Any character recast takes time to get used to. I remember way back in the early 2000s, I couldn't quite get used to Eric's Bert and Grover, David's Cookie, and I thought Matt's Big Bird sounded similar to earlier Caroll performances when Big Bird was more of a yokel than a kid. That was...

I came... I saw... I got blowed up... *Faints*

I don't know how you mean... like I said, whenever it comes to "campaigns" (if you can call them that) like this, we traditionally make relative signatures AND avatars, lol.

As of late, I've been doing more and more Muppet (and SST) artwork on deviantART, and I'm certainly happy to see that it's going over so well, because frankly, I was getting sick of everybody who watches me being interested only in my Alvin and The Chipmunks artwork, which I've been working...

I'm game. Avatars wouldn't hurt too... it's just like in the old days whenever we campaigned to get people who had left to return to the forum. But I'm glad to see that this is FINALLY catching on with people now! There was too much of people who were in this league holding their tongues...

I've been saying it for at least a couple of years now, but I would love nothing better than to see MC return to a state of peace and tranquility, as in the old days, but it's going to take more than just US (as in old-timers, and regulars) to make it happen, it's going to take the cooperation...

Here's something else that has occured to me... where in actuality would the tire swing be hanging from? Illustrations of the street in storybooks and magazines and such were never entire accurate to the set, and usually have a large shade tree behind the fence, overlooking the arbor, which...

On the subject of noticable changes to the set over the years, when do you think the set has looked the most realistic (as in you feel it really does look just like an actual inner city street, as opposed to a set on a sound stage)? I kind of feel the very late 80s and very early 90s is when...

Another one of my trivial observations, but until recently, this is something that went by me... Has anyone noticed that continuity error with the time of day during the special? - Everyone leaves the skating rink and journeys home, while it's sunset. - Big Bird and Patty meet up with...

Whoa, really? That brings a whole new understanding to Oscar saying "It used to snow, but it got too expensive" in an interview... of course then again, the set was smaller and simpler back then, thus requiring less snow to cover. Remember Elmo's World: Happy Holidays? There was barely any snow...

Honestly, I'd be happier if any other two moments other than "the finale" and "Henry Blake's death" made these lists for a change. :smirk:

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/80-greatest-moments-tv-history-60936 Unfortunately, the Muppets (in general) is rather far down on the list at 78, but SST did a bit better at 29.

Yes, but Caroll has ALSO said that Elmo has been like the new baby brother that you have to get used to sharing attention with.

So many people are always complaining about how SST isn't the same anymore, and that it's not as good today as it was when they grew up with it: a lot of people cite because of the constant "modernization" of the sets, characters, show and educational content, etc, but yesterday, after reading...

Well, I'm glad at least you've enjoyed this Marty, lol.

Yay, for once Google came through, and the site/blog's been restored.

Actually, New Kids on the Block is the name of that band, the puppet troupe was just Kids on the Block; but yeah, they do travel to schools, I remember when I was in Grade 4 or 5, they came to my school and did a show about a little girl having to deal with divorced parents. OT - I'm sure I...

Norton used to be top-of-the-line. Not trying to start an argument, but in general, Norton passed its prime years ago. Most would insist that Kaspersky is the current top dawg of anti-virus software, I don't have it, but I've heard mostly positive reviews about it (save for apparently it's...

Yes they do. Back in February, they were responsible for me being infected SIX times by the exact same virus (the dreaded XP Guardian/Security/Whatever virus). They mostly stem from those annoying ads of theirs that automatically refresh themselves every 30 seconds, which is why a lot of...

How did I know? So anyway, no response from Google, so the appeal has been "taken to the next level" to have it restored. I would think it would be, as sometimes when I check, I can see in the loading process that the actual blog does try to load before being redirected to the "Blog was...
