Thank you Mrs. P. for the welcome and kind words. That little bird is Seamus, he is the liaison between the folks that live in Metro-Burbs and the viewers. He is quite the character, and I'm very fond of him. You should see him in clay form, very cool. I am the creator of the show and all...
First - just wanted to say that I think this forum should have some kind of blue ribbon on the front page noting that it is the "Home of Nice People." I just see the kindest, most generous posts and replies.
Anyway, I probably posted this in the wrong area but I started a blog a while ago...
now that I re-read the release, this line does seem a bit un-henson:
Kevin single-handedly created a phenomenon
As no one, including Frank Oz, would ever take sole credit for ANYTHING. Usually, folks get to review this before it goes out, wonder if he did....
This also shows how busy he'll continue to be...

Ta-Dahhh! It's Jim Henson Creator of Kermit the Frog And King of the Muppets; The Creator of Kermit the Frog And the King of All the Muppets.
Jim Henson slips his right hand into what could be mistaken for a big green...
Not sure if this is the right section to post this but thought it made most sense here. It is difficult to find old interviews w/ Jim Henson. I think this site only has one in their archives. I'm hoping to locate any and all to share w/ you. If you have any, please direct me to them as I would...
It seems that the short Q&A I posted with Frank Oz got a lot of attention. I have read a few others but most have him staying away from elaborating on the Henson days except for one..... I pasted the link below from AINT IT COOL NEWS but I also pasted in the parts I think you would care about...
ok, going back to what is needed in Sesame Street today. Here are my two:
1.) More of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwOaSIEWqEo
The spontaneity of these moments are still stuck in our memory. The show was structured but allowing the kids to alter the show really added to the enjoyment...
I know this is a forum for all things Muppets but I would be remise if I didn't share this will all of you, as I'm sure you would appreciate it as much as I did. As Sophia Petrillo would say, "Picture this, 1969..." the US Senate had a hearing in that year about cutting the funding for Public...
Let Me Propose a Question
If you were to get a call from the folks at Sesame Street about what you think could be done to keep the essence of the educational value intact but enchance for the entertainment value. What would you suggest doing? If you post, let's keep it down to two specific...
he was disgusted that they changed the Snuffleupagus character. Can you imagine if she told him that Cookie Monster has been eating less cookies and more veggies to help kids eat better.....
I had the opposite reaction rexcrk, it made me sad. Obviously, it is great to hear someone agree that SS isn't what it was originally, or doesn't have the same heart but it is sad too. I remember going into a Sesame Store a la Disney Store, and it was a mess. It didn't have th quality products...
Kermit Love IS alive
A good friend of mine worked w/ him. He just offered some advice on a show that I am developing through my friend. What are your thoughts on having an interview w/ Kermit on the site? Maybe I can compile your questions and get them to him to answer and post his replies...
