    I'm having a rough couple days missing Jim. Happy 75th to the man who made it ok to be young at heart. You are SO missed, but your legacy will live on forever. :) Thanks for this page!

    Jim Henson was a great creator and has made children's
    lives more interesting by teaching them while having fun.

    I found myself sitting in front of the computer much as you had sat in front of the TV as a child, looking at your marvelous selection of Henson videos. The Count and Cookie Monster has my vote as no. 1 but in fact they are all number 1. What a marvelous lens! 5* and thanks.

    Jim Henson was an amazing inspiration to me to do cartooning when I was small. I would just adore the characters he created and crease up with tears of joy at the gags he would use in his shows; and that has not changed even though I am 43 now! True family entertainment is sometimes hard to come by these days and he is sadly missed! What a great man! 5* Lens!

    Hi blondeheroine, Fun Jim Henson lens. I didn't realize that he played such a huge role in so many popular and valuable children's entertainment productions. I love The Dark Crystal. I have the DVD :) Congrats on LOTD. ~Music Resource~

    Great lens - a nice tribute to a uniquely talented man who made so many of us laugh and brought so many crazy characters to life.

    Is it true that Animal is based on Keith Moon (drummer of The Who)?

    I voted for Sesame Street as my favorite because I adore Ernie and Cookie Monster. But in all fairness, it was a tie between Sesame Street and Muppet Babies. Lots of special memories of watching Muppet Babies with my son, who loved it. But he also was crazy for Cookie Monster.

    A great tribute to a man who affected all our young lives. I am glad to see that I am not alone in appreciating the tremendous talent that was lost way too soon when Jim Henson died. What Walt Disney had done for animation was in comparison what Henson did for his field of work. He is sorely missed.
