**** - Well they could forget the island and just put the company on Ebay ...... of course then they'd probably be ridiculed on Toughpigs 'Tales Of Ebay' but at least they'd win some candy ! :D

Hey Guys, I was speaking to a contact on the corporate side of McDonalds who told me that they have been overwhelmed with demand for the Muppets UK Happy Meals to the point where most restaurants are selling out of the toys. Apparently they've had to bring forward the release dates of some...

Hey Jamie, After his 'outing' on NBC i think we need to applaud Scooter for his kick butt party attitude. I hereby propose a flash menu which has penguin lapdancers at either side and then Scooter cagedancing in his lycra bootie shorts in the middle. They can all kinda jiggle provocatively...

I know 'Entertainment Rights' very well and they would be ok at a push - the only problem would be Henson persuading them that the Muppets aren't just for kids but the company does seem to be moving away from childrens properties and picking up some nostalgic ones but the problem is they...

sucks what ?

EMTV and all the people they owe money to gets it. The Henson's get nothing as they all sold their shares AFAIK close to the time when they dropped in price.

Yeah i was gonna post that too - with the new ALF show in development it's unlikely the Muppets could ever follow that .... and ALF can go much edgier than Muppets ever could (i guess thats his general concept) and that seems to be what the media and public want so a watered down version would...

Use the currency converter at www.xe.com and just convert pounds into dollars. I think £1 equals about $1.55 nowdays but you'd have to check that. You can bid with your regular ebay.com account.

*shudders* direct-to-video ??? Oh jeez, well i guess it'd be better than them going down with EMTV and controlled by some bank but i think Henson deserve more than being public eye candy for some nice family orientated start up production company - it doesn't state whether there is even chance...

Sheryl Crow has filmed a guest appearance on Sesame Street. Crow will be seen on the first episode of the show's new series in the US in April. She sang a parody version of Soak Up The Sun and was joined by characters Elmo, Zoe and Rosita. Crow is recording a number of TV appearances...

Thats a great idea !

Nah - it's too much too soon, i think if they had wanted to do this they would have downplayed the 25th anniversary of the Muppet Show. People are much more likely to identify with the Muppet Show in the 70's than Jim's very early work so it was IMO the best choice. I see them maybe doing a...

I agree - thats exactly how the media will see it although the public have shorter memories nowdays. They should have probably just done the simple thing for the Muppet Show anniversary and then gone all out for 50 years of the Muppets but i guess both they and EMTV needed the money and the...

I would suggest people take a look at Ebay UK at www.ebay.co.uk as they (individual ones) go pretty cheap there. It's no longer possible to walk into the restaurant and get the first two toys as they've all been sent back so full sets will be harder to collect just through the restaurants now.

In an effort to save your fanbase i'm giving you full immunity against all charges of Penguin gratuity - get those wooly hats, scarves and skating socks on bub ... the people want Penguins ! :D On the Marley and Marley situation, the reason i think it probably looks quite dark and moody is...

I think the Muppet toys are all countries within Europe so thats UK, Belgium, Spain, France etc etc.

*shudders* That'd be the Christmas i'd spend in therapy ..... probably with two Muppet Penguins and a confused chicken lover in the room next door !

The polls are now open for all U.S residents to vote 'Palisades Muppets' the 2002 'Toy Of The Year'. Just go to http://www.toy-tia.org/toty/choiceform.html - scroll down to the last box on the list and enter 'Palisades Muppet Show Action Figures' and fill in your contact information. If...

NBC promoted this to the hilt the week before - to all different age groups from the 'Today Show' to 'Craig Kilborn'. Maybe they put it in the wrong timeslot, maybe the commercials weren't as good or enticing as they could have been, heck maybe if all they wanted was numbers they should never...

Oh golly, oh geesh, it would be a travesty for there not to be ... the first thing that came into my mind on seeing Marley and Marley zipping about was Penguin Skating !
