It was a good interview. He must be getting mellow in his advancing years. ;-) As far as the Muppets go, think how invested and nitpicky we, the fans, are. Now think how much MORE invested someone like Frank Oz, who helped create the Muppets and originated half of the main characters, must...

I don't see this anywhere yet? Frank Oz did an interview at EW.com. The first two pages are about Little Shop of Horrors. The third has some questions about the Muppets. He finally speaks a little bit about The Muppets in its final form, and I am...surprised, though I shouldn't be. He...

I gotta go with Robin. I know Bean's whole schtick was supposed to be that he was cute, but I usually couldn't see it. I think it was his eyes. For some reason, the glass eyes didn't have as much personality as the usual Muppet ping-pong or flat plastic eyes. Which is kind of weird, now I...

Oh, that's awesome. I want that in my house. :)

Give it another go when Christmas season rolls around. I felt the exact same way for a long time, but this year I decided to re-watch it. Mostly because I figured my kids might like it, and because of Gonzo and Rizzo. Well, the rat and the whatever were so charming that I watched it again the...

I'm thinking the lobsters in Canada are unlikely to be banditos. Then again, what do I know? :)

Heh, if I'd waited a couple of days, I wouldn't have had to ask. I just got the S4 extras DVD via Netflix, and watched the whole thing today. The extended interview with Rob Mills, Gord Robertson and Trish Leeper is amazing. Now I have this urge to go back and watch the entire second half of...

Thank you for posting these! I'd never seen them. What a treasure!

Here's what the Muppets FB page has to say about it: It’s gonna be the most un-bear-ably wonderful night of Fozzie Bear’s life when we all host and perform live at the JUST FOR LAUGHS COMEDY FESTIVAL in Montreal July 26! It’s sure to be a one-of-a-kind comedy happening...probably because...

Oh, look at that poster. They're headlining!!

. . . and ate it. :)

And, Jim Henson gets a nice round of applause. As is good and proper.

That's one of my absolute favorites. He sidles up to her, and she's like, "...yech." :-) I also enjoy that, throughout that entire song, she and Gobo are looking at Wembley like he's completely lost his marbles. Ha! I'd forgotten about the oaken casks. And then he has his little...

Great, thank you! Funny, I didn't think he looked like either of his pictures on the wiki. But then, I tend to recognize people by their hair.

There's so much going on in Fraggle Rock. The wonderful people who made the show had four seasons to really explore the Fraggles and their world. I wanted a thread where we can mention the little things that caught our notice--either tiny character/puppetry moments, little throwaway lines...

I thought I'd bump this and see if anyone new has an answer. I just noticed this guy recently. Usually, I'm too busy watching the main Fraggle performers and Jim and Richard. Whoever he is, I like him. He looks like he's having a fabulous time going "bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum." :)...

Hear hear to that, too! It was an enormous loss. But what a life he lived. Things like this video always make me wonder what he would have done, if he had lived. I feel sure we're missing out on some pretty spectacular stuff. Although I always hope that, once he saw everyone else jumping...

Perfectly put! Hear, hear!

Ok, try going to Youtube and searching for 'Jim Henson the future of video'. It should be the first thing that comes up.

Seems like there's always something appealing about the 'downer' characters. Eeyore, Grumpy Dwarf, Oscar, etc. And Boober, like Eeyore, is especially lovable because he's not grouchy or grumpy (most of the the time). He's a real sweetheart, he just...sees things differently. Also, he has...
