What would be nice is for any dialogue Kermit may have in the Muppets Rock 'n' Roller Coaster, if it's only a few lines, they may be able to get by with using archived audio of Jim Henson's Kermit! Like when they did in that "Bandanana" ad from 2005 (only a year after Disney bought those...

Right. It's definitely a bad news/good news scenario. "The bad news is, MuppetVision 3D is closing down. The good news is, Rock 'n' Roller-Coaster is being re-themed to the Muppets!"

Well, the rumors are sadly true. At Walt Disney World Resort's Disney's Hollywood Studios park, the MuppetVision 3D attraction is going to be closed as part of building a new Monsters Inc.-themed land... but the Muppets are still going to have an attraction at the park! The "Rock 'n' Roller...

(imitating Foghorn Leghorn) "That's an error, son."

I'm partly not surprised this is happening. A lot of "Sesame Street" TV specials and several of the picture books work in a similar way. (There were some "Sesame Street" books that took on such a "magazine" format, like "Big Bird's Busy Book" from 1975, or "The Sesame Street Library/The Sesame...

Indeed. I only found this upload from last year today: This is a cute segment; it kind of reminds me of the 1969 Pink Panther cartoon "Think Before You Pink", the whole thing about someone dealing with an unruly pedestrian crossing signal. The difference is that the signal in the Pink Panther...

That was originally a BBC sound effect! Gateway Records reissued some of those sounds, including on their album you named. "Sesame Street" used quite a few sounds from the BBC library in the 1980s and 1990s. Another one that really stood out to me was in the "Mysterious Theater" installment...

I think this may be ALL the Monsterpiece Theater segments! A pretty impressive collection. It even includes that "American Monster Classics" segment from Season 38. (I wonder if someone at SesameWorkshop was looking at the Muppet Wiki as a guide?!) What's interesting are some of the prints...

When the English version of this was finally uploaded, I was in for a surprise... This Season 13 Sesame Street News segment is likely where they sourced that one recording of Jerry Nelson's announcer spiel to use on subsequent News Flashes. And no, that's not the 1986 "NEWS FLASH" logo at the...

Speaking of lost specials, "Sesame Street in Puerto Rico" has been uploaded... Sure, it's basically a re-edited compilation of the street scenes in the Season 11 "Trip to Puerto Rico" story arc, but it's worth it for the new narration by Big Bird. Also, it's got the elusive 1978 CTW opening...

This was uploaded last June, but I haven't said anything about it here yet... This was most likely the debut of that stock Jerry Nelson announcer spiel recording they'd generally use for the remainder of Sesame Street News's run, back in Season 13. Given it only aired once more in Season 14...

In June 2021, I was suspended from editing on TV Tropes due to substandard grammar. For two years I would post on their "Get Help With English Here" thread to improve my trope grammar skills, and then in August 2023 my suspension was lifted, as long as for longer examples I test them out in the...

Interesting how they made an English version of this without the opening title card and theme music. (I've seen "Mysterious Theater" on foreign "Sesame Street" co-productions dubbed into the program's native language and similarly lacking the opening and theme music.) I wonder if there were...

My vote goes for "D Duah Duah", or as I call it, "Be My D", as that's what I grew up with as a kid. And yeah, I initially thought Bushman Bill was a little freaky, but it's still a great song, and another instance of the show hiring a professional female vocal group to perform a song for a...

Has anyone seen this yet? It's a 16mm master copy of one of my childhood fears: the Yakity Yakity Yak animation! What's interesting is how the Yak's dialogue is clearly a different set of takes than what was heard on the show.

My mistake; that float was actually retired. But yeah, the way NBC now considers the Radio City Rockettes a bigger attraction in the parade over the floats and balloons is a real shame (like saying "And the rest!") Again, this is why aside from the "Sesame Street" float and a couple other parts...

Not surprisingly, NBC's telecast of the parade skipped a few floats, including the Blue's Clues And You one. Not too surprising, given they now prioritize all the Broadway performances and the Radio City Rockettes over the floats and balloons, even the new ones. (After announcing all the musical...

Of course, I loved seeing Julia in the float with her noise-cancelling headset, along with the brief bit of Oscar refusing to sing along. I also liked the song, since I do enjoy the Nutcracker suite. The way they sung "Best Christmas Ever" to the tune of the Nutcracker Overture reminded me of...

I just saw a quick glimpse of the "Sesame Street" float before the "Back to the Future" performance. It shouldn't be long now! Of course, up until now, I watched much of the parade on CBS, where they focus more on the actual parade and balloons and floats, and then when it's nearly time for the...

When I read the stories, I hear Papa Bear's 1980s voice (Brian Cummings) alongside Mama Bear's 2000s voice. They seem to fit the characters the best, to me that is. Funny enough, I seem to have done more YouTube Poops of the 2000s series than the 1980s series. Also, after Southern Star was...
