The Great Muppet Caper - 08 - Night Life

Not a lot of people know that Joe Raposo did a couple of Non-Sesame Street Muppet Show related music composing. For example...

The Great Muppet Caper ( 1981 ) : Miss Piggy Fight Scene

Muppet Treasure Island was the other movie where Miss Piggy beat up multiple people at a fast speed where in The Muppet Movie it was pushing off a whole group of villains. The Muppets Take Manhattan featured that awesome pose of her in that scary pose screaming / roller skating out of a bush and going after someone who took her purse, and in The Muppets Go To Disney World - It's just awesome to see Muppets in Anti-Fascist action ( Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular! scene ) . Then of course there's her smashing up the studio in The Fantastic Miss Piggy Show ( special ) . She's changed a lot in the newer stuff however.

Happy 40th Anniversary of The Great Muppet Caper ! " If that's The Happiness Hotel, I hate to see what the sad one looks like. " lol

Spitting Image (1986) - Series 2, Episode 7 | Full Episode

Enjoy the UNCENSORED Ghostbusters parody while you can, if you know what I mean. ;). You know how " American " YouTube is about stuff like that. lol #spittingimage #spittingimagepuppets #rogerlaw

Statler and Waldorf heads from Muppets Tonight auctioned at Prop Store. Video with MythBusters' Adam Savage.

 I'm guessing that these Statler and Waldorf heads are from Muppets Tonight. At least from the mid-late 1990s era.

At this time whenever people find things like this, I don't know why people can't just donate them to the Jim Henson / Muppet exhibits at the museums. 

The Museum of The Moving Image, Center of Puppetry Arts ( Atlanta, GA ), Smithsonian, Birthplace of The Frog Museum in Leland MS, or the traveling Jim Henson exhibitions.

It just makes sense for someone to do that.

Omnibus: Luck & Flaw's Illustrated Guide To Caricature

I'm still amazed on how there was more of a presence of the Spitting Image James Gillray puppet than I thought. The puppet appeared in 1985 but didn't appear on the show until the late 1980s as a stock puppet. Roger Law did mention that the James Gillray Spitting Image puppet did exist in 2010 which was also on display in many of his exhibits. There's many things that Spitting Image has done and most of it is RARE ! Some of the footage from this documentary has been seen in the 2014 documentary " Whatever Happened To Spitting Image ". #spittingimage #spittingimagepuppets #rogerlaw #caricature #caricaturist #satire #satirists #puppetry

Scooby-Doo meets Courage the Cowardly Dog

The first Courage the Cowardly Dog movie and it's not only just a direct-to-video modern Scooby Doo cross-over but ( even though most of the original Courage the Cowardly Dog cast will be featured in the movie except Eustace ) there is no involvement of the Courage the Cowardly Dog creator John R. Dilworth and Stretch Films. :( The animation according to the trailer already looks slightly different from the animation seen on the original Courage the Cowardly Dog series. #couragethecowardlydog

BritBox Spitting Image Series 2 : Promo 2

These promos are better than last year. And even though the official Spitting Image has been uploading classic episodes / clips which is great , I have a strong feeling that BritBox Spitting Image Series 2 is going to end up just like Series 1. As I've mentioned before in my video essays, BritBox Spitting Image is closer to 1990s Spitting Image rather than 1980s Spitting Image, but still lacks in comparison to 1990s Spitting Image. But there are a few things to appreciate. Cartoon violence being one of them which is something that was shared by all three versions and even the French inspired Les Guignols De L'info. #SpittingImage #SpittingImagePuppets #RogerLaw

BritBox Spitting Image Series 2 ( Official Trailer ) ( Review )

 I don't know if BritBox Spitting Image Series 2 will be any better than the first or if it's one of those situations where the trailers look better than actual new series of BritBox Spitting Image.

This does look funnier than anything I've seen in most of series 1.

And of course, bringing back Spitting Image's traditional " headbutt " .

