    Some new pictures of the Star Wars Muppet Figures!

    To me these look like the best-quality non-Palisades Muppet toys since the Palisades days. Something about Beaker doesn't look right, though. You know, I'm thinking Sweetums would make a good Jabba the Hutt. Or maybe The Swedish Chef (since you can't understand him).

    If "The Muppets" is a success: What's next?

    You know, in the Ask Jim Lewis thread, Jim said something like that when asked about Kermit's limited involvement in Muppets Tonight, referring to it as a "next generation" of Muppets. Of course, The Jim Henson Hour and Muppets Tonight both had more focus on new characters, and both shows were...

    If "The Muppets" is a success: What's next?

    I was thinking tonight, maybe the Muppets could do a documentary-style movie, liek Borat or Bruno (though family friendly, scripted, and of course good). Maybe the Muppets could split up into groups and go into different parts of the world to do interviews, or a relatively small group of...

    The Darkwing Duck Thread

    I think I asked awhile ago if the public seemed to recognize Launchpad as Darkwing Duck's sidekick, but after watching Clash Reunion, I noticed that at the high school reunion when Megavolt first appears at the reunion, Megavolt briefly speaks to Launchpad, even mentioning him by name, but doing...

    MTM and MFS might come to blu-ray

    Hopefully the new sets will have deleted scenes, assuming they still exist. I would hope that all deleted scenes from Muppets From Space would still exist, as that movie came out when DVDs began and DVDs had already included deleted scenes (in fact I think deleted scenes were announced for...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    I don't think this has ever been asked, so I'll ask. I know that The Jim Henson Company required Palisades to make the Miss Piggy figures skinny, but do you remember the reason why the series 1 (and exclusive) Miss Piggy figure didn't have texturing like the other figures?

    Classic Clips on SST Workshop's Site

    The rap version of Write It Down has been posted: http://www.sesamestreet.org/video_player/-/pgpv/videoplayer/0/48c26e7b-233d-4db6-a090-30fbcb81db30/write_it_down I don't recall seeing that version before, but I would like to see the vaudville version again.

    Aristotle finally in action at sesamestreet.org!

    In the case of Telly, the adults thought he was imagining Snuffy, and at the end Telly was convinced he did imagine him (and then when he saw Snuffy's snuffle again he wondered if he was imagining). It is a bit sad that the adults apparently had to see Snuffy to know he was real. They couldn't...

    Your Thoughts: New Muppet Central Forum Features

    So far, I'd say it was not worth waiting a day and a half. Maybe I'll get used to it, but for now it's hard for me to figure things out. And when I click on "forum" on the main page, it goes to the old link, which provides the new link to click on. I hope I can get used to this fast.

    MTM and MFS might come to blu-ray

    Acording to Tough Pigs The Muppets Take Manhattan and Muppets From Space might be getting a blu-ray release this year. It was pointed out on Tough Pigs that the source for the announcement mentioned some actor who wasn't associated with either film, which makes the news a bit suspicious. But if...

    Sesamestreet.org relaunches for Season 39

    It's Pet Animal Day with Rosita.

    The Darkwing Duck Thread

    I was recently watching the episode Clash Reunion, and there's sort of a plot hole that I noticed. Spoiler alert below! . . . Anyway, at the end, after the bullies learn that Drake Mallard is Darkwing Duck and after Drake earns their respect, he uses a hypnotism coin to make them forget that...

    Reinventing "Follow That Bird" (1985)

    No, they were members of the Second City, not SCTV. Most of the SCTV cast members and many SNL cast members were from Second City before becomming part of those variety shows.

    Remembering Richard Hunt

    I think I read a review of Being Elmo which says the documentary includes some footage (and it's recently been announced it'll be released in regular theaters and on DVD soon so we should see some soon!).

    Remembering Richard Hunt

    Speaking of Richard Hunt characters, sesamestreet.org recently added two clips with his blind monster Aristotle, as well as several clips of his portrayal of Captain Vegetable. And I think I prefer Hunt's portrayal of the character. Seems Hunt gave him a bit more personality than Henson did (of...

    What IS the point of Junior Novelizations?

    I don't see a problem with junior novelizations, though I figure the only point of them is to have another merchandise tie-in. But if parents want their kids to read more, then a junior novelization of a popular movie would be a good start. In addition to the upcomming Muppets, Muppets From...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    Well, after reading Muppet Wiki I recently learned of a few other upcoming releases (though they aren't really "new releases"). In July there'll be Sesame Street TV Favorites, which I've seen in stores at Wal-Mart and are single-disc releases of full-hour episodes (the DVDs are titled "Big...

    What new merchandise do you think could or would be released?

    There was a thread about our dream merchandise tie-ins in the Headlines folder. I think it was a sticky thread, but it appears to no longer be sticky. That said, I (and I'm sure all of us) want The Muppet Show: Season Four. Something I recently thought would be cool would be some kind...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    The next DVD after The Best of Sesame Street Spoofs will be Learning Letters with Elmo, which will include at least two street stories. Hmm, I've noticed that when DVDs contain only two street stories (and we don't exactly know yet whether it'll be just two) they usually have linking footage...

    TMNT Season 9 coming to DVD

    One of the Triceritons was featured on the cover of TMNT III: The Manhattan Project, even though they don't appear in the game.
