I thought Puzzle Place was a pretty good show, actually! And Between the Lions is awesome cuz of the whole phonics angle. Mind you, it's a little like Reading Rainbow...hey kids! Sit in front of the Boob Tube and let us tell you how awesome reading is! No ,no, don't get up...we'll read the book for you! Haha! :wink:

Lazytown is um...interesting if you want to see some 'puppets'. :confused:

I can't think of any others with puppets (maybe cuz it's 1 in the morning here)..everything seems to be computer animated lately.

Between the Lions is on the idea of Sesame Street.

I may be wrong, but I'm almost sure that Puzzle Place was the kids show that the Henson people took legal action against for their puppets looking too "Muppety." Just thought you'd be interested.

I used to LOVE the Puzzle Place when it was on! Whatever happened to it? Some great Muppeteers were on that show, including Noel MacNeal and Carmen Osbahr.
