    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    Well, you can kiss those comments on the Muppet and Sesame Street videos goodbye because YouTube just rolled out their COPPA restrictions, and now virtually every Muppet and Sesame Street video have all their comments turned off. Of course, for some of you that upload Muppet and Sesame Street...

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

    Exactly! They had something going for them when they did all those short online videos back in the late 2000s. In my opinion, that Bohemian Rhapsody music video was the closest they ever came to recapturing the Jim Henson-era of the Muppets. I don't know why they stopped doing them (and I am...

    Remembering Caroll Spinney (December 26, 1933-December 8, 2019)

    I was afraid this was going to come sooner or later. How heartbreaking, but at least he lived a good life delighting millions of children across the globe for over 50 years. It seems fitting that his last public appearance would be the lighting of the Empire State Building to mark the show's...

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    I don't think you were "losing your cool," I think you had every right to be frustrated. If what they told you was true, it would definitely throw off a lot of people that would have looked forward to something like this. This was not a matter of "demanding too much instead of being grateful for...

    Sesame Street "Lost and Found" at the Museum of the Moving Image with Rosemarie Truglio and Norman Stiles November 24, 2019

    Well, I hope you all have fun. I expect reactions to range from "Well, that was underwhelming." to "I traveled all the way to New York for THIS?!?"

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street YouTube marathon Friday November 15, 2019

    Well, of course it's impossible, especially when 60 of them are missing.

    Video: Sesame Street meets the Wiggles

    Yeah, well I didn't think they were still relevant enough to do a crossover with Sesame Street, in the year 2019. It's kind of the equivalent of if they were to do a crossover with Barney. Sure, it would be long overdue, but I mean, who's asking for it?

    Oh, I guess they're still a thing (for some reason).

    Sesame Street to host 12-hour episode marathon on YouTube on Friday November 15, 2019

    Well, twelve episodes is very minuscule compared to the over 4,500 episodes that have been produced over the years. I imagine that it will likely consist of the first episode, some season premieres, the Mr. Hooper episode, the Snuffy reveal episode, the hurricane episode, and the Julia debut...

    Sesame Street Special "Sesame Street's 50th Anniversary Celebration"

    And I'm pretty sure tampering with street signs is illegal, LOL.

    Sesame Street Special "Sesame Street's 50th Anniversary Celebration"

    I absolutely loved the special. I thought it was very well-done. It was nice seeing the classic human and Muppet characters. Seeing Kermit on the street again was such a joy (even if I'm not too crazy about Matt Vogel's Kermit). I did love the subtle references, particularly Carroll Spinney's...

    The Empire State Building lights up for Sesame Street's 50th anniversary

    Man, seeing Carroll Spinney in his current state of health is just sad. I mean, I'm happy he was able to come out for this commemoration, but it's just so sad seeing him like this. You have to wonder just how much longer he has until the inevitable happens.

    "Sesame Street's 50th Anniversary Celebration" special to air November 9 on HBO and November 17 on PBS

    I'll probably tune into this special myself. I tuned to the last anniversary special they did, so it makes sense I see this one, too. So far, this doesn't look as though that they will be making one singular red monster... I mean, character as the focus of the special. They definitely went in...

    Sesame Street Season 50 News and Rumors

    This newly-published article from the NY Post is pretty interesting. I don't know if any of you had ever seen the ‘No hablo español’ sign in Hooper's Store during the early seasons that is cited in this article...

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Well, I'm only just speculating. Maybe the tapes were just misplaced by an employee or something. I would imagine it's not easy to keep track of the thousands of hours of footage that have been taped in the last 50 years. Not just the master tapes of the more than 4,500 episodes, but also of the...

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    One thing rather interesting to note is that the majority of these missing episodes were from the show's first three seasons, produced between 1969-1972, which would account for over 400 episodes, so that's about 7.1% of those over 400 episodes missing. Perhaps these were the unlucky ones to be...

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Well, I guess that gives something new for the Lost Media Wiki people to start speculating over and make videos about.

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Well, I'm not sure if that is something that would have frightened me as a kid, and to be fair, I'm sure more people remember the "I" segment than the tomato one since it aired a lot more.
