Once again, another rare gem has emerged from the shadows and into the internet. God bless Youtube.

Pretty much the creepiest thing I've ever seen Henson do. Absolutely wonderful, brilliant, artistic, all stuff you'd come to expect from Jim... just pretty much creepier than the machine that Green Fanged Proto-Cookie ate. But a brilliant message nonetheless.

Here's another meeting film that Jim made with another Robot Muppet. This one is from 1968.

LOL Wonderfully Hilarious. Thanks For Sharing! LOL

The Robot Satire kind of reminds me of Futurama a little bit, except in this case Bender would probably find this to be robotist (racist for robots) LOL

Even goes to show even in today's technical advanced internet based world that machines can never replace human sociology.
