Gina had better luck meeting her hero a few seasons earlier. But then again, I don’t think she wanted to sing with the band (even if she does sing better than Mike).

I could actually go for another release of Wet Paint (though most preferably with the SMV intro). Considering how uncommon it is these days for classic clips to be released on home video, maybe we shouldn't complain about the quality too much. Of course when things become rarer to come to...

And if they converted standard definition clips to high definition for a release only available in standard definition (and I do not know if that’s the case with the pre-HD clips or not, though I haven’t really noticed any interlacing on the set), then I guess it’ll look worse. I got that one...

Yeah, that one looked great on the release (though I feel there's some interlacing or something in Billy Idle's eye movements at the beginning).

I hope the main program doesn't include any of those made for YouTube videos as part of the main program, though I can't think of any off-hand that involves counting (well, "Can You Telly How to Get to a Billion Views" and "Counting the Yous in YouTube", but I can't see those used as main...

And now I wonder if part of that (for Muppet Musicians of Bremen) was a style choice, to primarily use non-Muppet performers as the voices, maybe so they wouldn't all sound too familiar to Sesame Street's audiences. I don't know how many Canadian talent they needed, and Bremen did not have any...

And during the early years, it was common for the human cast to do Muppet voices from time to time. But they were a regular part of the show, I guess Jim didn't want to hire performers to just provide voices of the puppets (but Sokol was a special case). The Frog Prince and Muppet Musicians of...

The next Sesame Street release is Cool Counting Collection, a number-themed follow-up to Awesome Alphabet Collection (and it has better alliteration!). It's interesting, the initial press release for Awesome Alphabet Collection mentioned a mix of classic and newer clips, while the wording for...

I didn't think that each of the main seven would have to be together that frequently. But since season 46, when they limited the main cast to Big Bird, Oscar, Elmo, Cookie, Grover, Abby, and Rosita, have there been many street stories that equally involve all seven of them? Even with seven...

When they reduced the characters to a core seven (with the rest being more secondary now), Oscar was one of the "main seven". Now he's only been in a few new episodes this season? They must have dropped the core focus further.

Of the four street scenes with the Miami Mice, my favorite is the one at the Fix-It Shop. I thought it was weird in the regular Miami Mice sketch with The Count when they show up at the space station and shout "Miami Mice! Freeze!", when the people at the space station didn't seem to do...

More episodes this season have been broadcast, he's shown up a little more often, though it seems like only one scene per episode. And maybe it's just me, but it seems like whenever he appears now, he's always sitting on the couch. I wonder if he has problems walking now. Today I tried...

I assumed that all of the celebrities in that did appearances in season 19 (or maybe season 18, when the original came out), so I was surprised that all three of Danny DeVito’s appearances debuted in season 17 (well, one was produced then but premiered in season 18). Could they have really had...

The Great Snuffleupagus Derby: 1130 Snuffleupagus Derby - YouTube I was expecting to see nine Snuffleupaguses, and be a 1-9 counting lesson. Though that might have made the sketch a bit boring (though the segment itself is a bit long), might have also been time consuming to make and change...

At least in terms of broadcast. Muppet Wiki has the taping date for that one but not the one with Ernie (though I wouldn't be surprised if they were both done on the same day). Though it is interesting that, internally, that one is titled "Kermit Meets Miami Mice", when it's their first...

In the YouTube thread, a few people have been referring to the Miami Mice as boring. That is a matter of opinion, I really disagree (and I was a big fan of them when I was a kid and knew nothing about Miami Vice). But it does get me thinking some things. The last time any of their segments...

“How did he know I was here?” Maybe that’s one of Super Grover’s super powers. they never bring up that Gina could make Mr. Johnson a new cheeseburger.

They would still be in the vaults, even if they legally couldn’t make the episode available anytime soon.

The Miami Mice's jogging suits look different from what I was expecting (and I hadn't realized that Muppet Wiki does not yet have a screenshot from this scene). I actually was expecting their jogging suits to look boring by comparison - I was expecting their clothes to look closer to their...

I thought the Miami Mice segments were awesome. Of course the ones with Kermit and Ernie were the only ones fans had access to for years (and are the only ones I really remember seeing as a kid, though I vaguely recall The Count segment). I don't find the one with The Count as boring, though...
