    When I was a little kid, my favorite Sesame Street character was "Sam the Robot". He was on the show in the early 70's. You never see him anywhere in any of the museums or the nostalgia stuff and it makes me sad because he was my favorite and I miss him. I remember loving that character when I was little and then he was suddenly gone and it seems like he's been erased from history because no one even seems to know he existed or cares to preserve his memory in favor of preserving Elmo or Grover or Bert and Ernie etc..

    When I saw Big Bird I wanted to cry. I adore puppets. I'm a junior puppeteer myself, even though I don't have many opportunities. I absolutely adore Jim Henson's work and Big Bird has always been my favorite.

    Holy cow, I think I would actually cry if I went there. Jim Henson was pretty much my entire childhood. I grew up on The Muppets and Sesame Street. And I adore The Dark Crystal! Gotta say, Aughra looks a lot creepier without her eye. It's a shame they don't have a skeksis puppet, those are my favorites.

    I'm sure someone has already commented this, but Dog City was an amazing show and I remember watching it a lot as a kid! It had a weird time slot so I don't think a lot of people actually watched it. It was half puppets and half cartoon! Although I don't really remember much about the puppets (those ones looked like side characters).

    I'M CRYING.
    I LOVE Coraline!!! The book was such a fun read and the movie really lived up to it, maybe did even better... and the way Henry Selick interpreted their world was so amazing. I can't even.

      +The Carpetbagger The opening gag pictures a large structure reading "Sex and Violence" with a voice-over saying "Ladies and Gentlemen, presenting the end of sex and violence on television." Crazy Harry then comes in and blows up the structure.
      The entire episode includes a bunch of random scenes and gags with the main plot being a "Seven Deadly Sins Pageant" a theatre (not the Muppet theatre) is putting on. These deadly sins are the puppets housed in the display.

    I'm not really a puppet enthusiast but I'm impressed. This is quite a place. I don't know if it would fit in this particular museum but I was remembering the malevolent ventriloquist dummy in the movie "Magic" from about 1980-- I don't know if she's there but I remember seeing a game show once on "Sesame Street" and one of the panelists was a muppet named Arlene Frantic. I hope they got the OK to do that from Arlene Francis who used to be a panelist on the game show "What's My Line"! ---Also I remember Wayland Flowers and his wonderful muppet named Madam. I remember her talking about her long-ago days at M.G.M.: "Jean Harlow always got the best parts but then she had the best parts to begin with".

Weird as it sounds I feel like I know you in real life because we watch so much of your stuff. My nine year old son is a huge fan as well. We watch a couple of your videos every night between dinner and bed. It’s hard to find a channel that is appropriate for kids and still entertaining for adults. We could you through Adam The Woos channel. Thanks again and keep it up!

    We went there about a year after you did - I totally agree with you about emotional - besides being a major Muppet Fan, I also did puppets at our church for several years as a student and later the leader over our youth - So this was a wonderful trip for me. I have been to Leland, MS - Kermit's birthplace - you must go there if you have not been - small but the lady that was there a few years ago had so much knowledge and so much pictures and memorabilia in books - When we went to Center for Puppetry I first went slowly thru the Henson side and then thru the Global side - taking tons of pictures - then I made my husband - also a Muppet fan but maybe not as big - let me go back thru the Henson side and just look and soak it all in - they also had a traveling Labyrinth exhibit out across from the other entrance - it stays I think til October and I saw recently they are having a Ball before it goes - Love watching your videos those I've been to like this - there were a few different Muppets out from your trip and mine - the lady said they do change things out usually once a year or so - Oscar wasn't there we had Cookie Monster and Hoots Randolph in with Grover and Elmo but the great Roosevelt Franklin yay yay yay - was there - I also like to see the ones near me - some I have seen and some not - also the things I have heard of but never been to - Now I will know if I want to go and some of the places you have gone and I know I will never see myself - so keep up the good work! - Oh by the way Vulcan is getting a make over - a new paint job and clean up for a few weeks and not available his regular hours - in case you were to come back thru

      He will be happy to see you and proud to show off - they have been posting pics every day or so of what is going on ==== I have looking at your map and haven't seen anything on Selma, AL yet - besides the famous bridge there are a couple cool cemeteries there - New Live Oak has the grave of an Elvis Tribute Artist that because of his close voice tribute he was chosen to wear a mask and be known as Orion - Jimmy Ellis and the original Live Oak Cemetery is so old and ornate - the stones are amazing there - A Vice President is buried there as well as Mary Todd Lincoln's step sister and other interesting folks and they have a Civil War section as well with monuments - so if you come to see Vulcan and traveling a little south you might stop there too
