Okay. Let's try and be constructive...Well, for one they could....maybe make another movie? Like, not a sequel or a remake...but something original like the first three?
Well, yeah, but a couple of times, there were two hands in the front, three heads, a couple hands doing the guitars...I mean the table they were behind is only /so/ large, you know?
No matter how many times I watch the Ed Sullivan episode where the Muppets are a rock and roll group in a box, I can't quite understand how they did that. I mean, how many puppeteers were back there? :confused:
Oh, I forgot about Allegra's window. I /love/ that show. What happened to it?
I thought Big Comfy Couch was pretty good. It wasn't all puppets, but Molly and the Dust Bunnies were. I suppose the Foley Family were puppets in a way. Either way, I think that show was decent for children.
Well, personally, besdies Jim Henson obviously, I think it all kind of went to heck after Richard Hunt died. They said he was the reason for so much of the spirit of the Muppet Show, and I guess that turned out to be true.
I was wondering, I was reading the Richard Hunt sections of Jim henson: The Works and Of Muppets and Men, and they seem to be a little conflicting of each other. In one it says that Richard had joined the Muppets without handling anything more foreign than a basketball, and the other says that...
Maaan you guys are so luucky. I wasn't born, there wasn't a fair chance for me to get Jim and Richard's autograaaaph. Daaarn. :boo:
How'd you get them anyway? Did you write them or meet them?
Hmm. Let me try and figure it out...
Sesame street...Emmett Otter (that one took me a WHILE.)...Fraggle Rock...Hb...hmm...nope no idea...dark crystal...and Labyrinth. Got it! What's HB?
My dad's friend reminds me of Jim Henson. Beard, Kermit voice, height and everything. Almost scary. But, talking of Muppets, I have two friends that are almost exactly like Fozzie and Janice.

No, superboober, don't sound familiar to me, but it does sound /wicked/ awesome. Do you have any idea what it could be called?
And ReneeLouvier, if your still talking about the Great Performances thing, yeah I believe most of it had been made before 94, but I think once Jim died they wanted...
You might be an obsessed Muppet fan also if you found yourself singing the swedish chef theme really REALLY loud in the middle of cooking class without being aware and everyone turned to look at you. Again, me. Sigh.
Also, if your only vaguely lovey-dovey dream in five years has been about a...
I don't believe so, Tim Kelly, unless I wasn't listening at that part. But that sounds neat, do you know anything else about the tribute that clip was in?
DizzyIzzy, it came out in 1994, four years after he died, but it still might be what yer talking about cause it /was/ technically a...
I haven't seen Sesame Street recently either, but my neighbor went almost psycho crazy because she heard them use bad grammar and not even correct it. And by psycho crazy, I mean "WHAT IS SESAME STREET COMING TO!!!". I must agree. They should clean it up a bit. But it's otherwise a great...
So here I am sitting in my living room while my mom is cleaning up tapes. And she pulls out one called "Jim henson Special" and I figured it was one of them Christmas specials, right? WELL I'm watching it now, and it's, like, this Great Performances thing "The World of Jim Henson" where they...
