    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    While there is a picture from the original Up and Down, taken from the book Sesame Street Book of Puzzlers, there’s not yet a screenshot of the AMs singing the bulk of the song. And actually, as I look at the pages for both episode 60 and “Up and Down”, that image is no longer on either page.

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Aside from the lost episodes, is there any evidence that they have skipped any episodes (the website shows what all is available)?

    The "You know what?" thread

    I have had the Marx Brothers on my mind quite a bit lately, been watching several of the movies as well as having recently subscribed to the Marx Brothers Council podcast. One thing I've been thinking about, that was discussed on the podcast at least, is that Chico Marx gets discussed and...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    This reminds me a little of how sesamestreet.org seemed to stop adding new classic clips in 2010, with the exception of a brief period in 2011 where they added a lot of classic clips, many of them rare clips with rare characters (including the first time many of us got to hear Aristotle's voice...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    I thought they uploaded plenty of classic clips during the anniversary. Though many of them were "collections" videos of multiple clips or mash-ups of clips (not to mention the "Sesame Street Rewind" series which I wish they didn't discontinue).

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    I had wondered about them not releasing classic clips on their channel since March. Maybe it is more important to focus on what they’ve been doing, but wouldn’t it be safer/more social distancing to put existing clips online than getting together to do all these segments? And I know, some are...

    "Major and important" Muppet announcement coming soon

    Many politically incorrect cartoons were also included in the Walt Disney Treasures line, often with an introduction/disclaimer by Leonard Maltin before the cartoons.

    Little things we've noticed

    It seems like in every sketch in which a Muppet is shown taking a bath, the bath tub is reasonably small and looks like it's portable and separate from the wall and floor, as opposed to being sculpted into the back wall. Pretty much every bath tub I have seen in a home is sculpted into the...

    Little things we've noticed

    I wonder how likely it would have been for Jim Henson to perform a one-shot character with no dialogue by season 16. He did continue to perform one shot characters in the late 1980s, I guess it is hard to know whether he actually did do a character with no dialogue without behind the scenes...

    Questions about anything

    Is it just me, or is Goldeneye better known as a video game than as a movie? I feel like people talk about the video game all the time, I guess it’s one of the best video game adaptations of a movie. Can’t think of many other video game adaptations of movies that get that kind of praise (most...

    "Major and important" Muppet announcement coming soon

    I’ve heard that Disney Plus does include bonus features with some of its movies. Wouldn’t it be great if, as a bonus feature, the site included all of the episode-specific promos to go along with each episode?

    The evolution of Telly

    The info was on the page long before they got their trusted sources, when the only sources were either program guides at The CTW Archives or having the actual episodes themselves. I recall seeing somebody mention that Telly was mentioned in that guide, I looked on the page after they compiled a...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    I dreamt I went somewhere where I could meet Camille Bonora, enjoyed talking with her but whenever I tried asking something about her Muppet work or tried to compliment some of her work, she suddenly got distracted by others. And this was not a fan convention or anything like that. Actually, it...

    The evolution of Telly

    Actually that info comes from the program guide (okay, so it likely was in an early draft of the script). Many of the program guides have a note that the printing deadlines come before the final edits and some segments listed don't appear, and the wiki has uncovered many instances where the...

    Galaxy Con: Sesame Street Cast on Sunday January 24th

    One of those interesting things is that the ones who charge more for a session also get less time with fans. I guess the bigger names get more money, could it be that they also charge more for less time because they expect more people to want to interact with them? It would be interesting to...

    Galaxy Con: Sesame Street Cast on Sunday January 24th

    I thought I saw one on Facebook somewhere after it happened. EDIT: I found it on Emilio Delgardo's Facebook page.

    Galaxy Con: Sesame Street Cast on Sunday January 24th

    I watched the live stream and chatted with Roscoe Orman. It was fun. There was some interesting things in the video chat (which will probably be posted to YouTube soon). They said that they dropped the Trash Gordon segments, I forget the wording but I think it was that people didn't like the...

    Little things we've noticed

    Thinking about how in season 16 Gordon, Maria, and Linda now believe in Snuffy, and that they were planning for him to be seen by the adults soon, I feel like many of the cases where the others miss out on seeing Snuffy are more realistic than before. And there are some that seem more in line...

    The "You know what?" thread

    I've known that since I started watching the show. In fact, I did not know about Molly Ringwald at all until around the time Nick at Nite started airing the show, I saw something online just before reruns premiered there that mentioned her early role before becoming famous. It is kinda cool to...

    Greg the Bunny

    It seems like adults have always liked animation better than puppets. There's been many primetime and adult puppet shows that have been hits (but there's also been a lot of failed primetime/adult animated shows and films). Of course we all know that Jim Henson had trouble getting networks...
