The MUPPETS' JIM HENSON Office Exhibit at CENTER FOR PUPPETRY ARTS

[@sajonana]

As a child my dad was a manager at ATV studios in Elstree, so I got to see the Muppet show several times being filmed. I also got to go round the backrooms and workshop and even had a photo taken with Kermit there. It was a magical moment!

[@ninademci1500]

@sajonana, I 💯% agree with you.

[@lorih2924]

Watched Sesame Street growing up and then The Muppet Show. Brought back so many happy memories. Jim Hensen and creative crew so amazingly talented and creative. They created so many wonderful characters. Thank you, Jordan for doing this video. Can’t wait for the next video from there. Used to go to Atlanta on a regular basis but haven’t been in a long time. Stay safe. God bless you

[@jan6626]

What a great vlog Jordan. Can't even begin to tell you how many enjoyable hours I spent watching with my son and grand babies when they were all younger. Thanks for sharing this bit of timeless history with us.

[@RaeAnn_1202]

Jordan, I can’t begin to express how much I loved this. It is seriously like seeing old friends. Kermit brought tears to my eyes. Wow! Thank you for showing everything so clearly and not rushing. What an amazing exhibit! Such talented people. Thank you for sharing this with us.

[@contessalouannec8064]

I LOVE THE MUPPETS Thank You for sharing. Another Great Stream.

[@jeffjohnson4015]

This was such a great video on the Muppets. How cool all the information you shared. To see how it all started. If is were not for people like Jim Henson and Walt Disney we would not have the things we have today. Our kids also watched Fraggle Rock, it was really cute.

[@lunalynn70]

This was awesome. Loved seeing the Emmett Otter puppets. One of my childhood favorites.

[@TheMocao]

Loved this! I remember when Jim Henson died. Apple was doing their “Think Different “ campaign and there was a huge billboard downtown Los Angeles of Jim Henson with Kermit. My ex used to enjoy the show Farscape, that used Henson company puppets. I remember Waylon Flowers on Solid Gold when I was a kid

[@louisetregomorgan4907]

Thanks for the 🌈 Rainbow connection Jordan had alot of fond memories come flooding back . 👍

[@HizPlan]

I like to think of them just coming to life every night when the lights go out.

[@lisamusselwhite4600]

The creative process of all of this! Wow.....

[@BigDogCha]

Thank You Jordan!!!! I Love and Appreciate All Things Jim Henson!!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@peterskarlatos2323]

I was in Atlanta about 2 years ago and had the opportunity to visit the center for puppetry arts. Touring this museum brought back so many childhood memories. I got so excited when I got to get an up close look at all my favorite characters from the muppets, sesame street and fragil rock.

[@vilstef6988]

Rowlf appeared on the Jimmy Dean Show in 1964. I first encountered the label Muppet at about that time.

[@marshasullivan4074]

Just loved loved loved this vlog. I'm 65 so really lived with these characters ! How clever was Jim Henson ! As were the other creators. Thanks Jordan !

[@lyndac7511]

What amazingly talented people to create all these fabulous characters awesome thanks Jordan 👍👍👍👍

[@lindamorris5548]

This was so cool Jordan... a chance to see old friends again! I knew Don Sahlin before the Muppets. He worked with a wizard of puppetry in Los Angeles, Bob Baker. When I was in high school, the local recreation department sponsored a puppetry class for teens, taught by Bob and his partner Alton Wood. Don often visited the class and assisted. The class put on shows around Southern California, as the Lincoln Park Puppeteers. I was a member of the Puppeteers of America for a few years too and also met Jim Henson in NYC, when I visited Don there, a few years before Sesame Street began on TV. The people I met and those experiences were an important part of growing up for me. Thanks for a great vlog!

[@outsider238]

Young or old, it doesn't matter who they are, everyone loves the Muppets. Thank you Jim Henson for the enormous joy you gave to the world.

[@jasonmcgovern1364]

Hi Jordan, nice that we got to see Jim's office. It's great to be able to see the actual size of these puppets. Love that photo of the production day where they are huddled together for the four shot with the puppets. How lovely seeing 'Kermit' welcoming you to the exhibition. You made me laugh singing 'Fraggle Rock', I could just imagine you dancing there ha, ha. Great vlog Jordan.

