    Did Alistare Cookie's Hosting Room Change?

    In Muppet Wiki's page for Monsterpiece Theater, it is said that the room where Alistar Cookie hosted changed sometime in the 1990s. Is this true? I've been watching some early Monsterpeice Theater segments, as well as some 1990s segments, and I can't really tell. In the 1980s the room looked a...
