    Just Frank Oz’s reaction at the start alone breaks my heart..... that’s the sign of a best friend

      Yeah! Speaking of Frank Oz, him and Jim brought up my favorite muppet...Cookie Monster. And Frank is the guy who voiced him. He was part of Sesame Street. One of Jim Henson’s most famous show’s he worked on.

    I wasn't born yet when Jim died, but thanks to video tapes I grew up with a love for the Muppets, which led to an appreciation for his other work. I'm seventeen now and I really admire him due to his creativity and determination. Jim Henson will continue to inspire people like me for years to come. I think he would be happy knowing what an impact he's made!

    The Muppets were so much apart of my childhood, and my earliest memories were videotaped specials and watching Muppet Babies. I was born three years before Jim Henson's untimely passing, but his legacy lives on in my memories.

  • @Fabfashionguru
    @Fabfashionguru 10 лет назад +12

    I still remember when I was told that Jim died. It was hard for me. He was the reason why I'm still alive. I tried to command suicide but Kermit and Jim always say,"life's like a movie write your own ending." I decided to live and when he died. The first thing I did was cry. I was so sad. My grades were low and my smiles had faded for years. When Kermit smiled again, I realized that I had to too.

    Growing up, the "Old Maestro" wasn't Walt Disney, the man whose animators lovingly gave that nickname to. It was Jim Henson. My first memory of going to the movies was my Dad taking me to see The Muppets Take Manhattan. Watching Fraggle Rock on HBO was something we'd never let a Sunday go by without if we could help it. I had "Happiness Hotel" committed to heart when I was in the 1st grade. Losing Jim was really tough for me, and I thank God for what he gave, and that it's still with us today.

    @Mary Ammon: The song came from "Snoopy the Musical". Henson was a Peanuts fans and respected Schulz's work. And as mentioned in part 1, Henson and Schulz were both Oz fans. So, really, creativity begets creativity. Disney inspired MGM's Oz, Oz inspired Henson and Schulz, and they in turn, inspire others.

    I love Jim Henson for creating the Muppets and especially Kermit. But I was born in 1992. So I'm used to Steve Whitmire as Kermit and so I grew to love him. I think Mr. Whitmire doesnt get appreciated enough but thats just my opinion. You re loved Mr. Whitmire!! ♥

    When I found out Jim Henson was dead I went into a funk that lasted a very long time. Of course one has to move on but it was a loss that I never really got over. I'm glad to see the muppets are still kicking but it's not really the same.

    The end song to this episode is from the Muppet Movie, co-written with Paul Williams and Kenny Ascher. I'm most familiar with Williams because of Phantom of the Paradise. I'd pay some serious coin to find out if Jim ever saw Phantom of the Paradise.

    1 The Land of Gorch an SNL Movie (in 1982)
    2 The Tempest (in 1984)
    3 Twilight Zone the Movie Part 2 (in 1986) (with Ivan Rightman, Stanley Kubrick and Martin Scorsese)
    4 The Muppets on Zombie Island (in 1987)
    5 Sesame Street: Rowlfs Magic Piano (in 1987)
    6 The Fraggle Rock Movie (in 1988)
    7 Andrew Lloyd Webbers Starlight Express (in 1989)

      iHeart Gaming and Whose Line Yep. This special aired in 1999. In February 2000, the Henson Company was bought by EMTV of Germany. In December 2000, EMTV, in a financial crisis, sold off the Sesame gang to Sesame Workshop, then in 2003, sold the rest of Henson back to the Henson family. And then in 2004, Henson finally sells the main Muppet gang (and a post-Jim show called Bear in the Big Blue House) to Disney, while retaining the rest of the Henson catalogue. So now Jim’s legacy is split between the Henson Company, Disney, and Sesame Workshop. Lotta activity in such a short time.

      I don't mean to be disrespectful or anything but I'm a Christian and I take great offense to this. don't hate or blame god because that's absolutely not true. We all die sooner or later when our time comes but Jim Henson died from an illness that was so sudden. It IS god's decision whether or not you die, but God does not kill nor make people sick on purpose. It was just his will. God loves people like Jim so why would you think he would kill him? Or anyone for that matter. I love Jim Henson with all my heart and I too think that it's unfair that he passed away, but at the end of the day it just happened and there was nothing anyone could do.
