    Disney greenlights "The Muppet Show" comics

    Also well known for his stint on Fantastic Four, of which I'm also a fan. I think one of the things that Waid did well on FF was really give them a sense of fun, which is what both FF and the Muppets are about. I think if anyone in comics is prepared for this series, it's him.

    Anybody here a fan of John Goodman?

    You know I was actually thinking about John Goodman on the way home from work tonight. Weird. Yeah, I love John goodman. I think he's a brilliant actor. Very sincere. Very funny. But i find that he chooses really lousy projects. Ok, there are some exceptions. But when you look at the...

    TMS Season 4 Bonus Feature Thoughts

    The big thing I want to see is more of the interview footage. I know there's stuff that Disney shot when they announced they were working on the DVDs, but there's also a HUGE amount of archive footage that Jerry J, Frank and Brian shot when they did the "World of Henson" documentary for PBS...

    If Jim hadn't died in 1990

    you know somebody posted the pitch tape for JHH on youtube the other day and watching it, it struck me just how ambitious Jim was and how many ideas he had. I know it's a term that gets thrown around a lot but Jim really was a visionary and the Muppets were just a small part of that vision. if...

    Labeling April Fools threads

    my memory is that any fake news was labeled as such. It's possible that they don't do it anymore and I just haven't noticed , but I think after April Fool's Day it's a kind of annoying to see threads for news that isn't real especially since a lot of people come here for their Muppet news...

    Labeling April Fools threads

    Hey guys, In the past, MC has always done a good job of labeling the April Fools threads after the day is done with. Was hoping we could toss some of those on a lotta the phony news threads that are out there. Thanks in advance. --Matleo

    Questions for Fran Brill?

    Hey Steve, I'd like to know what it was like working on Dog City and the tv series that followed, The original special is, I think, one of the best projects Henson ever did. Also, delving into her non-Muppet career a bit, what was it like working with Frank Oz on "What about Bob"? Was...

    How is Jerry Nelson doing?

    I was actually at a Henson function once where he said Fraggles was one of his two favorite projects to do with Muppets so I think it's a safe bet that Emmet and FR are the two faves. And Jerry, if you read this, know that you're very much in our hearts and minds. You've shared so many...
