Hi all! I have been a HUGE Muppet fan since forever!!! I'm so glad I stumbled on this website. I grew up loving Miss Piggy's no-nonsense attitude, so I think she might have to be my favorite Muppet. But I love anything that has to do with Jim Henson's creations, and puppets in general. I can remember being little and falling asleep to Sesame Street and Muppet Show records on my old record player! I wish I still had those records today... *sigh* Such good memories!

Can't wait to start chatting with you all! Talk to you soon!

Hi all other new members!

Theres nothing like sitting back after a long day at work/ school to watch the muppets.. even at age 29 i still enjoy the muppets.. i LOVE sesame street..

I am right with you there! I used to be able to watch Sesame Street at 4am after working all night and it was the deluxe way to relax. And at that time there were very sparse vintage scenes interspersed within. It kept me on my toes. The Pointer Sisters' Pinball machine is the coolest thing to see when you've been up all night!

Hello everyone!! Call me squishy I am new to this board, but nowhere near new to the muppets. I grew up with them. They have always been a part of my life and a major part of my childhood.

Though I was only two when Jim died, I vaguely remember when it happened. My dad was devastated (he's a bigger muppet freak than I am), and he really stepped up our muppet-viewing ever since. We watched the muppet movie VHS til it broke, Muppet Christmas Carol until it met the same fate, introduced the Fraggles to me via VHS when I was very small, and I had a baby Piggy doll til she, too, got loved to death. I went as Kermit for one halloween. You cannot begin to imagine just how happy my dad was when he found out that the Muppet show was coming to DVD. He had always referenced it, and taught us the Mahna mahna song long before I knew where it was from. I was introduced to it on christmas morning, and loved it immediately. Same went with Season one of Fraggle Rock, which we all got him for christmas. We had a mini-muppet marathon.

Dark Crystal and Labyrinth are two of my favorite movies of all time. I remember the first time I saw the Dark Crystal. I was totally blown away by how beautiful it was. The puppetry blew my mind to shreds. I was half convinced that the Gelflings were people in make-up, and not puppets. Labyrinth was first viewed at a friends house, and it was instant love. And HOGGLE!! I love Hoggle so bloody much.

David Bowie is a genius, but that's another story.

Anyway, I'm both out of my head with excitement and worried to death about both the possible sequal to Dark Crystal and the confirmed official Fraggle Rock movie. I don't think that I could live in a world where the Fraggles have a bad movie, and heads will roll if DC2 sucks. They really will. THAT'S how much the muppets, the Creature Workshop, and Jim Henson's dreams mean to me.

Thank you.

Hey! Nice to meet you. I guess you really love the Muppets to death.

Your dad sounds really cool! You sound like a serious fan and those are some of our favorite kind of people. I know you'll fit right in here. I hope you enjoy this site and have a lot of fun here.

Welcome!

 

[evilhopscotch]

My dad IS really cool!! Really, if he wasn't around, I probably wouldn't have ever known about the muppets. I don't think my mom likes them all that much. Ah well.

Thanks for the welcome!!

 

[Ilikemuppets]

Haha, that's pretty funny that your mom doesn't like then. I think if my mom did not know what they were she would be pretty freaked out by them.

I'm glad to he tought you about the muppets. I mean my parents mile tham and eveything, but I was just a fan, too, you know. They might have introduced me too them, though. By the way, it "squishy' a nick name? and may I ask why your called that?
