    Celebrating Jerry Juhl

    We will miss you, Jerry Juhl Wow! I can't really say that I know Jerry Juhl- only know of him and his work. But it's really saddening to hear that he has passed away. He has been one of the greatest Muppet writers and wrote some of the best and most loved specials that I like- particularly...

    appearances by Angus McGonacle

    I don't know of any other Angus McGonagle appearances (I didn't even know of the ones listed beyond the "Star Wars" episode- cool! I'll have to look for them) but I do know of an awesomely cool reference to Angus McGonagle's appearance on the "Star Wars" episode. If anyone's ever seen the...

    Betty Lou and Prarie Dawn Appreciation Thread

    Glad someone brought this up! I've always liked Prairie Dawn and Betty Lou, as they've always been part of the gang. But I have a question regarding the two. I'm pretty sure that Prairie Dawn is the predominant one who shows up now on Sesame Street and Betty Lou pretty much doesn't show up at...

    1970s, 1980s, and 1990s PBS and CTW video clips

    No problem. I figured some others would enjoy it. Anyone else remember Square One? (used to love that one)

    Name of that C-64 game with Gonzo???

    As was said, Commodore 64 was a great computer system around in the early 1980s- which had some great video games available. I believe I've heard of the Kermit Storyteller game for C64 that was mentioned, and I've definitely heard of that Pigs in Space game for Atari 2600. I've seen pictures...

    1970s, 1980s, and 1990s PBS and CTW video clips

    Where could I...

    Limewire.com (It's a peer to peer program like Kazaa, although without the spyware, as near as I can tell. There's tons of great vintage Sesame Street clips floating around on there, including some Monsterpiece Theatre and Grover the Waiter sketches.) :zany: :)

    Sesame Street Character Theme Songs

    humans in SS videos

    Okay, I know who Willy is now. Actually, I remember Big Bird saying "hi" to him in "Follow That Bird" now that I think about it. Thanks for the quick answer. :)

    Jim Henson Co. Heading into Anime Industry

    I just saw a Sesame Street comic (well, sorta) from Tokyopop at the local comic shop today! :-) (It wasn't exactly a comic- It was pictures from the show with words pasted in word bubbles on them. It starred Zoey, Elmo and Gabi flying kites.

    Forgive my ignorance, but who's Willy? :confused: :eek:

    Who are these songs by?

    "Turn, Turn, Turn" is definitely by The Byrds and I'm pretty sure that's the version used in the first episode of The Wonder Years! (which is an awesome 1980s show by the way) I love the "Turn, Turn, Turn" song mainly because its lyrics are almost totally taken from Ecclesiastes...

    A Sesame Street Christmas Speical

    jobedo, you sure you're not referring to "Christmas Eve on Sesame Street"? I know the local library will probably have that, but the special Erine81981 is talking about, I highly doubt was released on video. You can see 2 screen captures at "A Muppety Christmas" web site...

    There's no business like shoe business..

    Yes, I've seen "Muppet Classic Theatre" a couple times and it's not as bad as some make it out to be. There are a couple of characters who show up that don't always get as used much nowadays, including Robin. Also, Andy and Randy Pig show up prior to their "Muppets Tonight" appearances. Gonzo...

    Kermit's Christmas Capers coming this December

    Seems like the Muppets are jumping pretty quickly into another TV-movie after just recently finishing "The Muppets' Wizard of Oz", but I guess that's a good thing. In any case, I don't think you can ever have too many Christmas movies, (coming from a Christmas movie and music lover! :) ) so I...

    I'm pretty sure Willy(?) (or did you mean Uncle Wally?) and Mr. Macintosh weren't in this video.
