    What if Muppets at Walt Disney World had SS characters?

    I started wondering... what if characters from Sesame Street appeared in The Muppets at Walt Disney World? What do you think they should have done? They had previously appeared in A Muppet Family Christmas from a few years earlier, and made cameos in the Muppet movies. Then again, I think this...

    were the test pilots made in 1968?

    We know that there were seven test pilots made before the show premiered. However, I wonder if any or all of the test pilots were made in 1968. After all, all/ most of them failed to test audiences, and it would have been a little bit soon to produce these and produce episodes of the show, not...

    later copyrights on songs

    I have noticed that on albums featuring Sesame Street songs from the first season, the songs usually have a 1970 copyright, instead of a 1969 copyright. Does it take awhile for a Sesame Street song to be copyrighted, or are the first season songs that do get 1970 copyrights songs that were first...

    did they eventually stop showing bein' green?

    I read at Wikpedia that in the late 1980s, Sesame Street's researchers discovered that its test audiences failed to realise that Kermit was happy with being green in the song Bein' Green. I'm not sure how true this fact is (I've found the fact at Wikpedia, not Muppet Wiki), but I am wondering if...

    Kermit outdoors and in full form in songs

    Has anybody else noticed that in almost all of the songs that Kermit has sung on Sesame Street, the songs took place outdoors and Kermit was shown in a full-body form (his legs are seen). Full-body shots of Kermit appeared in all three Sesame Street versions of Bein' Green, The Frogs in the...

    what if there were more Gorgs?

    On Fraggle Rock, there were only three Gorgs seen. Wouldn't it have been cool if more were seen, at least occassionally? It would have probably been expensive to build full-body Gorgs who only appeared once, but I wonder, if more Gorgs appeared, if there would have been Gorgs who were...

    Doc's name

    Was Doc ever mentioned by name on Fraggle Rock, outside of being listed in the closing credits? It's been a long time since I've seen Change of Address, where he revealed his real name, and I can't remember if he also mentioned his nickname (could he have said somethign like "My name is Jerome...

    How about a 1980's Old School set?

    With all of the excitemtn about the upcomming Old School set, I was wondering how you all would feel about having a set of Sesame Street episodes from the 1980s? After all, I feel just as nostalgic whenever I see Sesame Street productions from the 1980s as I do when I see stuff from 1969 and the...

    Sesame Street Bathtime Fun

    Enjoy this script, which I think would make a good Sesame Street video. (the title sequence shows an animated bathtub, with a bubble that has the title inside the bubble. Big Bird's voice can be heard, saying "Sesame Street Bathtime Fun") (the scene begins with Abby Cadabby on the...

    In The Quiet of the Evening

    Okay, I don't ever have any memory of hearing this song, but I am wondering if "In the Quiet of the Evening" is a Sesame Street parody of "In the Middle of the Night". Both titles are similar, with "Middle" replaced with "Quiet" and "Night" replaced with "Evening" (and evening and night are both...

    Monster Family

    According to Caroll Spinneys autobiography, Elmo first appeared on Sesame Street during one of the first few years, and was known as Baby Monster. His book also mentions that he was part of the Monster Family, and after the Monster Family stopped appearing in new material, he was put in storage...

    Sesame Street Unpaved's due credit to animators and filmmakers

    In the Muppet Central review of Sesame Street Unpaved (the second review shown on the page), it mentions that Sesame Street Unpaved does give due credit to the various filmmakers and animators who have contributed to the show. What I would like to know is... where? Though it does have some...

    question about foriegn Sesame Street

    I have been wondering lately. Have any of the non-United States versions of Sesame Street ever had their own anniversary specials or movies? Have any of them had any books similar to Sesame Street Unpaved? Have there ever been any big DVD sets (similar to the upcomming Old School set) for any of...

    Did Kermit and Kevin Clash's books come out?

    I read that Kermit the Frogs book, Look Before You Leap, and Kevin Clashs autobiography, My Life as a Furry Red Monster, were supposed to come out yesterday. I searched my local book store and several other stores (Wal Mart, Meijers, Target) and didn't find copies of either. I also haven't read...

    Did Grover eventually stop slapping Kermit?

    I know that during the early days Grover would often encounter Kermit by slapping him on the back and saying "Hey, Froggy babyyyyyy!!" However, did he eventually stop doing this? I haven't seen too many Kermit and Grover sketches from after the 1970s, but in all of those team-ups, Grover...

    Sesame Street Comic Strip

    I was reading at the Muppet Wiki website, in the page on animator Cliff Roberts, that there was a Sesame Street comic strip. A link is posted, but it leads to an article page that does not exist yet. So I'd like to know if anybody knows anything about the Sesame Street comic strip? I think it...

    Sesame Street Album Idea

    Here is an idea for a Sesame Street album: all of the songs could be ones not sung by Muppets or cast members. I don't know what a good title would be, or if it would sell, but here is a list of possible contents: 1. We're Talking 'Bout the Number One 2. Everybody Sleeps 3. Don't Waste...
