It’s a shame episode 361 is among the lost episodes. That one does get talked about a lot in books and interviews and such. I was surprised to see that Big Bird becoming convinced Snuffy is imaginary came so soon after his debut, I would have thought it’d come a few years later at earliest. I...

Episode 0084 - which has Oscar the Grouch performed by Jim Henson instead of Caroll Spinney. https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_0084 Back In 2003, somebody on the Toughpigs forum got in contact with Karen Falk, who confirmed that Caroll Spinney was sick for a few episodes so Daniel Segren...

i think Sherry Netherland is back simply because the puppet happens to still be in a good working condition. oddly, while I did watch the show a lot around season 25, I don’t really remember her well.* and I had recorded a few episodes that heavily featured her, so I don’t know what it is...

I feel like Bob - the one I always viewed as "the nice one"- was just as bad as Olivia. I feel his disbelief in episode 2096 has a somewhat sinister quality, though he was one of the first to really apologize when they did see them. In episode 1966 he states that he wanted to believe but just...

I saw some discussion on either the Toughpigs or Muppet Wiki forums that this album is also available on CD as a Barnes and Noble exclusive (with two extra songs).

Yes. Have they still shown her work in the last few years? Caroll Spinney just retired last year and his last vocal performances as Big Bird and Oscar have not yet aired, so they’re still showing his performances. Who knows how long they will continue to be repeated in the show? I can’t...

Episode 44 - featuring Rufus, we know that the monster who wants to move in with Oscar is Cookie Monster, and we know which episode has the "Hey Big Bird!" song. https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_0044

Who Framed Roger Rabbit is a great movie. One thing that confused me was the fact that it had the Touchstone logo instead of the Disney logo, as I had associated Roger Rabbit with Disney. At the time I did not know that Touchstone was a Disney property. I’m guessing that they didn’t want to...

There’s this one Garfield comic strip I’m trying to figure out the punchline on. It was reprinted into the book Garfield Rolls On, and was part of an arc where Garfield and Jon visit Jon’s family. The strip is dated September 1, 1984. in the strip, Jon says to Garfield “I’m worried. My...

I've seen an old article from when Sesame Workshop was making digital copies of all its episodes, it was said that whenever a new video format was introduced, they'd convert their old copies to that format. Makes me wonder when they started making new copies of episodes to preserve them. Of...

Something I thought might be worth talking about (though with it's list-like nature might be limiting): Character recasts whose previous performers performances continued to air on the show after the recasts. I'm not talking ones that have been released on home video (whether it's a release for...

I must have missed it.

I think the best chances of the episodes being found is through raw footage than the other possibilities. Of course it doesn’t look like there’s many inserts that only appear in these (and they probably have separate copies of the inserts, outside of the episode master tapes). I was going to...

Has the wiki uncovered the original near and far with Grover in English yet? For years a number of sites have mentioned that Jim Henson performed Grover in that one, I've seen it mentioned on the wiki (can't remember whether I put in that info, back in the days when unofficial sites were...

Really? Because there are a lot of debuts that haven’t been seen in years. Sesame Workshop hasn’t put out the debuts of Uncle Wally, Mr. Handford, Buffy, Biff and Sully, Gina, Placedo Flamingo, Barkley, or Irvine.

Wow, most of those lost episodes come from the second and third seasons (I counted 20 from season 2, 30 from season 3). And so many back-to-back (or close enough to it) episodes. at first I thought it looked like none of the lost episodes are particularly notable, but then I noticed some that...

There's a lot of first season segments that, before the wiki got trusted sources and video copies, were only available in other languages, many of them I've had trouble keeping track as to whether the wiki has English copies. But I'd like to chime in that most Professor Hastings segments are...

Last night I dreamt I walked into a store and saw a new line of Muppet action figures, without knowing there was a new figure line. The toys looked a little taller than the Palisades toys, and the only accessories included was a head of the character, some of the having separate pieces to put...

There's the one where Sherlock Hemlock solves the mystery of who took Ernie's cookies (obviously, it was Cookie Monster). And there's The Leslie Mostly Show segments with Cookie Monster and Kermit the Frog as guests. Lefty the Salesman selling Herry Monster a bag (I think, I've seen an...

That seems to be the case with quite a few segments. Especially some season 11 segments. Sometimes I wonder if there should be a wiki page for segments known to have been taped during one season but held over a year or later.
