Mailing List: August Updates

[Phillip]

The following e-mail was sent earlier today from our mailing list. If you're not on Muppet Central's Mailing List, you can sign up at this link. www.muppetcentral.com/help/list/

Dear Friends,

Have you heard about the Ed Sullivan Muppets DVD? It will be released next week, and we have a preview of all the classic sketches on this anticipated title. John Denver's "Rocky Mountain Holiday", and "The Storyteller: The Complete Collection" also debut on DVD tomorrow. Find out all the info on these releases at www.muppetcentral.com.

In "You Cannot Leave the Magic", Byron Summers takes a look back on Fraggle Rock and what the groundbreaking show can mean for future generations. In "Munich Memories and Beyond", Luke Robbins evaluates the Henson-EM.TV era: what was done right, what went wrong, and what the future may hold for Henson. The Henson family officially regained control of the company on August 1st.

Below are the other recent Henson happenings. We hope to see you on-line soon.

Take care,
Phillip Chapman
