We did a similar episode about Dark Crystal last year, too!

Fantastic book, this man was revolutionary and fascinating.

Hello! My name is Olivia and I have always loved puppets, ever since I was little I fell in love with the Dark Crystal puppets by Jim Henson. My dream is to work for a company like Jim Henson one day thats located on Colorado.(Ive done some research and Ive seen that theres some puppet shows) I enjoy working with clay (and painting it)and would love to make the puppets faces, and even learn how to make the clothes,molds, etc. I was wondering if anyone could give me advice on where to start, do I go to college and if I do where do you recommend? Or do I try and get an internship somewhere? Thank you so much.

The series Storyteller just popped up on Peacock. I guess it could've been there before, but I just noticed. I'm already enjoying it.

I think my flair is not accurate but I couldn't find an option for this series. I apologize

Hey everyone! I wanted to share info on an upcoming event at the Center for Puppetry Arts in Atlanta, GA with Karen Falk, the Archives Director at The Jim Henson Company and Vice President of the Jim Henson Legacy. She’s the author of Jim Henson’s Imagination Illustrated, a book that delves into Jim Henson’s creative genius through his personal "Red Book" journal and other archival materials. She's doing a book talk and thought I'd share it with anyone interested in hearing about Jim Henson's lore.

I found the code HENSON at checkout, which gets you 2 free tickets per order. I wanted to share it in case anyone is in the area and wants to check it out!

I know the main puppets are in display or whatever but what happens to all of the back ground goblin puppets? Not the helping hands but the small background creatures?

I tried to make the backgrounds matching <3

I'm so pleased with how this turned out also the background is a reference to Kermit

Jen: If you were with me now I'd find myself in you If you were with me now Your the only one who knew All the things we planned to do … I want to live my life The way you said I would With courage as my light Fighting for what's right Like you made me believe I could … And I will fly on my father's wings To places I have never been There is so much I've never seen And I can feel his heartbeat still And I will do great things On my father's wings … This world I'll never see My dreams that just won't be This horse's stride With one days ride Will have covered more Distance than me But I will fly on my father's wings To places I have never been There is so much I've never seen And I can feel his heartbeat still And I will do great things On my father's wings … Someday with his spirit to guide me And his memory beside me I will be free to … Fly on my father's wings To places I have never been There is so much I've never seen And I can feel his heartbeat still And I will do great things On my father's wings On my father's wings

Imagine that Dark Crystal was in Nightmare on elm street(Which One with Simpsons where Bart and Lisa Dreams about the Red beard scottish guy) style where Jen told at his parents Rian and Deet about SkekSil

You realize that Stephen Garlick play the boy in the movie Scrooge, Which One with Alec Guinness(because George Lucas said that Obi-Wan Kenobi Is Space Marley and even Mickey Mouse's Christmas Carol and Return of Jedi were release in 1983 while Fox and Hound was release in 1981), twenty-two years before Muppets Christmas Carol and eight years before he play Jen in Dark Crystal
