Muppets haven't done very well as midseason replacements, but then I fear it'd be even worse if they started at the beginning of the season. Call me crazy, but March-April has never worked out for the Muppets. I hate to say it, but the Muppets might work best as a summer series when there's...
Actually, I think Dave played the Chef for his brief scene in MFS. But the general rule still applies: Kermit has sung with Rowlf, as Sarah noted; Piggy and Fozzie exchanged a dialogue in the same film; the Chef has talked to Waldorf before; and in VMMCM, Kermit and Rizzo exchanged a few...
In addition to the possible Batman movie, and the Superman movie for which they're COMPLETELY reworking his origins and his basic story, they're doing Catwoman with Halle Berry and basically just ripping her storyline out of Batman Returns. So we're basically going to get a retread of what we've...
I don't think Rowlf's absence has anything to do with Pepe. All of the performers juggle multiple characters. It has more to do with if the writers decide to use him, or if Bill doesn't feel comfortable in the part yet.
Here's to more :sympathy: !
If anyone has a clip of the voices from RaceMania, PLEASE post them! I've never had a chance to hear them myself.
Does anyone remember Dwayne? He used to post at the Delphi MC forum a lot. We got in a Muppet Impressions contest once, and he did an absolute dead-on Scooter. It was so good it...
GPrime's right, Ernie. With widescreen, you get much more of the picture than in the "fullscreen" image. The image may be bigger, but they're lopping off the sides of the picture to make it that way.
For a fuller discussion of this, see the "Disney DVD News" thread under the General...
And it's not just merchandise (re Scooby). There's a new show, What's New Scooby Doo?, airing on both the Cartoon Network and the WB's kids lineup that's the best incarnation of the show in years. And Cartoon Network is also showing reruns of all the different Scooby shows both daily and in...
I still see a lot of Pooh stuff here in L.A. Disneyland just opened a new Pooh ride, and that's getting a lot of press. And I've seen no end of Scooby on TV and in merchandise; I think Warner's is pushing Scooby harder than anything else right now, in fact.
Luke, don't get me wrong--I would...
Fox is tricky about their loyalty. They've clung to certain shows with mediocre ratings but strong cult followings (Family Guy, Futurama) while Andy Richter has been treated abysmally by the network. I think it may be that there's such a long lead time before a cartoon show can get on the air...
Jamie: I'll agree that Bernie Mac is a good show, and That 70's Show is something of a guilty pleasure. I suppose Wednesday would be the other night of the week that the Muppets would play well, when those shows are on. But I just want the Muppets to be on the BEST night, to get the most...
Yeah. Fox's programming is mostly garbage 6 nights of the week, but Sunday night is a fabulous comedy night, and I think the Muppets would play well in between The Simpsons and Malcolm (which IMHO isn't fading at all). I can't think of anything like that where the Muppets would fit in on NBC's...
Phil,
Just listening to the updated Radio. Fantastic job! Sounds great. And I'm getting a string of really good songs in a row. It started with "Follow Me" from Fraggle Rock (and right now as I type this, it's playing the reprise, which I've never heard! How cool!).
Anyway, keep up the...
Bravo, Jamie! This is so much fun. I particularly like how the one lady (Johnny Fiama's mama?) is hitting Sal in the pot!
My favorite is still the Fantasy Worlds one, but that's just personal choice. Nothing wrong with this one at all! Looking forward to the next one! :)
I don't think Song of the South has been outright banned, because that would be a government mandate. Disney itself chooses not to release it in video format or for TV broadcast. It's a shame, because from what little clips I've seen, it's some of Disney's best work. And ironically, from what I...
No problems, Jaga. I had to think about it for a minute before I realized it myself. :)
I agree with Jamie and Radionate. Working with a strong financial partner is what Henson needs, while retaining their own creative identity. It was quite revealing to discover that Brian and family were...
Beautifully put, Jaga! Though I think creating a family and raising the kids exceeds even Jim's other considerable accomplishments. :)
Does anyone know if the Creature Shop was part of this sale? (I think one of the articles I read said the Sesame characters were part of the sale. Are we to...
This is insane. This is totally out of the blue. This is ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!!! :) (Except for Stevie. Sorry, dude! Don't take it personally.)
I didn't even know the Henson kids were seriously in the running. This is like something out of one of the Muppet movies -- the whole gang bands...
That's awesome! Thanks for writing, Kevin. I wouldn't have had the guts myself -- I would figure the Henson folk would just roll their eyes at us. But that was a really impressive response! Henson people rock! :D
OK, so they used a different puppet because of the copyright issues. (Guess...
