    Little things we've noticed

    Seems like in a number of segments that had two tapings, one of the takes was only used in one episode (often its first appearance).

    Cheryl Ladd episode number

    Seems like the episode numbers are set in stone before the seasons begin, based on scheduled guest stars, and then based on the guests availability, taping order will change but the production order remains the same (and I guess if a guest star cancels their appearance, whoever replaces them...

    The Official Top 10 Anything...

    Looks like I can't edit this post anymore (and I already did to add films I forgot to mention the first post), but the movie I was listed as Hollywood Canteen is actually called Stage Door Canteen.

    Why was Dave Goelz not very involved on Sesame Street?

    Dave did talk about this in an interview Toughpigs did, I recall he said he didn't know why they had him do the show and he was just on for a day or two.

    Little things we've noticed

    In watching Christmas Eve on Sesame Street recently, I only now noticed that during the opening skating sequence, we never see the walk-around versions of the Muppets (aside from Big Bird) at the same time that we see the human cast. Even though it's obvious they are puppets, I guess they didn't...

    Select classic Sesame Street episodes now available for viewing online by AAPB

    With Max being a streaming site people pay for (and I assume most of us who got Max did so primarily for the long-unseen classic Sesame Street episodes), it's a wonder the AAPB chose to make those episodes available online for free, and the same edits as on Max (I assume the AAPB's copies are...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    I've recently been watching Fun and Fancy Free and The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad.... What was the point of the two segments in both movies having different narrators? Was it always planned that the stories would later be seen on their own? It's odd in Fun and Fancy Free. Jimminy...

    Diamond Select Toys to Produce new Muppet figures and mini mates!

    This is the first I heard it was confirmed another figure is coming after them. There have been a few cases in the DST line where only one character was packaged (Animal, The Swedish Chef), likely due to the large size of their accessories. That could be the case here.

    Little things we've noticed

    Recently I was looking at "what links here" for many of the Anything Muppet covers of popular songs, and found that most of them last aired in season five or sooner. The only cover I found that did air later (and many times) is season two's The Inch Worm, I can't remember which season was the...

    Songs you thought were the wrong segment

    yeah, I have done some “versus” threads for a few simple songs.

    The "You know what?" thread

    The Sirius channel '80s on 8 often includes short skits with a kid asking Teddy Ruxpin a question. We hear a sound that seems to imply pulling a lever or string. While I never had one, I believe the toy just played audio on a tape. But these short interstitials seem to be mixing Teddy with a...

    Songs you thought were the wrong segment

    Have there ever been any segments you saw way when you were young, then didn't see them for a long time, forgot the lyrics, and then when either hearing a song on an album or hearing people mention a song online, you mistakenly thought one of those songs was a segment in question? There's...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    It seems like Sesame Workshop has started a Sesame Street Fan Channel. I have actually noticed this for a few weeks. Classic clips that had been online for years must have been transferred over (based on when it says the clips were added), I did not know that was possible. Looks like classic...
