Smart. Sexy. Fun.
You know, I was already really excited about the news that Jason Segel was working on a new Muppet movie. But could he also be plotting a new version of The Muppet Show? According to a report from the UK, the answer is yes. Segel's movie script apparently "involves all the Muppets uniting to save their studio with one last variety show," and it leaves open the possibility of continuing in TV form Read more
All of the new DVD releases hit stores (and Netflix) on Tuesdays. So each week in What to Netflix: New DVD Tuesday, I sort through the best of the batch and tell you what to add to your queue. Pickings were a bit slim, I have to say. But hey, it's nice outside. We should all get some fresh air anyway this week, right? National Treasure: Book of Secrets Just as the big action-adventure Read more
It's been lingering in the back of my mind for a long time now. Could we just replace each of the Seinfeld characters with muppets? I know. I know. You're thinking the show would lose its mundane charm if we turn Jerry, Elaine, and George into puppets. (Kramer is another story.) The muppets are all novelty; they couldn't pull off "nothingness" if they tried. Well, not so fast! Here's a little Read more
This only affirms my suspicion that Beaker was the unsung badass on The Muppet Show. Those looks, that voice, and a jokester to boot! Beaker is everything I want in a man — puppet and all — w00t! w00t! (I kid, I kid.) A gag can't officially wear out its welcome until the non-blinking, neurotic muppet sings, so here's my guy, ready to rick 'n roll . . . Read more
You may know "Feelings" to be a slow, sappy, painful song, but it's something else on The Muppet Show. Our bug-eyed buddy, Beaker, tweaked the lyrics and added some of his personal flair to the song. In doing so, he made it ten times more tolerable and gave the ballad a bit more substance. Prepare to be wowed. Read more
Doug Henning may look goofy to us jaded folk today (yes, he's wearing pink satin overalls, has buck teeth and a weird 70's porno 'stache) but this is a sweet clip of him performing his seashells trick on "The Muppet Show." I'm told that's the stage manager he's with, but I'm not sure. (David Blaine, eat your heart out!) Read more
I never thought I'd say this, but I kind of miss Jake and Vienna. The Bachelor vets brought lots of crazy to the franchise and gave viewers a reason to tune in. The only contestant from this season of The Bachelorette who could possibly make the cut for Bachelor Pad, the offshoot that is more blatant about capitalizing on unstable cast members, would be Kalon. He's this season's villain, who made Read more
Week two on The Bachelorette brought plenty of action, and I'm not just talking about the chemistry between Emily and Kermit — though that was slightly uncomfortable. No, I'm referring to the first one-on-one dates, the first group date, and all the poolside drama. It looks like we've got a veritable Real Housewives of Charlotte on our hands, only in this case the housewives are men and Botox Read more
