    Kermit back on Sesame

    These are all segments from the late 80s/early 90s or earlier. Kermit's song is called "Do Op Hop" and I used to see that all the time as a kid in the late 1980s. And I remember seeing segments with Ernie and his baby cousin, Ernestine. (There was one in particular where he was trying to get...

    Wanted: Avenue Q on DVD

    No, there's been a couple of musicals (i.e. Broadway musicals) released on video. "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" (based somewhat on Genesis 37-50 in The Bible. Pretty sure some liberties taken with Scripture here and there;) Also, there's "Godspell" and "Jesus Christ...

    Sesame Street Books

    Well- I've got the perennial Sesame Street classic!!! "The Monster at the End of This Book" starring lovable, furry old Grover!:) It's quite possibly the best Sesame Street book ever...

    What song can you not get out of your head?

    "Kokomo" by The Beach Boys "Pressing On" by Relient K "Beyond Belief" by Petra "Calling on You" by Stryper I'll also have to admit to most of "The Muppet Christmas Carol" soundtrack (at any time of the year!) and "We Need a Little Christmas" from Muppet Family Christmas "Joyful, Joyful, We...

    how about a Best of Muppet Xmas album?

    A Muppet Christmas song collection could be really cool! I'd love to see songs from "Christmas Eve on Sesame Street" (mainly "True Blue Miracle" and "Keep Christmas With You"- but "Feliz Navidad" and "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" would be awesome too!) And "The Muppet Christmas...

    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!!!! WOO HOO!!!! I've been wanting to see this forever!!!! Here it is- the classic Sesame Street Christmas special you've heard so much about, but probably never seen (but admit it- you've been dying to see it for yourself!) That Emmy-nominated that lost out to...

    Is Baby Bear Jewish?

    Interesting discussion. Of course, many people around the world celebrate Christmas- including both Christians and non-Christians. Of course, Christians put the emphasis on Christ's birth while non-Christians would tend to celebrate a more secularized version of it. In any case, I know...

    Your Thoughts: A Sesame Street Christmas Carol DVD

    It wasn't the same puppet- and it certainly wasn't Jerry Nelson voicing it- BUT I'm definitely counting it as a new incarnation of Sam the Robot- on the video credits he's referred to as iSam- (obviously a take-off from Apple's iMac!) so he's like the Sam the Robot for the modern audience...

    "Elmo's Potty Time" DVD Questions

    Frank Oz is definitely credited on "Elmo's Potty Time"- so yes, the original voice for Grover is on the video.

    Sketches and Songs on Sesame Street videos

    I love that alphabet link you posted too- but I haven't seen it on any of the Sesame Street videos or DVDs I've seen so far. Still, it may be on one I haven't come across yet. Hmm- you've already got "The Best of Kermit"- which is one of my favorites because I love Kermit on Sesame...

    Sketches and Songs on Sesame Street videos

    New Review! This time around, I'm reviewing "Get Up and Dance", a 1997 Sesame Street video- (at least that's what it says on the box. On the video itself, it lists the copyright at 1996.) The run time is about 30 minutes. Plot- It's Radar's (Big Bird's teddy bear) birthday! And Big Bird...

    Sketches and Songs on Sesame Street videos

    Yeah- some bonus clips from Sesame Street definitely would be cool. I was thinking that there aren't too many Christmas-related sketches on Sesame Street- but you've compiled a pretty nice list there. Hmmm- I don't think I've seen the News Flash about waiting up for Santa Claus. That'd be...

    Walmart exclusive DVDs (were we aware of these?)

    From what I've seen and to the best of my knowledge, all three of them are actual episodes of Sesame Street, exactly as they aired on PBS.:)

    Sketches and Songs on Sesame Street videos

    Well, of the two "Kids' Guide to Life" videos I've seen (Learning to Share and Telling the Truth) - Learning to Share definitely seems to have a better range of classic songs and sketches. I would still like to track down the "Big Bird Gets Lost" video at some point and see that one for...
