I always pronounced it 'SIGH-klee-uh'. No idea if that's correct. As far as releasing stuff, aside from the profit margin, I can see a couple of issues. First, there's the editing. IIRC, Cyclia was a dance club, not a film, and the video was random footage to be projected on the walls (or...

Ooo, I loved Muppet Racemania. But my brother's run off with it. Gotta go hunt him down & make him give it back. Or at least challenge him to a Chicken Chase. I never could beat the Statler & Waldorf boss level (I think from the Muppet Christmas Carol level); I made my brother do it. It took him...

I just wanted to say, the 9th-birthday banner is particularly cool. Nice selection of Muppets--I especially liked Bert & Ernie in the plane! ta, wombat

G'day, all, A friend of mine forwarded me the following announcement & I thought somebody here might be interested. Makes me wish I was on the West Coast--and in college! :D Ta! Wombat Woman Position: The Jim Henson Company media library located in Hollywood seeks an intern to...

Hi, everyone, I'm trying to find some clips for a video salute to Jim on September 24th at our local art museum. I have lots of later stuff, but I'd really like to toss in some early things--stuff from the 50's & 60's (Sam & Friends, commercials, Jimmy Dean Show, etc.) I'm also looking for...

Starburst editions (as opposed to "Stargate") are re-releases of Farscape on DVD with even more extras. Thankfully, they are actually cheaper than the original releases. (Also thankfully, I only bought the first season in the original release, so I'm not out too much!) I haven't purchased the...

Found a nice Henson article in Mental Floss magazine (July/August 2005). Five pages overall, mostly a bio of Jim, but some more recent news as well. Not to mention an article on stamps, and 'Romania: The 50 Cent Tour,' and Uncle Sam's roots. How can you beat that? :zany: ta, wombat

I know I'm totally late on this thread, but........ I cannot believe no one mentioned Johnny Fiama. I love Johnny. He's just the coolest. ta, wombat

How about 'grinning like a Cheshire cat'? :D ta, wombat

Yes, but is she kosher ? .....ta, wombat

In college I took a class taught by Dame Billie Whitelaw, who voiced Augra in Dark Crystal. And didn't Jim have something to do with Dark Crystal? ta, wombat

Alternate translation In the days before DVD's and subtitles, a friend of mine claimed the line was "Your mother is a Fraggle." :zany: ta, wombat

Hi--I tried to send an email to y'all earlier today, and got back the message 'file not found.' Any ideas what happened? Is it just my computer--again (*sigh*)? Thanks!! Dawn

Hullo, all, I've a couple of Elmo trivia questions that I hope someone(s) can answer. First, what season/year did Elmo's World premiere? Second, in Wisdom of Big Bird Carroll Spinney states that Elmo was originally Baby Monster in one of the first seasons. Anyone know which one? Oh...

Sesame Street's "Best of Kermit" video has the song on it as well. ta, wombat :zany:

:confused: Could somebody (or somebodies) perhaps pull together an annotated timeline for the entire henson/em-tv relationship? Dates, useful articles, press releases, that sort of thing? It might be a useful addition to MuppetCentral (Phil & Cindy willing), and it would very helpful when I...

Great job! Outta the way! Johnny Fiama's mama comin' through! Dawn

Ta! Thanks, Jeffy! Just tryin' to do my part to keep the "fanatic" in "fan." ;) Borrow it anytime you like. Dawn

Oh, frabjous day! Calloo! Callay! *HAPPY-dancing wombat* :zany: joy, oh, glee, oh glory :zany: Dawn

worth unlurking for! :cool: *happy-dancing wombat* :cool: Any Muppet project that has me falling off the couch having giggle-fits is a definite keeper. Loved the red-neck Who's, loved Whoopi as the boss, loved the snowman, but mostly I loved having the whole gang being their outrageous...
