    Why isn't Skeeter a Muppet?

    And Baby Piggy was voiced by a woman, so her voice sounded odd (I'm more used to a man voicing Piggy), but not as odd as Baby Gonzo's girlish voice.

    The "Upstairs, Downstairs" debate!

    OK, ever since the "Upstairs, Downstairs" Monsterpiece Theater classic has been re-uploaded to Youtube, this has started an odd debate. JonnyTBird and a few others claim that it is from 1978 and the first Monsterpiece Theater made, according to the packaging of an Alistair Cookie doll...

    Old School Volume 2 coming November 6

    Finally, there will be the full Telephone Rock on DVD. And it's nice to see an uncut News Flash that ISN'T going to be one already released on the "Big Bird's Story Time" video (like the "Rapunzel" and "Humpty Dumpty" skits).

    Muppet Babies opening sequence question

    They didn't redub Animal and Bunsen and Skeeter's voices for the second opening, but for some reason they re-did Nanny's line (it still sounded like Barbara Billingsley voicing her). The copy of the old opening commonly seen on Youtube had the second version of the opening theme dubbed onto it...

    Muppet Babies opening sequence question

    I know the second season had the old 1984 opening, so I'm betting the newer intro debuted in the third or fourth season, but most likely the fourth.

    Muppet Babies opening sequence question

    I have a question about a particular "Muppet Babies" opening title sequence: I know the one commonly seen on Youtube (starts with Baby Rowlf on the piano, Fozzie on the rocking horse, etc.) was from the first and second seasons, but when did THIS opening first be put into use...

    What sketches scared you as a kid?

    That sounds pretty neat. A friend of mine told me that fire thing actually happened in the early 1990s even though he didn't remember the plot. The Ernie and Bert line was funny, though.

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 38

    Wow, the tornado was played by Jerry Nelson? I didn't know he did work in post-2000 "Elmo's World" segments! (even though this one was from 2002) Similarly, the East Branch library in my city has an old civil defense siren near it, which might've actually been meant to be used as an alert if...

    Not Enough Classic Clips

    They also had the song "Air" and the animated skit "Beginning, Middle and End."

    God, you had a strict mother, MeWantCookie. :concern:

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 38

    So far, it seemed like the most widely-used humans this season were Gordon, Alan and Maria. Also, Miles didn't many any appearances this season! But at least we got a new appearance by Bob; I guess they were saving him for last. Now it's also over with the... Hi! I'm Murray from Sesame...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 38

    I, too, enjoyed the reshoot of "Rubber Duckie." I think it was done in 1998, and it might've been Steve Whitmire operating the Ernie puppet, lip-synching it to the original Jim Henson recording. And I also liked the new "Elmo's World," mainly because Super Grover was helping out in this one...

    What sketches scared you as a kid?

    Which season was the episode with the apartment on fire? The 1980s, I presume?

    What sketches scared you as a kid?

    You mean the one when Hoopers' store has a fire? It was pretty dark and realistic, and it had really tense music that reminded me of the Mysterious Theater theme. But I thought I heard that there was an episode where 123 Sesame Street caught fire. When was this episode, and can someone give me a...

    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_pu1HwiTOE Elmo Saves Christmas is now on Youtube. Here's a link to the part with the brand-new Sesame Street News Flash. I also downloaded that part, edited it so only the Kermit reporter scene is in, got rid of the newer NEWS FLASH logo and replaced it...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 38

    This season gave me my first glimpse at the new Gladys the Cow. I must say, while it's good to see the character back in action, I don't really like her new voice. It makes her sound, well, too feminine. The woman performing her does a great job with Cleo the Lion (on "Between the Lions"), but...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 38

    Episode 4158 was pretty cool. Elmo was a lot like his early 1990s self in that one. Also, they made a weird mistake: they played the nighttime music when Abby announced the sponsors!

    Non-SS Muppeteers you'd like to see on SS more often

    I'd love to see Camille Bonora return to the show, and I'd also enjoy seeing more Bill Barretta. If they ever decided to have the Muppet Show gang make a guest appearance on a "Sesame Street" episodes, then we could get all these Muppeteers!

    Why isn't Skeeter a Muppet?

    Since Janice was always performed by a man (mostly Richard Hunt), they got Dave Coulier to voice Janice there.

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 38

    Maybe it's because the reruns are a two-parter. We might get the new episode on Friday instead.
