    Two New Sesame DVDs in April

    Here are some segments I'd like to see in the video: On My Pond Willie Wimple: Land Pollution Two-Headed Monster plays with empty juice cartons I Love Trash The Garden Song (I doubt it'll be included, but I'm hoping it will be!) Prairie Dawn's Recycling Pageant A boy leaves water running...

    Behind the Music: Solid Foam

    Announcer: With two members gone, the band needed some repalcements, and fast. Clifford: Luckily, Zoot annd Animal were both willing to perform with us, and it was a good combination while it lasted. Beard: I liked the change, even though Animal kept eating my guitar strings and my...

    Your Thoughts: Howard Tubman

    That's be good, too. A sitcom where the theater is present, but it's not a variety show format. With more plot focus, and maybe having the characters living at either the boarding house or apartment.

    Behind the Music: Solid Foam

    Now let's continue the fan fiction... Announcer: The band was started, and The Jim Henson Hour soon made it to the air. Beard: We all had a lot of fun performign, though we didn't get many chances to headline our songs. Clifford: Although we didn't get to perform much, we did get to hang...

    Disney greenlights "The Muppet Show" comics

    The Incredible Crash Dummies -- Remember these?

    I liked those. The toys were cool. I recall a series, but I can't remember if it were live action or animated. The commercials were funny (including the one with Don Knotts).

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 39

    I mainly saw the first few episodes of the season, but it was good. it took awhile tog et used to the HD format (which resulted in alot of editing styles and camera angles that I'm not used to sseeing on Sesame Street). The 1234 parody was great, as were Murray Has a Litle Lamb and Bert and...

    Sesame Street: 40th anniversary Ideas

    Now that I think about it, maybe it would be great if Murray were to host an anniversary special. Maybe make "Sesame" or "Anniversary" be the word on the street. One thing that would be great for season 40, though I have a feelign they'll either continue the word on the street or have soem...

    Your Thoughts: Howard Tubman

    I think you do have a bit of a point. After reading this, I though *** might be nice if the Muppets did maybe a summer series in which the Muppets work at a summer camp. Have Kermit be in charge of the camp, have Fozzie, Piggy, Gonzo, and a few other established characetrs be counsilors, have...

    Behind the Music: Solid Foam

    Enjoy this fan fic, involving Solid Foam, the band from The Jim Henson Hour. I had considered titling this "Behind the Music: Solid Foam - A True Hollywood Story". Announcer: In 1989, the Muppets main band, The Electric Mayhem, was temporarily replaced with a band called Solid Foam...

    Dr. Teeth Puppet on eBay

    That looks cool, though also a bit weird. It makes me wonder if they made the rest of the band as well.

    Sesame Street: 40th anniversary Ideas

    One thought I'd had, in addition to the announced 40th anniversary DVD, would be a DVD focusing on sketches with supporting characters who are no longer on the show, to appeal to the adult colectors (and us) and possibly reintroduce them to kids. I also thought of one focusing on the most...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppet Show Season 3

    There are a few things I noticed about this season when watching the set. One, it seems that many of the introductions for the opening numbers this year are a bit long, often with interruptions Think about it - Miss Piggy comes out from behind the curtain to tell Kermit what her number with...

    Jim Henson's season 2 films

    A few episodes of The MuppetCast ago, Steve Swanson covered a recent Henson event in Florida, where they screened Henson's number films. He mentioned that Henson made two series of number films, one for season one, and another for season two. However, I wouldn't call his second season number...

    What if VH1 and Sesame Workshop produced a countdown of SS songs...

    This does sound like a good diea. It'd be great if fans could nominate their favorite songs for it as well. But theoretically, if it were a "Top 20" countdown, I'd choose these songs: Rubber Duckie A Song From Kermit One Thing Leads to Another Because We're Friends Things That I...

    Rare Muppet Pbs Promo

    That was funny. I doubt it was from the 1980s, as the Kermit puppet has very noticible felt texture, and a new material was used for the puppet starting with The Muppet Movie.

    Your Thoughts: Howard Tubman

    Man, I watched those clips, and they were great. It's a shame that they were hardly ever shown in the american portions (though Carter did make a cameo in Martin Short's closing number). it seems, however, like they were playing roles. I wonder if Howard would really be rich if he appeared...

    Muppet/Cartoon Sketches with Eyes in the Dark

    In those scenes where it's so dark that you can only see the eyes of teh characters in the scene, does anybody know how it's done? Are there just black puppets matching the black background who are given eyes that match the characters? Is black cloth put over the character (excluding the eyes)?
