    New Chef Puppet

    Oh, 40 would be amazing! Thats just a few more years more. He always said that he will keep going until he can't hold up the Bird's head anymore. That's understandable. Apparantly it has quite a weight to it. He is still doing Oscar though. Maybe if he needs to, he will retire from doing...

    That's the movie that Minor muppetz was referring to in regards to David's appearance, not Grouchland. I know its hard to tell from the way it was written, but i got it.

    Big Bird banned on a roof

    Whoa! :eek: Okay, there. No need to snap. We didn't know any of that information as it was not included in the article. Some of us don't even know what that means. Geez..

    Talking with kids.

    Sometimes I notice that when they do talk segments between a Muppet and a kid these days, the kid looks bored and not too into it for the most part. As opposed to the earlier days when Herry would be talking to Jon Jon or something with such casuality and ease. Like they were having a real...

    So you want to audition for the Muppets?

    I wish I could perform Pepe the way I write for him. Which proves that a truly great character is a perfect marriage of both talented performers and great writers.

    Grover LOVES the ladies!!

    Initially, I think it is Frank Oz playing around and being cute. I don't percieve it as being like a ladies monster, i just think he likes to flirt with nice ladies that pay visits to the show. Like a little shy school boy crush or something.

    Grover LOVES the ladies!!

    So have any of you ever noticed how Grover flirts with the women a lot? In the "Sing After Me" sketch he says to Madeline Kahn "You are looking highly attractive today." and then to Lena Horne he once said "You're a nice lady. You're a good kisser too." Its so silly. i don't know of any...

    Yeah you would think if he can eat through a car, he can chew apart the bars on the cage in a flash. He was a little too interested in the Cookie;s though. Besides, you know how much noise he makes when he eats, maybe he would have been to loud eating the cage and waking the brothers up...

    multiple character dubbing in early years

    That would be annoying to have to cut and edit a song like that. I don't think they make it that much harder on themselves.

    Isn't it a beautiful film. i mean, it just looks so good the way they made it. Very authentic. The on location shots are good too. The writing was also very smart. It never played down to its audience which is something Sesame Street had believed against from the beginning. It was a kids...

    Characters You'd Like to See Return to the Street

    Yes, I recall reading this. I think that she fits the whole prissy brainy 7 year old persona quite well.

    Characters You'd Like to See Return to the Street

    Yeah, true. But they showed a lot of lost characters during those clips too. Poor Prairie. I actually think she is so underrated. She is such a great character. In fact, I hope in the new SS doc. they have interviews or something with Fran Brill. I don't know much about her at all and...

    I dunno, but they rebuilt a different Street set other than the one used on tv. The new one would be better for making a movie as it looks more real and 3 demensional. They wouldn't use the tv set because it is procenium one sided street. This way they can show the whole neighborhood. A big...

    I woulda put Pepe as Stewie personally. I mean, if you wanna get into the whole greedy, wanting to take over the world and i hate my co-workers/family in general kinda thing. Plus they are both foreign

    So you want to audition for the Muppets?

    Yeah, its not like people are putting on their own independent Muppet productions with his character. Its only for little promotional appearances in theme parks and stuff that Steve Whitmire doesn't have time to do. It's like Sesame Street Live type stuff i am guessing. Kermit is not being...
