Illustration showing Sarah from the Labyrinth sitting in her bedroom, wearing her distinctive outfit from the film, sitting with her legs crossed on the bed holding a book and reading it with visible fascination as she is surrounded by most of the main characters from the film including Hoggle the dwarf, Ludo, a brown horned beast, William the worm, a blue worm-like creature wearing a tiny red scarf around its neck, Sir Didymus a talking Yorkshire Terrier wearing an eye patch and Ambrosius the dog sitting next to the bed near them. In the room there are several items referencing both the film and other Jim Henson works including the Muppets and The Dark Crystal, including a picture of Henson himself holding Kermit the frog hanging on the wall.

This is going to sound like I’m working for #Paramount … but I promise – it’s just my genuine love for all things #StarTrek.

And if you’re a fan, you probably already know that “Strange New Worlds” is made by folks who truly love Trek.

Season 3 just began, but we also got a sneak preview of something special planned for Season 4 …

no, it’s not “Pigs in Space,” but the #JimHenson Creature Shop will be lending a hand (many hands, actually).

I. Can’t. Wait!

#Muppets

That face! That hair! It can only be Captain Pike … transmogrified into a Muppet!
