    I wonder how Frank feels...

    That was a good way to at least have Frank's name in that movie. And I've always imagined Ozzy Osbourne playing the Wizard. I can just imagine Ozzy's big head appearing and shouting.... "I AM THE GREAT OZZY OZ!"

    Rest in Peace Henry Corden

    Ever since original FF voice, Alan Reed, passed away in 1977, Henry took over the role of Fred. I've noticed when Henry started doing Fred's voice, he didn't act really mean and tough like the original Alan Reed, Fred. But it was great that Henry got to do Fred for many years in those...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    I was thankful I got to see this entire movie. At first, I was worried if the power was gonna go off or get interrupted by a weather report, for there was a wild storm heading my way. But luckily the storm stopped early and I was able to watch and tape the whole thing. Thank You Lord! :)...

    What does your user name mean?

    A xerus is an African ground squirrel. I remember seeing this animal a lot in my alphabet books when I was a kid. But I can never seem to find a xerus in the encyclopedias or the regular animal books.

    Pinwheel

    I remember when I first got cable back in 1983, I first came across the Nickelodeon channel when it was younger. The shows it featured were Pinwheel, Today's Special, Dusty's Treehouse, Lassie, Black Beauty, Dangermouse, Belle and Sebastian, Out of Control, Mr. Wizard, Special Delivery, and...

    Did anyone see Hitchhiker's Guide?

    I just saw it today. Those Vogon aliens were very well created. And I loved the funny animation that appears in the guide.

    I don't remember what season. But I do remember it came on between somwhere during 80 to 84, when Dr. Price was a regular character for a while.

    Fozzie Bear on Jimmy Kimmel Friday May 13

    I too was wondering if Waldorf and Statler were in the audience, for they always seemed to show up whenever Fozzie is performing. I guess Dave Goelz couldn't make it that night.

    Your Favorite Cartoons on Sesame Street

    Actually, that wasn't Julius. It was a different guy called Christopher Clumsy who was in those two skits. Two more skits features Christopher showing different things feet can do like kicking a ball and running away from an angry dog who got hit by the ball. And where Christopher was making...

    Elegabunnymonkeybutterduck

    Anyone seen this episode from the early 80's? The adults and kids of Sesame Street saw Dr. Nobel Price with a poster of a strange animal. It had the body and legs of an elephant, neck of a giraffe, ears of a bunny, tail of a monkey, wings of a butterfly, and the head of a duck. Dr. Price...

    Man saying alphabet

    My favorite, Man Saying Alphabet, skit is when Pee Wee Herman did it. He said his alphabet was really small and it showed him taking out some tiny computerized letters from his coat pocket and reciting them in his funny (sometimes gravelly) voice. It made me laugh seeing and hearing Pee Wee do...

    Ernie and Bert: The licorice (70's)

    Thank you for complimenting my thoughts. :) Also, I remember a time Ernie kind of got punished for his food filching. Ernie ate one of the pieces of cake Bert bought. And Ernie made up a story about a monster eating it and leaving. Bert didn't believe it and left. But then Beautiful Day...

    Ernie and Bert: The licorice (70's)

    Is it any wonder why Ernie's fat and why Bert's thin? Ernie keeps eating all the food leaving none for poor starving Bert. :(

    Clifford and the Electric Mayhem

    I kind of think Bill Barretta would make a better Floyd. I've heard Bill do Zippity Zap on MT and he sounded a lot like Floyd.

    A talking reflection in the mirror

    I remember that skit. It was funny and surprising. :) Does anyone know which Muppeteer did that girl?

    Bilingual Sesame Street songs

    I remember Telly in a Spanish speaking town where it was freezing and snowing and everyone was singing, Haci Frio. Telly had no idea what that meant, until he learned it meant, cold. So all the townspeople put Telly in winter clothes.

    Was Jim Henson an actual full fledged hippie?

    When I saw Jim on TV one time, he was wearing this funky headband with Kermit on it. And I thought he was a hippie back then. Then I found out it was just one of those microphone headbands. Also, in the early Sesame Street episodes, did you notice that a lot of the anything Muppets were...

    Sesame English

    I remember seeing Sesame English when I vacationed in Japan a couple of years ago. I was watching a SS episode dubbed in Japanese. It was the one where Lulu kept singing, Wheels on the Bus. But instead of the Elmo's World segment, they had Sesame English. It showed Tingo talking to us in...

    Oscar's nicknames.

    Yeah, Grungetta also had her nicknames too. She called Oscar, Sourpuss and Gordon, Mustachio. And the reason Oscar calls Gordon, Curly. Because Curly was the name of the bald stooge on the 3 Stooges.
