Thanks, BoyRaisin.

I agree totally. :)

I've always liked Rowlf, Fozzie, Kermit, Big Bird, Ernie, Grover, Cookie Monster, and Oscar.

Are there any good books about Jim Henson's life and work?

I like warm weather!! Yaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This sort of answers my question. It is from an interview with Frank Oz that can be found at: http://filmforce.ign.com/articles/035/035843p1.html "From then on, I was the one who kind of put all the elements of Yoda together, and although Jim didn't make Yoda, George and he had an...

I've always thought of Walt and Jim as having a lot in common. They were both creative and had a deep love and appreciation for their creations. That is one of the reasons both of their creations are so beloved today.

I like the new menu. I really like the theme of the Muppet Babies. Happy Easter!

I like the theme song. However, it just sticks in my head long aftewards. Does this happen to anybody else?

Too true, I agree though it is a nice ballpark. I root for the Cubs as well.

I agree Luke, plus there is a sizable percentage of kids under say 10, who don't really know who the Muppets are. Aside from Muppets in Space and commercials, a lot of the younger kids don't really "know" Kermit and the gang. They might know Kermit as the guy on Sesame Street more than Kermit...

I'm a Cincinnati Reds fan, although I haven't had much to cheer about for the last several years.

The thing Disney fails to realize is that Brother Bear and Home on the Range and all of those films, while they may not make huge money now, they will recoup their investments years later. Many of the early films didn't make much money, but they have made it back over the years. Currently...

I think the Muppets will be more heavily promoted and marketed than they possibly ever have. Disney spent $60 million and they want to reap their investment. Disney may have its faults, but it is still one of the premier family brands. By Disney owning the Muppets it gives them more chances...

I doubt it will halt cheapquels, and the Mickey Three Musketeers is technically a cheapy as well. It is a shame that Disney doesn't realize that it is not the technique, it is the story. When Sleeping Beauty and other movies were initial failures, Walt didn't shut down the studio. He knew that...

I agree, there has to be somebody original who can bring fresh life into these characters.

Seeing Kermit and C-3PO and R2-D2 ranked as some of the highlights for me.

There could have been more about the old days, but I did like the clips at the end of all the old shows through the years.

I agree with you Luke, they will have to expand beyond the pre-school audience. I think even by limiting their audience to the pre-school and tween market then they would significantly increase their audience. With a show like Fraggle Rock, I think it would take pre-schoolers a while to grow to...
