Review
panelists said:
"This film really works for me. It has superb production
values: camera work, sets, lighting, sound and manipulation.
It has charm and humor - a real winner! Bil's puppets are
really the stars!"
"High quality production values meet the unique artistry
of Bil Baird in the adaptation of an early Baird work. This
recaptures for posterity a large portion of the delightful
gruffness, humor and magic of Bil Baird Marionettes."
"This achieves a high level of magic by substituting
flashy special effects with heart, wit, charm, whimsy and
unpretentious storytelling. I found it refreshing to see the
strings and appreciate the simple theatricality. It is pure
old fashioned good taste."

Review
panelists said:
"This pioneer program in instructional television remains
innovative and fresh through super use of now legendary puppet
characters and the infusion of new ones. A trend setter in
television and puppetry, it thrives on sustained excellence."
"I consider these puppet works to be exceptional
for their concept through design to the finished product."
"Puppets become real personal - no archetypes- especially
Big Bird and Oscar. Performers quality - outstanding, scripts
and songs- highest possible!" |
