Hey, folks! I got a reminder that today is Phil's birthday, so I had to step in to say: Happy birthday, Phil! I hope things are going well for you and Cindy, wherever you are and whatever you're doing. I know I haven't been here in ages, but I still do think about you folks from time to time...

Wow, a thread that was posted in after 10 YEARS! That must be some kind of record. :) Thanks for sharing with us, ZootFan!

(On a side note, newsmanfan - I love that avatar of the Newsman! What production is it from? I don't recognize it at all.)

Oh, OK. It's hard to tell on the Internet sometimes. :)

:eek: I hope you're joking, Oscarfan! Phil Chapman created MuppetCentral.com.

I found out that Earl had passed away about six months after it happened. And I just saw this thread now. He was a great talent - I loved his writing on DC's Looney Tunes comics - and he was a nice guy. I'll always fondly remember the day that he and Kevin and I auditioned for the Muppets in...

Let's never forget the man who founded this site. Hope you're doing well today!

Christmas Toy. Love it, love it, love it. So funny that it has such a similar plot to Toy Story, and it was made years earlier!

Great poll idea! MFC is far and away the best IMHO because of all the Muppet universes being in one special together. Plus, it's just funny and filled with heart. Second best is MCC, because it's everyone's tribute to Jim and Richard. A Christmas Together is more of a John Denver special with...

Hope it's been a good one. :)

Thanks for your response, hiho! Your breakdown of the film rankings is very similar to mine, which gives me even more reason to be excited. :)

If "hiho" doesn't remember seeing Clifford, then he's probably just in a background scene somewhere.

(jaw drops) Thanks so much for posting all this, hiho! (Indeed, welcome to the forum!) I was just wondering when Disney would have a preview screening. Thanks for letting us know about Pepe and Bobo. What about Rizzo? Does he have any significant screentime? Also, you said this movie is...

Wow, 13 years. You've just hit puberty, MC! Now your voice is going to change and you're going to break out in pimples. ;) Seriously, though - Happy birthday to a great site! Now, not so serious: 2011 predictions - A prime-time Sesame Street 42nd anniversary special! Direct to video...

Um, today is Phil's birthday, isn't it? I don't see a new message thread for it, just this one from '08. Anyway, happy birthday, Phil!

Wow. 12 years? That's staggering. And I came to online Muppet fandom in Jan. 2000, so it's a 10-year anniversary for me! Congratulations, Phil and Cindy, and everyone else who have put such hard work into this site over the years. Keep it up! And, now, just because I'm not here that often...

Hey, I found something good to say about FtB! :halo: It turns out that Joe Nussbaum was the writer on many of those episodes. Nussbaum wrote and directed the brilliant short George Lucas in Love, which manages to spoof both Star Wars and Shakespeare in Love in just under 7 minutes. Joe...

Thank you! I see your point. I still like Dave and Steve better. But your post is an example of a polite, well-thought-out argument.

I'm very good friends with Phil and with Kevin. They know I have the right to express my opinion. We all do. You have the right to express your opinion, too. That's what a forum is for. But it isn't very polite of you to tell me what I can and can't say about Disney. I don't totally hate...

I'm not saying anything new here. Read the rest of this thread. A lot of people don't like From the Balcony because Disney booted Statler and Waldorf's regular puppeteers out of their jobs. I'm not knocking the Muppets or Statler and Waldorf. I'm knocking Disney for not caring about the...
