Thanks for that info, Ziffel. Since the season two disk won't come out until the summer, it would be good to see that clip so I know what I have to look forward too.
Yeah. I was a little surprised when I heard the mention of Sam in that because I didn't think he was on the show at the time. If they could mention long-lost characters around that time, why won't they do it now?
Yeah. I'm guessing you're referring to the Cloris Leechman episode. Timelife never released that one, so for info on that one I just had to rely on "The Muppet Show" book and the guide here. It would be good to see that ep in it's entirety.
I was also interested in hearing that they...
I see what you mean. I saw the clip of "Muppets Celebrate Jim Henson" on You Tube and there Steve's Kermit sounded more like a younger version of Kermit. He's really improved on the voice since then.
Hmmm, Twiddlebugs? There are some other clips that could be shown on there. I haven't seen those in ages.
Well, that one was played on the show this season. That's good news.
That was really good. I especially liked the song "I Love Cash" and the Bert and Ernie scene and of course the running gag with the wrecking ball. I wish they would have shown more inserts like the last one. I also would like to have seen the "Mad Luis." Overall, I enjoyed that.
Yeah. That would make an interesting fan fic. Bill Smith, what he does for a living. After all, as far is I know he wasn't on the show other than in that one sketch, so his true identity is left to the imagination.
Yeah, that's what I hear about Hal Miller too. I guess the writers felt that some actors just weren't cutting it.
Yeah. You'd think they would have at least mentioned Linda when Bob's neice Samara was introduced. I mean the characters in that ep knew her, so they should have understood...
Well, you never know. I'm not sure how long TG will last. Roscoe Orman's not as young as he used to be, so he might not stay with that regular segment. Besides, Big Bird said the letter and the number in the "Little Big Bird" episode and probably in the magic ukelele ep as well. Plus we...
I'm assuming that it wasn't the first one, considering he used to be called 'Sonny Friendly.' No connection to the other Sonny Friendly that was on the show later on. So I'm not sure when Guy's earliest appearance was. Anyway, I saw "The Memory Game" today and I didn't get the pipe salesman...
Yeah, I know there were quite a few. There was one where Cookie told her about the 'K' word 'cowabunga.' Though I always spelled it with a 'c.' Then there's the one with the letter Z where she gives him a plate of cookies to distract him, but he still ends up eating the 'z.' That's one of my...
Real good so far. The only thing is there seems to be a continuity error. When the story started, Alan was running the store. Now, it seems like we're back to the 70s or 80s when Mr. Hooper ran the store and Snuffy was 'imaginary.' Other than that, I enjoyed reading it. I look forward to...
Yeah. I've seen that one on 'You Tube.' I picked up right away that it wasn't Carroll. I guess they usually get Matt to do Big Bird's talk show appearances while Carroll's busy with other things. One exception I want to mention though: That was definately Carroll as BB on "Dr. Phil." I...
Hmmm. I didn't notice Piggy being thinner. The biggest change in her appearance lately was her hair. About the voice, I didn't have too much of a problem. I thought Eric does fine with Piggy in the Pizza Hut ads. It's more or less talk show appearances where she doesn't sound quite right...
Thanks. I didn't mean to criticize or anything. I guess I was more or less blaming "Sesame Workshop" for messing with the original. Anyway, I look forward to seeing that.
I think it would have been hard to find a new actor to take Northern's place. Maybe they felt that kids wouldn't have been comfortable with a new David. Though I see what you're saying, considering they have done that with Gordon, but that was back in the 70s and I guess they had different...
Yeah. I remember they counted up to 40 in the 80s, but I don't think they ever had a number of the day above 20. Even if they did have a sketch with a higher number like in Numberella or 24, they still used a different number. I could be wrong on this, but I think that's the case.