Hopefully the new series will be closer to the 1980s Spitting Image and not just a modern day version of 1990s Spitting Image ( minus the satirical music parodies ), especially how the official Spitting Image social media has been uploading all of series 1, most of series 2, and a few episodes and clips from 1980s Spitting Image.

But of course because of the capitalism of the entertainment industry, it's mostly likely than not to have doubts and be skeptical.

So for now, I think it's just going to be another BritBox Spitting Image Series 1. But surprisingly decent clip. Though again, not as energetic as the original. And as before, there's that feeling that something is toned down a little bit.

Street Gang: How We Got To Sesame Street - A MUST SEE FILM !

Street Gang the Documentary is FINALLY available digital TO OWN !

I've waiting a long time because I knew this documentary was going to be so good that I didn't want to see it as a rental.

Next to HBO Max releasing Classic Sesame Street episodes, THIS IS THE OTHER GREAT WAY TO CELEBRATE SESAME STREET'S 50th.

This is the best Jim Henson / Muppet related documentary since Frank Oz's Muppet Guys Talking.

For those who have read Brian Jay Jones' book Jim Henson : The Biography and of course the book Street Gang, this is a must watch for the classic fans out there.

It's the ultimate classic Sesame Street film

( Yes, I will get the DVD and Blu-ray next month too ! ) !

* Brand New Interviews with Christopher Cerf, Lisa and Brian Henson, Joan Ganz Cooney, Norman Stiles, Luis Rodriguez ( Luis ), Sonia Manzano ( Maria ), Roscoe Orman ( Gordon ) Bob McGrath ( Bob )

* Awesome rare behind the scenes footage and bloopers

* Jim Henson dancing and singing with the crew ( near the credits, left side )

* More info about Jon Stone

* And the fact that Classic Sesame Street was THE BEST version ! And it was political, it has strong roots during the movements and times of the 1960s, truly " revolutionary " !

A MUST SEE FILM !

Thoughts / Opinions on Anarchists against New Age Spirituality

  It's not uncommon to hear Anarchists / Leftists reject New Age Spirituality and vise versa. This is why I have talked about New Age Spirituality from an Anarchist prospective in terms of Anarchist Spiritual reform aka Spiritual Anarchism not only on blog articles but blog videos as well. There was even a recent sketch on my satirical show " The Erica Crooks Show " on how many Anarchists can be very ridged in terms of the " proven by science only " mindset that it can violate the liberty of Spiritual Anarchists / Religious Anarchists. 

 There was even a comic that I did with both an Anarchist and New Age Spirituality person arguing and my point again was why not both ? And of course Anarchists would be more willing to reject it not only as pseudoscience but also as just another hierarchical religion which explains why most Anarchists are Atheists. I've heard that Anarchists are skeptics and not believers, but what about those who are both ? I think the point of Anarchism is more on the lines of making sure that there's no hierarchical power over others. Anarchists tend to go after Spirituality like Religion and any other hierarchical doctrine written by the capitalist ruling classes in order to expose on it's real purpose which is to use brainwashing technics to keep us obedient, divide and conquer, etc. However I do believe that going towards Spirituality in such a way is again coming from an Atheist / proven by science only mindset and the point I was making in my satire is that if people don't use critical thinking, empathy and sympathy for others then they could get extremely caught up in it. If Anarchists want to be Atheists and believe that there's no afterlife, fine but that's just as much their liberty as an Anarchist that believes there is one at least. An Anarchist Society should welcome knowledge including knowledge from the past. At least in my opinion.

Sesame Street - Five Jive

5 more days until Street Gang : The Documentary becomes available on digital. 

