Can I say what a pleasure it was to see Kermit and Ringo Star in one of the Grammy videos?

My Bubble Jumble high score has been beaten! :frown:. I guess he deserves it though, since it's 250% higher than mine. I have no idea how that is possible.

I went to the studio today and watched them tape a bunch of new elevator sketches. I don't know when they will be up on the site.

But during the shoot, they wanted to look at Topo Sticky online to make sure they were matching the way he looked before and the page was so slow in loading that even they gave up!

AWWWW! Topo Sticky + Pepe = awesome!
That's been one of my favorites so far!
Can you say anything about characters we haven't seen in awhile being used? or is it just the same couple of Muppets over and over?
It's sad when the people working on the thing can't even view the page lol they really need to squish those internet bugs!

I haven't seen all of the ones they've done so far, so I don't know who's been in them... but there were a lot of characters today:

Kermit, Fozzie, Piggy, Gonzo, Rizzo, Pepe, Bunsen and Beaker, Swedish Chef and two generic rats. There was also a penguin laying on the puppet table, but I didn't see him used. I probably left before they got to him.

Aw *whew* I had thought they had just filmed a bunch of sketches last fall, good to hear they are continually making new ones.

Heh, I was just in the Burbank area the other day...awesome to hear some mighty Muppet magic going on in Burbank(and with Disney project managers with the movie news)

Isnt it amazing how top notch the chemistry is, even in 2008?
Im so thankful the core Muppeteers arent going anywhere, and that Jim Lewis is back to writing for em'
