The Intersection of The Muppets, Little House, and Harriet the Spy with Halle Stanford

Pop Culture Preservation Society

President of Jim Henson Television (and fellow GenX pop-culture freak) Halle Stanford is here and we have MUCH to discuss! We’re talking Muppets (of course), Sesame Street, Little House on The Prairie (you’ll never believe how far Halle took her obsession), Karen Carpenter (and her ghost), and Halle’s animated series Harriet The Spy, which is now in its second season on Apple TV. What was it about this 1964 classic that has grabbed hold of multiple generations? And how have Halle and Henson Studios made sure Harriet’s legacy remains true? Whether you loved Grover, Gonzo, or the thrill of spying on your neighbors, you’ll love this fun and spirited conversation!