What a great Museum. Definitely took me back to my childhood. Thanks for showing this Jordan.

[@mrDCunningham]

What a awesome museum. 👍🏻😎

[@sammychicken3457]

Really enjoyable Jordon. It's incredible how labour intensive the design, putting together & performing the art of puppetering is. I certainly have a new appreciation with regard to the whole process & now when watching n the Muppets I will not just see it at face value. Thank you again Jordon.

[@Richy.Boi.]

Loving the updated animation / music opener

[@karentarr8930]

They are such a big part of our lives, I was an adult but my stepchildren loved them and of course I grew to love them also🥰

[@imthebossofme63]

One of my customers little boy got a pet rat and showed it to me today. He named it Kermit. Kids still love the Henson muppet!

[@mikewilles4407]

That one brings out the child in all of us, the Braves now play in Cobb county, about 10 miles north of the old stadium. Thanks for that gem of a vlog!

[@luquezada1049]

I loved Sesame Street when i was a kid. Kermit and Miss Piggy were my faves and also watched the Muppet Show. I had the Christmas album they did with John Denver lol really cool to see this vlog!

[@richierichardo209]

Even though I was a teenager when Sesame Street started in '69, I would still watch it for the comedy of Ernie & Bert and Kermit. Same reason I was still watching kids shows like PeeWee's Playhouse in the 80's 😄 Nice tour of the place Jordan 👍

[@Grover1234]

I too still watch Sesame Street no matter how old I get. It's my main Henon show that I'll still catch. Even tho the show has changed SOOOO MUCH since I watched it growing up but I still get a kick out of it.

[@Avatar_G1rl18]

I loved watching peewee’s play house as a kid to🥲😊

[@crush41gb]

Love this! When you said famous Peachtree St. I immediately thought which one lol? In ATL, I think there are more Peachtree Streets than any other. I think 71 of them? 🤪

[@tiamia7139]

At least! I lived on Peachtree Dunwoody Road for 15 years. I now live in the suburb of Roswell and there's a peach tree in my backyard. 😄🍑🍑🍑

I regret not buying a shirt that said “I’ll meet you at Peachtree” then showed all the street signs. I lived in Americus for a few years. Loved it!

[@tiamia7139]

Jordan, you're in my town! You could spend days in Atlanta doing videos. There is so much history here and so many famous musicians and movie artists live here. Please consider doing a video on the Fox Theater It is one of the few "jewel box" theaters left in the US. It has an amazing history and is absolutely beautiful. Thousands of artists - rock, jazz, country and classical - have played on its stage. They all want to play "The Fabulous Fox." Long ago there was a fire and they wanted to tear it down. Hundreds of artists donated their performance fees to help rebuild it. It is a GEM!

[@thomasconnors6755]

Very very cool I love it thank you so much

The Mae West and Carol Channing puppets are beautiful.

[@conniefeltman4561]

JUST AWESOME! You never realized all that went into creating them … they were part of my life for years … my kids loved them! Of Course … my youngest loved … BOB PARKER … TOO! 😂😂😂

[@sg2823]

Boy, that brings back memories! I remember a audio book narrated by the late Carol Spinney: "Street Gang 50 years of Sesame Street". Good book! Hard to believe all of the classic puppeteers are gone except Frank Oz.

[@cathpeterson1944]

I've seen this museum in other videos and it's staggering how many puppets from around the world they've got. I believe Crow T. Robot and Tom Servo from Mystery Science Theater are also there in the museum elsewhere.

When my son was born, he looked like Ernie with the hair..😁

The stadium at the beginning of your video is the old home of the Braves. It was recently purchased by Georgia State University because the Braves have a new stadium (Truist Park) North of Atlanta in Cobb County.

I loved watching Sesame Street when I was little I watched it from 1986 to 1992. I think that was heathens 15 through 23 my favorite characters were always Burton Ernie why because I love their comedy gags , and how Eirne was always annoy Bert. They were always best friends even though, they didn't like the same things.
