John Henson Project on Spike?

If there was a :| face for "neutral" I'd choose it. Looks handy from a guy-advice standpoint but I question the usefulness of the tricks shown to date. :)

My take is its Spike TV's version of Comedy Central's The Man Show and doesn't look like a good version.

I loved John Henson when he was on Talk Soup, now Talk Soup is a complete joke.

Wasn't Talk Soup canceled some time ago, after Aisha Tyler took it down in flames?

I don't think Ms. Tyler took the show down. It was a one-trick pony that was long in the tooth by the time the smarmy Greg Kinnear left.

The promos alone make it clear the new Henson show is aimed at morons, like most alleged comedy. "Now that's good finger!" I mean, who thinks that's funny? The lameness of those spots, which run incessantly, make me want to vomit with rage.

Thank God I can zap through stuff when at home. Watching TV anywhere else leaves you helpless though.

I misread the original title as "Jim Henson Project on Spike". Thank goodness that didn't happen...

I dunno - some of the original Muppet stuff wasn't fit for children, as I recall...

Didn't Jim Henson create some other short story series at one point as well? I thought I remember seeing it some time back.

The Storyteller?

Yes, the Storyteller. An excellent series. The UMF recommends the DVD collection.

D*mn the UMF!! I didn't know these were available... I remember them fondly as a component of the Jim Henson Muppet Hour (1989?).

Hmmm, that sounds like it might be it. I didn't know it was on DVD. I'll have to look it up.

LOL - me too. That's why I kept ignoring this thread. I kept thinking "Why?"
