    Songs you thought were the wrong segment

    Have there ever been any segments you saw way when you were young, then didn't see them for a long time, forgot the lyrics, and then when either hearing a song on an album or hearing people mention a song online, you mistakenly thought one of those songs was a segment in question? There's...

    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    It seems like Sesame Workshop has started a Sesame Street Fan Channel. I have actually noticed this for a few weeks. Classic clips that had been online for years must have been transferred over (based on when it says the clips were added), I did not know that was possible. Looks like classic...

    Questions about anything

    On the Sirius channel 80s on 8, between songs they often have an announcement that Mark Goodman can’t be in on that day. Not exactly a new thing, but lately I feel like I hear these skits all the time. it makes me wonder - does Mark Goodman DJ on 80s on 8? Is there some significance to these bits?

    The "You know what?" thread

    Long ago, I noticed in the first two episodes of Pee-wee's Playhouse, each of the supporting humans gets a scene throughout the episode, and then most of them come back for the final scene (I guess in the second episode they're back a little bit longer at the end). Then the fourht episode is a...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    I dreamt that I went to a bookstore and saw that Frank Oz wrote a book. At first I thought it was an autobiography, but it turned out to be a general book about the film industry, with profiles and info on a number of talents, both associated and not associated with Oz. I found big profiles on...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    The other night I dreamt I was watching a scene with Timmy Monster, and he opened his mouth so wide that I could see a smaller monster head inside his mouth. I wondered if that had always been there and I just hadn't noticed. I also wondered, since the performers look out a hole in his mouth, if...

    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    I've found a few recently uploaded clips of Biff and Sully that I had not seen before. I am liking the song Working Together. It sounds like it could have made a good theme song for an '80s sitcom. There's also Song of the Tools. Very catchy. It's a shame this one was not released on an...

    The "You know what?" thread

    In the Animaniacs episode "Potty Emergency", Wakko gets a toilet out of a sack that carried all sorts of larger-than-the-sack items, and then his problem is having a private place to use the potty. Considering how much he could fit in the sack, couldn't Wakko have gotten privacy just by using...

    The Old Cartoon Network Thread

    I was thinking about the old "Boo Boo Baba Dee Dee" commercial..... Boo Boo Baba Dee Dee ☆Great Quality☆ - YouTube I had thought the singing voices were just voices..... But now it hits me that maybe those were supposed to be Cartoon Network characters singing (and we don't see who is...

    Sesame Workshop/Shout! Factory Deal

    The next release, coming August 18, is Elmo and Abby's Amazing Adventures. Looks like it's primarily a release of animated segments, along with some live action segments. Considering this and the recent Elmo and Tango release, I have a feeling that most upcoming Sesame Street video releases...

    The Muppets Mayhem Episode 3 - Track 3: Exile on Main Street

    I was confused at first. I am not familiar with her and thought she was Nora, and wondered how Lips could have been her babysitter when it seemed she did not know the band until the series.

    The Muppets Mayhem Episode 2 - Track 2: True Colors

    I really like Janice’s rendition of “True Colors”. Seems like the first two episodes are the only ones with titles of songs that the band sings on the show. It would have been nice if they worked in a little nod to Fozzie getting emotional over “True Colors”.

    Little things we've noticed

    So various sketches have been given different titles depending on official releases, and people say that titles aren't really important or meant to be "official". Though it seems like each sketch usually has the same title in each script to list it, and there are titles that tend to be sure to...

    Electric Mayhem toy observations

    I've had some recent observations about Electric Mayhem toys over the years. Animal has always been the most popular in merchandise, but recently as I have been thinking about this and researching, I've found that Zoot was merchandised a fair bit back in the Muppet Show days. There was a...

    Sesame Street Season 53 Episode 5326 - Make Music with Bob (Bob McGrath Tribute)

    They didn’t put in an old Bob insert like they did with the Luis tribute episode. I had wondered what fairly recently clip would have been (I thought Walking the Dog, or maybe I Am Your Friend, which was only in one episode). Oh well.

    Questions about anything

    I recently saw Pee-wee's Big Adventure for the first time. Is it known anywhere (besides to those who worked on the film) who dubbed Pee-wee's voice during the movie sequence ("paging Mr. Herman")? I didn't notice any voice credits and last I checked the unreliable Internet Movie Database...

    April Fools: Frank Oz and Dave Goelz to write new book together

    Frank Oz has said that he's thought about not writing an autobiography, sometimes saying that his life isn't that interesting ("I wash the dishes"), and I think he's said that Twitter is a way to post interesting information without writing a book. But I feel a book done this way, with him and...
