At first I wondered if Sesame Workshop would be spoiling us with 50th anniversary content, as they had been doing a lot of that several weeks in a row (with special YouTube compilations, mash-ups, and several video images in one), then they went back to the usual Throwback Thursday of a classic...

Lately the wiki has added guides for a number of character debuts who I never really thought about having proper introduction episodes, like Dexter (actually, I mistakenly thought the episode where he talks about juggling to Gordon was his debut for some reason), Leo the Party Monster, and Ruby...

I thought the same thing as I did the first post (I was surprised this hadn't already been reported here, at Tough Pigs, or The Muppet Mindset). But if I was doing it as an April Fools Joke, I would have done it on the actual day AND I would have ended the first post with a big "April fools".

I've found that Sesame Workshop plans a year-long celebration of Grover to be called "The Year of the Monster". I heard about it yesterday when Muppet Wiki added a page for an upcoming special called The Monster at the End of This Story, and searched the sourced links, including this one...

The sandbox page now confirms a few episodes where Elmo is performed by Brian Meehl via audio/video footage (though, as has been noted on a talk page, we likely won't be able to see it online anytime soon), including the last episode of season 15. I'd say that Richard Hunt's first performance...

"D Duah Duah" is the officially registered title, even if "Be My D" is the more common lyric. Muppet Wiki uses official, registered titles (there's some song database out there that they use to find a lot of song titles) whenever possible.

I wonder if we need a new thread regarding screenshots from rare clips that won't be uploaded anytime soon (like how I started a thread regarding episode information from the trusted sources). I was amazed to find stills from the first two versions of "Sing" yesterday and wondered where they...

The Fool on the Hill.

When it came to favorite songs from classic and later Muppet films, I wondered if anyone would list both Rainbow Connection and/or Together Again for both.

A lot of interesting stuff about episode 1045. It switches the main plot from maybe a half-hour of The Count's show (which seems like it could have easily been cut into a 30 minute home video compilation back in the days when Sesame Street videos were 30 minutes long - and I'm only guessing on...

Lately I've been thinking about how the 1993 Jim Henson Video releases of TMM and GMC had the Jim Henson Productions logo at the beginning and how the 1999 releases had the Jim Henson Pictures logo (which remains on modern releases), and I thought about how the 1994 release of The Dark Crystal...

Sesame Street Unpaved mentions a few Monsterpiece Theater segments that the wiki doesn't have info on, including The Ticklish Patient. I wonder how likely it is that there's additional Monsterpiece Theater segments not yet noted on the wiki. Though with the wiki's now-complete season 10-13 and...

When you compare the Muppet sketches of Sesame Street with the Muppet sketches of The Muppet Show and various variety show appearances, I wouldn't say there's many that are really strange. But maybe we have different opinions on what's "strange". Muppetzine once had an article called "Weird...

I think that sketch was part of the recent collection video of parody segments that Sesame Workshop put online. It's also been on DVD since 2011 (as part of Best of Sesame Street Spoofs!).

Probably won't happen, but wouldn't it be awesome if the pledge-drive anniversary special spotlighted the best of Sesame Street's previous pledge drive specials (which would probably be limited, but I think Big Bird's Birthday has plenty of original footage)?

Yeah, I brought up the reference on The Goldbergs several pages back, on the night it aired.

It's the start of the last day of Muppetational May, here's my remaining choices: Day 25: Best song from a classic Muppet movie: "You Can't Take No for an Answer" Day 26: Best song from a later Muppet movie: "We're Doing a Sequel" Day 27: Favorite Fraggle character from Fraggle Rock: Boober...

I wonder if that pledge drive special will be an alternate edit of the special we know about (like how Sesame Street Jam: A Musical Celebration was a re-edited version of 25 Wonderful Years: A Musical Celebration for pledge drive season). Either way, I guess this will be the first new Sesame...

Well, Muppet Wiki now notes the first appearance of every Monsterpiece Theater segment. Speculation no more! https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Monsterpiece_Theater So both The Sound of Music and Chariots of Fur premiered in season 14, near the end of that season. Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves...

Looking at new episode pages in the last few days, it's been discovered that there was a recurring Kermit the Frog sketch/identity called "Kermit the Frog, Smart Person" (was that an actual title card or did he refer to himself that way in dialogue?), with Kermit helping a character (which seems...
