Hey, Muppet Dude, I think that's a great project & I'd love to help - I have a small collection of "vintage" SS video, so I can offer the info for those. I'm always searching the net for this information: Which songs, which clips are on the video - and which characters/people perform them...

Maybe I'm wrong.. Just saw today's episode (the chess game one) for the first time; was the JTE Ernie & Bert "Wake Up" song new? It was great! Since I took an almost 30-year hiatus from watching SS daily I never know which songs are really new, and which ones are just new to me! (Never...

I really like Rosita; the design of the puppet is terrific, and I think Carmen Oshbar does a great job with her; she has a great rapport with kids which has been missing from Sesame Street since Jim Henson (except for, of course, the birdketeers and grouchketeers with Caroll Spinney.) It...

Just happened to be channel surfing and caught the number! Can't stand all that soap opera stuff either- glad to have missed it. I didn't think about the conflict, was wondering if that was Matt Vogel - he was a tidge faster and more animated, but did a terrific job. Who did Grover...

Who you callin' antique! Chris Cerf wasn't even around when I used to watch the show! (OK, maybe that brief period in college...):D

That was just the way Mr. Spinney WOULD have done it...I don't know how they actually brought Snuffy to light - it was after my time!

I think a group thank-you letter is a terrific idea. I'd love for him to know that we all learned the lessons he's been teaching us for years.

Hey, guys - don't throw in the towel yet! I think the new season was great; there just wasn't enough of it! Have to say I agree about the "baby" songs, though. I think I miss Joe Raposo most of all...

He didn't say anything specific, just that he thought it would be a good idea, and that those episodes would be the ones he would choose.

Scott, I've been thinking about that, myself - I don't think he really realizes how much he's affected all of us. He says as much in the book: "I may be the most unknown famous person in America" (it's a terrific book, couldn't put it down. Sad about China) How should we do it? Start a...

He's going to be three in August...I was reasonably lucky, we only had some minor skirmishes involving the train table and him wanting to talk to Oscar. (at least he was saying "excuse me, Oscar, excuse me) He sang in the car until he fell asleep; we were practicing Big Bird songs for him to...

Really? Even "Jambo means hello in Swahili" from last season? I liked the idea of learning swahili, but Good Lord!

Apparently the parents thought it was too traumatic for children that adults didn't believe Big Bird, I guess implying that adults don't believe children in general. The adults on SS WERE pretty dismissive of Big Bird - Mr. Spinney said he thought the best way to reveal Snuffy would be for Bob...

D'OH! That would be a long day sitting at a desk, much less holding up your arm! Thanks, Super Scooter!

Wait a minute...did it air already! AArgh!

Has anybody noticed that the quality of new songs within Sesame Street episodes has declined? This season, the only ones really worth noting were in the "Cookie Hood" episode; and weren't particularly singable. What's up with that? The Sesame Street website says it doesn't accept song...

OK, I know I'm blathering on and on about the booksigning, but Caroll Spinney did mention these when somebody asked him about episodes coming out on DVD. He said he thought those types would be the most appropriate...he talked about his favorite called "The Great Snuffleupagus Race" which I'm...

How many does that make? I know they've won before, because a former colleague of mine was part of the team then. Also curious - do they win for the entire season, or did they submit something specific? Congratulations, folks! Working in the trenches can be thankless, but we all really...

I don't think ANYBODY is happy about that including Sesame Street. Maybe we should start up a foundation on our own... Though I don't understand...isn't a fully live production cheaper than animation? Why is it that PBS has filled itself with low-quality animated shows if good-quality live...

Sorry I missed you, Kristin! I know how you feel about the drive - my extremely patient son and I were in the car from three until six! It WAS worth it, though.
