I agree. No offense, Mike. But every time we discuss something like this you always say that. With people like Carroll or Bob McGrath or Loretta Long phasing out of the show, (being in just a few episodes per season) it's getting close to the time. We have a right to state our opinions...

I believe you mean 'Gina.' She adopted baby Marco from Guatemala last season. Anyway, I don't think she was the same actress who played the lady pirate. I know 'Allison Bartlett-O-Reily' plays Gina. The name of the actress who played the pirate escapes me.

Yeah, they seem to have a different cold opening every season. I wonder what's in store for next year.

Alright, now for my thought on 'Sleeping Grouchy.' Count, now I see what you mean about why they should have aired the segment about Maria and Luis at the museum It did seem to fit in with the episodes theme. When I first read that, I sort of thought you were talking about a different...

I'm a bit confused, are you saying episodes without EW are 'new to the show.' That's possible. After all, Abby was new last year and she only appeared in three episodes. This season she appeared in every episode. That could be the case with Elmo's World-less episodes. There might be more of...

Yeah. I kind of expected that, but I was thinking he wouldn't figure it out until the end of his scene. Similar to the 'letter of the day' segments... Anyway, it's just a thought I had. Nothing to really speculate on. Well, I didn't hear the voice, but it's possible. Even though a...

I sort of liked that the street story continued through the show. I wouldn't consider this a mulitiple part story like the 'word dog' story or the 'fairy tale emergency' story. If that was the case, we wouldn't have seen "Elmo's World." I'd say this is more or less like season 34 with the...

Rats I guess I'll research Muppet Wiki and see what they say on that.

I agree. I was watching Elmo Saves Christmas on YouTube and noticed Bob was pretty active there. Too bad we don't have more of him in new material. Yeah. After Frank's retirement I think he gave Cookie Monster to Eric. Then the writers gave him to David to allow more interaction between...

I see. Thanks for that info. I'd still like to know about when 'wocka wocka' originated. I haven't really heard it outside of the movies and on 'Muppet Babies.'

Oh, I get it. Kermit didn't want to accept any imitations. He'd rather see the real thing. I kind of agree with what SgtGonzo said though, after all Kermit's nervous breakdown after the Peter Sellers ep was mentioned at the episode guides as well. Okay, here's a new one. Did Fozzie's...

So Abby appeared twice on the show? That kind of worries me, because this is sort of how all this Elmo-mania got started. They put a character in just a bit at a time, then more often until they start to overdo it. I've been super-busy today so I only got to watch up to the part with Elmo's...

Yeah. I've noticed there have been a few eps in the last season where Bean didn't appear. I guess either those were produced before he was written into the show or that he was just one of those characters who just popped up on occassion like Bunsen and Beaker. The longer opening was...

Yeah, Susan babysitting might be the most logical explanation, unless she's still working as a nurse at the hospital. I guess it's been quite a few seasons since that has been referenced.

Yeah. That was sesaon 34, because I remember they aired episodes from that year during the time they were airing season 36. They didn't air season 33 that year because the format was so different. But I do remember seeing that season 34 episode during the time they aired season 36. I guess...

I see. Maybe it was from sometime in the 90s when Steve started performing Ernie. I'm not exactly sure when the brighter orange Ernie with shorter hair actually came out. I might want to look that up. Anyway, thanks for the info.

What I liked about the street story was that for once, there was continuity. I remember the episode from a few years ago where Baby Bear was jealous of Curly Bear. They even had flashbacks from previous episodes. That's something I wish they would do more often. Another thought I had is that...

Yeah, it seems like Kermit and Mickey are good friends. After all, he seemed to enjoy doing the 'Mickey Mouse Club' thing on that episode of 'Muppets Tonight!" So that's sort of why it's beyond my realm of understanding why :) wouldn't like Mickey Moose.

By the way, did Jerry actually do the puppetry for the Count or did he just loop in the voice, or could you tell either way? Just wondering, because I hear that these days he usually loops in the dialog for his characters on "Sesame Street."

You mean Kermit is jealous of Mickey Mouse? I hadn't thought of that before, but you may be right. Though they did get along well in the "Muppets at Walt Disney World" special. Just something to think about.
