Muppet Rockumentary!

It was stated by the Hollywood Reporter today, that a mock rock n' roll documentary (or mock rockumentary, if you will) featuring the Muppets is in the works. The Jim Henson Company is reportedly partnering up with Disney's Muppets Holding Co. on a project that sounds a lot like a Muppet takeoff on idea behind 1984's "This Is Spinal Tap". When the Muppets were first sold to Disney, it was stated that the Henson Company has a three-year deal to develop new movies and television projects for Disney - this appears to be one of the first. No information on if this is a TV-special, a feature film, a direct-to-video project, or what. There is no further information on this production at this time, however fans hope that this rocumentary (or should I say mockumentary) features the classic Muppet rock band "Dr. Teeth & the Electric Mayhem. More on this story as it develops.

G'day Greg, what a great blog you have here, been entertained by the read. Just noticed that my brief time visiting blogs looking for ##Link## items has run into a couple of hours. Easily done when you get engrossed in what people write about. I should really use frontpage hosting as a search term but then I might miss places such as Muppet Rockumentary!. Besides which working all the time is boring.

Hi Greg, oh dear, I'm getting square eyed here - must have been spending too much time reading blogs and shared hosting plan information. I'm supposed to be looking for shared hosting plan items but I find it all too easy just to click 'Next' and just see anything which is how I came to Muppet Rockumentary!. Some blogs I just skip through but I spent a while here. Ciao.

Hello Greg, there's so much written about shared hosting plan that I'm getting quite quite depressed how to sort it all out and decide what is good and what is not. Your Muppet Rockumentary! has been better than most and now perhaps I can make more use of shared hosting plan.