According to Muppet Wiki, this is from 1991 ( Season 23 : 1991 - 1992 ). The 1990s ( when the show's seasons were in the 20s ) was around the end of Classic Old School Sesame Street and the start of the change of the show's entertainment quality. Jim Henson's final season was Season 21. Richard Hunt's final season was Season 22. Tough Pigs mentioned how Season 25 was the indicator of the show's change in format as well as season 30 due to trying to keep up with the competition of other educational shows for kids like Barney & Friends which took a different approach then Sesame Street ever did. Elmo went from just one of the monsters to becoming a main character. When he first became a character, his personality was very similar to the short lived girl version of Cookie Monster named " Deena " who just wanted to play all the time to the point of being impulsive and causing problems to other characters. lol Then by the early 1990s, he became more Big Bird, child-like. Maybe it was around the time of Tickle Me Elmo but he became a younger character afterwords. It's true that Sesame Street is an educational show for kids but there used to be this great entertainment quality aspect to it. And as a fan of Old School Classic Sesame Street, I'm very excited about seeing this documentary. :) In my opinion, this is WAY better than the current one which seems to me like "Play With Me Sesame" level now, sort of. But I'm just expressing this as a Classic Jim Henson Muppet fan. :) I agree with Frank Oz who of course prefers the original version, where it used to be hip for adults. Often the original Muppet crew would describe The Muppet Show as being Adult / Family and Sesame Street as Kid / Family. And that's something The Muppets tried to revive which was Family Entertainment with quality entertainment. Jim Henson grew up in the 1940s / 1950s when entertainment and cartoons didn't have such a strict rating system and audience division like there is today with the entertainment industry. Unfortunately most people have that consumer mindset. Even YouTube has that COPPA law thing where people need to separate their videos for kids or for adults. Anyway, I'm very excited to see this documentary. It looks AWESOME ! :)

Spitting Image (1984) - Series 1, Episode 12 | Full Episode

The legendary final episode of series 1 of Spitting Image ( 1984 ) has been uploaded. This was originally intended to be the last and final episode of the show. The show would continue until 1996 with 12 years and 18 series, and then returning in 2020 with two series. The second series of Britbox Spitting Image starts this fall. Britbox Spitting Image is even more distant from 1980s Spitting Image than 1990s Spitting Image is. 

This features Sting singing the Spitting Image parody lyrics for "Every Breath You Take" which they called "Every Bomb You Drop".

This would be one of the biggest highlights of Spitting Image history.

30 Years of Spitting Image joining Phil Collins and Genesis with The Land of Confusion music video in 1986. 

Yes, Spitting Image is a show ( 1984 - 1996 ) ( 2020 - current ) 

And the Genesis Land of Confusion Spitting Image music video happened because Spitting Image satirized Phil Collins https://spittingimage.fandom.com/wiki/Hello,_You_Must_Be_Going  . And that didn't stop Spitting Image from doing it after the music video either.

The other puppets for the band members of Genesis would be recycled as stock puppets through out the rest of the show's original run.

Spitting Image (1984) - Series 1, Episode 10 | Full Episode

Fred Hampton: Not About Race

Pepe Le Pew has been retired / fired / CANCELED by CANCEL CULTURE ( satire )

It's sad that Pepe Le Pew has been officially announced as retired / banned by Warner Bros. He's a satirical character. He's a romantic who's probably watched many romantic movies and read many romance novels but lacks experience in relationships and no one ever told him about boundaries, consent, respect, etc.

Today's culture seems different. Satire & Slapstick Comedy doesn't seem to be as popular as it used to be.
I love it because I feel artistically and creatively that it relates to this quote.
" Art Should Disturb The Comfortable And Comfort The Disturbed. "

I don't think any of this reinforces crime and abuse. It's satire. But culture is different now. It's very commodity focused rather than about life in my opinion.

Not everything is for everyone, not everyone can find this kind of humor healing. We all heal differently. Spiritually, through music, etc.

The world needs love, but we live in a world of hate, fear, sadness & pain unfortunately.

I don't think reform, commodifying, trusting people in power is going to solve anything. Fred Hampton talked about Class Conscious. The root cause of all political problems has the same pattern which is hierarchical power over others. If people got along horizontally socially, the world would be a better place. And when people live happier lives, people can laugh more. :)
Still, satire sometimes needs to do it's duty because that's what satire does. And satire is often a misunderstood art form.

