    Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

    Bry: Goodnight, Ed, and goodnight dorms. Snuffy: Boy, that sure was a great special. Wasn't it, Bird? Big Bird: Sure was! Can we watch another one? Telly: Yeah, I just found one called "Rocky Mountain Holiday." Bry: Maybe tomorrow, but I think it's time to go to sleep now. Goodnight...

    Museum of Television and Radio

    Hey, guys! Sorry, I didn't report this sooner, but I did indeed make my way out to the Museum in Beverly Hills last week and boy was it exciting. I had never been there before and so when I got in to the building and went over to the front desk they were so nice telling me all about what they...

    I KNOW she wasn't putting Sesame Street down at all. I already stated that. I am only pointing out the interesting fact of how the process works. That's all.

    TMS Season 2 Box Set - 2007 Release?

    You're right on that. I was surprised to see 3 seasons of The Golden Girls all released within one year.

    Yeah, Frank Oz was always good with the adlibbing, especially with Grover. Although when he did Cookie Monster on the Martha show he was brilliant! "Martha, it your show. You can call it whatever you want. You can call it Shirley."

    Well, I don't like that people are able to vote more than once.

    Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

    (In room 29 all are doing some summer cleaning) Big Bird: It sure has been quiet around the dorms. Telly: Well, we've been couped up in here all day. Bry: Well, I just thought since it is so hot outside, we could stay in this nice air conditioned room and do some cleaning and organizing...

    Because Ruth Buzzi was so used to doing all those sketch comedy shows like Laugh In where it was probably more important to have atleast one rehearsal before the actual taping. I see what you mean about SS only getting a couple takes (if lucky) which is why we often see adlibbing and little...

    The Small Actors Studio Puppet Design

    Thank you. Yes, I have seen their site which is why I am curious to know what others thought. I am already very impressed with what I have seen and read on the site and am considering possible business with them. I just wanted to know what others here thought of them. Any experience with...

    The Small Actors Studio Puppet Design

    Do any of you know anything about this company? From what I understand they are professional puppet designers/builders. They do custom designs.

    Explain to me again...

    You mean Jim, himself, or the company after his death?

    Explain to me again...

    Maybe Muppet Central should just obtain the rights to the Muppets. Then we'd be safe and so would the Muppets.;)

    Explain to me again...

    Haha! Exactly! That's the sad part.

    Ruth Buzzi

    Well that is exactly what it is. I mean, I would too if I wasn't able to rehearse with a musical director or something to make sure I am doing it right.

    Explain to me again...

    I respect your opinion, but I'd like to see the Muppets continue to live on and grow. Any company could put out DVD's of old stuff. If that is what the Muppets were meant to do, then the JHC could simply crank those out without selling off the characters. But they are not meant to do that and...

    Explain to me again...

    Focus on other things and just throw out what made them the company they are? Jim Henson IS the Muppets and the Muppets IS Jim Henson. I just think it was a terrible business move for the Henson family. I mean, it has been over a year since the sell and they have not done anything new with...

    Explain to me again...

    I've been thinking a lot about the Muppets and Disney lately and all the things that were planned but fell through (Muppet Christmas Caper, Next Top Muppet, etc...). Will someone please explain to me again why the Henson Company decided to sell the Muppets to Disney?

    Ruth Buzzi

    So I just bought the first DVD set of the Best of Rowan & Martin's Laugh In, and on it there is a great exclusive interview with Ruth Buzzi in the bonus material. She mentions how it was to work on Sesame Street and it was interesting. She said it was a different experience from other...
