Sam and Friends Book Read our review of the long-awaited book, "Sam and Friends - The Story of Jim Henson's First Television Show" by Muppet Historian Craig Shemin.
Okay--I'm officially going to send Jason Segel's Mom a thank-you card. Do you think Disney would forward it to her?
BTW--I spent last evening watching The Muppet Movie with my daughter, who had never seen the entire thing, uninterrupted, start-to-finish. We laughed at all the good parts--that is to say--throughout....
I really hope I get to meet Jason Segel sometime in this life so I can thank him for everything he's done for the Muppets. What a kind person with such a heart.
He said something important: we really needed the Muppets back in our lives, now the new generation can fall in love with them. Really awesome guy.
I really hope Disney keep the Muppets franchise alive this time.
He said it ALL!! Now I don't feel so bad playing with puppets!! LOL! My wife thinks I am crazy half the time...and she's like you are doing what??!! I get really weird with mine...Wish I could meet Jason Segel and give him a big high-five!
I had read for years about how much of a Muppet fan Jason was but it was great to actually hear from him about his admiration and be able to express why the Muppets are so important to all of us and pop culture in general.

That's great, good for you! I mean it will be great if this new movie introduces kids to the Muppets, but ideally I hope it could also lead to more exposure of the original movies.
I should probably tell you that I've already indoctrinated the little bunchkins into the Christmas movies--all of them. They know chapter and verse of MCC, IAVMMC and MFC because I haul them out EVERY YEAR and make them watch with me (or at least near me--LOL!) And they know all the songs on the Green Album. And we all enjoy the insanity of Muppet Fairy Tale Theater.
(And once in a while, they will read an eensy little bit from one of my fics, but not very often. I insist that they know Jim's stories--I don't insist they know mine.)
We're getting ready to pop in The Muppets Take Manhattan! I just adore weddings!
