JD Hansel: I think the potential of it is the most exciting thing. Naturally, that's how it goes. But not just the potential of more Muppet Show stuff and more good Muppet stuff and more of the Muppets in their element, more of these characters in the environment that they're from where they...

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm thrilled!

This was a pleasant surprise!

Brian Henson at a Muppet Treasure Island screening two days ago: I like having stuff that works on an adult level but will be over the head of kids. And the big, you know, the main one that you see here is Piggy going, "Oh, hello, Long John." And then Kermit going, "What? Him too?" And you know...

This guy is one of my favorite YouTubers currently:

Years before Peter Linz became Ernie's official performer in 2017, he filled in for Steve Whitmire in this video of a family's visit to Sesame Street made in 2006. It's kinda surreal seeing him play Ernie alongside Kevin Clash as Elmo.

Phil Vischer reads an article about James Dobson: "But Dobson's feverish crusades against p*********y, gambling, divorce, and even SpongeBob SquarePants now seem almost quaint in a party that has fully embraced Trumpism". Skye Jethani: What's wrong with SpongeBob? Phil: I forget. He was probably...

The pitch reel for the unproduced early 2000s Muppet series is no longer lost media. My apologies to anyone offended by the joke Pepe makes at 3:29.

As cute as those baby puppets are, I would've preferred a new version sung by normal Ernie. Peter's version of I Don't Want To Live on the Moon at Lincoln Center was so good, I wanna hear him do Dance Myself To Sleep as regular Ernie.

We got a brand new version of Dance Myself to Sleep! Albeit sung by a baby version of Ernie.

Jarrod Fairclough: So one thing this show gave us, which I will forever be grateful for, was drunk and inebriated Muppets. You've got Pepe last episode, super boozed, saying he's gonna become a priest cause it's just a different kind of turtleneck, Fozzie back in episode 3, where he's been shot...

Jarrod Fairclough: IDK if you remember this, Joe, but when we saw this episode, because this and the next episode aired back to back, and that happened during the credits, but when we saw it, we saw it as two different episodes, because Disney gave us screeners. And it included that little bit...

Peter Linz: When Steve Whitmire left Sesame Street, they had internal auditions for Ernie, and there were different producers there at the time that are no longer with the show, but I auditioned and practiced Ernie, and the auditions dragged on and on, and at this point I'd already done Walter...

Warner Bros. Discovery never owned Sesame. They just released the episodes.
