The licensing problem with A Frog is Born could have somethign to do with Sam and Friends. I hear that Universal owns the distribution rights to the series. I can't imagine there being many problems with using Sesame Street clips, as a few Disney DVD releases have included Sesame Street clips in...

Tough Pigs has an article about Toy Fare, and mentions what Fraggle Rock characters were on display, but only the Doozer is pictured.

I didn't realise that there was an awards thread (and I have voted in awards threads in the past). It's a shame that I didn't vote (or win anything.... But I guess I deserve not to win). But during a few of the awards, I correctly preditced who was going to be announced the winner (I correctly...

My thoughts would be to have a reporter come to the boarding house to interview Kermit about Jim Henson, and throughout the special (or movie) Kermit would get interrupted by other Muppets, some of whom just report problems in the house, others who want to talk about themselves (and maybe some...

A few plot ideas that I've thougth of for such an idea: Two kids go to the library to do research on Jim Henson for a school report, and at one point they either enter a room that's restricted from vistors or press a red button, and suddenly walls burst and the kids are taken through a sequence...

Recently, I realised that there haven't been any Sesame Street videos or DVDs themed around outer space. I was thinking that this would be a good idea for a DVD release. There are many space-themed Sesame Street sketches that could be included, including the Spaceship Surprise sketches, anything...

I just started a thread on this type of subject. We can talk about it there.

Has anybody seen the TV movie In Search of Dr. Seuss? Wouldn't a Jim Henson version of that movie be great? I don't mean substituting Dr. Seuss and his creations with Jim Henson and the Muppets, but a similar style. Of course, I guess it would be funny for The Jim Henson Company to have the...

I think it's a bit sad that the doozers seem to just be random doozers, not Cotterpin (or The Architect, or Flang, or Wignut, or Wrench). However, I guess it wouldn't be too bad buying many boxes of Doozers. Then people could have many generic doozers. Too bad the other characters don't have...

Did The Muppets go to the Movies have a different closing credits sequence in america than it did in england? I feel like I've read something about this before, but can't remember where.

question for Jim Did you write any of the video material used in the main menu sections of The Muppet Show season sets?

themed groupings This would make for a good selection of bonus clips themed around a certain topic. Counting Count it Higher One Song (Song of One) Pinball Number Count #9 Jazz #10 Kermit counts Twiddlebugs Kermit draws a 2 Mad Painter #2 Sesame Street News: The Count counts Three...

You know, I've never seen her one musical number, or the 1920s tribute sketch (where she supposedly appears). I've never heard her voice. I have nothing to say about her. Fletcher Bird is much better. It's a shame that she didn't at least return for background appearances, such as in the...

I have been wondering if there would be bonus clips if an Old School set were to not focus on certain years, but instead if the sets included random episodes or multi-part epsiodes. Instead of having bonus segments grouped by year, it would be great if bonus segments were grouped by characters...

That does sound like a good idea. I wonder if Sesame Workshop would go for it. I've read elsewhere that it's a pain to upload a 30 minute program online (and each episode is twice as long), and I wonder if Sesame Workshop has to negotiate residuals for free online clips. Still, even though...

question for jim lewis The Muppet website video clips are good, if a bit short (they seem shorter than the average Mupet Show or Muppets Tonight sketches). However, I've noticed that so far the videos mostly feature just a few of the main characters, along with The Newsman and some rats and...

Also, music rights are often different for TV broadcasts and DVD releases, and TV commercials are often broadcast. I think I've read that the Helen Reddy episode features a brief scene where Animal and The Swedish Chef sing Happy Birthday. I hope that Disney has the money to include that...

There were five test pilots for Sesame Street. Another thing that could be done, would be for volume 3 to just include the scene where Big Bird and the adults discuss Mr. Hooper's death as a season 15 classic cut. I'd rather have the whole epsidoe, but from what I've read, not much else of...

It is a really good special. Considering this was apilot, I wonder if Jim Henson ever intended on using the same setting for The Muppet Show (the set looks appropriate for valentine day... Would it look out of place if it wasn't promoting valentine day?). I really like Wally, and Droop, and...

I couldn' figure out how to vote for a guest to interview. I went to the MuppetCast website, and clicked on Kevin Clahs, but didn't see anything that said to submit vote. Anyway, I hope that you interview Kevin Clash. And if you do, make sure you ask about the majority of his characters...
