    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    I remember seeing that special as a kid!

    I have mixed feelings about a new Around the Corner. As long as they don't try to make the show too "cool" and "current" as they did in that era, I'll be fine. And Birdland Jazz Club still exists, to my knowledge. Benny Rabbit's still around, but he's not a bellhop anymore. This season sounds...

    I don't like Clifford, do you?

    I also like Clifford, mostly when he has his sunglasses on, and when he's not the host of "Muppets Tonight." I could totally see him as a baby version in a modern-day Muppet Babies!

    Main performers of silent characters

    Yes, Sam had no real voice. Instead he'd just lip-synch to popular songs or old recordings of comedy routines.

    Frequency of Characters' Appearances

    I've noticed in the 1972-1973 season, Count von Count made a LOT of appearances. I guess since this was his debut season, the writers decided to get him in as many material as possible. He appeared in a few brick-wall skits, a couple of castle skits, a Muppet-Kid moment, a Sesame Street News...

    Harvey Kneeslapper's exploding cigar

    ROFLMAO! I thought my sides were gonna ache and my heart would go pit-a-pat from laughing so much at reading this! It's about time "Sesame Street" did an anti-smoking segment outside of that News Flash with Old King Cole! :crazy:

    Beat the Time with Crazy Harry

    LOL, I loved the "Looney Tunes" and "Pokemon" references!

    Maybe, but Henson's Creature Shop might do a better hob than Magnetic Dreams. I find it amazing how Caroll Spinney can have Big Bird rollerskate or ride on a unicycle. That truly IS talent. But I believe that Caroll can't ice skate as Big Bird, so he had a double do it on "Christmas Eve on...

    Muppet Babies voice artists

    I know Baby Piggy's voice sounded a little unusual to me, but that might've been because she was voiced by a woman, instead of a man like the adult Miss Piggy is. Makes sense for the young version to be voiced by a woman, to make her sound "younger" I guess. It seems Frank Welker did a lot of...

    Who do you think should voice an animated adult version of Skeeter?

    I'm surprised nobody mentioned Tress MacNeille yet. She's been in every episode of "The Simpsons" these past few seasons! She's a great voice actress.

    Visual Thinking #2

    I like that Ed Sullivan version best of them all. The animation of the "visual thinking" looks much more better and detailed, IMO

    Then again, I remember reading from a post last year saying the set was going to be redesigned next season. I guess this is what they meant. But it looks nice though. Man, with the new set, involvement from Jim Henson's Creature Shop and Caroll Spinney inside Big Bird once again, this will...

    Sesame Workshop launches video.sesameworkshop.org

    What surprised me was that I couldn't find any Little Jerry and the Monotones clips there. But they DO have "Danger's No Stranger" by How Now Brown and the Moo Wave. I must admit, "Danger" would probably never be rerun again, but "Danger's No Stranger" being rerun could be a possibility. It's...

    Character name origins...

    Little Chrissy is named after his voice actor, Chris Cerf. And Little Jerry and the Monotones, the band members are named after their respective performers. Little Jerry = Jerry Nelson Rockin' Richard = Richard Hunt Chrissy = Chris Cerf Big Jeff = Jeff Moss In their 2000 appearance, I...

    I like the new set. It looks a lot like the one they've used since 1998. And it's good to see Caroll Spinney in the Bird suit once again! Last season, he just mostly did the voice.

    What sketches scared you as a kid?

    I think that segment was supposed to be a parody of those old Abbot and Costello horror films, like "Abbot and Costello Meet Frankenstein", with that bit with Ernie calling Bert when he's scared. I've seen the skit several times when I was little (we had it on "The Best of Ernie and Bert") and I...

    Those stupid CGI talking-animal movies...

    Yeah, I'm also angry at Disney for releasing "Ratatouille" on DVD too close to the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 5 release date. That really hurt the DVD sales for LTGC 5, and I'm kinda biased since I'm a Looney Tunes fan. BUT... I finally managed to see some of "Ratatouille" two days...

    Sesame Street Dream

    Sorry for reviving an old thread, but I had an interesting Sesame dream last night. It was one morning and my brother and I were watching TV. We were flipping through channels, and when we hit Channel 10, it was all staticky but I could hear the Sesame Street News theme beginning. Then the...
