    Why isn't Kevin Clash given other roles?

    I've said it before and I'll say it again... he does so much I'm surprised he even has time to perform Elmo as it is. Every so often you may just see him as someone else. Again, Natasha and one of the Dirtballs inc movers this season... sporadically others. Even if he is happy playing that...

    Hey! They'd be the only people that could make sense of the stock market... Oh! Retail sales were good but not as good as expected so take every dollar you have out so less people can get hired and buy stuff... oh and gas prices are going to hit 5 dollars a gallon because people are saying...

    Help: Muppets From Space Widescreen DVD

    Now I'm glad I bought my double sided disk copy years ago when Best Buy was desperately trying to get rid of them at 5 bucks a pop. I never understood that... Full frame DVD's? I'm SOOOO glad they stopped making movies in full frame that weren't when they come to DVD. I was so sick of...

    Your dream 2011 Muppet Promotions

    I've always been annoyed at how much bigger the girls section was than the boys. I totally dislike the whole gender role placing when it comes to that stuff. Girls buy action figures too. I find it truly ridiculous though, they forcibly change the name of the movie so boys can go see it...

    Your dream 2011 Muppet Promotions

    Good idea. Perhaps have the Swedish Chef, Beaker, and Mahna Mahna on the show discussing the economy. They'd make as much sense of it as anyone else.

    What's your Favorite T.V show

    Yeah, you need to go to Shout's website to get it, as far as I've heard... so unfortunately, no price competition there. It took them YEARS to get that product out there and they have to release it as an online exclusive (not to be confused with the MOD program, these are actual DVD's for...

    Kevin's Response to Criticism?

    Any problems I have with Elmo are a higher up thing, and I feel mostly out of SW's control for the most part. I really don't think Kevin should feel anything personal, since... let's face it, he's one of the hardest working performers out there, and he has more hats on the show than anyone...

    Why isn't Kevin Clash given other roles?

    I'd tend to think the problem IS that he performs Elmo, and that's such a demanding job considering how much SS has to shove him in. Kevin is such an amazing performer and he has a great range of character... from hipster Clifford, to mild mannered Elliot Shag, to a perfectly believable Baby...

    Your dream 2011 Muppet Promotions

    There IS Tangled stuff, you're just not looking where it obviously goes... right into the doll section. After all, she is one of the Princesses, and the character will no doubt be aded to the roster same way that the one from princess and ther Frog was. I haven't seen figure sets, though I did...

    Your dream 2011 Muppet Promotions

    I'd tend to think anything similar to Palisades is not just out of the question, but impossible in the toy market. Though, the only toys I ever see are of movies, so the Muppets may get a shot there. I just wanna see a decent product, even if it's a PVC collection of the commonest characters...

    Top 10 Queerest Muppets by Autostraddle

    I don't for a minute believe Link is... he's a step beyond that, and he's completely and utterly in love with himself. Guess this is supposed to be funny, but the jokes are either too obvious or too out of left field to really have any major satirical properties to them. That said, the Count...

    Exterminating a major rumor before it hatches

    I should hope NOT! Disney seems to be slowly cooling down it's tweenybopper focus (thank Frog) and I would hate for them to just keep thrusting the Muppets into tween coms in order to sell them to tween who don't care who they are or what they are, or why they're there with their favorite...

    Theories why Bear came to an end

    There are just so many things you listed that actually answered themselves. Bear was a much needed jolt, sure... but now people don't want jolt, they want (or are told to want) this anal retentive, highstrung stuff that treats the kids like they're all very slow and unintelligent, having...

    Being Elmo: A Puppeteer's Journey documentary in development

    I'm sure PBS will run this sometime, possibly as part of Independent Lens like The World According to Sesame Street was. You cannot call yourself a Henson fan if you don't hungrily want to see a documentary about any of the puppeteers, no matter who he plays. If they made one about the guy...

    PETA at Westminster

    I ONLY support anime (and games) where the characters fight each other... mainly because they're a LOT more interesting that way. Saint Seyia > Yu-Gi-Oh. Yeah, historically speaking, denying the animal's role in helping humans survive is to rewrite history. You could say, sure, we've lost...

    Your Thoughts: Fraggle Rock on The Hub beginning October 10, 2010

    The cuts are an annoying part of having to fit in more commercials, but it was stated that these were already cut for the Hallmark channel (or whatever it is). But Fraggles on TV is a boon for people who are casual fans who might warm up to getting those season sets or downloading them from...

    Sesame Street T-Shirts

    I hope Kohls gets a bunch in soon. Oh, and Hardware Wars fans might enjoy Cookie Monster's role on that shirt, almost reprising the role of Chewchilla the Wookie Monster. I should buy one just to frame it. I wish they had that on a poster.

    PETA at Westminster

    I agree completely. There are so many terrible things people do to animals, punching and kicking them... setting them on fire... and going after works of fiction... I hate that. I truly do. Like most "organized" groups, it's easiest to pick tiny, winnable or effortless battles. Why try to...
