    Questions about Jim Henson's Animal Show

    Hey Count. I forgot to mention that there were two other characters on the Animal Show as well. There was Stinky's Aunt Sniffy who was a black and white skunk covered with white bandages for she just finished a painful stunt. (puppeteer unknown.) And Yves's girfriend Yvette who was a...

    Questions about Jim Henson's Animal Show

    Hello Mak. Thank you for clearing that up for me. :) Wow, you're the one who did Yves? That's so cool! When I first saw Yves, I wondered if you were doing his voice from the beginning. And I also remember you as Farkas Fafner from Ghost of Fafner Hall. Welcome to the Muppet Central...

    Rats cooking breakfast

    I thought one of the most neat moments of The Muppets Take Manhattan, was where the Muppet Rats were cooking breakfast in the diner, while Rizzo sang this cool scat song. :) I heard this was one of the most complicated scenes they had to shoot in the movie. I can imagine with stuff like...

    Questions about Jim Henson's Animal Show

    I'm sorry. But I have no idea what the names of these animals were. They didn't give them on the show. I guess you can just call some of them unnamed interview characters and the pig an ending appearance character. That's all I can tell you.

    Sesame horror theater

    Here's how one episode of Sesame Horror Theather would go. We're looking at a spooky mansion and we see Vincent sitting calmly in his chair. "Greetings and welcome to Sesame Street Horror Theather. I am your host, Vincent Twice-Vincent Twice." Then he turns to a rock sitting on a table...

    What happened to Kevin Clash?

    It's kind of like how Carroll Spinney was busy doing Big Bird and Oscar to do anything else for Henson. I guess it's now the same for Kevin.

    Questions about Jim Henson's Animal Show

    Hi Count. :) I'm sorry I didn't give you the Rhonda the Rat report animals. They were just basically the same animal guests only with different voices. But when I get time, I'll go back and give you the list. It might be a while though. And thank you for giving me credit too. :) Xerus

    Who said this line?

    Well, I guess they called the french fries, Joan-of-Arcs because Joan was a French woman. And some restaurants and hotels do serve french fries with eggs. Or sometimes home fries or even hash browns.

    Sesame horror theater

    Here's an idea for a fun, but creepy, TV show for either PBS or Noggin. How about Sesame Street Horror Theater? Where they take the scary classic SS skits and put them on a half hour show where Vincent Twice-Vincent Twice would be the host and introduce the skits. The following...

    Who said this line?

    Actually, the zeroes were two poached eggs. The trampoline was toast. and the Joan-of-Arcs were french fries. Yes, delicious breakfast foods made by the hands of the Muppet rats. :)

    Scary Sesame music

    Today my sister mentioned that what was really scary about classic SS was the creepy music. And I agree. Not only were some of those monsters scary looking, but the dark rumbling background music whenever a monster showed up was pretty intense as well. Like when Cookie finished eating...

    Early SS Monsters: Not so cute!

    Yes, most of those scary monsters were from the Ed Sullivan show. I guess Jim and his crew were used to making scary Muppet scenes for adult audiences and didn't realize what would happen if you put these scaries on a kids' show.

    Mr. Hooper's pancakes

    Why did they change Gobo's look?

    And they also gave Gobo bigger eyes and some eyelids as well. Also Ma Gorg went through some changes the same time the new Gobo came out. Ma used to have her hair down and was always frowning. But now her hair's done up and she's smiling, and later she got herself a new voice.

    Can someone describe this Kermit skit?

    Hey, thanks a lot. :) That scene was just how I remembered it! I also remember how scary that was. :eek: I can't remember how the story went, but I do remember the scary background music and it ending with Kermit hopping away in fear.

    SS worries about obesity

    I read in a TV Guide that this season, Sesame Street is going to do some episodes about good health since they're worried that two many children in our society are becoming overweight. Big Bird will teach us about exercise and Cookie Monster is supoosed to start eating healthier and less...

    Can someone describe this Kermit skit?

    Cool! Someone else remembers this skit I saw when I was a kid. I just thought I had dreamt it. But I guess it really did happen.

    Song: Mountain of Love

    Hey there, Count. :) Thank you for clearing it all up for me. So the blue guy is actually named Chris, eh? Okay, I'll remember that. :) Also, I've noticed that in some episodes, Big Jeffy has left the Monotones and joined the Alphabeats. But then he's back with the Monotones again.

    Song: Mountain of Love

    Oh okay. Thank you. So the lavender guy was just called Chrissy while there was Little Chirssy who was part of another band. Also, I'm assuming that Rock N Richard was done by Richard Hunt?
