In video games, if you use codes/passwords, Game Genie, Game Shark, whatever, is it really fair to call it a “cheat code”? I don’t really think of it as cheating. And the majority of games that I used Game Genie or whatever on, I still struggled to beat the game, there’s only a handful that I...

The only one I was ever able to find was Sam. I used Game Shake codes and was still unable to beat the game (of course i’ve on beaten about 10% of the games I used Game Genie for as well).

A complete play through of the Muppets Game Boy Color game. Somebody has actually beaten it! Of course I haven’t watched the whole thing yet (the video is over three hours long), but I did skip straight to the ending.

I can’t decide if I’m surprised that This is My Street has been repeated so soon after it’s first appearance on the show. Of course this seems like a good episode to include it (if only they could have moved the structuring around a little and been allowed to have it open the show).

I saw that there’s going to be a Dark Crystal fan convention held at (or by?) Elstree Studios called The Great Con-Junction, and Steve Whitmire will be a guest there. I’m not sure how official the event is, or if it’s officially being held/licensed/endorsed by Henson, but if the Henson Company...

I feel like the outfit is part-tux, part-dress. I wonder if Sesame Workshop will stand by airing this in spite of all the complaints or if they’ll end up pulling the segment from broadcast like with the Katy Perry segment. When people complain about this on social media, should we point out...

There have been interviews with Friz Freleng, Chuck Jones, and other people responsible for WB animation in the golden age who said that they didn’t make Looney Tunes for kids or adults, they made it for themselves (though they were adults when they made them). I wonder if that would make Looney...

I've noticed sometimes that when watching videos on YouTube, there might be an ad at the very end, when the whole video is over... and this ending ad has a "skip ad" option. What's the deal with that? Do people really want to wait and see the "related videos" screen when the video ends (when...

The wiki now has info on Tom’s first appearance. https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_0209 also, I think it might be the first time Oscar did his “I like being angry, which makes me happy, which makes me unhappy, which makes me happy...” bit.

Recently I found an old Nick Jr. bumper that I remembered seeing a long time ago and had wanted to find, which turns out to have been part of the Tricky Trousers series, after I happened to find another which fit the style so I searched the term, and it was pretty much the first I saw in search...

Many of the segments shot in location in New York City feature either Big Bird, Oscar, Barkley, or Mr. Snuffleupagus (or Murray Monster and Ovejita). Actually, I don't think Snuffy is in that many on-location segments, but there also tends to be a few that involve Snuffy, even if he doesn't...

I don't know whether this is the right thread for this (I've thought of a few others it'd be good for as well, maybe), but on Scarecroe's wall on the wiki, under the "do not ask for rare episodes" note is a video showing the process of creating guides from the scripts. It is cool. Comments...

I find it weird Noggin only aired part one of the five-part Purto Rico storyarc. And that they didn't air the season 16 premier. They seemed to want to focus on just three seasons each and have them be ten years apart. Though it is weird that, with season 15 being among those seasons, they...

But that was long after Ernest started appearing in movies. And long after the last Ernest movie.

Recently I've been thinking that, with the success of the Ernest movies, it's odd that other studios didn't try to cash in by producing movies starring other commercials characters. After all, when something is a hit, especially if it's innovative/unexpected success, other companies want to do...

During the 1990s, I've seen a handful of fullframe VHS releases that at least started (and maybe also ended) in widescreen for the first and maybe last few minutes. Most notably, this was on the original VHS release of Mrs. Doubtfire as well as the Jim Henson Video release of The Dark Crystal...

Recently on Muppet Wiki, there's been some discussion about deleting the "Oscar outside of his trash can" page, because it turns out that there were a lot more instances than the wiki people thought. I never really thought it was particularly rare for Oscar to be seen outside of his trash can...

After some looking, I was surprised to discover that the 50 Years and Counting album was not actually new (meaning it didn't come out this week when I found out about it), but a few months ago. The wiki just didn't have a page for it. Of course for the most part us fans haven't known about newer...

In the Taxi episode “Crime and Punishment”, where Louie gets Jeff to agree to take full responsibility of a crime that Louie had him to, after Louie confessed and the boss decided to drop charges and give Jeff his job back, we never really get another scene with Jeff in that episode. We don’t...

There is now a special anniversary album, 50 Years and Counting, available exclusively at Barnes and Noble. Looking at the wiki page, I actually can’t tell if it’s released as an LP as well as a CD. but the track listing is disappointing (as have most of the Sesame Street Records releases). and...
