On February 1, Movie Addict Headquarters shines the spotlight on Jim Henson and The Muppets. Canadian film critic Geoff Roberts has agreed to discuss this fun topic with our producer Nikki Starr. He will talk about how Henson became interested in puppetry and will share backstage information about The Muppets Show, Sesame Street, and Fraggle Rock.

Our guest also plans to cover some of the iconic characters in these popular shows, including Kermit the Frog, Rowlfe, Bert & Ernie, Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch. 

Geoff Roberts is a frequent guest on Movie Addict HQ. He always completes in-depth research about each episode’s topic, and that explains why he has become one of our favorite guests.  Geoff has been a guest on a variety of Canadian and American radio and TV programs.

From 2006 to 2009 Geoff was a guest on “daytime” in Mississauga, Canada, giving his perspective on the Academy Awards. From 2013-2014 he was the host of Front Row Center on WhiStle Radio in Stouffville. He also contributes film commentary to ReelTalk Movie Reviews.

SPOTLIGHT ON JIM HENSON & THE MUPPETS airs live at 4 p.m. Eastern Time on BlogTalkRadio on Tuesday, February 1, 2022. An archived segment will be available after the live show.
