Another idea:

If there were to be another volume of SS Old School to focus on 1969-1974 (Seasons 1-5)

I really think we need one.. if we don't, we won't see "Mad," "Proud," many of The Amazing Mumford's appearances, the song "High, Middle, Low," and many more news flashes that I'd really like to have

Season 6 Classic Cuts:
-Mumford's Surprise Magic Trick

this was before Season 6.. it's probably Mumford's first appearance, because his voice was different and the magic word was "peanut butter" rather than the "a-la peanut butter sandwiches" he employs later

I really think we need one.. if we don't, we won't see "Mad," "Proud," many of The Amazing Mumford's appearances, the song "High, Middle, Low," and many more news flashes that I'd really like to have

We could still have those, in the later episdoes they were included in, though I would muich prefer to have more epsidoes from the first five seasons, and see those skits as classic cuts (unless they are in the episodes included). Or they could be released on other Sesame Street DVDs (not neccessarily in the Old School series). Of course, if Old School is just meant to be releases of season premiers, then we probably won't get the skits you mentioned in the sets (I know that most of those sketches aren't in any season premiers, though I don't know what is in the one season premier between 1969 and 1989 that wasn't included in Sesame Street Unpaved).

this was before Season 6.. it's probably Mumford's first appearance, because his voice was different and the magic word was "peanut butter" rather than the "a-la peanut butter sandwiches" he employs later

Well, then, let's take that out and put "Danger" with Little Jerry and the Monotones back in.

I just learned a mistake that I made. I listed a Willie Wimple sketch for volume 2, focusing on 1974-1979, but I recently learned that the Willie Wimple sketches were made in 1972. All this time I thought they were from the late 1970s.
