Team Smithereen Blog

The producers of the upcoming puppet TV series Team Smithereen have launched a behind-the-scenes blog.

Team Smithereen (see previous post) is a currently-in-production puppet series for Disney's Jetix channel that "follows a hapless team of puppet stuntmen who, more often than not, get into trouble on some of their death-defying feats." The series won't hit the air until 2009, but the production team recently launched a behind-the-scenes Team Smithereen Blog and are promising daily updates with photos, videos and profiles of the creative team.

Special thanks to Sean for sending this in!

The New Tough Pigs

Remember Tough Pigs? The grown-up site for adult "Muppet fans with attitude" was a staple of the Muppet fan community on the web for years until it stopped updating about a year ago. The lack of updates was mainly because chief Tough Pig Danny Horn was preoccupied with, among other things, the Muppet Wiki project. But now Tough Pigs is back better than ever with Danny and several of the key Muppet Wiki contributors updating the site almost daily. The site even has a handy RSS feed now that you can subscribe to.

So if you like your Muppets with a dash of attitude and a side order of funny go take a look at the brand new Tough Pigs site.
