    Your Thoughts: Country Favorite Songs DVD

    I love "There's a Hole in the Bucket"- I used to see that one all the time as a kid on Sesame Street. I used to have it about memorized! I've yet to find the actual sketch online, but here's a link to the lyrics and a brief midi version of the song if anyone's interested...

    Sketches and Songs on Sesame Street videos

    A few comments on "Do the Alphabet" I just got around to watching the "Do the Alphabet" video the other night. It's been covered on here already, so I won't go into great detail, but I thought I'd comment a bit about it. I appreciated seeing some classic stuff in there- mainly the "J Friends"...

    Start-to-Read this review and then finish! This is a review of the 1991 Sesame Street 'Start-to-Read' video called 'Don't Cry, Big Bird and Other Stories'. It has a run time of approximately 25 minutes. This is a Random House and Praxis Media production. The title screen says that it features...

    :attitude: : Well, I for one find this to be an outrage! What do you mean by posting this frivolous thread in the Classic Muppets forum? This clearly belongs in the Games thread where all those other weirdos here hang around and waste their time! This forum should be dedicated to more...

    does anybody know about this Sesame Street parody?

    I think this was a parody Adam Sandler did on Saturday Night Live some years ago...at least that's what I've read online- but I don't know if that's really right or not either.:smirk:

    Wanted: Cartoons

    Unless I'm mistaken and it is indeed censored (but I'm guessing it isn't since it contains a curse word) The Complete Uncensored Private Snafu cartoon short is included on the Ultimate Superman Collector's DVD set as a bonus. It's a bonus on the "You Will Believe: The Cinematic Saga of...

    Muppet Babies comic books

    Harvey Comics published the Muppet Babies comics for 5 issues and a Muppet Babies Big Book in 1992. And of course, Marvel had the first run back in 1985-1986 under its Star imprint. You can buy most of the back issues from milehighcomics.com...

    new review Here's my review of "A New Baby in My House" (a 1994 "My Sesame Street Home Video" release-according to the VHS box, though actual end credits list copyright as 1993. Run time of 30 minutes.) After the good old CTW logo and Cookie Monster eating the Sesame Street video logo...

    Truth commercial: Muppets & smoking

    I don't think it was that big of a deal. Tobacco is bad for you and it will kill you. Don't do it. I think that was the main message. They didn't really attack the Muppets- just pointed out that ANY puppet is appealing to kids (well, I guess unless it's hideously ugly and creepy looking or...

    SS's Gone Country! (new Sesame Street DVD)

    Okay, I suppose that's true. And maybe it is just 20 country songs from Sesame Street. But there still might be room for some Western sketches- and like it was said before, maybe they'll be included as bonuses. That would be cool. Well, I guess we'll know for sure in about another month...

    Sketches and Songs on Sesame Street videos

    Regarding the "Ready for School" DVD that is coming out this summer, I noticed on Amazon that it is listed as being 60 minutes long. The "Getting Ready For School" video is only 30 minutes long, so more than likely this DVD is a totally new project.

    SS's Gone Country! (new Sesame Street DVD)

    Yes, but country songs and Western moments seem to go together pretty well- they have an hour to fill up, so it seems like this might be a good place to showcase some of those scenes. (Since I really don't know if it would be all songs anyway- usually most Sesame Street videos also include some...

    Let the Games begin (with a new review!) Sesame Street video- "Slimey's World Games" (1996 video- 30 minutes run time) (Back of VHS cover has a "Sesame Street Games" logo on it, featuring Big Bird, Elmo and Cookie Monster. And it's nice to see Oscar and Slimey prominent on the VHS cover. In...

    Sketches and Songs on Sesame Street videos

    No, Elmo is definitely not on "Getting Ready for School"- Believe me, even if I'd just noticed him as a character in the background somewhere, I probably would have mentioned him. But yeah, if this is a DVD version of this 1987 video, then they're probably just using Elmo as a selling point...

    SS's Gone Country! (new Sesame Street DVD)

    "When One Comes To Town"- I think that was the other song Johnny Cash did on Sesame Street- and it'd be good to see that on here too. "Readers of the Open Range" is a great song- I'd vote for that one too. And I love the "Cowboy X" cartoon! Yippee!:) Hey, Forgetful Jones did sing at...

    Sketches and Songs on Sesame Street videos

    Yeah- I keep thinking of that "School in the Afternoon" sketch (the one that parodied soap operas), but I'm not sure if that was made before 1987 or not. I'm pretty sure the Caveman First Day of School could've been included though. Oh well- there's still a pretty nice selection for what we...
