Matt Roush says...
Idea Man reminds us of how much we lost when Jim Henson passed away at the peak of his success, on the cusp on selling his company to Disney so he could devote more of his energies to future projects. But it also reminds us of how much we gained from his optimism and humor, living on to this day and beyond in those immortal felt characters so bursting with life and love.
