So..... How often did Caroll Spinney provide the voices of his characters this past season (I kinda feel there should be a Muppet Wiki page, at least a sandbox page, for his season 48-50 performances)? I thought I read that he was Oscar in at least one episode.

When it comes to multi-part arcs, I feel the Hawaii episodes would be the best choice. They seem to be more fondly remembered than other multi-part trips. I recall reading an article about the episodes back in 2007 saying that they were clearing things to make a video release possible, since...

Another thing I thought about was adlibs and rewording of lines, which probably aren't in the scripts (though I think I saw Scott say that some of them are clearly transcribed from watching the episodes, if that's the case then they'd probably include adlibs and such). I believe I read...

I've been finding a lot of interesting info on the newer episode pages compiled from this research. Some time ago, I noticed the page for episode 2592 mentioned an insert called "Great Snuffle Derby", which I assume features Mr. Snuffleupagus. While it now has an eka applied, it previously...

Lately, when learning what seasons certain segments debuted in, I've found that quite a few of the ones I had been wrong about had debuted in either season 10 or 20 (in terms of first broadcast episodes to include them). For the most part I'd just been guessing, but it is interesting that so...

Or he could have just taken off his vest when they shot it (or put a vest on before doing the others, depending on what order they were shot). Wouldn't have been that difficult.

I got this a few weeks ago. The picture quality looks great. Somehow I missed that Fraggle Songs and Doozer Music were included as special features. While both had been available digitally, neither had been on a season set or complete series set before (Doozer Music hadn't even been a...

Looking at the guides for episodes 2681 and 2737, I wonder if the endings were swapped. Both episodes involve Gabi and Irvine going to day care, the first one has a scene where Oscar talks about playing peek-a-boo with Irvine, and then the final scene in the other one has Oscar and Irvine...

Looking at guides for some of the episodes this week, it seems like this was a week of scary segments (despite airing in February). It had this banned episode, it's been pointed out that the infamous "Cracks" appeared in the next episode, but a couple days ago I found that episode 849 has...

Yesterday, I was at a Goodwill store and found some volumes of The Sesame Street Treasury. So I looked through them a little, and found in one story, I think it was called "King of Cauliflower Castle", Biff is actually shown without a hat twice. So now I know that there is at least one official...

Wow, they recorded the whole retirement party show (though I'm not really surprised). IF they put out a special DVD for the 50th anniversary, they should include some of it as a bonus feature. I heard that when The Jim Henson Company honored Caroll Spinney with an event a few months ago...

While Matt Vogel isn't performing Mumford, I felt like I heard a hint of his Floyd in Mumford's voice. Then I remembered that John Kennedy did perform Floyd a couple of times. Anybody know how often John Kennedy performs on Sesame Street?

For the last few years, I'd been thinking that the majority of really weird or bizarre Sesame Street segments were animated segments, with very few of the really weird ones being Muppet segments. Of course there had been some weird Muppet segments, like The Geefle and the Gonk (though after...

Well, recently the wiki has gotten info on that particular scene. Turns out it was part of the original season one performance of "Up and Down", which had hippies singing and cut-aways to a few things, including this instance. So it indeed taught up and down, but wasn't its own segment.

It's amazing what is now known thanks to these. Just a day or two ago, there was a page created for a season 21 episode with Oscar being against recycling, which turns out to be the episode that had a clip in the A&E Biography that showed Oscar, accompanied by Bruno, asking Bob "How long have...

Not sure if this was intentional, but the segment where Ernie and Bert go to Egypt is like the opposite of a typical Ernie and Bert sketch. Many have Ernie dragging Bert into his activities/nonsense, which Bert is not interested in, but as soon as he is enjoying the activity and really into...

I thought it was a little weird when PJ and Kai-Lee interact with Jonathan, appearing in a TV set as opposed to appearing in person in his studio. But then I remembered that it's kinda like at the beginning of Hey, You're as Funny as Fozzie Bear, where Kermit talks to some kids watching the...

There is something I had thought about for a while after the wiki started making these guides. I wonder, of all the episode pages compiled from trusted sources, which of them will be the first to surface, whether it's the whole episode or just the street scenes, whether it turns out somebody...

For the last few months, a few people at Muppet Wiki got access to many scripts from the show, creating episode pages cited as being from trusted sources. And these sudden scripts have been a nice asset for the wiki. Along with seeing new episode pages for old episodes, it's often fascinating...

It also seems like Eric Jacobson very rarely does interviews, less so than other performers.
