    That depends on the show, really. I give Dan Schnider all the credit in the world for one thing: he knows how to write a great "word" line. It's just like on 30 Rock, he knows exactly how long it should be, what words sound funny in it and how to fuse it together.

    Halloween is just around the corner

    Various kids dressed up today. We interviewed several of them with my FOA Muppet for our variety show; it was a great filming session.

    TV Alert: "Count Tribute" Sesame Street episode in honor of Jerry Nelson airs October 31, 2013

    I think you had a misconception as to what kind of tribute this was.

    Some random things I loved: Gladys the Cow's name-drop "The winning whistler waits for us in Wichita!" The fact that the second greatest counter in the world is a Chinese calculator

    TV Alert: "Count Tribute" Sesame Street episode in honor of Jerry Nelson airs October 31, 2013

    The whole thing was wonderful. Even though the rest of the street residents didn't get enough attention, it was great they had virtually the entire main cast there. Eric's Scandinavian judge was hysterical. But, from Telly's plead with the judges until the very end, it was pure beauty.

    I'm pretty sure Green Acres acknowledged it was a TV show at one point, so the logic gets kinda screwy there.

    Unpopular Shows you Love

    I wouldn't say Yes Dear's forgotten; they play it all the time on TBS.

    I can remember correctly, I've seen (both on and off Broadway): The Lion King The Pirate Queen Avenue Q (twice) The 39 Steps Spamalot Chitty Chitty Bang Bang White Christmas Once (which I just saw on Thursday)

    Hate Jessie

    That was just what they called the show during the last season.

    Marcia Wallace voice of Edna Krabappel passes away

    What a total shame. I wonder how the show's gonna handle it, especially when they just got Flanders and Edna together.

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 44

    Ryan is doing Elmo in the WOTD material, plus select inserts they filmed while they were in LA this past summer. Kevin is doing Elmo everywhere else in the show. Some of the inserts and episodes it seems (Flower Show, Mi Amiguita Rosita and the Count ep.) were taped after Kevin's departure...

    To answer SSLFan's question (spoilers): Yes, that was Jerry's voice at the end. Was it an archival soundbite? I don't know, and frankly I don't wanna know; it'll spoil the magic of the moment for me.

    I watched and it was lovely. I urge everyone else to try to not be like me and wait until Halloween for it.

    The new ETM had a lot of songs in it, and felt longer than usual. Not that that's bad; the songs were all great. Also, the new stuff from Jerry's tribute episode (except for Homelamb) are up on SS.org, but alas, the videos aren't working. YET....
