    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Sometimes a page will have an image that's not used on any episode pages (though that's normally for songs or things that have their own page as opposed to a page listing segments). The wiki finally has images of a family I heard of called the Polka Dot Family. I read about them on the season...

    Little things we've noticed

    For the Sesame Street version of "Mahna Mahna", Bip Bipodotta (if we want to consider him that character for the song) looked and sounded less like Mahna Mahna than he would in all future appearances. The Sesame version came first, just a little before the more famous rendition of the routine...

    Nick at Nite Thread

    For years I have seen a commercial for a special called The Nick at Nite Do it Yourself Sitcom Search (actually, the promo was for a rebroadcast, as it had quotes from critics), hadn't actually found the special online, I wondered if maybe it had an article on Lost Media Wiki (as far as I can...

    HBO Max removes nearly 200 Sesame Street episodes, modern specials, and the Not-Too-Late Show with Elmo

    Huh. I thought Speedy was on there. I guess I’m conflating that with the fact that many have recently been restored and airing on ME-TV.

    Top ten scenes from Brewster's Millions (1985): 1. The video will 2. Brewster goes to a stamp shop 3. Brewster hires a taxi driver 4. Brewster's staff makes a collection to save him from debt 5. Brewster sees his money at the bank 6. Brewster punches Warren 7. Spike tells a player on the...

    HBO Max removes nearly 200 Sesame Street episodes, modern specials, and the Not-Too-Late Show with Elmo

    Another good punchline would be "the same episodes can/will be viewed there, right?"

    Sesame Workshop/Shout! Factory Deal

    Shout! just announced on its Facebook page (haven’t seen a Wiki page yet) a November release called My Favorite Holidays. Considering there’s been so many episodes (not specials) in the last few years involving specific holidays, this is a good idea. and I hope it has both the News segments...

    HBO Max removes nearly 200 Sesame Street episodes, modern specials, and the Not-Too-Late Show with Elmo

    Somebody on the Toughpigs forum said, not surprisingly, that they are phasing out HBO Max. If HBO Max discontinues, I wonder if Sesame Street will go to the Discovery app or what.

    Little things we've noticed

    Recently, it was discovered that the little monster in the first season “here and there” sketch was named Billy. Until recently, he had been listed on the wiki as Baby Monster. the name Billy was also used for the little monster in the remake with Grover and Herry. I guess maybe that’s why he...

    Why was Bedtime Stories and Songs edited?

    So that’s seasons 16 and 18. Long before his last new appearance (though he sort of banged his head in a season 22 episode). I had figured the complaints and decision to drop him came in season 29, the last to show his old segments (and Sesame Street Unpaved said he was no longer on the show)...

    Why was Bedtime Stories and Songs edited?

    On the subject, did Don Music ever bang his head in street scenes (okay, I think he did when Hooper's Store opened)? Seems like in nearly all the ones I know of, he does not bang his head. It's as if that running gag was actually dropped long before Richard Hunt died, even if they continued...

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Yes. The article mentions the first and last episodes to include it. It has appeared in 12 episodes. Clicking "what links here" on the first image can lead to "what links here" and a list of all episodes it was in (you have to be signed in to Muppet Wiki to see "what links here" for the image).

    HBO Max removes nearly 200 Sesame Street episodes, modern specials, and the Not-Too-Late Show with Elmo

    I had been tempted to subscribe to HBO Max and never did (and when I heard about down things leaving the services, I was considering doing the free trial at least and watch as many classic episodes as possible). I had actually resisted watching street scenes that were unavailable until HBO Max...

    Shortened Muppet Show intro

    And it doesn't say what network it was? My guess would be Odyssey, I hear they cut a lot for time.

    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    Yeah, that wasn’t particularly high on my wishlist of rare clips to see (not even for proto-Monotones), so I am surprised by how much I liked it.

    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    I recently found that somebody uploaded a ton of rare clips from the first two seasons. I keep forgetting the name of the channel, but he’s uploaded such clips as the original Up and Down, the full original Rubber Duckie, Bob reading a story about the letter F, one of the Rufus appearances, Can...

    It's me Muppet Baby Fozzie and Scooter

    Do you do virtual con appearances like GalaxyCon Live (off-hand I don't know what other cons do virtual Q&As, I think Comic Con does)?

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    The wiki has images from episode 1411. Looking at the image for the closing scene, where Bruno transports a grouch who is not Oscar, is surprising. I thought it'd be the usual set-up - Bruno with trash can, but a different grouch (and Brian Meehl performing Bruno as a result.... or could they...

    Sesame Street Classics HBO Max Rollouts

    There haven’t been that many times when more classic episodes have been added (seems like at least once a year) and April was only a few months ago.

    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    Somehow, the Sesame Street News segment where Dr. Noble Price invents slushabouts has been online since February, and I had not known until this week. Also, Muppet Wiki has uploaded the Tinkly Table sketch to its social media pages (right now I am struggling with sharing the link), which...
