Harvey Kneeslapper: (starts laughing, and then notices the audience watching) Oh, hello, there. I have a great joke planned for tonight. Yeah, you see, I am going to go up to somebody and ask, "Do you like beets?", and when he or she says that he or she does, I am going to start beating that...

Have you ever wondered how inserts that get repeated on Sesame Street are stored? Are each idnividual segment stored on a film strip, master tape, or disc and then put into whatever episode they are included in? Are all skits only included in the master tapes of the episodes they are from and...

I have just started wondering... can a Blue-Ray or HD DVD disc be played on a computer, like normal DVDs can?

When I went to walmart looking for Sesame Street: Old School Vol. 1 today, although I ddin't find any copies (I also didn't find any copies of The World According to Sesame Street), I did find three Sesame Street DVDs that I wasn't aware of. I don't know if anybody here knew about them. Anyway...

Has anybody noticed that nothing that Jim Henson has ever worked on has been released on DVD with an audio commentary feature? Not even big special edition sets, like The Dark Crystal, Labrynth, and The Storyteller collectors editions, and certainly not the recent anniversary rereleases of The...

It seems like a lot of television shows have moments that we associate as classics. These moments are often included in anniversary shows and documentaries, songs are often included in albusm (especially ones with titles like "the best of" or "greatest hits"). A lot of official books on these...

I have been wondering lately. As I've constantly looked at episode pages on Muppet Wiki, I have noticed that it seems like Noggin didn't really show very many episodes that feature Sesame Street's most famous songs of all-time, including Rubber Duckie, I Love Trash, C is for Cookie, ABC-DEF-GHI...

I am wondering, is the version of Rubber Duckie where Ernie takes a bath in front of a blue background from the first season or the second season? I know there was an earlier version from one of the test pilots, but I've been wondering about the version that's more commonly seen. I remember...

Let's have a thread about regular-sized Muppet characters who have appeared in full-body shots in productions, outside of merchandise and illustrations. This isn't counting full-body characters like Sweetums, rod muppets like The Bossmen, or animated/ computer-animated characters like Waldo C...

Back when Monsterpiece Theater sketches were in production, does anybody know how many different skits would be made each year? I was just thinking about this subject. I've read that the series began in 1982 (though that could be wrong... and some have said that the first one seems to have been...

Chapter 1 Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and Beaker were getting ready for their next performance. They were both nervous ajnd excited at the same time. "Oh, this is exciting", said Bunsen, "After that Vanishing Cream Beaker action figure exclusive was made, our fans have been wanting us to make an...

At what point did it start becomming really common for Sesame Street songs to be remade? It seems to me like it's been really common since at least 1998. Of course, during the early years there were songs that got remade, but not as often as now. During the early years it seems like there...

It was a typical day at the Distinctive Fish Resturaunt. By "typical", I mean slow, boring, and not a fun place to work at. The resturaunt only got an average of 10 customers per day, usually because they couldn't afford anything else. The resturaunt owner, Frank St. Knarf, was looking at...

What do you think are the best Sesame Street sketches from 1969 untill the end of the 1970s to not be available on video? What do you think are the best ones not currently available on video? I'm not talking about ones that you just like very well, and it can be some that you don't really like...

Chapter 1 Link Hogthrob and Dr. Strangepork were riding in a carriage in a scary forrest. "Ohhhhh, I'm scarred", said Link Hogthrob, "But I can go through with this. My Uncle Austin specifically wrote in his will for me to get 50,000 dollars if I spend one night in his haunted house."...

I have read that Grover does not use contractiosn when he talks (so instead of saying "Can't", he says "Can not", and instead of saying "Won't", he says "Will not"). I have read a quote from Frank Oz where he says that if Grover uses contractions in a script, Oz makes sure he does not use them...

Grover: Hello, there! It is I, your cute, adorable friend, Grover. (shouting) BUT ENOUGH ABOUT THAT! I HAVE HEARD THAT THERE IS A MONSTER AT THE END OF THIS EPISODE!! (Telly, Elmo, Cookie Monster, Zoe, Narf, and Herry all come onto the scene) Telly: A MONSTER!? Aaahhh Herry: Oh, no! Zoe...

I know that Richard Hunt eventually stopped performing Sweetums, sticking to just the voice, but does anybody know when he stopped performing from inside the suit? It seems like Sweetums wasn't used much during the 1980s. I only know of two Muppet Show episodes from the last season that...
