    Something I just realized about Christmas specials

    Really? He's always short with the elves? As I recall he barely interacts with the elves. He talks to them before and after "We are Santa's Elves", and I'm not sure if he actually speaks to the elf who gives a weather report, but aside from him disliking the elf song he doesn't seem to be short...

    Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July

    I can't believe I like the New Years one better than Christmas in July. I've seen that one more times than Rudolph and Frosty. I wish they'd include a few of the supporting characters from the first Rudolph special, like Hermey and Yukon. I feel like Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July is...

    Anybody On Here Like Grinch Grinches The Cat In The Hat?

    I really like this special. I especially like the weird animation in the restauraunt scene. It's kind of interesting how this and How the Grinch Stole Christmas both end with the Grinch turning good, but Halloween is Grinch Night doesn't. I've tried thinking up ways to make them...

    You Know What I'd Like to See?

    I've liked the idea of a Sesame Street DVD collection of animated and live action shorts for years. In fact, that was the topic of my first April Fools thread on the forum back in 2006. It'd be great to have one themed around either animation or animation and films, though I doubt a set themed...

    Your Thoughts: A Special Sesame Street Christmas DVD and CD

    I noticed on the back cover, there's an image from the end of the special, with the cast, extras, and some of the guests. But the image on the cover superimposes Michael Jackson and Anne Murray into the image. It's a bit odd, seeing all them singing as Michael Jackson appears to just be walking...

    Sesame Street to tackle divorce, for real this time

    I wonder if this will lead to Sesame Workshop releasing the Sesame Street News "Bird Family" sketch on DVD or online, or even if they'll release portions of the "Snuffy Gets a Divorce" episode (now that I think about it, I want that to be a bonus feature on Old School Volume 5, if we get a fifth...

    Warner Bros. Drops Out of Calvin & Hobbs Movie

    At first I thought this whole article was a joke, since Bill Watterson objected to licensing the characters, and especially surprising that Kevin Clash would have been the one to have pitched/been in charge of it. This would have (likely) been the first time Clash pitched a production without...

    Video: "The Muppet Movie - The (Nearly) 35th Anniversary Edition" coming to Blu-Ray in 2013

    Tough Pigs did an article on what would make for good bonus features: http://www.toughpigs.com/tmm-extended/

    Little things we've noticed

    I've been watching the El Sleezo sequence from The Muppet Movie online, and noticed that when Kermit walks by a table where the waiter is serving frogs legs, one of the people at the table looks like Doc Hopper. Not sure if that's actually him or not, but he's dressed similar, and I thought I...

    Video: "The Muppet Movie - The (Nearly) 35th Anniversary Edition" coming to Blu-Ray in 2013

    Hopefully that Disney Intermission feature (assuming it's on this release) won't ruin that. Though I've seen screen grabs from The Muppets blu-ray online, so I guess it's possible.

    Video: "The Muppet Movie - The (Nearly) 35th Anniversary Edition" coming to Blu-Ray in 2013

    When I first saw the trailer and thought about the fact that no specific date is on there (just 2013) I wondered if it was official or fan made. Especially since the youtube channel it's associated with sounds more like something a YouTuber would have. But hopefully this is real. Too bad it...

    Grover and Mr. Johnson

    It seems like after the singing telegrams sketch Sesame Workshop didn't make Mr. Johnson his official name until after Muppet Wiki started. He'd often be listed in credits or official reference materials as either "customer" or "Fat Blue" (which is what his Anything Muppet pattern is called...

    The Official Top 10 Anything...

    I google searched her, and I do recognise some of those photos. Of course, talent is not a requirement for models. The real qualifications to being a model are looking good and the ability to pose for a picture (I'd be surprised if there were many who had trouble posing). Oh, and I guess...

    The Official Top 10 Anything...

    Wow, I've probably seen them all somewhere (I'm not one to be able to name the average model I see in a picture), but I'm still in a blank as to who they are (I could google them). I don't think I've ever even heard of The Soup, and don't watch Modern Family (have I seen Kmart commercials lately?).

    The Official Top 10 Anything...

    Top ten overrated celebrities: 10. Justin Bieber (I'd like to include him at #1, but it seems he's hated by everybody who isn't a 13-18-year-old girl, so that's hardly overrated) 9. Betty White 8. Johnny Depp (I can't believe so many women have referred to him as the hottest man alive...

    Little things we've noticed

    Not exactly a "little thing", but something obvious that I can't believe I hadn't noticed until tonight (should I start a seperate thread for obvious things we were slow to notice?:) ). But tonight for the first time I actually noticed that each Jazz Numbers segment actually begins with a...

    Any word on Sesame Street Volume 3 for iTunes?

    If/when the next volume comes I hope they can get out a few more seasons. I wonder if focusing on just three seasons was to give fans a good idea of what those seasons were like. But I'm thinking for volume 3, maybe include two episodes each from seasons 2, 6, 11, 16, 21, and 26. That's be...
