“You’re a child of the ‘70s who fondly remembers “The Muppet Show.” You also loved “Famous Monsters of Filmland,” “Cracked” magazine and your local Creature Feature horror show on late-night local television. Wouldn’t it be great if someone like you, but with actual initiative and drive, created a show that incorporated all those things you loved? Guess what? They did.”
The article is by John W. Allman, who writes a regular column for the Tampa Tribune called Blood, Violence, and Babes: A B-Movie Lover’s Holy Grail. We all know how the South likes their drive-in-type entertainment, and Mr. Allman clearly “gets it!”

TVTV Live at Uptown Theater
Okay, so Furry and LeShoc were at the Uptown Theater in Minneapolis, Monstersota. And this video has some of that. But if you missed the midnight screening of one “Muppet Movie” as part of their Midnight Madness series, then you missed the rest of this video, the complete unedited live-on-tape bit that the boys did for the theater. This video also contains the unadulterated audience response from the small group of late-night-hipster-puppet-fans. And yes, there is such a thing. If you want TVTV to host an event, give us a really good reason to do it at fangmail@transylvania-tv.com.
