    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 39

    I haven't been able to see any of the other new episodes after 4165! My schedule guide had all the episode names mixed up, and they've been just airing Season 38 episodes! (I can tell because they use the same opening shot of Murray Monster over and over, while the Season 39 ones use different...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 39

    Well, I'm gonna be going on my cruise tomorrow through Saturday, and I saved some space in the DVR to record the two episodes. I will also not be online these days either. Until then, Bon Voyage to you guys! :D

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 39

    I actually LIKE that Aaron/Ernie version of the song, mainly because they reused the original Jim Henson voice track for Ernie's singing in the new footage. Combining the sweet music and Henson's beautiful Ernie's singing voice with Aaron Neville works really well, IMHO. So am I! I'm going...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 39

    I just realized something. Today's intro shot for "The Word on the Street" (different from yesterday's intro) showed what might possibly be the first appearance of a modern crosswalk signal without words (the orange hand and white body) on Sesame Street! Hopefully they'll talk about this soon...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 39

    Watching my recorded copy of the episode so far. The new Word on the Street skit wasn't so bad. I can see they even shot a new Murray intro for this season to replace the old Season 38 Word on the Street intro! The opening sequence (reused from Season 38) appeared to be in much higher...

    Evolution of Sesame Street segment title cards

    I noticed that some of the long-running recurring Sesame Street sketches that used title cards had them replaced or modified over time. I will list the ones I know... SUPER GROVER 1973-1992 title card: The most well-known intro, where we start on a close up of the "G" shield as we zoom out...

    Official Season 39 Press Kit

    WOW! I've never been so excited at looking forward to a new Sesame Street season before! Here are some things that got me hyped up: * It will be taped in high-definition. * A newly-built version of the set will make its debut. * Jim Henson's Creature Shop will be involved, probably with...

    "Herbert the Timid Dragon and Other Tales"

    I am surprised I didn't post on this forum about this video yet! Last summer I bought this Golden Book Video at a used video store called "Herbert the Timid Dragon and Other Tales." It's a lot like the Sesame Street Golden Book Videos. I wrote a RetroJunk article about it...

    Joe Alaskey

    I guess the reason why Joe Alaskey is Daffy Duck's current voice actor is because of how he did such a good job voicing Plucky Duck. Incidentally on Tiny Toons, while Jeff Bergman and Noel Blanc were doing the classic LT characters on Tiny Toons, Joe Alaskey voiced Marvin the Martian on the...

    Phyllis Diller

    She was also on the Full House episode "But Seriously Folks." I think my favorite performance by her would have to be Great Aunt Mitzi in "Hey Arnold."

    Kermit on Sesame Street today

    They rerun at least one classic Kermit skit a season. Back in Season 37, they showed "Do De Rubber Duck." But it's not the same as his brick-wall lectures and his special reports.

    Next Looney Tunes DVD set cartoon list up!

    Volume 1. That and Volume 5 are the only LTGC volumes to contain a cartoon (or two) featuring Marvin the Martian in them, while all the others seem to deliberately avoid this character! I mean, WB blew a perfectly good chance for some Bugs Bunny cartoons for Disc 1 of Volumes 2, 3 and 4. But...

    Next Looney Tunes DVD set cartoon list up!

    http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Bugs-Bunny-Looney-Tunes-Comedy-Hour-Volume-6/10016 I'm so glad WB is going to put "Now Hear This" on this set! It's one of my all-time favorite Chuck Jones cartoons! I love the visual style and the sound effects. It was also the first LT short to use the...

    Season 39 Sneak Peaks

    Well two third of the ad, Scooby's lines were done by David Beckham wearing a latex Great Dane costume. And don't get me started on J.C. Chasez's stint on impersonating Scooby-Doo in "A Scooby-Doo Valentine." Besides, I liked the impostor Scoobys in "Never Ape an Ape Man" much better :D
