    Questions about anything

    Not sure if this belongs here or in the "What's the deal?" thread, though maybe it belongs in a little bit of both threads. But in Cheech and Chong's Nice Dreams, Chong ends up trading their money in for a bank check, which I think was for the same amount they had (I haven't actually seen the...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    The next Sesame DVD after Learning Rocks will be M is for Mystery, which will come out in September and be a release of two full episodes and a bonus street story. Currently, there's no signs of any Sherlock Hemlock segments (I'm hoping that not everything has been announced yet... Though it...

    Speculation: Sesame Street 45th Anniversary Possibilities

    You know, if there is going to be a DVD release celebrating the anniversary, it'd make sense that we don't know yet. Since Warner Home Video got the video rights, new releases have typically only been announced two months in advance. That even applies to collectors releases like Old School Vol...

    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    Although I don't think any "new" classic clips have been added to sesamestreet.org recently, Sesame Workshop has recently added a few classic clips that aren't on sesame street.org, including a couple of first season segments: The one where Cookie Monster interrupts Kermit's lecture on feelings...

    New half-hour version of Sesame Street to debut on PBS Kids this fall

    I know, but it'd still be cool if they did. I keep thinking, for a 3o-minute version of the show I had in mind, I would open each show with a street scene but rarely include any street stories (though it'd be great to include stuff like the episode where Big Bird ran for president, or the...

    The Jim Henson Hour Appreciation Thread

    One thing I must wonder: Most if not all episodes were among the lowest-rated programs of the weeks they aired, but how well did Sesame Street: 20 and Still Counting, which aired in the shows time slot a week earlier, do in the ratings during its initial broadcast? I wonder if the ratings for...

    The "You know what?" thread

    For years, I wondered why Saturday Night Live continued after season 5. Since Lorne Michaels, all of the cast, and most of the writers left, they should have just ended it. Season 6 was basically a new show, and should have just had a completely different title. But considering the sixth season...

    Questions about anything

    In Man on the Moon, when Andy Kauffman first announces that he has cancer, his disbelieving manager threatens to sue his writer if he finds out that his writer was the one behind Andy having cancer. While I don't know if that threat really happen, I'd like to know if you can really sue somebody...

    New half-hour version of Sesame Street to debut on PBS Kids this fall

    I wonder if these 30-minute versions will have special alternate titles (like how Noggin referred to its airings as Sesame Street Unpaved and 123 Sesame Street). It would be great if they could do a few different 30-minute versions of the show from different eras* (in different time slots...

    Questions about anything

    They didn't cut the whole song. Having only seen the movie once (and before I got the soundtrack), I don't remember how short it was in the movie.

    Speculation: Sesame Street 45th Anniversary Possibilities

    One thing that would be cool for the anniversary would be if PBS or Sprout would show a classic clip between programming. Maybe something under two minutes. Of course, if classic clips were shown between programming, I guess they'd be some of the best-known classic clips. Stuff like Rubber...

    New half-hour version of Sesame Street to debut on PBS Kids this fall

    At first, I wondered if this would be a completely new show, or if it would include classic segments, but it looks like neither will be the case. I wonder if there'll be a special title for these edited reruns.

    Questions about anything

    Any idea if this applies to Amazon or eBay? On a similar note, do you need an account to use prepaid cards to download from the Nintendo eShop?

    If you make an online purchase with a prepaid credit card, do you need to have an account with whatever website you're shopping from?

    Dreams about Muppets...

    Recently, I've dreamed that the special Sesame Street All-Star 25th Birthday: Stars and Street Forever was being rebroadcast... And I didn't know this was on until it was at the montage of music clips, where my recorded copy had stopped, so I quickly went to get a blank tape to record from...

    "Muppets Take Manhatten" Revisited

    You know, back in the 1990s, it seems like this was the hardest Muppet film to find a non-rental video copy of. Most video stores and libraries had it, but finding a copy to buy was hard... I remember back then seeing copies to buy at Suncoast (which I didn't go to often back then) and Kroger...

    Is There A Reason There's No New Figure Line?

    Recently, there was a line of Muppet figures spoofing Star Wars... I wonder if Disney should try more Muppet figure lines based on other popular franchises. Marvel superheroes comes to mind right now. Hmm, I wonder if there'll be new Muppet Star Wars figures when the new Star Wars movies...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    Last night I dreamt that I watched the 1994 VHS release of The Frog Prince, and after the program there was a lot of extra stuff, like deleted scenes and special scenes for the video. There was a fade to black with text, reading "Miss Piggy was eaten by Sweetums", with Kermit reading the text...

    The Official " Cheapest Muppet Movie Ever" thread

    Although the unproduced Muppets in Space got merchandise (Welch's juice jars) around the time it was announced. In Jim Henson: The Biography, it says that the movie ended with Gonzo getting corporate funding, allowing for it to be produced in high definition... But I didn't think high...
