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.
How come there are so few female muppets?
I guess the obvious answer is that most of the Muppeteers are male, but even so... All I could think of were:
Piggy
Annie Sue
Hilda
Janice
Camilla
but surely there must be more.

My wants would be Piggy as Wonderpig and maybe some of the alternative reality Muppets from Merry Xmas TV movie:
;) Club Scooter with cage to dance in
:confused: :eek: Bunsen and Beaker as bouncers
and how could I forget - the complete Electric Mayhem Riverdance set ;-)
And if there's...
Don't you mean "widescreen"? ;-)
Ooops :o - yes I do!
So why is MCC in fullscreen when MTI isn't - that doesn't make sense? Also from what I remember the print seemed a bit muddy and dark. I'm hoping it'll get shown on TV again this year in all its glory :)

Widescreen VS Pan and Scan
In USA are people actually able to get widescreen TVs yet or have they not caught on? Last time I was there I don't remember seeing any. UK is much, much bigger on widescreen TVs, so no black bars. Well I do get black bars when I watch "fullscreen" DVDs!!!

Disney Stores tend to be found in the larger towns across the UK. London has one, so if you visit there you should be OK! Also if you do go to London, Hamleys is worth checking out as they usually have muppet plushes in stock. Sometimes they have the "older" stuff like the sporting Kermits...
London
Forbidden Planet (www.forbiddenplanet.com) is your best bet (you can also order online from them should you wish). Also there's a comic shop along the Charing Cross Road (near VinMagCo shop) that's currently selling them. Expect to pay in the region of £10.99 to £12.99 per figure...
I went into the Disney Store yesterday (Guilford) to find that they are now stocking a range of Muppety goodness. They've had T-shirts for a while now (although all seem to be skinny fit size!) but now they've got plushes. My favorite item was an Animal :halo: cushion (£10) plus a range of...
Well... kind of!
In the UK the third series of the bizzare Bo Selecta is underway, this time with couple of Muppet spoofs. The main one is that 2 guys are dressed up like S and W making occasional comments on the show, but much, much, much dirtier than the Muppets!!
The second is a...
They are molded on with the current Muppets logo on the back. They're not painted or glazed. If you get all four, it should come to just under £20.

I think I've found possibly the oddest Muppet merchandise that I ever saw. In my local B&Q (big garden centre in UK!) there was a selection of 4 different Muppet terracotta plant pots. The biggest one was Kermit, about a foot high, then Piggy, Animal and Fozzie (a tiny little pot).
Now I...

Well my friend told me that as a wee young thing, he did a puppet show with Miss Piggy to the Evita LP. And of course she's make a great Eva :)
I've always loved Jesus Christ Superstar, but I don't think the world could handle Kermit in the main role somehow!

:) :excited:
Muppet Party Cruise is out on Playstation 2 in the UK at last, am very, very excited! Only £19.99 from Game (plug, plug). I'm an ardent fan of Muppet Racemania (no other Muppet game comes close!) but am hoping this will take an easy second place to that.
