    Video: 80's Sesame Street Music Mashup Parodies

    I loved it a lot! As a lover of 1980s music (maybe because I was born in 1988), it was lots of fun. And of course, I still remember those great 80s-style original Sesame Street songs, like "Wet Paint," "Danger's No Stranger," "Healthy Food" and "The Word is No."

    Steve Whitmire has left the Muppets, Matt Vogel to continue as Kermit

    Well, I did it. A vlog with me in-character as Disney's Big Bad Wolf talking about the situation...

    Steve Whitmire has left the Muppets, Matt Vogel to continue as Kermit

    Yes, it's 10:39 PM Eastern, and still no sign of it! Maybe Disney is hesitant to upload it because of it being the first time Matt Vogel performed Kermit?

    Steve Whitmire has left the Muppets, Matt Vogel to continue as Kermit

    Makes sense; I suppose we can say Jim Henson was like the Disney of puppetry, while Sid and Marty Krofft were like the Hanna-Barbera of puppetry!

    Steve Whitmire has left the Muppets, Matt Vogel to continue as Kermit

    I do wish Disney was still doing 2D hand-drawn animation, even if they just limit it to classic-style shorts for the time being; they'd still look great. (After all, Disney started out with shorts.) "The Princess and the Frog" wasn't as big a hit Disney hoped (but it was definitely more...

    Miss Muffet skit narrated by Gina

    Another thread bump! I found the sketch in Spanish, on an episode of "Barrio Sesamo." It's at 12:04 - 14:28... I also learned according to Muppet Wiki it's referred to as Little Miss Muffet: "The Continuing Story," and that Kathy Mullen performed Little Miss Muffet while Camille Bonora was the...

    Steve Whitmire has left the Muppets, Matt Vogel to continue as Kermit

    Just think of it being like if Jerry Nelson performed Kermit! :zany:

    Steve Whitmire has left the Muppets, Matt Vogel to continue as Kermit

    That wouldn't surprise me, as David Rudman has taken over many of Richard Hunt's characters. (I'd like to see him take on Forgetful Jones some day!) Though I think Rickey Boyd could make a good Beaker. Listen to his performance as Bag in the short-lived "Big Bag" TV series from the 90s; the...

    Steve Whitmire has left the Muppets, Matt Vogel to continue as Kermit

    Wow, Matt Vogel seems to take over a LOT of Muppets. Like Big Bird, Count von Count, Sweetums, Floyd Pepper, Lew Zealand... Though I think the best job he's done taking over an existing Muppet character would have to be Uncle Deadly, also a former Jerry Nelson character. But besides that, if...

    Soundtrack to "The Exciting Adventures of Super Grover" video!

    The above link is outdated, so here's an updated version with an additional cue found!

    Soundtrack to "The Exciting Adventures of Super Grover" video!

    It's ALMOST the complete soundtrack, but I have now been able to locate nearly all of the background music cues from the 1985 Golden Book Video story "The Exciting Adventures of Super Grover" from "Five Sesame Street Stories", a video I grew up watching as a kid. All of the music here comes from...

    Sesame Street Season 47 Episode 4715 - Meet Julia

    The episode didn't air on WGBH-2 today! Instead it was a rerun of "Enthusiastic Penelope Penguin!" :( Oh well, off to YouTube! Now that I saw it, I really enjoyed the main street story a lot. I'm going to really like Julia.

    April Fools: "Sesame Street" to drop ALL human cast members!

    I just heard from SesameWorkshop that for Season 50, which will be the really big anniversary season of the show, they will be getting rid of any and all human cast members of "Sesame Street," so that the live-action portions will be all Muppets! The exceptions will be guest stars, a few kids...

    Where are the older humans?

    That really sucks they've cut back on the human cast. They even got rid of some of the more newer human characters like Leela! It won't be the same without the human cast I grew up with. Sure, Mr. Hooper and David were already dead when I was watching the show as a tot, but we still had Gordon...

    TV Alert: Sesame Street at Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade

    I saw Herry Monster on the Sesame Street float! Good to see him back in action! Just Elmo and Abby Cadabby were in the nest with Big Bird. They're still the two main Muppet stars it seems, with Big Bird as their sidekick... When they introduced the float, they played an instrumental of the...

    TV Alert: The Muppets at Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade

    That was a fun opening number! I really enjoyed Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem's version of "Twist and Shout," and it was also fun to see Fozzie, Rowlf, Lew Zealand, the Swedish Chef and more. All the rest I'm probably going to watch this year is the "Sesame Street" float in 40 minutes...

    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    Great to see the "Slimey Goes to the Moon" story arc again! Hopefully, SesameWorkshop will compile the street scenes from those episodes all together into a DVD release that shows the entire story!

    Changes that you actually liked

    The only Frank Oz character I recall David Rudman taking over is Cookie Monster. Though initially, Eric Jacobson performed Cookie Monster for a bit before passing the role to Rudman. However, David Rudman DOES have a knack for taking over Richard Hunt's characters, such as Sully, the right head...

    Where are the older humans?

    I had a bad feeling this would eventually happen. Look at most Sesame Street picture books (with a few exceptions) and other pieces of merchandising since the 70s; they mostly only focus on the Muppets. Same with the "Sesame Street Live" shows they've done from 1980 to today; they mostly just...

    Sesame Street shrinks to 30 minutes, new shows will premiere on HBO and PBS nine months later

    I have to agree, the 1998-2001 era of "Sesame Street" was pretty good. Sure, this is when they introduced "Elmo's World," but we still had the classic "magazine"-esque format, and it heavily emphasized the classic songs and featured the classic characters, probably to celebrate the show's 30th...
