    Couldn't Kermit be the face of all of the Muppets ?

    And it seems like The Jim Henson Company occasionally gets the copyright credit for Kermit instead of The Muppet Holding Company. Henson got the credit in season 35 (I figure it's because the two anniversary specials and the seasonw ere all completed before the sale), I've read that a season 36...

    Couldn't Kermit be the face of all of the Muppets ?

    Maybe there are already plans. I don't actually know, though. I have wondered if these characters would be off-limits due to being charicatures. Then again, charcters resembling Bert and Ernie show up on the cover of issue #4.

    Couldn't Kermit be the face of all of the Muppets ?

    Recently I have been wondering if Henson might have just been desperate to sell the Muppets in 2004. We didn't know that the company was in talks to sell to Disney until it happened, and I wonder if they might have just been in too much of a hurry to think about the productions it still owns...

    Part Puppet... Oscar/Bruno Costume

    That was impressive. Almost how I'd expect him to look if he was on Sesame Street Live. It's great that you figured out a wa to see with the head on. I've often wondered how Caroll Spinney could see while inside Bruno. I wonder if that's how he did see. Ever since I first read that the...

    Question about SST Clips numbering on Hulu

    I was browsing Sesame Street clips on Hulu today, and I noticed something. Almost every clip includes a season and episode number listed. There are some exceptions (the original Bein' Green, for example). The seasons appear to be accurate, but the numbers are obviously not. The episode numbers...

    Classic Henson Properties Now Available for Merchandise Licensing Opportunities

    This sounds like good news to me. It's a wonder that Fraggle Rock and other shows weren't on Sprout when Hit! had the Henson license.

    I've thought of something that would be cool for the 40th anniversary: an "anniversary day".

    Your Thoughts: The Muppet Show Comic Book

    On your blog, you were wrong about The Cube enver being fully realized. It was broadcast in 1969, and was recently made available for download on iTunes. Maybe you were confusing it with Cyclia, an unfinished film project that i can't really describe.
