Sam and Friends Book Read our review of the long-awaited book, "Sam and Friends - The Story of Jim Henson's First Television Show" by Muppet Historian Craig Shemin.
I am remembering that now, seems it became a little common in the second season for episodes to have two main shorts and one much shorter short, which includes the theatrical CatDog short that was released with The Rugrats Movie.
In addition to the main”two shorts” format of Ren and Stimpy, the show often had short sketches as well, like Ask dr. Stupid,Log, various commercials, and the “what’ll we do ‘til then???” sign-offs (which I feel they should have done more). I wonder why that was the only Nicktoon series to do...
On a similar note (which I guess should go on the Nickelodeon thread), why did Ren and Stimpy have little skits in addition to their main episodes while the other Nicktoons did not?
I think he means that the people with the scripts have likely had more time to make the guides, depending on whether they still had jobs during the shut downs.
Waiting for the video chats, I felt like Gordon in episode 2042, where he sets up all he needs while waiting to meet Mr. Snuffleupagus so he’d be sure to see him. I was making sure I had all with me so I wouldn’t miss the calls.
of course I logged in to both, with two windows open, and I got a...
Some things I recall from the live stream:
*Steve talked about how he did the voice of Ernie toys for a number of years before he was officially cast as Ernie (anybody know of any talking Ernie toys made between 1990 and 1993?). I think he said they did consider one or two other performers for...
I’ve recently thought up a fan theory regarding the Hey Arnold episode where Gerald spends the night and meets the boarders.
I’ve recently learned that one of the borders, a woman named Lana Vail, was supposed to have a crush on Arnold, which the censors objected to, so she mainly just made...
Maybe they continued showing certain discontinued/“dead” Muppet characters in segments about letters and numbers, if the only Herbert Birdsfoot segments still shown were about the letter M, and if they continued to show Harvey Kneeslapper segments through season 32 (most of the ones shown were...
I watched the live video. It was great. Debbie Spinney also joined them for this.
I also purchased one-on-one chats with Emilio Degardo and Debbie Spinney, they were fun to talk to. Since I had already met Steve Whitmire twice and he cost a bit more than the others, I passed on him this time so...

Herbert Birdsfoot segments aired from time to turn in the 1980s and 1990s, I think few and far between. Season 25 showed the M/W segment, and, again, he was in the background in the “Ernie locks Bert out” segment which last aired in season 30 (and I guess that’s the last time they played a...
It seems like the continued showing Roosevelt segments until season 17 or 18, though the 1980s didn’t seem to show the classroom sketches. And segments where he’s just in the background would continue from time to time (the segment where Ernie locks Bert out was last seen in season 30).
I know...

I’m at a point where it’s a little hard to find ten favorite segments from each season (I could just go through every episode page at that point and see what doesn’t have a first or eka noted), so I’ll combine some seasons.
Top ten segments from seasons 31 and 32:
1. Grover and Elmo -telegram...
