    Season 39 Character Questions

    Okay... here are the cahracters... There was an orange Monster live hand muppet with yellow horns a circular head, a small round green nose and bushy black eyebrows. (He sang the Laundromat song with Chris) The uppity Customer- Round Lavendar live hand AM, blue eyelids, small round red...

    New Muppets Christmas Special

    Considering how loud and crass it was, it's no surprise. Now, are these network ratings, or are some of them cable channels? Sometimes it does make a difference.

    What do you really want to see from the Classic Muppets?

    As long as we stay FAR FAR away from the Nipple joke from Oz, we should be fine. There's a fine line between humor of the disturbed, and things that are flat out disturbing.

    Bolt, from the S*N*O*W*T*H Rant Files

    Hey! If I were Dreamworks, I'd team up with Pixar and Disney to start a class action copyright lawsuit to shut these guys down. Other than near sighted grandparents who aren't up on current movies buying them for their 5 year old grandchildren, who would ever mistakenly buy those films?

    The Chipmunks' Triumphant Return

    It was extremely slow for me... if that's anything. I think they have some idiotic bug or code or something that could be the problem.

    The Chipmunks' Triumphant Return

    I was wrong.... Chipmunk Punk IS available on CD... but you have to buy it directly from the Website

    Weinstein rolls with Fraggle Rock movie

    I wouldn't expect any less with that passion of yours. Though, what people actually thought "live action puppetry" meant guys in rubber suits? Clearly no one will ever reserrect the failure known as the "thunderbirds" movie. So, Best of Luck (not that you need it, with your talent) on the...

    What do you really want to see from the Classic Muppets?

    I'd only want to see it if they can get all the same voice actors and writers and elements back. I do NOT want to see them ask where the yellow ball in the direct forground is for ten minutes....

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 39

    Ah... Hense why the Dominican woman in Scrubs calling Piggy a "puerca" in VMX. Thanks for clearing that up. High School Spanish only goes so far... Yeah, I think it may be on every other episode or something. I think it should alternate with Murray had a little Lamb... but we won't know...

    What do you really want to see from the Classic Muppets?

    Even most of the other "babyfication" shows had the classic aspects of the characters. Even in something terrible and ill advised like "Yo Yogi." I think what made Muppet Babies work is that it treated its audience as an audience, and not as a segregated educational demographic group. When...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 39

    That confused me too. I had a feeling that Pollo meant just the meat of the chicken as well. As in Arroz con Pollo... and then I figured it was a dialect thing, as many different Spanish dialects have different words the others don't use. Another thing that confused me was the word for pig...

    I Don't Get It, What's So Special About the Olympics?

    Escept we're still bombing the heck out of the Middle East and Russia and Georgia (no, not the one in the US) are fighting each other. I still think we should look out for China's role in all this. There's some eerie aspect that somehow brings to mind the 1936 Olympic Games in Hitler's...

    State of the Muppets - An Opinion

    Yeah, but what do you expect? Jim Henson and Richard Hunt have passed on, Jerry Nelson hasn't done anything TMS related since VMX (as he;s in some sort of semi-retirement), and Frank Oz is focusing on his film career. He seems to have moved on, and I DO NOT want to start that discussion up...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 39

    Ah the "fill in the Blank" channel... I think that is the best part of EW, myself. Not just the animation, but Andrea Martin's hillarious voice over work. So, no new Elmo Material today... I almost find it odd. Yesterday, we had a new EW, and Elmo was with Jack Black. I wanna say he was...

    The Videogame Thread

    Yo! Nothing wrong with Luigi. I mean, he was the heart of the Super Mario cartoons, especially the live action segments where he was played by Danny Wells. Personally, I tend to gravitate towards Luigi products more than Mario, if there's a choice. Usually, it's harder to find Luigi. Until...

    New Muppets Christmas Special

    I don't believe Santa is the problem at all. I think some of the fans find it juvenile on the part of the Muppets to write letters to Santa. I think that's the complaint people are talking about. That and a speculation based "Muppets Save Christmas" plot.

    "It's Hard Out Here For a Shrimp"

    A Pepe book. Now that's amazing. I hope this opens up some sort of window for more Pepe merchandise. Other than a Nanco plush, 2 Palisades figures, a push puppet based off the Palisaeds design, and a Jack in the Box promotional figure, you never see Pepe on anything... no matter how popular...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 39

    The unknown segment you're referring to is actually a stop motion cut out piece about clothes sepperating into piles based on different categories (the shoes go into one pile, then they go into the pile of matching colors... etc). I believe I saw it a year or so back. Anyway, Great episode...

    Season 39 Character Questions

    Okay... Firstly, Would you consider the Socks from "Exploring in the Closet" as muppet characters? It was the same version from the early 90's, and they look more like something from the prop department than true muppets. The Socks were basically purple socks with blue toes and googly eyes...
