I think one of the great bits of The Muppet show is that it was set in a 19th century British theater and they live so nicely amongst that lovely old theater.

I love the idea that if you build something with enough depth and texture, you can watch it again and again and see new things every time, and that's very important.

With humans you would say, "Don't stand over there." and that would probably work. With puppets, you can't stand over there because you would see the guy underneath. So it is a lot of foreground stuff.

There's a cyclical nature to what people like in the world. Through time, things come around again.

You are a product of what you watch as a kid largely.

I am a great believe that your humor is developed at a very early age and it doesn't ever change.
