The only thing I'm iffy about is the placement of Oscar's can. But if I see in real life, I'll make better judgement on it. (Hopefully, I'll be able to get my picture in it. They're apparently iffy on pictures cause of the set rebuild, but let this slide somehow).

You misread the headline. "Muppets SET," as in prepared, not the actual set.

You can glimpse a few of the changes to the set in some of these photos: http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/pyjama-king-peter-alexander-teams-up-with-sesame-street-for-bright-new-designs/story-fni0cx2y-1227289320813

Not sure if I asked already, but any reason you put a travel agency there?

Didn't stop LTS from airing on it.

I'm pretty sure that was intended as a one-time special, not a series. I wouldn't say variety shows are dead. SNL is basically one, though leaning more toward sketch comedy. Musicals have been quite popular lately, so having a new musical Muppet show with sketches doesn't seem like it'd fail...

Do interstitial bits appear in TV guides?

'Cause it's cheaper than flying a musical guest into NY, probably.

In the past couple of years they've been doing some musical segments taped in LA (like the Usher and Romeo Santos ones).

The Katy Perry thing had nothing to do with her; it was her outfit. From the photos I've seen, all the ladies are wearing conservative clothing.

Given the circumstances in which Ryan become Elmo, I doubt Sesame's PR team would let him do that.

This clearly isn't a movie.

Yeah, most of the one-liners were references I didn't get (don't watch it either), but yeah, it was still a good sketch.

Game of Chairs was great! I love it when the spoofs work in the regular characters instead of just only AMs.

My theory: certain Muppeteers who don't have main characters but are available frequently enough (Tyler, Stephanie, Peter). Thus, they have the performers, just not legit characters for them.

How is using a green screen any different than using like a flat/painted backdrop? Is it because the latter is actually there? It's all fake anyway; everyone knows, so I don't see what the issue is.

It wasn't a re-do; it was a re-air of the season 41 bit.

Not sure what you mean, but from what I've seen, only Hooper's is changed on that part of the block. The sign is changed too (though it's not like the old-school one).

That new puppet looks quite youthful.
