I wonder if we've seen the last of an official home video/online release of The Electric Company (well, there are plenty of segments without him, he was only in the first season). Though as far as I know, Old School Vol. 1 hasn't been recalled and episodes with him haven't been removed or edited...

I know that the CTW Archives program guides are written and put out before the final edits of the episodes, but I've found another instance where something I was intrigued by in the program guide ended up not appearing in the final aired version: The script for episode 1441 mentioned a segment...

I don't think those are really considered controversial (aside from confusion). Maybe if it were titled "Sesame Rarities Collection" I'd have listed some (though my intent was to imply it has some rare segments that might not be particularly controversial as much as they failed at testing...

In another thread, there was some talk about April Fools Day being killed a bit because so many people expect April Fools jokes and posts these days. Which gets me thinking something I've occasionally had on my mind in the last few years: would it be better if, instead of celebrating April...

It was a toss-up between this idea for a concept I had ended up bringing up in the 50th anniversary thread that would be similar to "Best of Friends" but would focus on the Muppets who have been on the show since the first season. As I was writing this, I almost considered using the term...

As much as I knew this was a joke, I'd say that if STX/Henson were willing and able to make a sequel in spite of the disastrous box office performance (and risk losing money on a sequel to a movie that lost money), then that would be awesome (as long as the companies could survive if it flops...

Shout! just posted on their Facebook page that their first real collectors-marketed Sesame Street release is coming in August, and is called "Sesame Street's Most Controversial Moments". The post: We at Shout! Factory are pleased to announce the release of our first Sesame Street DVD to be...

It's been announced that there will be a new series of books called "Henson Performers Series", focusing on Muppet performers other than Jim Henson. From the press release by Ballentine Books: "Over the years, there have been many biographical books on Jim Henson, Muppet performer and...

I was going to play along and "mistakenly" think you meant they'd all be online by the end of today.

It's been announced that a brand-new Fraggle Rock series is in production and is set to premier in 2020. It will feature a mix of new and old characters, and taking place after the original series wrapped up. The debut episode will find the Fraggles and Gorgs at odds against each other again...

I'd say that one is a bit different, though. They say that he keeps shaving his head, but it doesn't seem like they're trying to reference the other actors or that he used to have hair.

I meant to say that and wrote in the wrong bonus special. But it was televised, I have a feeling all of the Macy's parades still exist so getting to see the Muppets segment of that parade would be a cool thing to clear the rights to (of course that same one had Kevin Clash's first performance...

I saw announced on Oh My Disney that there's plans for an official celebration of The Muppet Movie's 40th anniversary. Plans for the celebration will include: New home video release for the 40th anniversary, on DVD, Blu-ray, and Ultra 4K HD. DVD will have the same bonus features as current...

Top ten pages I thought about creating (if only as sandbox) for Muppet Wiki (most of them Sesame Street pages). 10. Kermit and Grover sketches (long ago I thought it'd be redundant with the "Kermit at Home Sketches" page, which lists any sketch with Kermit at his home, not just with Grover, but...

I was watching the songs collection video, and they actually refer to the season 2 version of Rubber Duckie as coming from season 2! How about that? But then they refer to Put Down the Duckie as being from season 24. I saw somebody point that out in the comments, I was expecting it to be the...

I never knew that. I always figured she had her own home on Sesame Street.

Ladies and gentlemen, the wiki now has a full guide for the episode. We now have context! https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_1553 Interesting how this episode has Maria's cousin Mercedes mentioned as visiting her, a season before we meet her (or does she appear in some season 12...

I saw in the edit history it said "you read that first scene right", and I can't really determine what the surprise is. That Linda is angry?

Well, while the episode page itself doesn't have any info yet, I've seen a few places on the wiki that confirm that this was in episode 1553. I thought I saw 1557 on the clapboard in the behind the scenes footage, though the shot in question isn't really a good enough shot to make out much of...

Looking at the Muppet Wiki pages (which are "final aired versions", though sometimes things that happen in the scripted scenes end up differently), episode 1257 is Telly's only appearance in that form. However, the CTW Archives program guide for episode 1277 mentions a scene with Bob, Telly, and...
