    Favorite non-Henson puppet shows growing up

    Considering how many creative types that worked for Henson and Sesame Street, there's no need to question why. Even Henson puppet designer/illustrator Michael Frith did some designs and helped shape the show. I consider it the Muppets' closest cousin. if nothing else, a cousin show to Sesame...

    Muppet Film and TV References

    From The Cleveland Show, "Nightmare on Grace Street" episode... Donnie, an annoying guy who wants to be Cleveland's friend, but Cleveland always blows him off tries hanging out with the Browns when they're trick or treating. At one house, Donnie jumps out and yells something to the extent of...

    Disney Store Muppet Merchandise Released

    Seriously... would it have KILLED someone to make a series of Rango PVC's? Even a premium company like NECA who would have done beautiful sculpts? I couldn't even get the Rango BK figure and had to suffice with Beans and the Rattlesnake. The other 3 "toys" were just AWFUL! A Light up badge, a...

    Sesame Workshop Trying To Have It Both Ways(Bert/Ernie issue)

    The drunken frat boys are how these things start... then some of these drunken frat boys become writers, and then they shove jokes about it into shows. Then they become mainstream. Like, the Scooby-Doo movie was FULL of all the things people said in the early 90's about the characters...

    The Missing Link Hogthrob

    Plus, Piggy would actually be disgusted with the thought of being in a relationship with Link. Link disgusts her. She's ehhh with Strangepork, yet seems to respect him on a scientific level sometimes... Somehow, Link couldn't be in a committed relationship. That would require him to share...

    The Muppet Show...Continued?

    That sort of movie would have to have a more casual audience take a huge leap of faith. If there's one thing Disney did right it was NOT using that film to relaunch and re-introduce the Muppets. There's too much theater of the absurd that, while it would fit in perfectly with the Muppets...

    Disney Store Muppet Merchandise Released

    Worst thing is, I was literally blanketed with Rat stuff... I loved the movie and wanted some toys... all I wound up getting was the 4 Pez, the bean bag of Gusteau, and 2 lollipop push pop type things with tiny little Remy and his brother riding piece of food that are displayed (and connected to...

    Dreamworks to make Captain Underpants movie

    Kung Fu Panda was NEVER a book. The writer just appears to have really liked the movie. I personally feel it's THE film that Dreamworks grew up and matured on, and it doesn't have the in your face edginess the previous films had. In fact, it was treated as almost a real kung fu movie...

    Sesame Workshop Trying To Have It Both Ways(Bert/Ernie issue)

    I think they're just trying to cash in off a meme. I think Sega actually got Dr. Eggman to say "SnooPING AS usual, I see" in a game... he did it in the Archie comics I'm anxiously waiting for a T-Shirt... but chances are, I'd have to make one myself. Basically, this is a snide little aside...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets on WWE Raw SuperShow October 31

    Eh... exposure is expose, and this is no different to me than Miss Piggy hosting So Random. Well, one key thing, as Disney doesn't own the show. This clearly was more for fans of wrestling who like the Muppets than Muppet fans. Remember, WE know the movie's coming out! We knew when the movie...

    Here's your Walter Plush

    That and a PVC set are the things I want to see the most. Hopefully there ARE some coming as soon as the movie drops. The Large plush are too pricey and take up too much space for me. Not that I don't still want these, of course.

    Singing Christmas Kermit & Piggy at Walgreen's

    Say... those are quite good. Heh. Much better than singing ones. I like my plush toys NOT to talk. Mainly because I bought a King Julian...what do you call those bean bag dolls that make sounds upon impact?... uh... one of those, and it NEVER shuts up.

    Halloween is just around the corner

    YAY. I got to mope around the house all day. I'm really considering harshly demoting this holiday as my second least favorite under Valentines day. For the same reasons, of course. Halloween, unless you're a kid or an adult with somewhere to go, it's just another day. Actually, worse...

    New Regency Lands ‘Fraggle Rock’ Feature Rights Auction

    Still, you gotta wonder why they made a Marmaduke movie. I mean, Alvin and the Chipmunks have always been around in some form, as is Garfield (those Garfield movies are dead to me because they ruined Jon Arbuckle). But Marmaduke? A comic from the 50's that wasn't even funny then, and had a...

    Will there be Muppets McDonalds toys?

    On the subject of these NOT being a promotion... I kinda had one of those Puss in Boots Kid's meals... they started the forced apples in the kids meal thing. The thing of fries you get is PUNY! And I'd almost rather a whole apple than crummy little cut up ones that taste of lemon juice or...

    Muppet Movie Clip: "Coming With Us"

    I refuse to see the clip on the grounds that I have to completely remove myself from spoilers. And let me tell yah... I'm breaking an actual sweat NOT clicking that link. I desperately so want to see that clip right now, but there's something special about saving as much as possible for when I...

    New Regency Lands ‘Fraggle Rock’ Feature Rights Auction

    I have no doubt that, much like Jimmy Neutron and Barnyard, it will be a completely CGI film that will serve as the pilot to the CGI cartoon series. So far I have been impressed with the new IDW TMNT comics (getting Kevin Eastman back and all, he's clearly more hungry for the project than Peter...

    Disney Store Muppet Merchandise Released

    Personally, I dislike the whole Blind Box fad, since Japanese blind box figures are just....soooooo much cooler... And every single last one of them cost less than a Simpsons/Futurama/Family Guy Kid Robot figure... and at least 3 of them came with Candy. I know Golgo 13 came with chocolate...

    Why people dislike modern Sesame Street

    The writers are trying to do the best with what they have. They're still stuck with a format that kids really like, but adults not so much. The writing of certain bits has really gotten stronger, but guessing game type episodes just don't work for me. Once a season if they have to... we had...

    Best "Occupy Sesame Street" Pictures and Spoofs!

    If he is, he's clearly tippytoing. Anyone else would shove us the heck in there. But that thing only says Kuwait. It's a no win situation, since the **** country's stuck with that stupid piece of land and those kookoo countries. Ron Paul is the only one I trust to get us out of there, but...
