    The Muppet Mindset

    Impressive. Over the last few weeks we've gotten two fan testimonials from children. Interesting.

    Whatever happened to the Muppetzine articles?

    Around the time that Muppet Central got started, there was a section that reprinted articles from Muppetzine. But over the years this section seems to have vanished. What happened to the Muppetzine articles? It seems to me like they were removed around the time Tough Pigs started... Did Danny...

    Possible future Lionsgate Henson DVD releases

    I hope the deal hasn't ended already. I don't know how well the releases sold, though I'd suspect Sesame Street: 20 and Still Counting probably sold as well as the average Sesame Street release. Is there any way of knowing DVD sales? Some of the releases have been hard to find. I've only...

    Muppet Mindset Interview with Kevin Clash

    Good interview. The only things I would have added would be discussion on Leon (such as why he was dropped after The Jim Henson Hour) and Baby Sinclair. I had never really noticed Clifford's personality change on Muppets Tonight (when it began my main exposure to the character was The Secrets of...

    You forgot to list Charles Grodin in the debunked cameos list.

    Jim Henson's Red Book

    There have been a few entries about certain scenes from The Great Muppet Caper (pool sequence, parachute sequence... I'm thinking there was another but can't remember), but I haven't seen any entries about any scenes from The Muppet Movie or The Muppets Take Manhattan. I would expect Henson to...

    More Looney Tunes DVDs coming to DVD in April

    It's been announced that a Road Runner set, titled "Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote: Supergenius Hilarity", will come out on may 24. The contents have been announced... And this will be the first of the Super Stars sets to include cartoons that came after Warner Bros. officially stopped producing...

    Silly Storytime DVD?

    What I've been doing all month in anticipation for this release is watch one Sesame Street News segment at sesamestreet.org per day since the first of january. It's been a bit fun. And of course I've put a note about it in my signature, altering it slightly as the release approaches sooner (and...

    Mr. Peabody and Sherman, The Movie

    I saw at least one, I think the one with Robinson Cruesoe, where after going into the machine they are shown being sent through the air to their location.

    Your dream 2011 Muppet Promotions

    I was just thinking, it would be cool if Disney promoted the new movie with a special, maybe a sequel to The Muppets Go to the Movies, only titled "The Muppets Go Back to the Movies" (a very appropriate title considering this is the first Muppet film in theaters in 12 years). But then again, I'd...

    It's "Slow Down and Relax Day" with Murray Monster.

    Mr. Peabody and Sherman, The Movie

    A good plotline for a Peabody and Sherman movie would be for them to travel in time but accidently wind up in the wrong date. One thing I've wondered is how do they get back? They don't take the Wabac machine with them. It's possible that Peabody has time settings that instantly bring them...

    The Muppet Mindset

    I can't remember if I saw that one or not. I might have watched it on youtube once a few years ago but that would be it (aside from maybe seeing it at an age when I would have been too young to have seen it). Perhaps it would belong on a list of the shows most underrated segments (no I don't...

    Questions that Need Answers!

    I looked up Puppet Heap on Google, and one of the first things to show up was a map of the location. It is located in Hoboken, NJ. I can't remember the exact adress, though.

    Who is Lionsgate associated with?

    I don't think Lionsgate really "ruined" Sesame Workshop. I'm pretty sure that all clips Sesame Workshop uploaded that can be found in "Sesame Street: 20 and Still Counting" and "Henson's Place" are still available on the SesameStreet YouTube channel. I haven't checked in awhile but I'm sure we...

    Jim Henson's Red Book

    Some good info on the parachute sequence from The Great Muppet Caper. http://www.henson.com/jimsredbook/2011/01/21/1211981/ Though I do see some sad things about it. Looking at the list of Muppets as options to use as costumes or oversized dummies, Lips is not listed (but neither are Lew...

    Mr. Peabody and Sherman, The Movie

    I'd like to see a DVD of Crusader Rabbit myself. Or a "World of Jay Ward"-type release, including episodes of all of the Ward serie and unsold pilots. For serial series I'd prefer just all chapters of a storyline, plus one or two of each supporting segment.

    What Surprises Will The Film Hold?

    Hey, I wouldn't have expected Thog to get rebuilt. I'm hoping that Lips appears on-screen (he was rebuilt a few years ago, so why not?). I'll be surprised if it has any Jim Henson Hour or Muppets Tonight characters besides Pepe, if it even does have Pepe, in some sort of significant role...

    Mr. Peabody and Sherman, The Movie

    Those examples of the Washington joke don't ring a bell to me (maybe I should look though The Moose That Roared and see if that running gag is mentioned in the book). Though I do recall a Washington gag in Goof Gas Attack: Rocky: It's (the letter Bullwinkle gets) from washington...
