Another Christmas-Related Post

Hi and Happy Holidays!

Here's the presents I got:
  1. Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Special Edition DVD (This comes with bunches of special features, a map on the cover and a storybook on what happening on the film.)
  2. Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi: Let's Go! DVD
  3. Bunches of $50 bills (I'm rich!)
Also as an early present, a DVD set of the first season of The Muppet Show. I got this as a replacement copy since the original copy is lost somewhere.

So that's my post I written and this is my last post of 2019!

"I Hope Gonna Miss You, Mr. Spinney"

I got some sad news! First it was Jim Henson, than Richard Hunt, than Jerry Nelson and now Carroll Spinney.

Yeah, it's long-gone to see another Muppet puppeteer and childhood hero disappeared. He performed Big Bird and Oscar for almost 50 years.


He also performed Picklepuss and Pop, first appeared in Boston's Bozo Big Top in 1967....

...and Bruno, Oscar's trashman.

The reason the post's title is called "I hope gonna miss you, Mr. Spinney", is based on an episode about Hooper's death with Big Bird saying "I hope gonna miss you, Mr. Looper". Big Bird usually don't say Hooper right.

I even saw a documentary called "I Am Big Bird", which is about Carroll Spinney's life.

I'm pretty sure I'll miss him so much since now Matt Vogel now preformed Big Bird and Eric Jacobson performed Oscar. So long...
