I just saw that the Peanuts property is up for sale. http://www.cbr.com/report-peanuts-charles-schulz-snoopy-for-sale/

If this documentary was made (or at least started upon) back when Jerry Nelson was alive, then I'm very surprised that we hadn't known about its development sooner. Especially if it's premiering next month. Maybe if it was just a regular television documentary, but it seems like this is going to...

The headline for the article mentioned five films to watch for. If the headline mentioned the Muppet documentary then I might have paid more attention to that.

Here's a great new article that was posted today: https://muppetmindset.wordpress.com/2017/02/02/three-men-and-some-custom-toys/

I didn't realize that the picture was from this documentary. The initial report involved multiple upcoming films, after all.

I wonder which five it'll be, besides Frank Oz. I could see Dave Goelz and Steve Whitmire being involved. Maybe also Louise Gold and Kathryn Mullen. But I don't think it says they are all Muppet performers. It would be a surprise if John Lovelady was among them. I also wonder if this might be...

I finally got a copy of the movie recently and have watched it. And it is a great documentary. That conflict stuff with Jon Stone is interesting. It's something I've thought about for years. It seems like there's hardly anybody involved with the show that he had issues with, the only other...

Sometimes, a journalist or critic might "recant" opinions expressed in a past article, which means they take it back. But is "recanting" really good enough, especially if the public is aware of the original opinions? The original article might be a lot better known than the recant, after all.

Reunited:

Reunited by Peach and Herb. I was searching for the "what song can you not get out of your head?" thread while listening to this, found this thread, and figured, well, I AM listening to it as well...

I remember a long time ago on Muppet Wiki, the topic of which version of the Sesame Street 25th anniversary special came first - the home video version or the PBS version - we were talking about the fact that the video had a 1993 date though some pointed out that some videos are known to have...

Last week the Mindset posted its annual article asking for contributors. I decided to use that opportunity to ask in a Facebook comment that I had sent a lot of articles last year that have not been put on the website. Instead of an answer (whether it's a reply that the Mindset didn't get my...

Okay, so just recently, I learned that George W. Bush won a Razzie Award for "worst actor" (or was it "worst supporting actor"?) for the movie Fahrenheit 9/11, but does he really qualify as an actor for that? As far as I know, all of the George W. Bush footage in that was taken from news...

Just after I posted this list, I thought that I should have included John Hurt, it would have been cool to see him interviewed by the Mindset or Tough Pigs, and then that night it was announced that he passed away.

Top ten things about Dumb and Dumber that I either musunderstood or was confused about when I first saw it. Some of it I think I understood after a few viewings, while others took years for me to fully understand (some not until a few years ago). 10. Why Harry wouldn't stop the car when Lloyd...

Recently I watched an episode of The Mary Tyler Moore Show that I had not seen in years, "Farmer Ted and the News", and I'm trying to understand why the station, especially Lou Grant, has a problem with Ted starring in local commercials. I know that Ted wants his contract changed so he could do...

Top ten people I most want to see interviewed by The Muppet Mindset: 10. Allison Bartlett 9. David Borgenect (Sesame Street Unpaved author) 8. Caroll Spinney 7. Jason Segel 6. Brian Meehl 5. Kenneth Lily (Palisades Toys developer) 4. Christopher Finch (author of three different non-fiction...

In memory of Mary Tyler Moore, here's top ten lists for her two biggest shows: Top ten episodes of The Mary Tyler Moore Show 10. Christmas and the Hard Luck Kid II 9. Look at Us, We're Walking 8. Love is All Around 7. Bess, I Am Your Daughter Now 6. The Last Show 5. Ted's Tax Return...

And also, how could I forget about Megavolt, Quackerjack, and Steelbeak from Darkwing Duck? Or Gaston from Beauty and the Beast? Or Scar from The Lion King?

In Back to the Future Part II, 2015 Biff figures out that Doc built a time machine. But wouldn't it be great if he'd figured out at that point that Marty and "Calvin Klein" are the same person, only in different points of time? Maybe he could have even told his young self to give "Calvin" an...
