Hard to believe that puppetmaster Jim Henson left us 17 years ago today. Here are four short reminders of his genius.
A pre-PC (1967) technological takedown: Monster Eats Machine.
Could you get away with featuring an oversexed lady pig in prime time these days?

And the frog who started it all: Kermit's Rainbow Connection.
Plus, buy the first season of "The Muppet Show" on DVD.
