Kimmel Editorial: A Note from Steve Whitmire

[Amazing Mumford]

My best guess about sweeps starting on Thursdays is because that was the timeslot for Seinfeld and now Friends (I think...I havn't seen Friends in years).

Well, many other classic shows had Thursday time slots before Seinfeld and Friends. Cheers and The Cosby Show are two that come to mind.

I think Frank Oz speaks on The Muppets Celebrate Jim Henson. He introduces one of the segments and talks about his friendship with Jim.

This is strange. I've been listening to this commentary for a bit now and I SWEAR I've heard Frank somewhere else before. Don't you hate it when you can't pinpoint a voice? Gaaah...

I think he played a bunch of those Muffin characters, or something...

I know THAT, but I swear I've heard him commentating something else too.

I were only foolin' I couldn't tell if you were joking in your post...

Seriously, though, maybe you've listened to commentary on another of his movies? Or maybe you've seen him in interviews without realizing it? I remember how surprised I was when his voice popped out at me in the middle of seeing Monsters Inc. for the first time. Perhaps Mr. Oz is just everywhere!!

 

[jediX]

Neat, I had no idea he was in Monsters...I'll check that out when I find time.

Hearing his commentary to Bowfinger was sort of like listening to a voice I'd known all my life although I'd never really heard him talk normally until then.

I got that years ago at Wal Mart for like 6 bucks, but I've yet to actually watch it.

 

[sarah_yzma]

yeah dad's friend got him that DVD a couple years ago, and we watched it once...and now, it's starting a dust collection any person could be proud of

 

[jediX]

Is the movie any good?

 

[sarah_yzma]

it's interesting....I didn't care for it, much, but it had a few good lines in it
