Jerry Juhl, thank you you for the magic, the scred or serious, the silliness, and say hi, Mr. Nelson, Don Shlin, Jim Henson, and Jane for us. We miss you, but you cannot leave the magic.

Now we close off with a song.

Hey Colette! I heard this was the day to do something silly, so here's what I got: Juhl joining in the screenplay writing for TMS's 2nd season definitely turned it around with the importance of characters, including A REAL COW!!!:concern::smile::wink::hungry:


Was it Jerry Juhl who came up with the idea of Gonzo's fascinations for chickens?? He and Dave certainly continued on that here!:cluck:

Okay! I'll admit that there were some silly moments from Fraggle Rock here and there, but thank you for posting the Muppet Show clip. He did started from the Jimmy Dean Show to the Muppet Show and I forgot all about that. I mean he was the soul of the Muppets, Fraggles, otters, and other kinds of silly creatures that I can't even think of.

So Jerry Juhl Day is on September 26? It's not exactly something I think about much (so I guess I'm a bad Muppet fan). But by coincidence, since I didn't immediately remember, on Jerry Juhl Day I sent in a Weekly Muppet Wednesday article on his character Taminella to The Muppet Mindset. I had wanted to write a Taminella article last summer but then decided to hold off until closer to Halloween, and the article is online now. http://themuppetmindset.blogspot.com/2013/10/weekly-muppet-wednesdays-taminella.html
