    Sesame Street Season 49 Episode 4908 - Play Time

    I liked the cold open with Oscar watching Slimey and another acting out Romeo and Juliet. Of coarse Oscar would like that play. I thought Ryan gave some funny performances as Elmo trying to be a thespian. I know Peter Linz was one of the squirrels, but I can't tell who played the other one or...

    Moving Up the Ranks

    Before I move on, I would just like to point out that Tyler never actually threw shade at Steve, he just somehow agreed with Cheryl that Steve performed Kermit as a "Bitter, angry, depressed victim." Back on topic, Ryan Dillon is someone who moved up the ranks of Muppet performing. He started...

    JD Hansel: I'm really gonna try to not compare it to Roger Rabbit, I'm really gonna try not to, it's just that's an example of a movie that did some of the same things, and I happen to be talking about those same things right now. I don't have to compare the whole movies in their entireties, the...

    The New New Quote Thread

    JD Hansel: But then you have to ask the question, what even is a puppet if it's not referring to something that can be puppeteered? Steve Swanson: That's the problem I had too. The puppetry was great, you could see puppets walking down the street and it looked really good and all that, but we...

    The New New Quote Thread

    JD Hansel: The reason I brought up Roger Rabbit is cause, in that movie, you don't get too distracted by the fact that it's cartoons and people existing together. You don't spend too much brain power trying to figure out how these things that are drawn come to life and walk around. But Happytime...

    Sesame Street Season 49 Episode 4907 - New Year's Eve on Sesame Street

    The bookends with Prairie and Grover were funny. I loved Prairie saying "Sigh" and Ryan Dillon using the same voice as Kip from Dillongale for the pig at the end. I thought the song at the beginning of the street story was catchy. The plot with the Count and Alan trying to teach Cookie to count...

    Sesame Street Season 49 Episode 4906 - Math Magic

    I really hope the Foodie Truck bit with Mumford is the start of a trend where other characters ask Cookie and Gonger for food.

    Video: 12 Days of Christmas Cookies

    Apparently the instrumental for this was from a Disney album. You would think after they got the rights to all those '80s songs for the '80s mashup, Despacitio for El Patitio, and the Monster Mash for the Cookie Monster Nosh that they'd have the budget to record their own arrangement, especially...

    JD Hansel: You have to compare Happytime Murders, as much as I hate to do this, cause I don't wanna be the guy who's like "Well, there's another movie that's vaguely similar, so we have to compare this to that". But I have to talk about Roger Rabbit, because... Jarrod Fairclough: No, no, no, I...

    Steve Swanson: We form first impressions with the trailers that we see. That's why they make trailers, so we can form an impression as to whether we wanna go see the movie or not. I saw the trailer for Happytime Murders and was thoroughly disappointed, and kinda confused and angry because, I...

    TV Alert: Sesame Street on The Today Show Friday December 14, 2018

    It looks like Grover's hands are back to being armatured again. Ah well, the floppy fingers were fun while they lasted. Anyway, I'm happy Sesame continues to teach about difficult subjects.

    Sesame Street Season 49 Episode 4905 - Elmo's Factory

    I finally watched the episode, I had to watch it on my dad's computer using Amazon Prime. The street story was pretty good. Seeing Herry get screen time is always great, the beginning with Elmo pitching his anything holders to his friends like it was commercial was funny. I loved when Elmo said...

    Are the Muppets as popular as they were 30 to 40 years ago?

    I wouldn't mind if he came back, but only if he gets some serious counselling for his behavior issues.

    The Muppets to appear in Carpool Karaoke: The Series Season 2!

    Now that I've had time to watch it, I liked it. My favorite parts were Pepe's falsetto during Under Pressure and him calling Jason Stacy. I find it interesting that David Rudman wasn't there, as evidenced by the fact that Janice didn't talk and Scooter wasn't there. I would've liked to see...

    Sesame Street Season 49 Episode 4905 - Elmo's Factory

    OK, HBO GO is giving me problems. Whenever I try to watch something there, it says: "Can't play video, we're having trouble playing this video, please try again later." How long is it gonna be before it's fixed?

    Are the Muppets as popular as they were 30 to 40 years ago?

    I feel like this exchange from the Muppet Fans Talking guys is relevant to this discussion, where they talk about what the future holds for Muppet fandom after the first news after the TV show was canceled and the first news was a Gonzo bathroom at Disney World. JD Hansel: What does this mean...

    Sesame Street Season 49 Episode 4904 - So You Think You Can Choreograph

    Jen has definitely been studying Fran's work as Zoe a lot as her voice has really improved. It's really great that they're using Gladys again. The song she and Elmo came up with was great and allowed Ryan to give some awesome harmonies. The Happy Dance with all the celebrities was fun. The new...
