    Richard Hunt in Season 23

    Episode 2925 has a Forgetful Jones insert called "On a Roll with Cowboy Cole". Could this be what's being referred to? It's listed in a sandbox page of "unidentified segments", listing insert segments that the wiki does not have photos of. It also lists episodes the segments appear in, and...

    Early (pre-Kevin Clash) Elmo appearances (Brian Muehl and Richard Hunt)

    Do you suppose Martin Robinson's improvements of Snuffy came about because the cast finally got to see him? When Jerry Nelson (and Michael Earl) performed him, he was pretty much only seen with Big Bird and the kids, but five years after Martin took over, Snuffy could suddenly interact with...

    Episode info from trusted sources

    I have seen that. In fact I also recall seeing Sam the Robot mentioned in one season ten page a long time ago, one that was compiled using CTW Archives material. Makes me wonder if Brian Meehl really did take over as Sam, which is mentioned in the 40th anniversary book, but that's the only...

    Episode info from trusted sources

    A few weeks ago the wiki finally found the episode with the original rendition of "I Love Trash", episode 95. For years, the wiki had cited episode 96 as the episode with the original "ABC-DEF-GHI", though I don't really know the source (since that segment isn't listed at all in the CTW Archives...

    Monsterpiece Theater timeline speculation

    Muppet Wiki has full episode rundowns for every season 13 episode, neither Chariots of Fur or The Sound of Music appeared in any episodes from that season, so their debuts would have to have been in either season 14 or 15 (the earliest known appearance of both are season 15 episodes).

    Classic episodes you want to see

    After Muppet Wiki has recently been able to add a lot of episode pages from trusted sources, I've learned of a lot of episodes I really want to see. Episode 129 looks cool. This one has Oscar hosting the show, including interrupting the opening (I wonder if that's the first time the opening...

    Questions about anything

    Other franchises to think about with this thinking: Star Wars- is it most fun to talk about the original trilogy (which most fans tend to like the best, at least those who grew up with only those)? The prequel trilogy (which tends to get the most hate)? The current trilogy (which isn't...

    Does anybody think you're weird for watching Sesame Street?

    I can't remember if I've posted in this thread before (and don't feel like searching through all ten pages of posts before posting this), but I'd like to say they don't. Of course, as a kid, grade three and up, I feel like most people outside of my family and close friends (and I didn't have...

    Questions about anything

    There's a lot that I really like to learn about and talk about, some more than others, and even some of the stuff I'm least interested in I'll have occasions where I'll be really interested in learning or thinking about what I know (such as the various international versions of Sesame Street)...

    Classic episodes you want to see

    I guess I missed this, but I didn't realize the missing bits were completed so long ago (in February 2018). I recently looked at the page, after nearly all of the 1990s episodes were given complete rundowns thanks to trusted sources, and I thought that was the source for what was missing, but...

    Sully After Richard Hunt

    Using the "what links here" feature on Muppet Wiki on some segments with Sully, and I've recently found that not very many segments where Richard Hunt performed Sully aired after season 24. I was a bit surprised to see this. The only one I know off-hand that aired in the late-1990s is This is...

    Little things we've noticed

    Something else I've realized. Again using Muppet Wiki's "what links here" feature to determine last appearances (or last known) of segments, seems like if I remember a certain classic Muppet insert airing (or hearing about one airing) between seasons 30-32, chances are good that that was the...

    Questions about anything

    I don't know if this belongs here or in the "what's the deal with....?" thread, but at the beginning of The Addams Family, Gomez's lawyer pitches a special kind of business fund, something to celebrate Fester, but Gomez refuses to fund it or discuss it just because it's new business, with a...

    Early (pre-Kevin Clash) Elmo appearances (Brian Muehl and Richard Hunt)

    I see two episodes listed that are crossed out, with a note that he's only listed in the cast. I assume that's because, whether he's in there or not, we wouldn't be able to know who performed him if we saw an English copy the footage. But it is kinda weird they'd note Elmo in the cast if he...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    Last night I dreamt that I watched part of The Muppet Movie... with some different edits/takes. It was the balloon scene. In this version, Doc Hopper getting hit with the pie was different. The pie instead landed on the ground just ahead of the car, which then drove into the pie. And it was...

    Little things we've noticed

    I was looking at the "what links here" feature on some photos at the Muppet Wiki, which can show all wiki pages that include pictures from certain Sesame Street segments. Since there's pages for every episode since season 20, with only a handful of post-season 20 pages with incomplete...

    Where are all these classic Sesame Street episodes coming from?

    Okay I've looked at some fairly recent uploads of clips from the 1970s and 1980s, and have noticed a bit of fuzziness in movement. I've noticed it the most in their most recently-uploaded classic clip ("Bert wants to play a game"), with a little fuzziness at parts of the screen where movement...

    Where are all these classic Sesame Street episodes coming from?

    Come to think of it, I have noticed some clips look a lot better on DVD than Sesame Workshop's official uploads. And there are cases where I feel certain clips look worse on DVD then when Sesame Workshop uploaded them (the only one I can think of right now is the first two releases of Kermit...

    The "You know what?" thread

    In Back to the Future Part III, when Doc accidentally brings up Marty's future car accident, which had not yet happened to Marty, Marty asks what accident and Doc decides not to say on grounds that he shouldn't know too much about his own future, Marty asks "what is wrong with my future?"...

    Where are all these classic Sesame Street episodes coming from?

    The original post did only say "digitize" but nothing of restoring or remastering. Hmm, I wonder how often Sesame Workshop restores/remasters footage, or if there really is a need. Whenever something old is released on DVD/digital or whenever Sesame Workshop uploads an old clip online, the...
