My impression of Jim Henson's message is that he wanted to educate as well as entertain, thus we had Muppet Babies, Fraggle Rock, TMS, etc. I'm doing my Senior Project on him next year & I want to do this: On the research paper portion I want to do a piece on his life and works, even today...

I thought they got Fraggle Rock, hence the resurgence of Fraggle plushies and whatnot. BJ

Thank you! I finally figured out the name of that crawfish-looking thing that came on with the Elephant puppet on MT! It's Pepe! That guy's name was slipping my mind for a long while! :rolleyes: :sleep: :smirk: :concern:

Will they have a Boober plush for us nostalgia buffs who think he's off? Now, I would buy that! BJ

Man! How close are you to Asheville, NC? That's about an hour from where I live!

thank the heavens above that I didn't buy this issue. That was S-T-U-P-I-D on ZD's part and that's just the reason I don't read it anymore. Seanbaby bashed the Muppet Babies a while back and the last ish I bought was the last ish last year. I will not buy another until Seanbaby is put in with...

LOL! Who would buy those? They cut the one in Westgate Mall in Spartanburg a while back to put a different sob in there. What a waste! >( BJ

I haven't been to the one in Ca, but I am going by the Muppetvision in Florida which has a whole lotta nuttin'! Good luck, and ask about a website! BJ

what region of the midsouth coast are you at, Fozzie? Maybe you're close enough that I can come see you and have my absence excused. BJ

my suggestion is, in actuality, amazon. I think that their selection is unmatched in terms of Muppet stuff. Don't EVER buy anything from Wal-Mart because I use the one in Camden, SC on a regular basis and I don't see ANY Muppet stuff AND they give me the typical Dilbert-like runaround. I...

I thought they were getting rid of those disney stores for no other reason than to get us PO'd. BJ

any online Henson shops? I'd love to get some rare Muppet stuff! BJ

my fave beeker moment is in the Gilda Radner eppy when Gilda slings Beeker around during the "Tap Your Troubles Away" number. He's so cute! BJ

How about the Gilda Radner TMS with the 7-foot-tall carrot and Radner singing the Carrots of Penzance. Also, same show, the "sticky situation" at Muppet Labs with a very "tacky" glue!

sad, but here goes: Kermit as George Jetson Piggy as Jane Jetson Scooter as Elroy Jetson Janet as Jane Jetson Rowlf as Astro another one bites the dust: Kermit as Shaggy Piggy as Daphne Janet as Velma Scooter as Freddy Rowlf as Scooby Doo (notice i used a DOG muppet)

monster at the end of this book was my TOTAL fave! I wonder if they're re-releasing it. I especially loved the last page when grover says "i am so embarrassed." I didn't get the rabbit reference someone else talked about, but if they're re-releasing it, I would buy it on the spot.

you got the spelling or Carribbean wrong! I ALWAYS get this one wrong!!!! anyways, it is titled Carribbean Amphibian and my favorite version is the one Kermit sings with my hero, Jimmy Buffett (my first concert of his was at the tender age of 6 months) on Elmopalooza. I need to get that video...

I had N-O clue that that song included a drug reference! I'll have to listen to the original again anyway to try to catch the drug reference.

sorry I can't help you more, but I would think it would be before 1979 because it's only logical you know. :smirk:

How about the Muppet Babies theme (extended version from the videos) and Lime in da Coconut (best Nilsson song I know of, thanks Jon Blaloc!), plus my favorite song from TMS, "It's not Easy Being Green" (another version w/ Don Henley of The Eagles fame is on Kermit Unpigged; I'll probably get...
