I’ve read a few things on the Neverland Files but it sounds like I need to check out more… I also do plan on reading his new bio. I’ve heard good things. Happy to hear the voices are better! Fozzie in The Muppets, especially, was painful to me. Kermit’s voice changes, for some reason, never bothered me. Maybe because I grew up hearing Whitmire and Henson at the same time? I don’t know, I’m a strange person. But I’m just so excited that the Muppets are properly back that I shouldn’t complain 🙂

I’ll admit to not being much of a Jim Hill fan (too much speculation?) and after reading this, I do believe you should check out the Jim Henson bio. 🙂 Jim was so involved in his work that he ignored his own needs so much (hi his marriage) so this was such a disruptive end to what would have been more brilliance for sure. I do love all of those Muppet concepts and I learned about them the first time on a website called The Neverland Files. Have you visited?

I think Piggy is sounding better these days, and the voices were really good in Muppets Most Wanted. (Not a spoiler!) Especially the singing voices. Brian Jacobson has been doing the voices since before Oz officially retired… I wonder sometimes if the bond that Jim and Frank oz affects the characters and how they sound. Does that make sense? When they original crew was pieced together, they were pals. They were their characters. I feel like luck like that doesn’t strike twice. I do hope you’ll see a change in the new movie though. (Even Kermit though… when you really stop and compare, he doesn’t sound the same either and there’s just nothing to do about that. Sigh. But I still like him.)
