Bear arrives on Disney+ The beloved series has been off the air for the past 15 years. Now all four seasons are finally available for a whole new generation.
This one confused me. You claim he's only two point one five years old? I didn't think the amount of time the puppet was actually used (alas :cry:) was fair game for this game. That said, expressing his age with a decimal is kinda cool. Maybe you meant "Digit version two point one five" in...
Triplets! That puppet was also the Solid Foam drummer. :D
You're probably right. Another reason to be grateful this thread drew thoughtful responses!
Sorry, I haven't seen that bit. I think I remember reading they chose the name Piggy Lee as a deliberate pun. I assumed she was named...
For example, Zondra and Darci.
The puppet first used as Zondra on the Jim Henson Hour was later used for Darci on Muppets Tonight. Darci's voice was different from Zondra's, but the puppet's hair and clothing was almost unchanged.
Since then this puppet has appeared in Muppets from Space...
Where can I find these videos? When I try to go to Muppets.com I get redirected to http://home.disney.go.com/lite/index and cannot find a single link to anything Muppety. :(
I remember some scenes different...
Is is just me, or did this year's airing of AVMMCM have some scenes changed from last year? These are the things I remember which seemed different...
-did the guitar-playing Gonzo in the mall last year have a "tap-dancing brick" sidekick that was missing...
Thanks for your response!
Nope, no puppeting experince. Not much call for that in these parts.
I wasn't expecting puppeting experience to be something they look for in a graphic designer. I heard elsewhere on the forum that the puppet builders in the workshop almost never become puppet...
So my boyfriend's best friend's wife is in some kind of marketing and knows a guy who works for the Henson Co. in London. This morning I got an email from her asking for my resume so she can forward it to that guy, whoever he is.
:eek: :o :excited: :o :eek:
I don't even know if they are...
I want STOCK!
I hope they make stock publicly available. I would SO love to own just one little share. Just one. Just one teeeny weeny piece of the magic.
:excited:
thanks for the responses!
I feel much better now. :) Thanks for all your responses!
Especially ChillyDown's-- very informative and insightful. There seem to be almost too many science-type Muppets around, and there may not be enough roles to use them all.
Cantus, to be honest, his looks...
I like chickens... did I say that out loud?
No, really. I like the idea of having chickens, especially ones that lay the naturally pink and blue and green eggs. And I love the idea of having a rooster for an alarm clock.
I grew up in the suburbs so farm stuff has a sort of mysterious quality...
I think I finally figured out part of what my hangup is with Digit.
Digit who? Precicely.
I have always been fascinated by the illusion of life. So when Digit came into being, and then fell into not-being, I was puzzled and still am.
I only saw perhaps a total of three minutes of him...
Disney and Muppet Character Names
Ten years ago, when our beloved Jim Henson and not-so-beloved Disney were negotiating the interrupted and incompleted sale of the Muppets, I remember seeing some co-produced thing (a book or magazine or product label or something else in print) that really...
Does every Muppet have to fit into a speices category? Or do all the non-gonzo undefineable beings have to be labeled "monsters"?
I have no trouble accepting Gonzo as a Whatever from Outer Space. But I hope his species stays the mysterious Whatevers... and not even the oldest, wisest, most...
how about bike brakes?
Thanks for all your suggestions! :)
A friend of mine suggested maybe adapting some bike brakes, but I haven't tried it yet.
It seems like I'd be able to run the cable down a very thin rod from the head to my hand, which would be a big plus! On the downside, I'd...
mouth mechanism?
I posted a doodle of the worm puppet at:
http://www.geocities.com/seprid
I drew it wrapped around my shoulders and head because I thought it would be easy to carry that way, but it won't be permanently a hat-puppet.
I'm not sure the info so far here on this forum would...
Hi all,
I posted this before checking the forum for previously-posted info on the subject, but I don't seem to have permission to DELETE this posting. So, apologies in advance...
I want to build an oversize puppet of an earthworm.
I want it to be a rod puppet, and I'd like to open and...
scary muppets
When I was five years old or less, I remember being so scared of the the rubber-band face I ran from the room whenever it appeared. The eyes and mouth floated independently against the black background and it counted very slowly and creepily. This is an old bit and I assume they...
