This one is about the announcement, the other one is the discussion of the special when it airs.

I've only watched one full episode, but I did watch all the bonuses. Here's some initial thoughts: It's a shame about the theme song, but it's not too jarring. Is it me or is the contrast on all the material kinda dark? It looks better than the 40 Years DVD; most of the clips had a weird...

I say, keep going until season 30.

Um. This was a blessing in disguise for you. Besides, the CD is just audio from the special itself, not the recordings or anything. You're just as well off ripping the songs from the DVD and converting them to mp3.

Picked up my copy; liking what I see so far! I perusing the bonus features first; The Chaplin bit was actually very funny. I kinda wish they'd had more segments on here; as much as there are repeats from the 40 Years disc and stuff online, it's great they still could put some rare bits like that...

I had a feeling they would just air the "Friends to the Rescue" video, but nope, they re-edited the whole thing from scratch. That's great of them.

My copy arrived earlier today, but I can't pick it up from the office until eight. Phooey. But, since the price went down since I ordered it, I got $5 back!

If they did need to pay royalties for the theme, I don't see why they simply didn't just not bother with various other rights. Clearly, the most expensive things they had to clear are "Happy Birthday" and the Star Wars characters; the latter is just a bonus clip and the former is part of the...

Let's call it "Shirley".

Maybe "A Muppet Film That Is".

Part of the reason for that is they went with 2 discs instead of 3. So we ended up with three full episodes on one disc, which doesn't leave much space for other material. I guess to keep it consistent, they used the same number of clips per season and filled up the spare space on disc 2 with...

Well well well. Looks like Obama's the winner type guy

Are you talking about this image: 'Cause that's from the show's on-screen adaptation of the album, "The Count Counts."

Don't forget today's ep., all election themed!

Samsies.

Is "Cooperation Song" the one with the Anything Muppets making the garden?

I was reading the article and their source for the release date is IMDB. I don't trust that much at all.

Me too; I just wish Amazon would ship it already. :grr:

While I don't care for the edits, I'm actually glad "Honk Around the Clock" made it onto the set; it's my favorite all-time Sesame song. "I Want to Count" isn't one of their best spoofs anyway and they don't do any actual counting until the ending vamp.

I'm pretty sure Michael just did the puppeteering for her, not the voice. "Waivin' Goodbye" is clearly Fran singing.
