    Questions about Jim Henson's Animal Show

    Hi Count. :) Yes, they had 2 shows where a rattlesnake was a guest. The first one was about the rattlesnake and the skunk. The rattlesnake was named Victor and he had a guy's hissing voice and he was yellow with purple linings on his mouth. The second had another rattlesnake who was the...

    Sesame Street Dream

    I've had quite a few SS nightmares when I was a kid. One's where either the leopard chasing lion, the yakity yakity yak, the hungry red M, or the V is for vampire bat would jump out of my TV set and eat me. Whenever these (arch enemies) I called them came on my TV screen in real life, I'd end...

    Scooter's "New Sound"

    Can someone please tell me what happened in that skit? All I know about it is Scooter singing the song on my record when I was a kid.

    Questions about Jim Henson's Animal Show

    Thank you Deanmo for your info. It's hard to tell from Mak Wilson's and Mike Quinn's voices sometimes. Now I know. :) And I like how Mike Quinn got to sing neat songs on there like the Frog Song and the Turtle Song.

    The Fraggle Rock lighthouse

    From what I've seen in Fraggle Rock Behind the Scenes. In England, Doc was a lighthouse owner. In France, Doc was a chef and Sprocket was called Croquet. And in Germany, Doc was an inventor just like in the American version.

    I don't think Howie left Muppet Babies to do Bobby's World. Because Howie stopped doing MB around 1986 and Bobby's World started airing in 1990.

    Big Bird's unicycle

    Does anyone remember the old episodes where Big Bird used to ride on a unicycle? I bet that must've been really tricky for Caroll trying to keep his balance while wearing that heavy Big Bird suit. And if he ends up falling, he could break that TV monitor in Big Bird's chest that allows Caroll...

    The limerick skits

    Some of those alphabet limericks didn't have a poem or words. There was J for Jaguar where you saw a picture puzzle of a jaguar being formed while you heard jungle backgrounds and a big jaguar roar. And V for Violin had a guy playing a wild tune on a violin while dancing his legs around like...

    Gobo's look

    I always thought the first Gobo looked a lot younger and they grew him up to look a little older.

    Favorite opposite skits

    I remember my sister and I did this weird thing with Grover's near and far skit. We put a blanket over the TV screen and when Grover ran far away, he looked like a fuzzy blue dot. I had no idea why we kept doing it, but it always made us laugh.

    Questions about Jim Henson's Animal Show

    Hi again, The Count. :) I watched the episode again and I don't think I heard a long O when they introduced her, and it sounded like /shar-let/ with a short E. That's all I can tell you. Goodnight and enjoy your vacation. :) Xerus.

    Questions about Jim Henson's Animal Show

    I'm glad to help you out The Count. :) Yes, it is easier to send them in batches, so I can watch the shows a few at a time and study them better so I can get the descriptions and voices down better. Actually, I don't know how the Penguin's name is really spelled. I guess it could be...

    Questions about Jim Henson's Animal Show

    In 1994, it started out on FOX for the first two years. Then a year later, it started airing on the Animal Planet channel. But now it's gone. :( But I was lucky to tape them all before that happened. :)
