    Where the Wild Things Are - Movie

    I haven't had a chance to see it yet myself, but apparently Marty Krofft has, and has said "You shouldn't mess with what worked"... but by that, he was refering to how the Land of the Lost movie failed because they tried to fix something that wasn't broken (ala, making the movie a comedy, when...

    Sesame Street 40th Anniversary Website

    You're right, that one was "Big Bird's Storytime"... that too I've had since I was baby, lol.

    Aww Kermit, don't be like that! Come on frog, look at you, you're already a well-toned, mean, green, fightin' machine! So many you have a few extra ounces, so what? You look healthy, frog! Don't give into the media and peer pressures just to be "accepted" by society that demands "perfection".

    Big Bird on Jimmy Kimmel

    I'm not saying he's not funny, what I meant was... to me, to give a former SNLer his own late night talk show would be like giving Sarah Palin her own country... if that makes sense...

    Sesame Street 40th Anniversary Website

    I honestly didn't expect the 80s videos to be as hard to choose from this week, but boy was I sorely mistaken, lol.... Interestingly enough, I found most of my favorite clips were Ernie and Bert-related... clips like "That's What Friends are For", "I Don't Wanna Live on the Moon", and...

    Big Bird on Jimmy Kimmel

    I still don't think Jimmy Fallon of all people needs a late night talk show, but I'd be happy to see this for sure, lol.

    Fur Online

    Well, Jo Ann does have hairy (not furry) fabric that's off-white I can dye for different characters I'm building, but I really need me some punky muppet for a monster... Anything else out there to recommend other than Mendels? Again, they got a great selection and all, I just think the prices...

    Muppet Wiki Trouble

    Ironically, it seems to me that a lot of Wiki-esque sites have similar problems like this... this would happen occasionally with mine and MrsPepper's T*K*O Wiki, but nowhere near as bad as what's been happening with the Muppet Wiki. Come to think of it, I can't even remember the last time I...

    Photo of The Original Telly Monster!

    I'm reminded of an episode from Season 30 (I believe) where Telly mentions to Gina how his hamster, Chucky Sue, likes to watch Mister Rogers.

    What do you use to build a puppet's mouth?

    That's usually why the back of the mouthplates are covered in fabric as well to prevent breakdown of the cardboard. That was one of my earliest mistakes with Steve, and I had to replace his mouth entirely after a while.

    Bugged...

    Man, what's with this? Here it is, the dead of fall, the weather's been cool for a while now, already overnight frost has become common, and winter's just around the corner... Yet, all these bugs are still out and about! Flies, bees, wasps, moths, aiphids, mosquitoes... whatever happened...

    Muppet Wiki Trouble

    Anybody Else Having Problems with Muppet Wiki? Is anyone else besides me having problems with Muppet Wiki as of late? The Wiki has gotten SO slow lately, to the point that I can't get anything done - whether I'm searching for an article, trying to read an article, or even contribute/edit, it...

    What do you use to build a puppet's mouth?

    I haven't had luck with it, I've tried it with a puppet once, and the jaw lost its shape made the puppet look like he had a permanent scowl.

    My Local Paper Did an Entire Spread about SST

    The Knoxville News Sentinel has a "Mini Page" every Sunday in the paper - this page is full of little fun activities like word searches, recipes, jokes, etc for the kiddies, as well as informative insight into whatever the topic is for the week. This week's topic was all about SST in...

    What do you use to build a puppet's mouth?

    No, no, no, absolutely not... if you're talking about like basla wood, that would break too easily. Depending on what you're wanting to go with, there's two possibilities for you... 1. If you want just a simple mouth that can open and close and nothing else, I would recommend some sturdy...

    That'll be awesome, lol. I just hope his overall first appearance is nowhere near as freaky as Snuffy's first appearance.

    Episodes that Have Stuck with You

    Speaking of Telly and trips, I'm suddenly remembering an episode from I believe was from Season 30 or so... I seem to remember seeing it during 1999 or so in which Telly is set for a playdate with Big Bird, and Mumford decides to help Telly get there quicker, but ends up zapping Telly to various...
