Yeah they gave up the space and laid off the majority of people, then moved into the main offices with a smaller staff. In my book thats more a relocation than a closure, um i guess. Although this is gonna sound real bad, i think they needed to get rid of some people and give up some...

Indeed, kudos on printing the articles and press releases .... my source for the year in review ! LOL! However, there's no sections profiling Hoobs, Moppatop or Construction Site although they are all on air and there's plenty of matierial available. In fact MC is missing profiles on ALL...

I thought Rizzo looked ok - the nose was maybe a bit thin, kinda mouse looking. I agree about it being a shame there's two sets rather than one complete one.

I just read what Jim said, and while IMO i think there is some accuracy, on the whole i think his 'inside info' is WAY off. For a start i don't believe negotiations with Disney were so far that the Henson and Disney press offices were discussing where to hold the press conference to announce...

Indeed, he posted the measurements on the Palisades forum and i think he mentioned that the Swine Trek would be even larger in some ways.

Yeah i booked Kermit for a show a few years ago - not that i got to see much of it. I don't do that kinda stuff anymore but i've advised other bookers on getting them too. I agree about the WWE/F - i worked on their UK tour in 1997 and it was just starting to get really lame then, i think it...

Having booked Muppets myself i can say that line doesn't wash - as a celebrity booker you have to please the producer and they hate repeat booking of guests...... unless it's a game show - they take anyone. I think even the Muppets need an angle, lets face it, they spent the whole of the last...

Guess not - the interest in the classic Muppets won't be as intense in the first quarter of this year due to the anniversary being over and most guest bookers probably getting sick to death of them by now. The Muppets Fox Show is the only thing officially on the horizon, we've not heard if...

The shutdown of the workshop wasn't mentioned because it didn't happen, they just laid off some staff and moved premises. Internal changes happen all the time, just the difference was you got to hear about this one. The Muppet Central relaunch should have been mentioned and has been added to...

How bout a Muppet Nudist Colony ? Oh look over there, it's Janice parting company with her g-string ! :eek:

Aside from Kermit and the Chef, they are all completely different from the UK ones - the quality isn't so great.

Yeah, the link is :- http://www.amazon.ca/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00006IGVL/702-3545321-5425634 It's Canadian prices, remember, and it works out very cheap - especially as the discs very high quality with extras and things. It was actually outselling LOTR and ET at Amazon Canada when it was...

I kinda agree with the Frogboy on the variations thing - i much prefer Red Floyd to Blue Floyd, Kermit to Tux Kermit, Fozzie to Vacation Fozzie, Beaker to the Variants - the only exclusive i like more than the originals is the Exclusive Piggy but thats just because the regular one looked so...

Re: Red Vacation Fozzie Yup, you need to contact Wizard World. Basic rule of any faulty or unsatisfactory product from any company is to return the item from the place you bought it for an exchange, or if they don't have the item or you don't want it - a refund. If that fails then you can...

Just wanted to add a lil' puppetry news tidbit that might be interesting for fans of the original ALF series or cartoons. On the commentary of the latest ALF DVD the creators - Paul Fusco and Tom Patchett (co-writer of two Muppet movies) announce that alongside the new ALF Talk Show, there'll...

Yeah it's a bit lengthy but it's kinda like if we had a Muppet time capsule, if there isn't some round up to look back on the future then all the less major stuff thats happened just gets lost - well unless you were to do a major trawl through this forums archives but then they might not always...

Good point Jamie - yeah i was forgetting the scale of the accessories as Rizzo will be small. I don't mind eitherway if it extends or not, i thought it was a shame that it didn't just because they were making it in the first place but yeah, when you consider sizes it'd be harder. I'll be...

It's the 50 minute TMS compilation that was released on video a while back as 'Best Of The Muppet Show Volume 2', 2 TMS episodes (can't remember which ones) and two Muppet Classic Theater fairy tales.

Nope it was a mistake - lol ! Thanks for that - i put it all together very fast.

I'm yet to see a Muffin related press release ! :D Good addition BTW - I'll add the Fraggle DVD stuff. Yeah a forum year in review would have been hilarious. Looking through their were some posts that made me laugh my butt off.
