It's been 30 years since Jim Henson's 'Fraggle Rock' first introduced kids of the '80s to the world of Fraggles, Doozers, Gorgs and a whole host of other fantastic creatures. Like most Henson productions, the show relied heavily on music to advance the plot, convey emotion or just entertain viewers
'Fast and Furious 6' is set to hit theaters next month. To gear up for this undoubtedly earth-shattering and surely unique plot, we thought it would be appropriate to join forces with another film in the league of endless sequels, prequels and trilogies.

Yesterday Jane Henson passed away. She was 78 years old. During her life, she was married to Jim Henson, and she worked with him until she took a break from puppetry to raise their children.

In an adorable new video for Entertainment Weekly's website, the much-beloved Sesame Street characters Grover and Cookie Monster sing about pop-culture hits such as 'The Avengers' and 'The Hunger Games.'

Ben Folds Five really covers all the bases with this one. You probably like 'Fraggle Rock,' right! And if somehow you don't, there's still a strong chance you like Rob Corddry or Anna Kendrick. Really, the chances are there's something you're going to like about this music video.
Not a lot of things surprise us these days, what with farting dolls become all the rage in South Korea and ‘Here Comes Honey Boo Boo’ star Alana Thompson sporting a curly blonde wig gone wild.

It's not exactly what you think. We swear, this one is a little different. Among the array of Carly Rae Jespen's 'Call Me Maybe' cover songs, this one from our childhood friend -- the Cookie Monster -- has got to be one of the better ones. Why? Well, he decided to hold onto only the beat and some of the lyrics, yet change most of them to suit something he wants dearly. No, he doesn't want your number. He wants your cookies.
