    American Archive of Public Broadcasting to preserve nearly 4,500 Sesame Street episodes

    I never said they did. MikealaMuppet asked if I happened to have a link to view some content. I wasn't asked specifically about Sesame Street content, which I don't expect to come to the website (assuming some eventually will) until after episodes are available there (has it been six weeks since...

    American Archive of Public Broadcasting to preserve nearly 4,500 Sesame Street episodes

    Here's a link of search results for what Children's programming can be viewed or watched on the website. http://americanarchive.org/catalog?q=children+OR+kids+OR+youth&f[access_types][]=online It's said that only 30% of the place's content is available to view online, hopefully some...

    Frank Oz Talking ‘The Muppets,’ ‘Sesame Street’ and Dark Crystal Prequel

    Here's an article about the IUS appearance that Frank Oz made last week: https://www.newsandtribune.com/news/iconic-puppeteer-and-director-frank-oz-speaks-at-ius/article_981138d0-4ab3-11e9-a168-9f43d2f16d9c.html (I can spot myself in that picture of the audience - I am near the top of the...

    American Archive of Public Broadcasting to preserve nearly 4,500 Sesame Street episodes

    So there's a part of the website where you can view some content (hopefully some of the Sesame Street episodes will eventually be included). It's great that photos can be allowed, though it looks like it's only by taking a picture of the screen as opposed to making still images. If photos are...

    Early (pre-Kevin Clash) Elmo appearances (Brian Muehl and Richard Hunt)

    The wiki has recently noted that in a couple of episodes that came during Telly Monster's transitional period between "Television Monster" and the Telly we all know, when he was a generic monster, Telly was used a few times as an unnamed monster who spoke in monster grumbles (I'm taking it that...

    Frank Oz Talking ‘The Muppets,’ ‘Sesame Street’ and Dark Crystal Prequel

    I don't know if this is the right place to post this or if I should have started a different post, but last week I saw Frank Oz in person. He gave a speech at Indiana University Southeast as part of the place's Sanders Speaker Series, which has notable people from around the country speaking. I...

    American Archive of Public Broadcasting to preserve nearly 4,500 Sesame Street episodes

    I doubt I'll be able to go to either archives location anytime soon, but there are a lot I would like to see. There are episodes I'd like to see more for the sake of confirming things (I've been meaning to list episodes people should see if their main goal is to add to Muppet Wiki, though we...

    Little things we've noticed

    Recently, I watched the 1994 VHS release of Hey Cinderella, which has a short promo for The Frog Prince. However, the promo is just a picture of the video box with the announcer briefly mentioning this (I suspect The Frog Prince 1994 VHS did the same for Hey Cinderella - then I watched the...

    Episode info from trusted sources

    Some great recent revelations/curiosities from recently-added info. It turns out there's a season 9 episode involving an unnamed dog who might be Barkley. I would have thought if he were in season 9 he'd be called Woof-Woof, but it's possible he was unnamed then given a name, though it's...

    Except Gordon does refer to him as Dad in this episode.

    Sesame Workshop/Shout! Factory Deal

    Well, Muppet Wiki has more info on Awesome Alphabet Collection, which confirms it'll be a mix of classic and recent material, though most of the specific stuff mentioned is more recent (it does mention Maya Angelou doing a handclapping game about the letter H, that's from the '90s but I can't...

    Sesame Street Season 50 News and Rumors

    I couldn't really decide on which one.

    Little things we've noticed

    Recently, I've noticed that the images on the back covers of the 1994 releases of Hey Cinderella and The Frog Prince seem to replace backgrounds with a plain color. Took a long time for me to really notice, but I was looking at the images on the back of Hey Cinderella and noticed the humans in...

    Little things we've noticed

    It seems like a lot of recurring Muppet segments (though obviously not any of the short form series) have only one or two installments in their debut season and take a bit of time before they really get a big back catalog of individual segments. For example, the first season had two Answer...

    Sesame Street Season 50 News and Rumors

    Yeah, for an anniversary release, it'd be better to represent most of the seasons/eras almost equally (though my wishlist kinda reflected that, though more on the first decade than others). Heck, a few years ago, when the main cast was shortened to seven, I thought there should have been a...

    Sesame Street Season 50 News and Rumors

    I kept debating over whether to provide a sketch wishlist for my idea of an anniversary DVD spotlighting the main characters who were there in the first season, but why not? Big Bird Big Bird meets Sally The Sound of the Letter A ABC-DEF-GHI (season 4 version) Big Bird's Backwards/Forwards...

    Sesame Street Season 50 News and Rumors

    Last night I thought up a good concept for a 50th anniversary DVD (or online "collection"): One that's kind of like the "Best of Friends" DVD release, only it'd focus on the characters who have been on the show since the first season: Big Bird, Bert and Ernie, Oscar, Cookie Monster, and Grover...

    Muppet Sing-Alongs thread

    I don't think there's been a thread for the Muppet Sing-Alongs video series, but I just recently saw the last of the ones I previously hadn't and thought I'd start a thread. Here are my thoughts on the videos: Billy Bunny's Animal Songs It's a weird choice for the first Muppet sing-along...
