    New Kermit Song: A Smile Connects Us

    Hey folks, I just noticed that there is a new song by Kermit on the Marlo Thomas album "Thanks and Giving All Year Long." It's called "A Smile Connects Us." I just bought it on iTunes, but I haven't gotten a chance to listen yet. Anyway, sorry if it's been discussed before, but I just...

    Conan gets the Tonight Show!

    Did you all hear that Conan O'Brien is poised to take over the Tonight Show from Jay Leno in 2009? I love Conan, and I'm glad that NBC has such faith in him. I hope that his comedy doesn't have to change too much for the earlier and broader audience, but he's such a genuinely talented guy...

    Ernie and Bert on Conan

    Hey folks, Apologies if there's already a thread on this--I couldn't find one. Anyway, did anyone see the brief appearance of Ernie and Bert on Conan O'Brien last night? He was doing a segment on how the media tends to exhibit political bias, and he showed a clip from PBS on a...

    How YOU doin? (The Joey thread)

    Hey there, What did you guys think of "Joey" tonight? I thought it was pretty good, especially for a pilot episode of a spinoff. There were some things that made me laugh, and I'm sure the characters will grow on me in time. Anyway, just curious to hear what you all thought. :confused:

    Top Honors for Bunsen and Beaker!

    Hi folks, I just saw a new story at CNN that proudly proclaims that Bunsen and Beaker have been named the top screen scientists of all time. Read all about it... http://www.cnn.com/2004/SHOWBIZ/TV/09/05/muppets.scientist.reut/index.html :confused: :eek:

    See y'all later!

    Hey folks, Just wanted to say I'll be seein' you later. I'm off to Cleveland to audition for the next season of American Idol! I'm not sure if I'll be online at all, and I'm not sure when I'll be back (it's a multi-part audition process, so the longer I'm there the better I'm doing). See...

    See you soon!

    Hey all, I'm going to be traveling for a while, and my internet time will be spotty at best. So, if I don't post anything (or if I don't post regularly) until mid-June (after travel and after moving), don't worry about me. Have a good few weeks!! :) Andy

    End of "Friends"

    Anyone want to talk about the end of "Friends"? What did you all think? I was very satisfied by it. Everyone was taken care of--nobody stranded. Good stuff.

    Weird Al's parents...

    I just read the saddest thing. Weird Al's parents died yesterday from carbon monoxide poisoning in their home! Many of you know what a big fan I am of "Weird Al" Yankovic--my recent concert review just scratches the surface of how much I admire the man. I'm so saddened by this, and so many...

    My Weird Al Concert Review!

    Hi everyone, I didn't know what thread to post this in, so I just thought I'd start a new one. Anyway, yesterday over in the hot tubs (I think), I mentioned that my wife Joyce and I were going to see Weird Al at his Iowa City concert. We were really excited aboutt it, since he was...

    Your hopes for Muppets/Disney

    Hi everyone, Like most people I was shocked by the news last night of Disney buying the Muppets. There's been a lot of activity over on the existing thread, most of it very negative. Emotions run really high on this topic, naturally. I'm not trying to argue with people who are upset by...

    Who makes music?

    Hi there, everybody. I was just wondering who makes music, and how? I was trying to figure out the other day if all people have an impulse within them to make music somehow. Even if it's just whistling, humming, singing in the shower, it seems like many of us find a way to express ourselves...

    Favorite Sesame Street Books

    Hi everyone, I was just wondering what some of you remember as your favorite Sesame Street books. When I was little we had a ton of Sesame Street books, and I loved them so much! I would read them over and over. I especially liked The Monster at the End of This Book Cookie Monster and...

    Muppets in Entertainment Weekly

    Hi everyone, There's a nifty little Muppet reference in this week's Entertainment Weekly (with Nicole Kidman, Renée Zellweger, and Jude Law on the cover). On page 49, the "Best of the Muppet Show" DVDs rank as the number one item on this week's "Must List." The caption under the nice group...

    Sesame Christmas Album Changes

    Hi everyone, I was wondering if anybody has a list of the changes to the Sesame Street Christmas Album. I bought this on CD a couple of years ago, and it's identical to the old 8-Track we used to have when I was little except for the fact that a number of characters have been dubbed in who...

    Misheard Song Lyrics

    Hey everyone, I was wondering which song lyrics you've misheard, and what you thought they said. There's a good Muppety reason why I'm asking... My wife and I were watching "Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas" last night, and I remembered a line from "Barbecue" that I had always misunderstood...

    Very low-cost Muppet DVDs...

    Hey there, Normally I wouldn't shill for Walmart, but I was just there this morning (to get contact lens stuff--man, that's pricey at the grocery store), and I saw "Kermit's Swamp Years" and "Elmo in Grouchland" in the $5.88 dvd bin. Many Walmarts seem to have these bins, so I just thought...
