    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Who knows? It doesn't seem like many people recorded season 11 episodes in 1979-1980, but that doesn't mean nobody did (maybe they just haven't come forward yet). After all, there is somebody who recorded and uploaded a number of season 10 episodes back in 1978-1979 (and the fans were not aware...

    Worst Muppet Show Episodes

    For those who would happily dump one episode for a different guest, would you replace the whole episode, or just the guest star parts?

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Yeah, I don't know why, but I thought some of the animal orchestra actions were a bit scary, but I can't really remember which ones were scary or unnerving (and I've been thinking people don't forget what scared them). Sesame Street Special had a number of things that either scared me or I...

    Does Sesame Street do parodies any more?

    So they've cut down on the celebrities in six years. Though during this time there have been two celebrity montage segments (Rubber Duckie and that counting to 50 by 5 segment). I keep feeling like there's another that I can't quite think of. Even with them cutting down on parodies, it is...

    Does Sesame Street do parodies any more?

    While I haven't watched much of the show since the move to HBO, I feel like they didn't really cut back on celebrity appearances. Seems they still have those as often as before (aside from dropping the daily Word of the Day segments).

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    Does Piri's name appear in the credits? Since the fans didn't know it was Piri instead of Petey, I assume the credits would have spelled it as Petey. I think the wiki had the actors name credited (which I forget off-hand), if so that would have come from something that would list his character...

    Chris Langham Muppet Show episode missing on Disney+

    If only they'd release the Playhouse Video compilations, Children's Songs and Stories has Friendship, The Gnu, and scenes from the Brooke Shields episode (I wonder if they'd need to renegotiate those, considering they had cleared the rights for the original home video releases).

    Chris Langham Muppet Show episode missing on Disney+

    One thing I thought about is that Disney just didn't want to confirm the reason to Toughpigs while they did confirm the lack of Brooke Shields is music rights issues. They could have lied and said both were due to music rights, how would the fans be able to check on that (they didn't even say...

    Tee Collins X-Xylophone segment

    Looking at the Muppet Wiki page on Tee Collins, the main body of the article mentions an "X-xylophone" segment he did, with a quote saying "it was hard coming up with a happy word for the letter X" (and now the link it's sourced from no longer works). But then there's a gallery of his segments...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    I dreamt I was watching a stage production of The Frog Prince, and it was a bit extended from the special. As I woke up this morning I thought I could even detail the whole thing from start to finish, but now I'm starting to forget some. But there were three instances where Robin went to the...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    Watching all those street scenes with Don Music, it seems he didn't bang on the head that often in street scenes as he did in the sketches with Kermit. I thought about asking "geeze, did he ever bang his head on the piano in the street scenes?" But I see that he did in his last appearance (which...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    In that one with Bob, Susan, and Telly, when Don introduces himself at the beginning ("They call me Mr. Music. Why? Well, because that's my name. Don Music to be exact. And by coincidence I happen to play music, sing music, and write music") should have been his debut appearance, but it came...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    I was slightly thrown off. It said "1972 street scenes" and I mistakenly thought it was street scenes from the year 1972. It is kind of distinctive when episode numbers match years that the show has been on the air.

    Dog City General Discussion

    I watched the show when it was originally on. I don't think I knew anyone else who really watched it (well, I think it was on at 8 in the morning, not sure how likely others are up that early.... I wonder how I got up that early, as I didn't use an alarm clock and don't remember asking my...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    Watching the scenes from episode 1875, with Snuffy buying pants and having to pay, I wonder, who saw him pay? Somebody at the store must have seen him pay for the pants. Maybe they were too busy to see who was buying what, or maybe they actually had a Snuffleupagus employed (I was actually...

    The Official Top 10 Anything...

    One thing I like about Monkey Business is that it's one of the few to feature them all (whether Zeppo is included or not) as a group from start to finish. Most of them begin with Chico and Harpo as a duo who meet and join Groucho later on, with Groucho and Zeppo being a separate duo (if Zeppo is...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    This is How I'm Made is interesting. I saw it only aired in one episode, I wonder what is wrong with it. I can't really decide if it's really great or just ordinary. With so many segments it could probably be hard to air everything every season, but until season 29 it would have been possible to...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    I forgot to add that pretty much all of the songs on the first Sesame Street album were rerecorded, even if they had the same characters and performers. Some songs had completely different singers. So for the album, they most likely replaced the hippie Anything Muppets with monsters (the...
