The "tuff" Sesame Street is lame.  But I think the M.O.P. song video is great, because of how well it was edited and the footage they chose to use.  Ernie popping up from behind that chair? 


But I digress, and will go back to a great REAL  Muppet Show clip.  Best Muppet Show song ever.  Shel  Silverstein cover too..

i found a much better recording of it a year or so ago, but this is the best that i can find now.

The Muppet thread just wouldn't be a Muppet thread without this.

It is, not to be too repetitive, a show for children.

Does that mean there's heavy metal on it now?

Jokes like that make me roll my eyes. Take something innocent and make it sketchy....ooooh! Look! Kermit smokes weed! Calvin pees on Osama Bin Laden! Hahahahaha!!!!

This is exactly why I hated every second of that musical Avenue Q.  Whoa, there might be a gay subtext on between Bert & Ernie?  There's porn on the internet?  Gary Coleman is no longer famous?  Who the fuck knew?

The live puppetry was actually pretty impressive though.
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

Jim Henson Co. Ponders Mature Puppet Fare In ‘The Happytime Murders’

http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2008/10/15/jim-henson-co-ponders-mature-muppet-fare-in-the-happytime-murders/

Quote
Written by Todd Berger and Dee Austin Robertson, “Happytime” takes place in a world where humans and puppets co-exist. But in this world, being made of felt and possessing a set of googly-eyes makes you a second-class citizen. Things turn ugly when, one by one, the puppet cast of television’s “The Happytime Gang” begin turning up dead. It falls to a disgraced LAPD detective-turned-private-eye puppet to take on the case — and yes, in noir fashion, he has personal demons and a drinking problem to overcome.

So it's pretty much going to be Roger Rabbit but with puppets?

i'm a humongous jim henson supporting jerk and not liking him is stupid and i'll punch you face.

also if there's any portland people the nw film institute is going to be playing movies and oddities on the big screen starting in may. including commercials, emmet otter, muppet movie, dark crystal, and the great muppet caper.

also i recently found a vhs rip of Dreamchild up on demonoid and cinemageddon which i strongly recommend. also for you netflix peeps i super strongly urgently demand you see The Storyteller dvd if you havnt already. not the greek myths thing which was made after the tragic loss.
