I think I remember that one. Only, I thought it was a group of people lining up to form the letters. I also remember hearing an echo when they shouted: A-A! B-B! and so on.

Which one was it? His "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" or shall I say "Whistle, Whistle Little Bird" is at the SSLA. And I heard "Mary Had a Bicycle" on Muppet Central Radio yesterday. Was it either one of those? Just wondering.

My guess is that they don't have room for it with all these new segments and everything.
It's strange I was flipping through channels today and I came across "Sesame Street." I was a little bit surprised to see an animated segment. I thought since they changed the format, they don't...

Good observations. I wonder how many other movies have hidden gags. Like that. I remember the "Jim" and "Frank" cages when Rowlf worked at that kennel on TMTM. There were also a few things like that on "The Muppet Show." Someone used a magic spell that went "zleog evad onzog" (Gonzo...

I thought it was 1985. That's what most sources say. Anyway, I remember when Snuffy was "imaginary." That was kind of upsetting that nobody would believe Big Bird. On the other hand, I've seen some message boards where people wished that Snuffy HADN'T been introduced to people. They...

There was "Ali Baba and the 40 Theives." They actually didn't show that one, because the theives insisted that all 40 of them were introduced. That took so long, they ran out of time. :p

I know what you mean. When Kermit co-hosted "The Roseanne Show," they kept him there for the whole show. They should have done that with Pepe. I fast forwarded through most parts that didn't show him.

I have to agree, I liked his "pig + shrimp" comment. The funny thing is, I thought that Pepe didn't like to be called a shrimp. Anyway, I wish they could have showed more of them.
By the way, not to change to subject, but who made the new "smilie" thingies, those are pretty cool! :D...
As I was trying to say before I was so RUDELY interruped...
by my University's super-slow Internet connection.....
Yeah. Steve's been doing Ernie for about ten years now, but Eric's Bert is pretty new. I'm guessing that sketch probably came from some time in the 90s. I also wonder about...

If it's from this season, wouldn't it be Eric Jacobson adlibing Bert's lines, rather than Frank Oz? I've heard the original on Muppet Central Radio, it's possible that they might play Ernie and Bert's version too, but I'm just guessing.

I love that scene in the "Alice in Wonderland" episode. That's classic. Yeah. Frank was really great with all his characters, it's too bad he's retired. If not, we might see more of Marvin these days.

That's a tough one. I know Rowlf the Dog was retired as a tribute to Jim, but that's because he was considered his signature character. I probably will go with the reason that they couldn't find a voice for Guy Smiley. It shouldn't be too hard though. Steve Whitemire took over a...

Sorry. The copy I have was taped off of ABC and they don't show what happens during the end credits. I also remember reading something about some kind of rock-character telling a joke to Long John during the credits.

Oh, yeah. I was surprised when Long John Silver used the "d" and "h" words in his speech, but I guess I shouldn't have been for two reasons...
A. He's not a Muppet.
B. When he said h***, he was referring to the place. Also, he didn't really say da**, he said damnation, which...
