    Sesame Street Episode 847 with Margaret Hamilton

    Yup, that's definitely how Margaret Hamilton's voice sounded around that time. Not that much different from "The Paul Lynde Halloween Special" I've often brought up here.

    Sesame Street Special "Sesame Street's 50th Anniversary Celebration"

    I'm not surprised Eric Jacobson performed Harvey, given how he can nail the Frank Oz voices. He even had the laugh down! And as for Peter Linz as Captain Vegetable, that's not too surprising, given how much he sounded like Jim Henson.

    Sesame Street Special "Sesame Street's 50th Anniversary Celebration"

    2009, actually, partly for the show's 40th anniversary in the final new Elmo's World segment, about frogs (of course!)

    Sesame Street Special "Sesame Street's 50th Anniversary Celebration"

    Ha! The taxi driver saying in an Oscar the Grouch-esque voice "Where to, Mac?" Ooooh, I spotted Captain Vegetable in Hooper's Store! It was especially great to see Linda again amongst the classic cast members! Even Leela returned as well. I also enjoyed seeing Herry Monster and Hoots the Owl as...

    Segments acceptable in 70s/80s, but now no longer the case

    "Ten bells" was actually filmed in 1972, and replaced "ten little Indians" by Season 4. Though on a similar note, there's that 1975 animated insert about how Native Americans don't "tonto talk" ("all those 'Ughs' and 'Me wantems'"). Though they still used the rather un-PC term "Indian," it's...

    50 retired Sesame Street Muppets

    Hey, I got credited at the end of Part 5 for providing footage! (Specifically, footage of Episode 4206.) And I KNEW Vincent Twice was going to make it on the list. I also liked how he pointed out the "Mysterious Theater" title card being directly based off the funeral shot in the actual...

    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    It was on the now-discontinued Valentino Sound Effects Library. "Sesame Street" used that library a LOT.

    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    Here's something different, as it's not an actual segment or footage from the show, but a stock sound effect the show used back in the old-school years, and a fitting one for Halloween!

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street 50 Years and Counting DVD Set

    I like how one of the categories was for minor/obscure Muppets. But I was surprised by how the "Monsterpiece Theater" segment "Little House on the Prairie" had the "green curtain" intro, from what I heard, rather than the "Library" intro it originally had (as it was produced for Season 25.)...

    Does anyone remember this weird bit?

    Sorry for the thread bump, but Scarecroe has provided a screencap on the Muppet Wiki! Still not on YouTube yet though, probably because of how SesameWorkshop lately is with their YouTube copyright policies...

    Halloween is just around the corner

    I know for the Halloween party my brother and I are hosting at my house, and then for passing out candy on Halloween night, I'm wearing the new fursuit I built of my original fursona, Zak Wolf! I even built the head with a moving jaw, too, just like my Disney Big Bad Wolf fursuit head.

    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    Starting at 8:13 is a REALLY rare treat! An updated version of the classic Monsterpiece Theater sketch "Chariots of Fur," with the 1992 "Library" intro and new Alistair Cookie wraparounds. To Oscarfan and I's knowledge, this updated version was never actually aired on the show! So it's been...

    YouTube Poops

    My latest YouTube Poop epic, just in time for Disney's live-action "Aladdin" remake! And yes, that's me singing the "Arabian Nights" parody.

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    I just watched the episode, and it was actually pretty fun! There were a couple of really funny imagine spots, and the animation kept getting less Flash-like at times (Oasis Animation just keeps on improving, it seems.) Peter Hirsch even wrote the episode!

    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    Yeah, it's part of their 50th anniversary celebration stuff they do for Throwback Thursday uploads this year. I've also been noticing other patterns they have. Anyone else notice how on Fridays they upload an Elmo video?

    Sesame Street Episode 847 with Margaret Hamilton

    Yeah, even with my eyeglasses some of the handwritten ones still looked like scribbles to me. Good thing the letter from the Wiccan mother was typed! :insatiable:

    "The Sesame Street Horror Special: Herry Werewolf" - COMPLETE!

    I know it's been several years, but I thought I'd dust off this "Sesame Street" fanfic I've left untouched for years, until recently, when a recent furry convention's horror and werewolf theme that I attended inspired me to finish the story! This is set around Season 21 (1989-1990), and is...

    Classic-era sound effect sources

    The "Sesame Street" production team might have made that piano crash sound themselves. It wouldn't be that hard a sound to make; just have one person pound on many piano keys at once, while the other drops or smashes pieces of wood. Creating sound effects can be, well, pretty creative!

    Rare "Cracks" animation from 1970's Sesame Street

    It makes a lot of sense of the "crack" drug being a reason why CTW stopped including that sketch in "Sesame Street" episodes.

    Sesame Street Episode 847 with Margaret Hamilton

    Naw, I'm betting at that part when she's disguised as an old lady, Margaret Hamilton basically appears as herself, like at the start of "The Paul Lynde Halloween Special" when she is Paul's housekeeper "Margaret," and they go to visit her sister whom turns out to be Witchiepoo, and then Margaret...
