PINTELE update: Here's the trailer!

I hope you enjoy these excerpts, along with something the series doesn't have: visuals.

The PINTELE page on my site has been refreshed and updated too. Now all I have to do is finish the series.

Today isn’t only the day we release our last Muppet Show episode; it’s also the birthday of The Muppet Show’s first guest star, Juliet Prowse. Here’s our 2021 podcast about her time with The Muppets. www.muppeturgy.com/episodes/jul...

We tried to game the system (we tried to light the lights?). We over-thought everything and recorded a bunch of episodes, guessing at which order Disney+ might choose to post The Muppet Show in. And...

Jim Henson would've been 89 years old today. Commemorate his life and legacy by celebrating creativity, diversity, imagination, peace, and just plain silliness.

Walk with me a bit while I talk about Jim and his work--and leave your comments about what he means to you.

Right this way. /1

This is one of my very favorite images, as it features characters performed by Jim Henson throughout his life holding photos (or, in the case of Ernie, drawings) of him at about the period he was performing the character. Among the Muppets shown: Cantus, Dr. Teeth, the Swedish Chef, Sam, Link Hogthrob, Ernie, Kermit (two iterations), and Guy Smiley.

I hate it when someone will post a fun little conversation starter like "what's your favorite ice cream flavor?"

And someone has to respond with like "oh this small batch toasted basil and amaretto date gelato with a bourbon infused balsamic swirl at Avvone Glace in LA"

Just say "cookie dough"
