Editorial reviews
Patricia L. Lawrence visits Emmy Award-winning writer Jerry Juhl to investigate the beginnings of beloved television programs Sesame Street and The Muppet Show. Juhl was one of the head writers of both shows, and he talks about the process behind the creation of each episode, which at one point involved over 1,000 puppeteers and as many builders. Fans of the Muppets will particularly enjoy Juhl's reminiscences of Jim Henson, whom he considers a pioneer, and whose calm and easygoing personality was the beloved center of a storm of creative people.
