A trailer for The Best of Elmo 3 is online, and Muppet Wiki lists the skits seen in the video. Looking at the list, I wouldn't be surprised if that was the full rundown, but I don't know for sure. So far no classic clips listed, and as expected the celebrity clips outnumber the non-celebrity...

They also skipped the 5-year and 15-year anniversaries. I thought it was in print, though I don't see it in stores that often (I'm also unsure whether the Old School sets are in print). Of course, I usually only see the most recent Sesame Street releases in stores these days (with the...

It sure is hard to control Cookie Monster with the keyboard controls. I wonder if Sesame Workshop thought about putting in more secret content to the website that requires a code like this to view. Like rare segments fans have been requesting to see, or full episodes from the early years (or...

That's probably not the case, but there have been instances of puppets being stolen. It's been reported that the Clueless Morgan puppet has been stolen some time ago. And the Tardy the Turtle puppet from the non-Henson series Greg the Bunny got stolen after the show was canceled.

There's one recent episode of The Big Bang Theory where Penny's car breaks down, shortly after she had quit her job at the Cheesecake Factory to focus on acting and had spent most of her savings, therefore she can't afford to fix her car, and she complains about the fact that not having a car...

At first I misunderstood that to say that you were one when that anniversary happened and were 10-years-old now (which would be possible), as opposed to you being ten back then and being one person who liked the occasion.

All this time, I thought that the full title for the Play-Along Video series was "Jim Henson's Play-Along Video", but today I was looking at some of the covers, and noticed that Jim Henson's name was not written as plural... It's actually "Jim Henson Play-Along Video". I never noticed before. I...

Maybe the puppet no longer exists (though most of the really early puppets do). Maybe he was lost or stolen. Maybe the Henson Company wanted to keep him in the archives. Or maybe he's not there because he doesn't like Wilkins Coffee...

I've been thinking about how in Muppets Most Wanted, Miss Poogy and Pops' roles seem more like them recycling characters than bringing them back for new appearances, except they both have their regular performers and voices, and both are identified by name in the end credits. Miss Poogy never...

He's a great character, but I couldn't see him being used much, unless he's a regular villain or the main focus. It would be weird to see a Kermit look-alike in crowd scenes, especially for people who aren't aware of the movie (currently I don't think there's anybody unaware of Muppets Most...

Or worse, doing a reissue with additional segments from the past five years, and removing a few segments to make room. Or just removing some/all of the bonus features. Then again, I wouldn't expect the first disc to be affected, unless they moved the first few seasons on disc 2 to disc 1. And...

I've been thinking, if an Electric Mayhem song where Dr. Teeth was not the lead singer was released on an album, how would the performers of the song be listed? If any Electric Mayhem song led by Floyd was released (I know, Mr. Bassman and New York State of Mind were, but he's the only member...

Well, David Rudman's Cookie Monster and Eric Jacobson's Bert and Grover don't sound too different from Frank Oz's, and while Steve Whitmire and Matt Vogel's respective Ernie and Count voices sound different from the originals (though Vogel's Count sounds more like Jerry Nelson's when he's...

I just thought of something: The upcoming special The Cookie Thief will probably be released on DVD this year. Wouldn't it be great if that DVD included Don't Eat the Pictures as a bonus feature (though since that special is on DVD through a different company, I wonder if they could include that...

I'm having this problem as well. Good thing I could click on this thread. And good thing that when I posted, it took me right to the bottom.

Here's one I haven't been aware of:

In the last few weeks, I've heard about it snowing really badly throughout the United States, yet there hasn't been much snow or cold weather where I live. And people kept saying they expected such bad weather. I've been jokingly saying that it's been snowing everywhere but here (and Florida...

Wait, so in regards to residuals/royalties, do those entitled get paid based on what units are sold to stores or from the copies actually sold in stores?

It's a wonder (and perhaps a good thing) that it's not illegal to buy used merchandise, considering that the companies making them don't make money when people buy things that were already purchased. And Disney never made any money off those Best of the Muppet Show DVDs, as they were released...

I can't remember if I've ever suggested this idea, but I wonder if a Muppet high school show would be a good series. It would have the Muppets as teachers, teaching new students (plus Robin and maybe Bean Bunny). Kind of like how Tiny Toons had the Looney Tunes as teachers, though this would...
