I was a bit shocked when I read the title of this thread. I sort of thought Frank would be back for good. I'm glad I read the pawncrackers post that cleared that up. Still it would be good to see a later Frank Oz performance. I'm pretty certain it was Eric as Fozzie in the DVD menu, but I'm...
Yeah, I've noticed that too, but he is still in the credits, so he'll probably pop up at some point. I think since he and Loretta Long were the two longest running cast members on the show, they may both feel the need to move on to other things. After all, they don't make as many episodes per...
Pardon me for getting out of order. My local station and my work schedule is messed up. Lol. Anyway, I saw the 'triangle lover' ep for the first time today. I can't think of too much to say that hasn't already been said. I haven't really thought much about Horatio replacing Big Bird. I...
Yeah, too bad they can't do that with "Muppet Babies." The problem there is probably that all the live footage they use are clips from movies so they'd have problems with copyright issues. I think they could work around that though. I even wrote about that at the tv.com website. Anyway...
You mean those cold openings with Murray? I think I'd like it better if they used a character that we knew doing interviews rather than just a random monster. I could definitely see Kermit in his reporter role asking about the word on the street. But since the use of :) is limited, I could...
I like that idea, especially if they could use the famous Dr. Feel. The only problem there is that after that ep, they might think it would be wrong to continue playing the sketches where Ernie keeps Bert up at night. It might destroy that concept. Maybe if it were done somehow with Telly and...
Hmmmm. I haven't seen that one and I haven't read about it in the TV listings. I guess my local station is running them out of order. That might have a little to do with the fact that it's a pledge drive month. I'm hoping they'll show the new eps at a time when they can show them without...
Here is something I was thinking about this weekend and it sort of ties into what I said in the other thread about the writer's experimenting. I guess their still trying to decide what to do with BB. They might just continue to have Carroll loop in the voice. Or they might have Matt play Big...
I highly doubt Kevin has much to do with it. Now I could see Carroll Spinney phasing out of the show because it does seem like he's getting a bit old to play Big Bird and that he has Matt as his understudy, but I could see Kevin still on the show for a good number of years. My thoughts on this...
That's something to think about, all though Matt could always perform BB. Somebody mentioned that he already is and Carroll's just looping in the voice. Oscar still appears fairly frequently, so I don't think Carroll has too much to do with it.
Yeah. I could totally see those two working together. After all, we know Mumford is still around since in a recent ep, Grover talked to him off screen. They could have a segment with Mumford, even if Jerry wasn't available and they had to find a new puppeteer.
Anyway, since I've seen more...
I guess I see what you mean. It just seems like they're running out of ideas for TG. I mean, I haven't seen any new ones of those this season. Still it would be a good idea to have the endings vary. Again, I did like the ending scene the other day with Abby talking to Baby Marco. That...
Wow, another Gina the Vet story. I didn't see that part. This might become the new "Trash Gordon." Lol.
By the way, could you elaborate on who some of those celebs were? I was thinking the guy who described his family was Al Roker, but I'm not sure.
Also, who were they in the "Take a...
Yeah. I saw that on 'You Tube' recently. I'm glad Goldilocks still appears every once in a while.
The sad part about that is that kids who started watching the show this season wouldn't know who Big Bird was, but they'd know Elmo and Abby. That's something the writers should take into...
I don't know. Gordon's been in every ep for the past few years if you count when he does voice overs for the sponsors of the show. I'd be more excited about Bob or Susan or even Gabi. Where has she been hiding?
That part I missed, but I should have guessed Elmo was there somewhere. It's kind...
Well, it was back in 1994 to celebrate the 25th Anniversary. I'm not sure if it was nationwide or just my local station, but it started with the Firehouse special. Then I believe they played "Put Down the Duckie: A Sesame Street Special." Then I think they did "Sesame Street Jam: A Musical...
Wow! Elmo's back to being in the background just like in the old days. I'd like to see that more often, but I'm guessing he'll probably get quite a bit more airtime this season.
My work schedule got changed around so I did see some of today's show. I missed a few parts because my brother was in at the time. Anyway, here are my comments...
And a multiple-part story too. I guess that's the pattern. When stories are in multiple parts they don't show Elmo's World so...
I hadn't thought of that, but you're right. They did reuse old songs, but they were all redone. That is one way "The Street We Live On" was an improvement there. They showed a lot of old clips. I liked how at the end, they had a clip for each year. I think for the 40th Anniversary, they...
