Does anyone else like it? I can't say that I've seen all of their works (I've only seen a few muppets movies and The Labyrinth, and the Disney Channel program Bear in the Big Blue House when I was younger.) but I love how they put wit and personality into their characters. My sister and brother both  grew up watching Fraggle Rock and The Muppets show.

Well, I've never heard of the company, but I love the Muppet Show, as you are probably aware.

The Muppet Show had the crudeness that has been lost because of the fact Disney now owns the property.  The Muppet Show was meant for everyone, not just kids, so as such, the humor is made to cross many age levels.  The movies....outside of Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas, Muppet Treasure Island and Muppet Christmas Carol, I'm not very fond of them for some reason.  They seem to lack what the original Muppet Show had.

Oh yeah, and everyone still loathes Bean Bunny for some reason! :P

My mom says it's good that the Disney company now owns that and the Star Wars company, but personally I think that Disney should stay out of their way. They were doing just fine.

I don't think Disney has anything on Star Wars.  Lucas is pretty much in charge of that 100%.

I enjoy a lot of things done by the Jim Henson Company!

Any Fraggle fans out there?

For some reason I never cared for Fraggle Rock.  Still don't like it much.  Tried watching it again on Netflix and no spark, no nothing.

I still can't figure out what they are.. Frogs? And I haven't seen Fraggle Rock only my sister has.

I'm not what they are, except for Fraggles.  I think they're a species that we've never encountered before.

I'm currently watching the t.v show "Dinosaurs." It's a little odd, but I guess I need to watch more before I start to judge. I played a board game based off of the show, had no idea that it was a t.v show untill now.
