As some of you know, former "Fraggle Rock" Muppeteer Terry Angus- who played the Storyteller Fraggle, Brio the Minstrel, and Morris Fraggle- is a member of this forum, and I've been corresponding with him over the past few weeks on the topic of setting up a thread where we Muppet freaks can ask...

I dismissed the show when it first started appearing, but now I know I just wasn't paying attention, because once I did, I found the show to be brilliant in its straightforward, ironic, low-keyed and razor-sharp comedy. It has IMO the best and most tightly knit writing on television. Also of...

Here are some links to clips of him: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006ZXJ6Q/qid=1136597279/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/103-6662799-4241428?s=music&v=glance&n=5174 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000000CX0/qid=1136598636/sr=2-1/ref=pd_bbs_b_2_1/103-6662799-4241428?s=music&v=glance&n=5174...

Wait a sec, you mean NO ONE HAS ANSWERED YET? The answer is because Jerry's daughter had cystic fibrosis, and he would take time off to go back to America to visit with her. This is also stated in Jerry's interview in the Articles section of the main site. Jerry had Statler originally (in...

My all-time favorite singer is gone. That voice- there'll never be another one like it. His talent was so developed, so unique, so wide-ranging- few can compare to it. It's a sad day for the music world. I was fortunate enough to see him live in concert a few years ago- the Saturday before...

Bump again. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Bump. Any favorite parts? David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

According to the new interviews, there wasn't a specific age demographic. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Was that a response to the rhetorical "who better than Jocelyn Stevenson" question? Not a fan or somethin'? Granted, I have certain episodes by certain writers that I tend to prefer but that's nothing against Mrs. Stevenson. Who all of the original FR writers have passed on? I know of...

Didn't Jerry Juhl write the original draft of MTI tho? That said, I would like it if one of the original FR writers wrote the script, esp. series co-creator Jocelyn Stevenson. Who better to write it than the woman who wrote the most episodes of the series save for maybe Jerry Juhl? David...

The Brewsters/Guru puppet was used for two different characters: one was Brewster in "The Muppet Valentine Show", the other was "The Guru" in "The Muppet Show: Sex and Violence" and the first season of "The Muppet Show". Which character is he here, the old codger or the guru? David "Gorgon...

It's generally described as being like an online yearbook, and encompasses colleges and high schools. People have profiles and pictures and groups and such. Naturally I started a Muppet Show group and was the one who broke the news of Jerry Juhl's death to all the Muppet groups (no one...

Bump. I'm assuming that people must not have any of these or I'd get a reply or two. Or maybe just that the people who have them also have everything on my trade list. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

One small edit: In the opening #, "Get Me to the Church on Time" should be in F# Major (which allows the next song to start on the same note the previous one ends on) and not A flat Major (which requires a whole step switch that makes no sense, musically). David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Slowly dredging them up again. Leon Redbone will probably be my next one (but don't hold me to that). David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Yeah, I hate to mention the newfangled thing too, but I figured someone had to sooner or later. I for one am on it. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

I wanted to add a tangent to Fozzie's research comment: research the characters. The Muppet characters that we all work with are multi-dimensional and were crafted with subtlety by Jerry Juhl et al. It's easy to forget certain aspects of the individual characters, such as Boober's vocabulary...

I think it's Texas, actually. In the James Coburn episode, Banana Nose Moldanado's wanted poster said "State of Texas" on it. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

My favorite parts were Wayne & Wanda and the Talking Houses- surprising how hard those can be to come up with, ya did good. Btw, where's "At the Dance"? Out of curiosity, why is George made Fozzie's replacement? Does Red sing with Piggy in his first number, or is he annoyed by her...

-Gorgon Heap: Jim -Purple Dragon: Richard -Bull: Jerry -Shaky Sanchez: Dave -Timmy Monster: Frank -Big Mama: Richard -Two Whatnots who sing "Put on a Happy Face": Jim & Richard (with Frank & Jerry on the hands) Oh, lots of 'em. Zelda Rose, Boppity, Gloat, Mary Louise, Beautiful Day...