Cancel Culture on Pepe Le Pew & Miss Piggy

It's been an interesting week. I was wondering how would Miss Piggy & Pepe Le Pew respond to the Cancel Culture controversies surrounding them. ;) I'm very happy that the originals are available on the streaming services but unfortunately there's people reacting to them negatively. There's this strong demand for "positive media representation" in characters. And to me, this explains why many favorites in pop culture history aren't as good as the originals in my opinion. Many comedy characters were satirical. But today, people think such characters are negatively reinforcing crime & abuse. And unfortunately, it's nothing new because satire has always been controversial & misunderstood. And the thing is satire and slapstick comedy has been apart of cartoons and puppetry just as long as the art form's existence in history. To me, it's artist tradition. I wish there was more cultural appreciation. But instead, art is looked at as a commodity, instead of what art and entertainment really is about. A reflection on life and the hard working, creative and talented people behind it as well as the fun and love they put into what they love to do. :)

Remembering Emma Goldman on International Woman's Day

One of the most inspirational political philosophers, and feminists in not only American history but world history, and she's rarely ever talked about. Probably because she was thrown out of America. Probably because she was an Anarchist. Probably because she was a truth teller. Probably because she was a woman who spoke out her mind because she knew in her heart and in her intuition that it was the right thing to do even if she was standing alone at times.

Jim Henson is an INFP

 One of my favorite parts about Jim Henson : The Biography by Brian Jay Jones is how it mentions that Jim Henson took the MBTI ( Myers Briggs Personality Test ) & resulted as " Idealist " ( aka INFP ) . As an INFP myself, I find this accurate. :)

iTunes is great for studying animation

 When it comes to buying digital movies, out of all main platforms, I usually stick with iTunes ( which is now Apple TV ) and the reason why is that the videos are downloadable which are quicktime files and through a quicktime player, especially animation, you can study the frames in detail. And if you don't have room on your computer, no problem, you can delete the video file and it's still in your library because it's on a cloud. Amazon doesn't do this. It's strictly on their video player only. Even though Streaming is very popular, I still recommend this as well as digital video ( and DVDs ) , especially when it comes to studying animation, film, etc.  #animation

Classic Sesame Street - (I Can't Get No) Cooperation

This is one of my all time favorite Classic Sesame Street moments. I remember discovering this on the 1990 VHS Rock & Roll and just rewinding the video over and over and over just studying this one song.

This was my introduction to The Rolling Stones. :) And of course, it's a parody of Mick Jagger & The Rolling Stones and their classic hit " I Can't Get No Satisfaction ". In this case, it's Mick Swagger & The Cobblestones in (I Can't Get No) Co-Operation. This was from Season 12 ( 1981 ) which was around the time when new Muppet Performers were joining in on Sesame Street. The vocals of Mick Swagger are performed by ( as well as composed ) the legendary Christopher Cerf. I'm a huge fan of his work on Sesame Street and he's definitely one of the best singers ever. :) He also made some great singles back in the early 1960s too ( Sweet Music, Fallout Filly, The Penguin, etc . )

I believe the puppeteer performing Mick Swagger is Karen Prell who would later be featured as one of the Fraggle 5, Red Fraggle on Fraggle Rock a few years later.

I also recognize Brian Muehl as the keyboard player. 

There's still many things from Classic Sesame Street which Muppet fans are discovering ( and listing on Muppet Wiki of course ;) ).

And it's really cool that many episodes and footage ( especially many which hasn't been seen in about 40 years ) has been restored and presented on HBO Max.

Trump Worries About Election ( The Erica Crooks Show )

 

Oh Dear, Trump is feeling vulnerable about the election ? Cry us all a river ? On second thought, don't bother. The Trump Administration has done enough to pollute the planet. Hopefully we can reverse climate change in time.
