Than I don't know what happened.

I'm really sorry Brian Henson gave you a bad impression. He probably didn't know you were one of the puppeteers just because, he wasn't the one who hired the puppeteers. He was kind enough to sign my copy of Jim Henson the Biography when I met him at DragonCon.

I forgot to say this, but when my dad mentioned to Roscoe that we ran into Steve that day, he said that he, Bob and Emilio had dinner with Steve the previous night and talked about possibly including them in his own projects. So that's cool! Anyway, here's more video of Steve at a convention:

Kevin Clash: I got to perform with Jim a bunch of times and I loved how respectful he was when he came into Sesame Street. You know, this guy has done everything, directing, producing, but he was always respectful to whoever was directing. He even said to me "Boy, this script is hooo!" But he...

Joey Mazzarino: This is an example of a character who went on, not to be a hit character but somebody who lasted. There was a little grouch plant that was in a bit, and the writers loved it so much they wanted to create a character for it. (He does the voice) "And then he became Stinky the...

I thought Grandpa Camp had a sweet premise. I also liked the fact that Gonzo's grandparents were live-action humans. I like when everyone decided to cross each other's kingdoms, Gonzo didn't want them to enter his kingdom until his crown flew off.

I liked the songs in both episodes. It gave Eric Bauza a chance to show how good of a singer he is.

Kevin Clash: In terms of directing, let's talk about the legendary Jon Stone. (Panel claps) I remember he said "You're really directing yourselves. If you make me laugh, I'll keep the camera on you all the time." I remember doing a puppet named Wolfgang that he loved. It was this seal, (does...

Kevin Clash: For me, to make a long story short, go and see Being Elmo. Joey Mazzarino: Being Elmo, whoo! (Audience cheers) Next! Kevin: Yeah, next. (Laughs) Matt Vogel: We don't need to hear more from you. I saw you on the Daily Show. Joey: Wait till Being Broccoli comes out, that's gonna be...

At a convention back in April 2017 with Caroll and Debi Spinney, Debi said one of the things they plan to do for the 50th anniversary is to bring all the puppets back, which possibly means they'll finally rebuild Bruno. I wonder if this means they'll bring back the Around the Corner characters...

Kevin Clash: Tell them about Big Bird. Matt Vogel: Yes. Caroll Spinney is the performer of Big Bird, he's been doing it since day one. He's a wonderful man, and somewhere along the line, it was decided they needed someone to stand in for Caroll when he didn't wanna go to Iowa (Kevin cracks up at...

Point taken.

This might sound a little nit-picky, but I think it's kinda sad how Ryan doesn't wanna bring up Kevin when talking about how he became Elmo for fear of talking about the scandal. Hopefully, with Happytime Murders being out now, and it being pretty public knowledge that Kevin is with Henson now...

Joey Mazzarino: A few years ago, they asked me if I wanted to direct, and at first I was like "I'm not a director". But I realized as puppeteers, we're kinda directors cause, we're watching ourselves in the monitor, and I know how to compose that shot cause I've been watching it for 18 years. So...

Elmo: The broccoli has a DGA card? Broccoli played by Matt Vogel: Oh yeah, I've been directing ever since I was a floret! Elmo: Elmo can't believe they gave a DGA card to a broccoli! Murray: Hey, they gave one to Michael Bay, why not a broccoli?

My next series of quotes are from a Sesame Street DGA event from 2011. Murray: Actors have no control at all! They just go where the director tells them to go, and do whatever the director tells them to do. Elmo: That's terrible! Murray: It is. It's like we're some kind of puppets. Elmo...
