So they ARE doing more TV movies for sure is that a rumor? I keep hearing about the 2 theatrical films (Haunted House, Time Travel) and possibly another NBC movie, but I don't know which is true.
Yes, we NEED the TV show. Recently, I've just craved a new weekly Muppet show. After watching the Odyssey Muppetisms on the 'net and watching the NBC movie, I just want to see the characters do something new and funny week after week. I want to know what they're up to and how they have changed and see the new gang (Pepe, Fiamma, etc) increase in popularity and the older guys to be in the spotlight as well. I don't even care if the show's short-lived (OK I do care). I don't even care if it's on basic cable, just give us something. Heck, make more Muppetisms, those were some of the best things Henson has done since Jim died IMO.
I just need more stuff to watch. The 1st, 2nd, or 3rd thing I want the Hensons to do is sign some deal with Nickelodeon, Disney, or whoever and get the series and specials from the Henson library and put them on TV. I ain't going to the Museum of TV & Radio in New York anytime soon.
Huhhh, it's not easy bein' a hardcore Muppet fan.
