David Was Fraggle recorded in Stereo then ? I know some prime time shows like ALF were at that point, but i didn't know about Fraggle. I can't seem them remastering the stuff as it is just gonna make things more costly but making the songs a special feature is a lovely idea. I'd love to...

No, it was just a jo schmo from the New York office taking some puppets to the Creature Shop for something or other. I've heard an extended version of the reports that circulated in the press and it seems genuine though of course Henson deny this ever happened (and that is NOT a white stain on...

Fozz You may have appointed the keepers of the hat but as CEO of the 'Karen Prell Canoodlers' club i must insist the hat is placed on a golden plinth at all times, aside from Muppetfests whereby it will be placed in a bag with the gratuitous penguin and be surrounded by security guards at all...

Yeah it's amazing that the Henson kids did that - i would think there is a big reason why that we all have no clue about, it wasn't very like them. I suppose money talks though and EMTV certainly made them an offer they found hard to refuse. I agree with Foz, we should all have jobs at...

I don't think Jim would have approved of the EMTV thing - they made all this crap up at the start about Haffa having a family business but i really don't think Jim would have wanted his company in German hands. The Muppets are kinda an American institution - i think if anyone it would have been...

Yup - i guess we know why she's got a big snout too ! ;-) ALF's no stranger to drugs though. I have outtakes where he is snorting powder off a desk ...... and i fully intend to send them to the national enquirer someday and make a mint. Smart huh ? Woccckkaaaaa !!!!!!

Jamie The Henson kids actually managed to get rid of their EMTV stock just before it really dropped massively. From what i've heard they made a big loss but narrowly avoided serious financial catastrophe. I don't think there is a member of the Henson family now with EMTV shares ! If the...

Dr Tooth I'm just glad ALF was a guest at all - it's nice the shows achievements were recognised - a lot of others didn't even get a mention. It takes a brave producer to put a puppet on live during a black tie event to celebrate a networks success - kinda like the lunatics running the asylum !

Fozz Um Kevin - this isn't gonna go down too well here but actually the rumors about using puppets to hide drugs on flights between the USA and UK was Miss Piggy, not ALF. The story was covered up quite well and the guys (not muppeteers) from Henson got off with a warning or something. It...

I'm not sure ANYBODY has the rights to distribute Fraggle on Video right now - i don't think the Columbia deal includes all Henson productions. All Henson international TV distribution is handled directly by EMTV's people in Germany now but that doesn't extend to Video/DVD.

Hi Yes, ALF is in the process of making a full time comeback - a deal for a spoof talk show was signed but fell apart because of cost cutting after the 9/11 attacks. Paul Fusco is getting other stations interested. I have an ALF forum at http://alf.proboards9.com where we talk about this...

It's very hard to say - i think the best bet is to go to one of the big auction houses in London or the States that specialise in Memorabilia and Collectables and get them to officially value it. An insurance company would probably go for that. Trouble is - i wouldn't have thought a serious...

Hey Warrick Yes, you spelled it right ........ that proves that you aren't the one faking the signatures ! If there's one thing i've learn't through all these petitions is that the majority of Muppet fans can't spell !

yeah Warrick - if you are gonna start faking the signatures i think it'd be best to pick people that are still alive - what next ? Walt Disney and John F Kennedy ?

Greg is on hiatus until May 20th as Fox have some specials coming up - it has not been cancelled. It is in danger of being cancelled though, after 3 weeks as well - if this happens it is not very good news for the new Muppets show. a) It will put Fox off Puppet shows, and b) the reason for...

David Nope - i'm not sure about how the Disney/Henson thing is going - i think they are probably playing the waiting game. Once EMTV goes down the pan they can swoop and pick the company up real cheap ! It seems we have found one topic where Disney owning Henson WOULD actually be an...

Jessie :- It's ok - sometimes we all misinterpret things - i just want this petition to be as focused and effective as possible so we get what we want in a way where we get taken seriously and it's all do-able. I certainly wasn't saying "Why bother" ! David :- I noticed a Disney mention...

Jessie You needed to read the post properly and ended up quoting me totally out of context. When i said "i really don't see it happening with Fraggle Rock" i was talking about full boxes of season by season DVD's - not the whole thing in general. Read back and have a look ! I don't see the...

Is it just me or did i come to the Muppet forum or Coke.com ?

Warrick The way they'll more than likely go is a compilation - basically because they are selections of the best episodes and because its standard Henson policy - however David has a nice idea. The petition needs more than 5,000 signatures ideally to submit if not a lot more - Henson already...
