SS special on PBS (Oct. 24th, 9:00-10:30 PM)

[TheJimHensonHour]

wow seriously...such mixed emotions over this thing...I love what Sesame workshop and Jim have done for the world even more after watching this.
But some times I guess I tend to forget what an evil place this world is and how much I really can have such hate for anything outside of my own little world.
The things I saw on this made me very very sad...those people working so hard to get the show done when they finally got it on the air I started to cry it was just so beautiful.
This world is sooo sooooo sooooooooooo very dark and full of hate but it's nice to see some people makign a differnce in it.
One thing I would have done at the end of the credits though would be to thank Jim Henson for his vision.
I got a bit choked up when they said his name to..when the lady said Jim would have loved that I totally agreed he would have shame he's no longer around to agree.
You know I never really thought of it before but you know if he was still here on earth with us I bet you anything he'd be a member of Muppet Central and talking to us all.
All and all wonderfull program saw sooo many things I would never have seen other wise.

Thanks Bry... But they just went to another local news show after the Nova special. Oh well, it's on to the wishlist and hope to get it then.

It said 12:30Am, October 26th. So that means it's on tonight when it becomes 12:30am. That is always very confusing...lol

Found PBS and I can sympathize with you Count. Of all the nights to show a local drag race on the station....argh! I was so upset last night missing it. Although the Cardinals winning the game last night helped a little.

 

[The Count]

Sheesh... Well, you root for them redbirds and all I can hope for is the big cats get their bats woken up to make it a series.

 

[christyb]

Give us cards a few more nights like last night I say. Ya might wanna talk to Zumaya (sp?) there. Oh yeah and thank him for those two runs for me.

 

[The Count]

Maybe we should just get the Gambler to pitch every game for us... Ain't afraid to get his hand dirty and he keeps pitchin' 8-inning shutouts.
So put that in your pipe and smoke it.

 

[christyb]

Would but my pipe is at the cleaners. We shall see who overcomes. Seeing as the Cards have a habit of winning every other game the odds are with us.

 

[The Count]

And the evens are with us, not to mention the added muscle of our backup fans should things get out of control.

*Crazy...
OK, leaving post now... Nothing more to say until I get the DVD release of the special and watch it for meself.

I almost missed it. I got off work just in time to catch it. But I couldn't call home because something was wrong with the phone. so I ran home only for it not to come on. But it ended up coming on later that night.
