"We'll not risk another frontal assault. That rabbit is dynamite."
Crazy Harry: "Did someone say dynamite?"

And for the record (but I think you knew this already), the Richard who made the Holy Hand Grenade remark in my last post was Hunt.

Hunt? Hunt for what? Oh, you must mean "hunt" for what little sanity's left after Crazy Harry blew you away.
Crazy Harry: Did someone say "blow you away"?

*Gives Ed another hug back and goes back to sleep in her soft bed snuggling her Scooter plushie.*

Nearly got squished by some over-the-desk steel cabinet yesterday at Mom's school. It slammed into my shoulders, and my cheek and nose. I think it weighed over 100 lbs. But I'm okay, just a little sore.

*snores away in her bed*

Lol, so I take the discussion, twister board thingie somehow got switched to "Muppets Do Python? :crazy:

Again, for anyone who didn't get the FR First Season DVD, someone posted some of the Extras!

Casting:

(Dave talks about Richard towards the end, I was so excited to hear that! You can also see Richard a little bit at the beginning during the "auditions." He's the one under the hat, later talking to Steve, and then watching Karen's audition.

Finding a Voice:

(Richard's not mentioned here, but there's a lot of Jerry, Steve, Dave and Karen :smile:.)

Thanks heralde. Nice, especially since I still haven't watched my FR Season 1 set. Sure hope there are some extras featuring more of Kathy Mullin as herself and/or Mokey in the Season 3 set though.

Yeah I know, I would definitely like to hear from Kathy, she seemed very interesting in all the interviews I've seen in other places. Well, at least she's been absent for an admirable reason. :smile:

I've seen those before - it is really weird to hear the Fraggles speaking with different voices. I really liked hearing Dave talk about Philo and Gunge's origins - and how Richard came up with the rats' trademark "Nyeh!"

Yeah I know! Though I actually liked Steve's attempt with Gobo, the voice was very appropriate for the character. Jerry doing Wembley sounded a bit too old, but still good.

I remember when I first got the DVD, I watched the Extras before anything else. I was a little worried that Richard wouldn't get mentioned much. But "Finding a Voice" was the first segment I watched, so I was very happy to be proven wrong! And I liked Steve and Karen's expressions when Dave revealed the "Nyah!" origins. :wink:

I also really enjoyed listening to Karen, like when she said how nervous she was in the first couple of episodes because she didn't have a hold on the character yet. That amazed me because I honestly thought she was great from day one. Steve had a similar experience with Sprocket. Then again, we are our own worst critic. :smile: (Also notice that Richard laughed at Karen's line during the audition? She must have loved that, hehe.)

I hope Richard's mentioned in the 3rd Season DVD. But if not, at least the "Mean Genie" and "Bored Stiff" episodes will be included, I really want to see those. :smile:

Hey there guys. In the same spirit of Kathy making one of those "You think you know me!" quizzes I made one for myself too!

Renee's Quiz

It'd be neat to see how you guys do on it.
