I just watched the interview with Quentin and it was freakin funny! Quentin talked about getting lost with the muppets even though he knew there was a performer underneath the puppet. But his conversaion with Rowlf the dog was halarious. I think Bill was having fun that day.

I saw part of the interview you are speaking of, but I missed the beginning. Is that the part in which Rowlf appeared? I was really ticked because the show description said James Spader and some comedian but there was no mention of Quentin Tarantino. I watched part of the show and then flipped to another channel. It was only a freak accident that I happened to flip back and catch QT talking about the Muppets. What sort of twisted world do we live in where James Spader gets priority over Quentin Tarantino?

Wow! Rowlf made a TV appearance? That's interesting. We haven't really seen much of him other than in the Weezer video. I wish I would have seen Conan.

No, Quentin was talking about his "conversation" with Rowlf on the set of "Oz." Rowlf was not on "Conan."

It's cool to know that Tarantino is a Muppet fan.

You can get a clip of it here:

It's a wonderful interview about how they found it impossible not to treat the muppets as if they were real. Quentin said he had his photo taken with his favorite muppets (Sam the Eagel :attitude: , Rowlf :sympathy: , Janice :flirt: and the Swedish Chef) and I was wondering who would have played Rowlf and Janice for that especially since he actually talked to Rowlf which sounded wonderful and he kissed Janice on the lips.
