    The "You know what?" thread

    Today I learned that Dinosaurs premiered on the day after Arbor Day. So we go from a day dedicated to taking care of trees to a day when the world saw the premier of a show where the father's job is to push down trees.

    April Fools: Sesame Street returns to Max and new season 56 details

    I saw the news that Max has renewed Sesame Street for season 56 after all. But as a result, some changes are being made. The writers and producers realize it needs to attract adults as well as kids, so they have to focus less on kindness (which have been making a number of Max and even Sesame...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    I dreamt I was looking at the back of a Sesame Street Treasury book, and it showed an image of all the books, including some that I had not seen on the wiki, and was wondering about these. Wondering if they actually came out or were just advertised. One had Little Jerry and the Monotones on the...

    Wishlist Idea: 70 Kermit Moments

    Given the official 70th anniversary of the Muppets being celebrated this year, I thought it would be cool if Sesame Workshop would contribute to the anniversary, and do either a DVD or YouTube compilation of 70 Kermit the Frog moments from the show (I thought they were done with physical...

    What if Frank Oz performed occasionally?

    Yesterday I started thinking: What if Frank Oz did perform on Fraggle Rock, but in more of a guest performer compacity? Like, if he performed just once, or had a character appearing about as often as Jim Henson had? Who would he have been great as? I was thinking maybe he could have been The...

    Little things we've noticed

    I would assume Jerry was doing Herry there (even if his voice isn't heard).

    Little things we've noticed

    I wonder if Caroll Spinney performed Oscar in C is for Cookie. Seems the background was shot separately, so Frank Oz very well could have been two monsters (though he'd likely do Grover), or Jim could have done Oscar and Billy Monster. Spinney had performed Billy at least twice and he's next to...

    Seeing as Mean Mama

    Yeah, the puppet version was used more often. Just about all of the full bodied version’s appearances were as a group of monsters, with no notable solo performances with a guest star, no vocal appearances (well, I think she makes a chuckle in the Leslie Uggams episode).

    Seeing as Mean Mama

    Something I was thinking about yesterday. It looks like most of the full bodied monsters performers see through a hole in their mouths. This was confirmed with Sweetums and looks for be the case with Timmy, Doglion, and The Mutations. I always assumed it was the case with the full-bodied Mean...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    Last night I dreamt me and my family got up real early in the morning so that I could do something relating to Richard Hunt, and this was not long before I had to go to work (and I start work way early in the morning). This was not a special occasion and not endorsed by Henson, Disney, Sesame...

    What song can you not get out of your head?

    In the last couple of days it's been "After Today" from A Goofy Movie.

    Questions about anything

    Do we know who the announcer for the Playhouse Video promos was? I mean the 7-video and 10-video versions of the Muppet compilation commercials. Recently I saw the Beavis and Butthead episode "It's a Miserable Life", and I wonder if he was the voice of Charlie, their guardian angel. The voice...

    Funny Boy: The Richard Hunt Biography

    After I heard that he let Terry Angus take over as Storyteller Fraggle with the explanation that he didn't really like the character, I was surprised, she seemed like the kind of character Richard would like and assumed he was really just helping out a fellow performer. Now I believe what he...
