    You can tell by the audio quality. If something's recorded in a studio, it sounds much different than the regular microphones; it's higher quality.

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4516 - Oscar's Clean Tuxedo

    Love that they brought back Grundgetta for a nice cameo! I haven't watched the whole story yet, but what I've seen so far was great. The new Grover bit was pretty good too. His fainting at the end seemed a bit odd (he wasn't exhausted by anything, just spooked a few times).

    What was the new Grover sketch about (can't catch the ep. until tomorrow morning)?

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4515 - Stinky's First Day of Preschool

    Just watched (most of) the ep. It was certainly nice for the story to go somewhere other than the street, though it kind dragged at times. I find it very interesting that Stinky's one of those "Hey! We Need More Muppets For Street Scenes" characters from the 90's, virtually disappeared during...

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4514 - Oscar's Trash Savings Plan

    I don't see why they can't air some of the skits from it on the show; they put some on that Cooking DVD a year or so ago. Plus, so many E&B bits. Confuses me why they can't run them.

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4514 - Oscar's Trash Savings Plan

    The problem with that would be those "mini-shows" are 7 minutes long and are comprised of 4 or five individual segments, along with framing scenes with Elmo. It'd be like a mini-Sesame show within an entire Sesame show.

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4514 - Oscar's Trash Savings Plan

    I had a thought about this yesterday. I wouldn't think they'd something to put in place of AFFS, then I realized: what if they went back to having two letters of the day? Probably wouldn't work with the new intro song, but it's an idea. Or just have some other new "thing" of the day (word...

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4514 - Oscar's Trash Savings Plan

    I took it as the rest of the show's theme was "trash" and recycling factors into that, so it kind of works.

    HEH! Work It's been Canceled!

    It's not doing poorly enough to be cancelled. It doesn't look like it was even intended beyond its 8-episode run.

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4514 - Oscar's Trash Savings Plan

    I don't hate the idea of the Macklemore spoof. I wish it were a better written parody, though.

    Your Thoughts: "Jim Henson: The Biography" by Brian Jay Jones

    I think obviously in the first few seasons, Jim worked a lot more on the show. When TMM and such started up, he had less time. I know I either read it or heard it somewhere that Jim would come in for a week or do for inserts and that was it.

    The Furchester Hotel will be on Youtube November 14, 2014

    To be fair, Cookie hasn't played a prominent role in any episode other than the Mr. Crumb one. He basically does nothing but cameo.

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    To be fair, the original Best of Elmo has nothing from season 25 or after, so it's all stuff when he was more of an ensemble player and didn't have many solo bits. Best of Elmo 2 seems like the Workshop trying to cash in on the newest material (as they are wont to do) like "Outdoors" or "Song...

    Cookie Monster special in the works

    Something else. It was kind of far away, so I might not have read it right. Or it's for something else. I dunno.

    Are there Season 1 shows floating around?

    The Veston guy really bugs me, especially with his constant comments regarding David Rudman as Cookie Monster. Yeesh.

    Questions about anything

    Not really. They're billing the guest stars a lot since it's a blip on ABC's schedule.
