I...

If you look around their site, Fraggle scents aren't any weirder than some of their others. They come up with scents for every darn thing. It's their medium. I'm tickled they decided to do Labyrinth and FR--clearly, they're eighties children. Some of these (Gobo, Uncle Matt) don't make an...

"My cardigan would look silly without lime green stripes!" Actually, every line by the Doozers about knitting in The Great Radish Famine would fall into the 'makes me happy' category. :busy:

I couldn't stand them at the time. Nowadays, I find any scenes where they were paired with Piggy or, especially, Sam amusing. Just because I've got the Muppeteers in mind, and I've always imagined a much milder version of that dynamic between Frank and Dave and Steve. The crotchety old guy...

Ok, good. I'm just paranoid. Wish I knew when/how my computer was infected. Never had this problem before.

You two might want to run a virus scan. I'm still not sure my computer's issues aren't coming from webs.com. I am not trying to be an alarmist, I swear, I just don't know where else it could be coming from at this point.

Ha ha ha, B, I know what we should do. You have the ideas, and I'll write them out. We'd be an unstoppable force of...uh, literature or something. :) I keep hearing a hip-hop version of the Fraggle theme song in my head. Can't you just hear it? Don't you just know somebody is going to...

I had a bunch of issues with how Gonzo was presented in the movie. For one, he was missing a sidekick. And I hated that he had to miss all of the big Muppet moments at the end of the film, like Rainbow Connection. And there wasn't enough of him in general. But the one that gets me the most...

High hopes, low expectations. :sigh: ;)

Yep. I've been getting kind of twitchy without my Hensoncon fix this morning. :concern: They seem to be making progress, though. When I tried to post earlier, it took me to a generic error message screen. Now I get a pop up window right away that says the operation is unavailable at this...

I'm pretty sure the performers are freelancers, so it's not a matter of Disney allowing them to do other projects. It would just be a matter of fitting everything into their schedules. IF, of course, they Fraggle movie people wanted to ask the original performers back and IF the performers...

Yeah. The thought of recasting any of the Fraggles is disturbing, somehow. It's possible that they'll wind up recasting all of them...in which case I don't think I'll be watching the movie. But we'll see. Maybe the Hensons are determined to do it right and get back as many of the original...

I hope it gets off the ground this time. I hope these guys are good, and I hope they both sit down and watch all four seasons of the show twice before they start to write. And the DVD extras so they can see what the show meant to the people who worked on it.

Hmmmmmm, interesting.

Yeah, I think "phased out" is too strong a term. I wouldn't be surprised if he's being given a little less time than previously, because Goelz is no spring chicken any more. (get it? Chicken? Wocka wocka!) But it's not like he's leaving the troupe or anything. I think that's more the...

Ok, I just sent a msg. to the convention company that ran MuppetFest. We'll see if they answer. If I don't hear from them by the end of Tuesday or so, I'll make something up.

Wow! Every time I come here, there's a whole new page to read through, at least. I'm so glad I hopped in on this discussion--it's fun being a part of this with y'all! The enthusiasm and creativity here is wonderful to behold. :) So, no one seems to have an answer for me about Muppetfest. I...
