    Yeah, at first I didn't think they'd show a record image, then I heard some people bring up the possibility somewhere. Now I wonder if they were named in the script for the first appearance of Mad (assuming the first script doesn't just list the song title with no scripted info, which I've...

    Little things we've noticed

    The first time Little Jerry and the Monotones were referred to by name was in a season two episode where somebody buys a Little Jerry and the Monotones album. I don't think the wiki has images from that episode yet, who knows if a cover image is shown or if it's a different Little Jerry and the...

    Little things we've noticed

    After the talk about Guy Smiley’s few appearances in the early years, I decided to check, and it looks to me like Guy Smiley made an average of five appearances or less per season when Jim Henson was performing him. Of course this does not count segments where he’s mainly just in the background...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    Missed when episode 2030 was uploaded a few months ago (or I probably forgot the episode number for that one). The library scenes are interesting, in that it's probably the most Bruno spoke in full sentences (though they are all the same basic sentence - "No no no, I want to hear the story"). I...

    Any Ernst Fans?

    A few nights ago I saw Ernest Goes to School for the first time in years. It's interesting, I can't tell why the guy from the school board clearly wants to shut down the school. I had forgotten about the scenes with Rodney doing school announcements, yet I also feel there's less of those than...

    Cool Counting Collection: MC Style

    I didn't see the last post about how some choices were made until now. Good points on the number 8 segments involving The Count. On one hand, the real Cool Counting Collection is the first home video release of Eight is Great and Cloud 9, on the other, I do like Eight Beautiful Notes and...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    Last night I dreamt…. I guess I was back in school again, but they had the Sesame Street cast do a speech or something, and I got to hang out with Sonia Manzano for the day, with her coming with me to classes.

    TV Tropes

    Was thinking about one trivia trope, The Danza, where an actor plays a character with the same first name. The trope namer is Tony Danza, who almost always plays a character named Tony on a television series (though he voiced a character named Mickey on Baby Talk). Shouldn't this be called The...

    Oscar should like onions. They are disgusting, and grouches would like disgusting foods.

    Little things we've noticed

    It seems like the end credits sequence for Sesame Street: 20 and Still Counting is rare. It was cut from the DVD release, and I don’t think it’s ever been online (and I have searched). Even before it came to DVD, the end credits were not included in YouTube uploads. There’s a few uploads of...

    Nick at Nite Thread

    I don’t think talking about all the marathons of a different show would be that long or big a deal. Many of the shows did have multiple marathons (and I’m not counting shows that got a Block Party Summer night), but I don’t think they got a ton of marathons. Some examples I recall: Happy Days...

    Little things we've noticed

    And after this, I remembered The Trading Game, which I had also thought was from the second season (for the same reasons). And I checked the season 3 segments page to see if either was a holdover segment from season 2 (neither are noted, I'm not sure if either shows up after season 16, when the...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    That is unfortunate, whatever is going on. I had gotten to see a lot to segments and street stories that I had really wanted to see thanks to you, and there are some that I was really hoping to see (maybe I should have tried asking). But there have been at least one or two others who have...

    Nick at Nite Thread

    I just got through the Mister Ed episode and didn't notice anything about that beyond talking about when it came to Nick at Nite and was on Nickelodeon's Summer Fan Club. Then I started another and saw that it lists its Nickelodeon run in text (as opposed to announcement). Still, if I did these...

    Nick at Nite Thread

    I first got Nickelodeon in 1992, surprised I don't remember Dixie. I remember being able to see Rugrats and Peanuts on Nick at Nite once (it was usually after my bedtime on Sundays), I recall seeing Snoopy's Getting Married Charlie Brown on Nick at Nite, can't remember which Rugrats episode I...

    Little things we've noticed

    Jerry Nelson worked with Jim before Sesame Street, when there wasn't a lot of work for all of Jim's crew, and he had to let him go since he was the newest hire, but would occasionally let him perform when needed. I don't know why he didn't ask him to do Sesame Street until after the first season...

    Richard's first vocal performance on SS

    His first performance with the Muppets was in The Great Santa Claus Switch, and Muppet Wiki says that he did voice a character.

    Little things we've noticed

    Didn't really notice Jim doing a lack of Anything Muppets in season two. Though in season one, the main performers were Jim, Frank, and Caroll, and it seems Caroll didn't get a lot of lead AM roles. Season two brought on Jerry Nelson, so they likely wanted to utilize him a lot. There were...
