    Video: Fred Get Me A Twenty (20) Sketch

    Yes, I remember it too. He kept finding numbers from 11-19 before confronting the gorilla in room number 19. I recall the gorilla at least chasing him around the room before he found the 20 and showed it to the camera. I'd enjoy seeing this one again as well, but so far it remains a "lost" clip...

    Where Are They Now?

    Shari Lewis has passed away, but her daughter Mally Lewis is currently performing with Lamb Chop! You can read about it at her site: http://www.lambchop.tv/ But what happened to Shari’s lamb chop puppet? According to the site below, Shari’s grandson Jamie Hood. . .is sleeping with it...

    In Search of 1980s Sesame Street episode!

    I don't recall the episode you described, but it does sound like a more recent (post-2000) Sesame St. episode about "Cookie Hood." In that one, a monster who looked like Cookie Monster was going around stealing cookies, and everyone of course blamed our hero. Eventually Cookie Hood is caught and...

    More Electric Company Memories

    Me too! There is something that will allow you to watch iTunes video on a regular TV set, but it seems to be a lot of hassle to go through just to watch a few episodes. BillyKal, do you happen to remember if they showed "Sweet Sue at the sweet shop" in the iTunes episodes? That's one I'd...

    American Masters/Charles Schultz

    Yes, I was lucky enough to catch it. It's a great tribute to Schulz. It really gave you some insight into some of the "angst" that helped create many of the characters in Peanuts. It included interviews with many who knew him, including the woman who inspired the "little-red-haired girl." Plus...

    Where Are They Now?

    Google and I get along well. :) Thanks for the compliment! Couldn’t find anything on where the Mr. Potato Head puppet is, but here is a great site for Potato Head data that has a small picture: http://www.mrpotatohead.net/tv/tv.htm For Eureka’s Castle, a search revealed that the topic...

    He-Man and She-Ra voice artists

    Cool list! Thanks for sharing. Being a "Teela" fan, I was saddened to learn that Linda Gary had passed away, but it was interesting to read about her career in the site below: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linda_Gary

    Where Are They Now?

    Very cool! It would have been great to see Kukla & Ollie "live." It's good to know that puppets were on Broadway long before "Avenue Q" came along. Kukla & Ollie & several other Tillstrom puppets also appeared in the "Carpenters At Christmas" special that aired in the 1970s. You can read...

    Where Are They Now?

    That’s a great question, Fozzie. Here’s what I’ve found so far: According to the site below, many of the Mr. Rogers “Neighborhood of Make Believe” puppets are “on permanent loan” to the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh. http://www.library.pitt.edu/libraries/is/enroom/mrrogers/mrrogrs.htm...

    Nope, but that is definitely one I'd like to get! I have some memories of watching it WAY back in the day. http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Out_to_Lunch

    Who has a Blog?

    I've been keeping a blog for a while now, although my work schedule has made it next to impossible to find the time to post. This being a grown-up can really be a drag. :) But I do enjoy posting things once in a while and you can read through my archives to see some of the stuff I've written...

    Lucy on the street

    Although Sesame St. has had many great guest stars, very few of the "old-time" TV stars from the early days of TV have appeared on it. The one big exception is Sid Caesar, who appeared in a few clips. To my knowledge, Lucille Ball was never on the show. But here's a clip with Sid Caesar and Big...

    One Small Voice

    Yes, it's a great song! I also enjoy the original version from the show most of all. It's sung mostly by Bob's chorus. That particular clip with the song was used in other episodes as well. I recall seeing it as an "insert" clip.

    Help please early Sesame St episode wanted

    You know, I do recall another poster who said that he was able to get some clips that way from Sesame Workshop (I think it was the "I-beam" film, plus a few others, right?). I forget the price he paid, but he said he did get a handful of skits. Interesting . . . it's theoretically possible to...

    Today is Epcot's Birthday!

    Yay, Epcot! My family and I were lucky enough to visit there in 1986, and got to see it in just about its "original" state. It's worth a visit if you can. Favorite attractions include "Spaceship Earth", "Living Seas", "Journey into Imagination", "Universe of Energy" (that one might not be there...

    Not Enough Classic Clips

    An important aspect of the show is how varied it really is (or was!). If you see something you don't like, come back in five minutes, and you'll see something totally different. Even though every show had the same elements (street scenes, cartoons, etc.), they were arranged in such a way as to...

    Re-post: 'Snippets' from Sesame Street (1975-1981?)

    First off, here is the "Peligro" clip! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=010AE1s1-c0 I like the "Flying" song as well. It was featured on an episode of "Sesame Street Unpaved" and it is also featured in this clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hg1v-E9fRso I do remember the "Fred finds...

    Help Finding Classic Episodes

    I'm guessing that sled scene was from the original "Very Special Sesame Street Christmas" special that aired on network TV in the early 1970s. Does that sound right? I don't have a copy, but some video traders do, so you may be able to get a copy of that. Let us know & maybe one of us can help...

    Internet DVD scalpers...

    I missed the chance to buy "Snow White" when it was released on DVD a few years ago. Today, the price of an official "Snow White" DVD is usually way more than it was originally selling for. So people certainly are taking advantage of the fact that it's so hard to find. Frankly, although I'd like...

    Not Enough Classic Clips

    Is this Bert singing "Have you ever looked at a paperclip?" or is it the really old one with Ernie trying to get Bert angry by telling him that he lost Bert's paperclip collection? I'd be impressed if they showed that one! Or is it a totally different one?
