    Elmo's Healthy Heroes

    Another vid of the scaled down version of EGT. I love that they amped up the originally BORING choreography! :-P http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsHhyBjEsiU

    Elmo's Healthy Heroes

    Hahaha. Well they used MOST of it :p Cookie Monster is definitely in it! I'm not sure what character he's split with. I think it's Oscar...? Purple Honker who was once the medium understudy is now the tall understudy. There is no Orange Honker in the scaled down version. Not sure who the medium...

    Elmo's Healthy Heroes

    Much Much Better! In order for this show to survive, it needs to stay hip, current, fresh and appeal to all the young boys and girls of TODAY, NOT older fans who miss Sesame Street of the 90's. If the Abby-less and Elmo-less Sesame Street of the 80's and 90's was what was still being played on...

    1-2-3 Imagine! with Elmo & Friends

    The Abby performer only plays Roxy for the Camp/Bears scene... just like the Zoe performer did for 123's theater version back in 2004.

    Elmo's Healthy Heroes

    Yep! No Baby Bear at all. Abby's hero name is Glitter Girl!

    This is what the show looks like now... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjtdYDHdmcA

    Quick question

    Right... That's exactly what I said.

    Quick question

    I agree with everything you said. But alas, Sesame Workshop isn't making this show for "us"

    Quick question

    It's not that easy... There's only enough funding for X amount of episodes. And obviously, if they're only gonna produce, let's say, 25 episodes, they're not gonna focus on peripheral, obscure, nearly forgotten about characters. They're gonna focus on the favorites of the target audience, kids...

    Elmo's Healthy Heroes

    this only happened in madrid. everywhere else they used the full "theater" set... sometimes on the international circuit, the venues are so small that they literally have to reduce the size of the stage... thus causing them to re-stage numbers, and cut scenery, props and even characters...

    Rendition of SS theme

    They weren't. The opening theme music you hear in that video was first used for the 1-2-3...Imagine! remount in 2002. Not in the 90s

    Elmo's Healthy Heroes

    All the shows will accommodate Abby now. Just like 123 Imagine replaced Zoe with Abby for this current remount. But VEE makes several changes every time they remount a SSL show, whether it's changing characters, songs, and scenes altogether. The last time they did When "I" Grow Up, there was no...

    1-2-3 Imagine! with Elmo & Friends

    Well this is how they did the cast last time RFA was on the theater circuit: Grover/ Number 1 Elmo Zoe/Gene Telly Rosita Cookie/Oscar Big Bird/ Number 0 Bert Kay Ernie-Kay Baby Bear/Count Understudies: Roxy/Grundgetta/Honker My favorite newer shows are EGT, EMM and ECB! Although WEGU has the...

    It'll come back. Don't worry :)

    Elmo's Healthy Heroes

    10 speaking characters and 3 understudy characters is how every show is done on the theater tour circuit. The change is that instead of having 2 arena tours with 13 speaking characters and 1 theater tour, they're gonna have 3 theater tours. *BUDGET CUTS* It won't last forever, don't worry :) And...

    Elmo's Healthy Heroes

    Just figured I'd start a new thread for the all new SSL show, which actually isn't new at all :-P It's a remount of the Super Grover: Ready For Action! which premiered in 05 It's title changed to simply Ready For Action in late 2007 and it became Elmo : Ready For Action! in early 2008...

    1-2-3 Imagine! with Elmo & Friends

    Told you So :-P They're calling it Elmo's Healthy Heroes http://www.lacrossecenter.com/CurrentEvents.aspx?EID=33 Out of This World was kind of a crappy show. Poorly written. Kinda Boring. I agree they should remount LBF (which I'm certain they would rename... Elmo's Friendship Club)...

    1-2-3 Imagine! with Elmo & Friends

    They're all still there in the Vee Warehouse. Herry isn't a character on SS anymore so I doubt he'll be making an appearance in any SSL shows. But yeah, if they were to update Let's Play School they would have to add Abby, as well as Baby Bear, Rosita, Telly and Zoe. I'm sure they would replace...

    1-2-3 Imagine! with Elmo & Friends

    Not running out of ideas... Just trying to save money in this economy. I mean it makes sense. It cost approx. $3 million to create a new show. You have to factor in set building and paying the writers, musical director, choreographer, director, muppeteer voices and paying for the rights to each...
