If no one's been following this, the Muppets have been slowly making a comeback on Youtube. Their latest video is Stand By Me and it is hilarious, take a look!

Very cool. Unfortunately I wasn't born yet when the original show aired, but I was around for the second iteration from the 90's. Jim Henson is my idol, I've always loved his work and I own all of his books and movies. Just epic storytelling.

I'm glad The Muppets are making a comeback and people are loving it.

Muppets rocked, especially Animal - he was always my favorite, but I also liked the miserable old gits in the Gallery too.

Buddy Rich is one helluva drummer, in fact watch that video Kevin posted, even if you hate everything - Animal's dropped jaw is priceless. You should listen/watch to him chew out his band as well, that's how everyone should talk to musicians . I just drum on Rock Band, but sometimes it is like the poor drummer, is the only one doing any real work! - I can play the guitar all night, but on the drums, 5 songs and I need a break.

I loved the short Statler & Waldorf: Meh video. "The internet is full of sarcastic comments and nasty resopnses. Looks like we've finally found a home!"

Check out this WIP flash game from the Global Game Jam!
