One comforting thought... M. Baker said they needed 60+ puppeteers for new projects at last year's auditions. Maybe ONCE (hopefully not 'if')they get things going they'll a) hold more auditions or b) giver the runners-up to the 9 who went to Olando a ring-a-ling...

I got the Rankin Bass Christmas set! Everything is great (except fot that terrible Lorne Michaels "Frosty Returns"). I love the original Rudolph, and The Little Drummer Boy is a real tear-jerker.

I can't move a shooping cart anywhere without smackin' into them!

Thank you Phil, Merry Christmas! I hope you don't mind, I started a Merry Christmas thread in the General area.

Merry Christmas Fellow Muppet Fans! An early wish to enjoy the holiday season. Peace on earth. :)

Thanks sb. There has to be SOMEONE here who knows this! I mean, I get blown away by the amount of detail some people know about tthis show.

Well said, Fozzie. I just want to make it clear, if Ihaven't already... I'm not knocking the show - it was cute. And the fact that it brought (and still brings) happiness to people is great. I didn't mind it back then (though I admit, I was getting to the age where I was more into action...

1) Canon in the Muppet's storyline? I assumed that with so many variations, we're not suppoesd to even worry (or care) about this! 2) Muppet Babies the best animated series of all time? Is it possible that you feel this way solely on the fact that it's based on the Muppets? It was just another...

Hmm. ha ha. :P Well, I guess it's only a matter of time before a hard-core SS fan verifies this. It'll save oodles on therapy.

... YOU MUST BE OUT OF YOUR MIND. Cost of filming puppets vs cg - cg being cheaper??? Yes, eighties hit shows are remade, ad nauseum. But Muppet Babies was just a spin-off series of a musical number from the least successful Muppet film of Jim's run. It was a sub-product, not unlike the Yellow...

I can't see how or why Muppet Babies would ever be revised... and if it did, why on earth wouldn't they use Steve W., Eric J. etc for it?

No... it was scary! I think it was when I watched it (mid seventies) when scaring kids didn't seem to be a concern on that show. I still feel like calling a shrink when I see Frazzle.... But did this happen??

Hi all, I'm wondering if you Sesame experts would verify something for me. I'm either recalling an old sketch, or remembering a messed up dream. Did Cookie Monster ever have the 'midas touch' where everything and everyone he touched turned into a pile of cookies?

I'm not trashing Muppet Babies, it's fine for what it was. I'm just realistic on what it isn't.

If they're not going to make another Muppet Movie, show, or tv movie, they're ceeeeeertainly not going to bother bringing back 'Muppet Babies'!

Well, they're obviously not puppeteers! ;)

By genre I meant 'adult-oriented-humor-puppet-type-show".

People have been saying (North) America has been ready for this since The Muppet Show. It hasn't happened yet. I think it's not a matter of 'people being ready for the genre', but a matter of 'are productions companies ready to actually make something decent enough to last'.

Okay, now I'm interested. Please explain.

LOL! How soon I forget how confusing this was for me not too long ago... :)
