I still have issues..I mean I know they aren't real, I'm not crazy, but I would rather not have the magic broken for the most part. While I do only look at the puppet with Kermit and the fraggles , with a character like Big Bird or the other full bodies like the gorgs I'd rather not see them as just things made of thingamabobs and detachable heads :stick_out_tongue: :sympathy:. It's not just an age thing IMHO
I mean, I don't want to be overly harsh about this and say "You must accept they aren't real!" That would be an extreme, lol. I just mean that for me, seeing how it all worked never ruined any magic. If anything it made more interested. :smile:

agreed. and think of all the kids they have on the show who see all the muppeteers--they still look like they see the muppets as real and they don't even notice the guy on the floor moving his mouth while the monster is talking.

I...guh...wah... :eek:

Thats...I dont know whats worse

the nightmareish looking things or the fact these "things" are supposed to be muppets. Puh-lese tell me that thing thats next to the Uncle Deadly looking thing is not meant to be Floyd!

Hes not that hard to draw. I;ve drawn him a buncch of times in different poses looking pretty much spot on (even though one has survived, with his GMC look)
