Also, starting with Season 30 (1998) when they began re-making the classic Sesame Street theme and introduced "Elmo's World," the full closing credits would also appear on the season premiere episode. This was done until 2003. I also hope they stop using that 1992 calypso-style music that is...

All the Muppet Babies Video Storybooks featured live puppet footage with Kermit (appropriately performed by Jim Henson) reading and narrating the stories, which were illustrations taken from the books with some partial computer FX added. The stories were also scored with actual Muppet Babies...

I agree that the 1992 credits theme is now somewhat outdated. And I know that when they changed the opening sequence and theme music in 1998 (they did a classic-style intro with Big Bird and the kids playing in Central Park) and added "Elmo's World", they kept using the same 1992 closing, but it...

I hope this new theme will be slightly similar to the old themes, like the 1998 and 2002 openings, and not a total drastic change like the 1992 "Calypso" theme. :concern:

I finally get to hear Ernie's old voice!

Wow. That sounds pretty scary (the concept of the episode and the response it got). :o I think there could be an imaginary episode using the Wicked Witch street scenes, and the segments could be various scary Sesame Street segments, including Kermit's B-sound lecture with the Beautiful Day...

That wasn't Herry's first appearance. His actual debut was in the skit where he and Cookie Monster sang about circles, and Jerry Nelson performed him in that one. The "Up and Down" song was originally recorded for an LP, with Jim Henson doing a generic monster. Then in the middle of Season 2...

Also, it should be noted that the actual Ernie puppets have a red mouth with a built-in tongue. The Large Orange Live Hand Anything Muppet has a black mouth and can have a tongue added.

I know that Jerry Nelson usually performed Rodeo Rosie, but I heard that Richard Hunt also occasionally performed her (people on this thread remember seeing skits with her performed by Hunt). That would make her a pretty minor character if she has TWO Muppeteers. But I do remember seeing her in...

Um, Totally Spies Fan, the Monsterpiece Theater "Upstairs Downstairs" skit isn't from Season 8. It is actually from 1982, probably Season 13 or 14.

In my book, it's... Jim Henson Frank Oz Jerry Nelson Fran Brill Caroll Spinney

Betty Lou usually appeared in early skits, performed by Frank Oz and Fran Brill. After that, she was mostly an extra in songs such as "I Want a Monster to Be My Friend," "Exercise" and "Listen to the Bells." She also appeared in many books. During the "Around the Corner" era, she was used as...

It was a great idea to hire her. She sort of made history as the first female Muppeteer that Jim Henson hired (outside of Jane Henson, that is). Having a balance of male and female Muppeteers adds more to that whole womans' rights thing, and it also adds realism to it. And of course, in the...

Prairie Dawn first appeared in 1970, when Fran Brill joined the cast.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8afQWyYWmE Someone FINALLY re-uploaded another one of my all-time favorite Sesame Street News Flash segments! Note that it is in really high quality, and has NO Noggin logo on it! He must have gone deep down into the CTW archives or something! :D

That's right. They were in the test pilots. That's where the "Two Noses" skit comes from.

I actually made this clip myself. I meant it to be for my own personal enjoyment, but SOMEBODY snatched it from me and uploaded it to Youtube without MY permission! Needless to say, the old Viacom "V of Doom" logo plays as the Yakity Yakity Yak charges toward the screen...

It says on Muppet Wiki that David Rudman performed her.

I take it you might have had some sort of fear of the Orange Gold Guy Smiley-type Anything Muppets due to your fears of the Spaceship Surprise Captain and Vincent Twice. You also mentioned that a lumberjack character mildly scared ya. I think that one was also an Orange Gold AM. Also, I think...

I think Velma Blank on "Squeal of Fortune" ("Sesame Street") was silent, but we know that David Rudman performed her.
