There was a made for TV biopic on the film that gave some explanations (though I always questioned whether they would be canon), with the explanation that the Howells always bring plenty of clothing everywhere they go just in case (and offered similar explanations for the girls - Ginger did the...

I didn't expect this, but it turns out that The King Banishes the Letter P appeared in at least one episode presented the way it was in Learning About Letters, including that videos wrap-arounds replacing the original Luis scenes. https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_2299 The segment, in...

I had thought the "Cookie Shark" song came from the Sesame Oceans street story (and that one had previously been available in the Elmo and Cookie Monster Supersized Fun video, which I have, I guess I never paid much attention to that particular episode), so I was surprised to see that street...

I am watching Monster Hits: Rock and Rhyme, and it is a lot different than I expected. I was thinking each song would be a mash-up of multiple segments, but I see that it includes full street stories and some film/animation inserts that have nothing to do with monsters (or even rhymes). Though...

Watching the Sherman the Hoppity Hop clip again, and I am now noticing that the seam that runs through the middle of Kermit's face is more noticeable than on the usual Kermit. Don't know if that's to emphasize that he's made like an invention (though I also notice it when he is moving) or if it...

Nick at Nite ran Mork and Mindy long before Happy Days (by which time M&M left the channel's line-up), and The Facts of Life a year before Diff'Rent Strokes.

Some time ago, I have seen one user mention a few times that he doubted the names of Chrissy and Rockin' Richard (and maybe Big Jeffy) were not meant to be canon since they were first mentioned in an audio-only song. But after thinking more about it, I have thought about how the voices were...

The Big Bang Theory airs all the time on TBS (and is heavily in syndication), so it's already getting plenty of exposure. Who cares if it's on Nick at Nite or not (I haven't watched Nick at Nite in the last few years)? I am surprised to hear that they are already adding reruns of Young...

I've seen some talk on talk pages that suggested they were finished, I wasn't sure if they were really close or if they were complete but still needed some images. I thought I saw somebody on this forum remember an episode where Big Bird tries to get Uncle Wally to meet Snuffy, only for Wally...

This looks like a crazy one: https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_2069 At one point, Big Bird decides against telling Luis and David that Snuffy was behind using the large rock because he knew they wouldn't believe him. Makes me wonder if there's any other instances where Big Bird just...

Recently, I've noticed that various recurring sketches/identities of Grover took a bit of a break during seasons 11-20. During the 1970s, we got a good number of Waiter Grover, Super Grover, Professor Grover, and Marshall Grover, then in the 1980s those were scarce, and then in the 1990s most of...

That Sesame Street News segment is so awesome. I wasn't expecting Sherman to have a robotic-sounding voice. In most of the Dr. Nobel Price segments, he covers his invention under a blue blanket, here it's a pink blanket. But it was three or four years since the previous News segments with Dr...

In season 16, Don Music wrote a song titled "Imagine That", one year before the more famous Sesame Street song of the same title. https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_2043 For a long time I thought the Ernie version came from season 16 as opposed to 17. Not sure if I saw some fans...

Here's one that looks awesome, and there's a clip that appeared in a montage in Sesame Street: 20 and Still Counting that I had always been curious about (and mistakenly assumed it was from when Big Bird first got Radar). https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_2152

Yes (and I don't know if it's really iconic, as much as it seems like it should be iconic).

Big Bird on a carousel: I feel like part of the segment with Big Bird on the carousel has been in clip montages (I know it's in the "What a Bird!" montage in the 20th anniversary special) and the image in a few publications (I'm pretty sure that it's in that Big Boy comic on the Muppets)...

I thought of a few more segments from seasons 10 and 11 that Frank Oz did that I forgot to note: In season 10, he did some Anything Muppets in Don Music's Alphabet Song, and I can hear his voice as one of the back-up singers in Twinkle Twinkle. In season 11, he performed some of the Pipet...

In the last couple of days, I have gone through various sketch guides on Muppet Wiki to determine how often Frank Oz performed each year on Sesame Street in seasons 10-19. I'm guessing seasons 10 and 11 are most likely to have a lot of segments where we don't know Frank performed, maybe some AM...

I think the show still aired segments from the 1990s for a few years after the switch to HD in season 39.

I'm sure that after a while, it'd be hard to re-air every segment each season - even back when there were 130 episodes that did not have to dedicate portions of the show to fairly long daily segments like Elmo's World (and even if you ignore all the segments that were officially pulled from...
