    Which Sesame Street character should get a Greatest hits DVD next?

    Well, it was sort of a joke based on Forgetful Jones' oft-quoted line, "I forgot!";)

    Any Uncle Wally fans?

    According to Muppet Wiki, (http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Uncle_Wally) Uncle Wally brought his pet seal Wolfgang with him to Sesame Street and Wolfgang stayed around even after Uncle Wally had left. I can definitely see Uncle Wally as grandfatherly. I also always saw him as a bit gullible though...

    Any Uncle Wally fans?

    I remember Uncle Wally pretty well (along with Mike, for that matter- as someone else mentioned.) I just remember that he's Bob's uncle and he was there as part of Sesame Street. I can't think of any major times he's prominently been part of an episode, but I feel pretty sure he must have been...

    Muppet Babies DVD Box Sets

    Muppet Babies rules! I grew up with this cartoon in the '80s and though I also watched The Muppet Show and Fraggle Rock (both live action and cartoon versions) and Sesame Street, for that matter- I've always loved Muppet Babies equally. They're all great- and I'd love to see Muppet Babies on...

    For those who like Movie Musicals

    Ha ha- I know. I tend to go a little over the top a lot, I guess. LOL- Like Billy Joel, I don't know why I go to extremes.;) Hmm- haven't seen "Life of Brian" but I've read some about it. I don't get too much into Monty Python-style humor to begin with- I finally made myself watch "Monty...

    For those who like Movie Musicals

    Thanks for the link, frogboy4- that's pretty cool. I mainly know Patti Lupone from "Life Goes On", but I know she's also done some great Broadway work. This is obviously a good example of that.:) Interesting lyrics- wow, maybe this is why Kate Capshaw sang the song in Mandarin Chinese rather...

    For those who like Movie Musicals

    Okay- I realize some of these aren't technically musicals, but I just love the music- and they remind me of musicals in any case. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfFdGbdlyzI ("Day by Day" from Godspell- awesome!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yQ2xqCE2E8 ("Snow" from White Christmas)...

    For those who like Movie Musicals

    As a Christian myself, I think both these films are pretty neat. I haven't seen Jesus Christ Superstar just yet- but I probably will eventually. I have seen Godspell though and found that interesting. It was one of those movie musicals where I didn't know if I should be laughing or offended or...

    Muppets References in Daily Life!

    I don't know if this counts as such, but I've been drinking the generic brand of Dr. Pepper lately. I don't care for Dr. Pepper much, so I actually prefer the generic brand because it doesn't taste quite the same to me. Anyway, I don't know if this particular brand is popular everywhere, and I'm...

    Top Annoying Misnaming People Do

    True- this does make it hard for the adult Muppets fan to maintain things like dignity and respect- lol. But you have to admit that generally people are gonna lump The Muppet Show in with Sesame Street and regard it on that level. It's the same argument as saying the Looney Tunes cartoons were...

    What TV shows are you currently watching?

    I like The Singing Bee- great game show. (I love game shows in general usually- and I definitely like musically-based ones like this. Though it's pretty much the exact same thing as "Don't Forget the Lyrics!"- but I think I liked that show better. And both of them certainly owe a good deal to...

    Ha ha- I particularly love the Beauregard quote- I would definitely quote him. "I'm sorry- I can only take you as far as the lobby.":D

    Hmm- I think I was usually humming "School's Out" on the last day of school.;) And you're an obsessed Muppet fan if you can't hum that song without picturing Thog and the other monsters there pushing around Alice Cooper in a horns and tails suit.
