Sam and Friends Book Read our review of the long-awaited book, "Sam and Friends - The Story of Jim Henson's First Television Show" by Muppet Historian Craig Shemin.
Well, the Season Premiere wasn't so bad. Good to see the season start off with a Big Bird-centered story instead of an Elmo-centered one, which seems to have been commonplace since 2002 (with some exceptions, such as last year's Telly-centered season premiere). It was good to see practically ALL...
It worked for me.
The new opening sequence was pretty cool. Even though the theme music was pretty much identical to the 2007-2008 theme, I could tell right away it was a different recording when it started up (the harmonica in the beginning gave it away), and the visuals that go with it are...
Even though it was the version with new background music, it looks like nothing was cut from it like I heard it was. The running time for the official version there is four minutes and 56 seconds, while the one that qbeam uploaded on YouTube back in February 2006 (taken from "The Best of Ernie...
Speaking of wolves, I've decided for Halloween I'm gonna be BIG BAD WOLF DADDY! Like in this episode of "The House of Mouse"...

I found a costume that would be just perfect for the zoot suit part...
WHAT? Sesame Street's getting ANOTHER new opening/closing sequence? The hip-hop intro was only introduced two years ago!
But then again, Sesame Street did get a new opening sequence for its 30th season (that "retro" intro with kids playing with Big Bird in Central Park).
Now we can say the...
Hopefully the Abby segments won't be in EVERY episode, similar to how "Ernie and Bert's Great Adventures" isn't in every episode (great segment series BTW, and I was happy to finally see them last year when they showed them as part of "Sesame Street!") I think a good idea would be to alternate...
Actually, I heard that there IS going to be a new Scooby-Doo TV series for 2009, entitled "Scooby-Doo - Mystery Inc." Not much details, but I hope it's better than the insult that was "What's New Scooby-Doo."
Ever since Warner Bros. Animation took over producing Scooby-Doo cartoons in 1998...
WooT! I always love it when they make Halloween rubber masks and costumes of characters like that!
But now on to my judging...
The Kermit the Frog adult costume is pretty interesting, I have to admit. It does stink that it doesn't come with the feet and that the mask only covers the front of...
It's a good thing I never saw the I-Beam skit when I was little. It had a Nightmare scare factor! The dark setting, red-hot I beam and that dramatic music score (that sounds like something that would accompany a war movie!), not to mention that video freeze at the end as a drumroll is heard...
1989.
BTW, I saw the I-Beam there too. I was surprised they decided to put it under "Science and Technology." I thought it would've been in the Letters/Alphabet heading. I guess CTW finally figured it out that it isn't as good to show as part of teaching the letter "I." (I have heard rumors...
It might be because of the unavailability of certain voices.
For instance, Sonia Manzano was unavailable to voice Maria in "Big Bird Brings Spring to Sesame Street," and if Fran Brill voiced Maria using the voice she used in the video, kids would instantly know it's not really Maria, so they...
Now that the original version of the 1969 skit about Bert and Ernie's blackout is on YouTube, I have taken the liberty of doing my "modernized" version of the skit...
(We start on Ernie and Bert watching TV, a rather loud DVD of some old Western movie.)
Bert: Hey Ernie… Ernie I’m tired...
