Not as funny as other videos, but very clever. Everything that represents America-and the song-is given to us by another country.

So, has there been any word on the 4th season of Muppet Show? Dying for the Star Wars episode... And how about more Muppet Photo Replicas? I have Gonzo, and I'm dying to get Kermit and Animal, but what of the ones that have already been designed (Rizzo, Piggy, and I forget who else).

I dont like the new hands the Muppets have ! They look too real and kinda scary ! I like the old puppet material ones. Sorry if theyve been like that for a while, but I havnt seen a Muppet movie for quite a while :)

Does anybody know when "Studio DC almost live" will be released? There was a preview on the "Ponyo" DVD.
The R2 countries already have their DVDs.

Sorry, I didnt look at all the videos, just presumed they must all be like that. They just look weird to me; I'm glad it might just be Chefs' who look like it.

The Swedish Chef's hands have always been "live", considering the extremely human-like look of that character. The Chef is pretty much the only major Muppet character to hold that distinction.

On The Muppet Show, Jim Henson would perform the Chef's voice and head, with Frank Oz assissting by doing the hands.

Most other Muppet characters' hands are puppet hands, regardless.

Probably either around the time of the new movie or never. How many of the featured Disney Channel stars are already irrelevant to Disney today?
"Fifteen years from now, when people are talking about 3-D, they will talk about the business before 'Monsters vs. Aliens' and the business after 'Monsters vs. Aliens.' It's the line in the sand." - Greg Foster, IMAX chairman and president

Does anyone know if the Muppet acquisition included FRAGGLE ROCK? I just watched it on THE HUB (formerly Discovery Kids).
Disney Channel died when they stopped airing movies with Haley mills (Parent Trap and Pollyanna) and fun adventure movies like Swiss Family Robinson. R.I.P. the REAL Disney Channel. Date of Death: When the shows became teenie bopperish.

Does anybody know if Disney holds the rights for the TV specials of "Hey Cinderella!" and "The Frog Prince"?
