Did John Landis only perform grover, or did he perform another character as well?
I know that I have already asked about whether certain performers (like jerry Juhl and carroll Spinney) performed at the end, but do you know if Jim Hensons wife, Jane Henson, performed in that scene? I am not...
I have read about what designs are planned for future sets. although they could be changed, I read that season 2 will have miss piggy (purple dress with pearls), season 3 will have fozzie (brown fur and necktie), season 4 will have gonzo (purple tux), and season 5 will have scooter (green jacket...
I agree. I also think it would have been better if there were group shots instead of individual characters. they would be similar to the group shot on the puzzle that was made a few years ago, with season-specific images.
If all discs had group shots, I think it should be like this...
Whenever the puppet builders rebuild characters, I wonder if they even try to make them look as close to the previous versions as possible. I think that the most obvious changes (like how orange oscar became green oscar, or gonzos appearance change between the first and second season of The...
Actually, He was more major than karen prell on The Muppet Show. He didn't only do rizzo. He also did Miss Piggys dog, Foo Foo, and Lips, the trumpet player. Although his regular characters didn't talk much, he did perform a lot of characters that had lots of lines, including Pinnocchio (from...
Seymour was the Elephant who appeared alongside Pepe on the show. They were a team: Seymour and Pepe. In the first season they were elevador operadors. in the secodn season they worked in the comissionary. Unfortunately, Seymour the Elephant hasn't been used in any Henson productions since...
Zippety Zap was a green muppet who kinda looked like a frog. he was performed by Bill barretta, although I think his voice sounded more like a kevin clash or jerry nelson voice. he wore a white shirt, a butto-up shirt over it (i think it had an orange color), sunglasses, and a hat. If you have...
It seems like we all agree and disagree on what would have happened.
One thing that most of us have said that i didn't mention was the fact that most of the characters who have been used since the show ended (clifford, pepe, bobo, johnny fiama, sal, and to a lesser extent dr. phil van...
Don't apologize. Muppet High School does sound like it could have been a good idea for series, and any thoughts about what could have happened to The jim henson our is welcome/ i wonder if Muppet High School would have been part of the jim henson hour or a different series.
I was referring to the minor changes in these characters, like how most of the monsters had had longer or shorter fur at times, or how their fur has sometimes been a little brighter or darker.
what do you think would have happened if The Jim henson Hour had succeeded?
here are my thoughts:
I have read that the reason why Richard Hunt wasn't availible for this show much was becaus ehe was busy performing in the Ghost of faffner Hall, which was cancelled after one year. if the...
Follow That Bird
I forgot to include what i think about the full-body characters from Follow That Bird and Elmo In Grouchland.
For Follow That Bird, i think that Miss Finch was performed similar to how Big Bird is performed, although there are quite a few scenes (like the feathered friends...
Bobo and Clifford both still make appearances from time to time. Clifford just didn't appear in it's a very merry muppet christmas movie (except for in a picture), and bobo just didn't appear in The Muppets Wizard of Oz. They also don't appear in smaller muppet productions like the Mastercard...
If Muppets tonight had been more successful, what do you think would have happened?
I think that seymour, Nigel the director, and carl would still be around, but Mr. Poodlepants, Bill the Bubble Guy, and Gary Chuenga would be phased out. I think something similar would have happened with...
Just because Disney buys Looney Tunes doesn't mean that they have to buy warner bros. Disney bought the Muppets and bear In The Big Blue House, but they didn't buy the rest of the Jim Henson Company.
If Disney did just buy Looney Tunes, I wonder what kind of problems there would be including...
growing up
My favorite non-henson puppet shows while growing up were mister rogers neighborhood and weinerville. more recently, my favorites are Cousin Skeeter and Greg the Bunny.
Karen Prell, Mak Wilson and Mike Quinn performed the Goslins, and the only other credited puppeteer was a woman whose first name was Angelina. I forget her last name, but she performed mother Goose. karen prell is the only performer on that show that I can identify the voice of, so it is a bit...
yeah, I wasn't sure if i should have mentioned that in that thread or if I should have started a new thread. That thread was originally meant to be about how the bigger normal-sized puppets worked, and went on to discuss full-body characters.
I don't think there are too many differences. hal Miller pretty much looks like matt Robinson without a mustache, and Roscoe orman looks like matt Robinson without hair. For the third gordon, they could have used the replacement as an opportunity to talk about being bald.
I think I have...
