    HBO Max removes nearly 200 Sesame Street episodes, modern specials, and the Not-Too-Late Show with Elmo

    Another good punchline would be "the same episodes can/will be viewed there, right?"

    Sesame Workshop/Shout! Factory Deal

    Shout! just announced on its Facebook page (haven’t seen a Wiki page yet) a November release called My Favorite Holidays. Considering there’s been so many episodes (not specials) in the last few years involving specific holidays, this is a good idea. and I hope it has both the News segments...

    HBO Max removes nearly 200 Sesame Street episodes, modern specials, and the Not-Too-Late Show with Elmo

    Somebody on the Toughpigs forum said, not surprisingly, that they are phasing out HBO Max. If HBO Max discontinues, I wonder if Sesame Street will go to the Discovery app or what.

    Little things we've noticed

    Recently, it was discovered that the little monster in the first season “here and there” sketch was named Billy. Until recently, he had been listed on the wiki as Baby Monster. the name Billy was also used for the little monster in the remake with Grover and Herry. I guess maybe that’s why he...

    Why was Bedtime Stories and Songs edited?

    So that’s seasons 16 and 18. Long before his last new appearance (though he sort of banged his head in a season 22 episode). I had figured the complaints and decision to drop him came in season 29, the last to show his old segments (and Sesame Street Unpaved said he was no longer on the show)...

    Why was Bedtime Stories and Songs edited?

    On the subject, did Don Music ever bang his head in street scenes (okay, I think he did when Hooper's Store opened)? Seems like in nearly all the ones I know of, he does not bang his head. It's as if that running gag was actually dropped long before Richard Hunt died, even if they continued...

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Yes. The article mentions the first and last episodes to include it. It has appeared in 12 episodes. Clicking "what links here" on the first image can lead to "what links here" and a list of all episodes it was in (you have to be signed in to Muppet Wiki to see "what links here" for the image).

    HBO Max removes nearly 200 Sesame Street episodes, modern specials, and the Not-Too-Late Show with Elmo

    I had been tempted to subscribe to HBO Max and never did (and when I heard about down things leaving the services, I was considering doing the free trial at least and watch as many classic episodes as possible). I had actually resisted watching street scenes that were unavailable until HBO Max...

    Shortened Muppet Show intro

    And it doesn't say what network it was? My guess would be Odyssey, I hear they cut a lot for time.

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    Yeah, that wasn’t particularly high on my wishlist of rare clips to see (not even for proto-Monotones), so I am surprised by how much I liked it.

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    I recently found that somebody uploaded a ton of rare clips from the first two seasons. I keep forgetting the name of the channel, but he’s uploaded such clips as the original Up and Down, the full original Rubber Duckie, Bob reading a story about the letter F, one of the Rufus appearances, Can...

    It's me Muppet Baby Fozzie and Scooter

    Do you do virtual con appearances like GalaxyCon Live (off-hand I don't know what other cons do virtual Q&As, I think Comic Con does)?

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    The wiki has images from episode 1411. Looking at the image for the closing scene, where Bruno transports a grouch who is not Oscar, is surprising. I thought it'd be the usual set-up - Bruno with trash can, but a different grouch (and Brian Meehl performing Bruno as a result.... or could they...

    "Sesame Street Classics" HBO Max Rollouts

    There haven’t been that many times when more classic episodes have been added (seems like at least once a year) and April was only a few months ago.

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    Somehow, the Sesame Street News segment where Dr. Noble Price invents slushabouts has been online since February, and I had not known until this week. Also, Muppet Wiki has uploaded the Tinkly Table sketch to its social media pages (right now I am struggling with sharing the link), which...

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Looks like there is an eighth season episode that is lost that was not previously noted.

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Thread

    One of the big criticisms of the first Nintendo Entertainment System game is that Krang does not appear. But today I read in a TMNT Facebook group that they developed the game before the show premiered in Japan, and didn't have much to go by outside of the show bible. I wonder how far along in...

    Little things we've noticed

    Considering that Sesame Street: 20 and Still Counting aired on a Friday night, known as the "friday night death slot", and was in the same time slot as The Jim Henson Hour, which was known for having low ratings (seems it was often last in its timeslot and among the lowest ratings for the week)...

    Little things we've noticed

    Muppet Wiki only confirms a handful of performers in the Adventure number. I was watching last night, and I really don't think Jerry Nelson was performing the Count, though his voice is heard. I'd also be surprised if Frank Oz did Grover there. Don't know who did Ernie, the performance looks...
