    Jim Hill: Mickey plays it smart in last-minute hopes for Henson

    Nate, From what I have been told, EM.TV is considering all options and if it brings significantly more money breaking up the Creature Shop from JHC is sadly a possibility. Keep in mind though, that the REAL issue behind all of this is time. EM.TV owes 64 million in the next few weeks. So...

    Palisades on the Today Show!

    Just saw Mike Horn's appearance. He did a good job. Mike was humble and yet very proud of the product. He was on for about 60 seconds and was holding the series 1 figures: hair-up Piggy, Bunsen, Kermit, and Dr. Teeth. I was very impressed that Palisades donated 20,000 series one figures. Wow...
