Bear arrives on Disney+ The beloved series has been off the air for the past 15 years. Now all four seasons are finally available for a whole new generation.
When Julia's debut recently aired, I figured there'd probably be a DVD release of this soon (and this is just logical assumption), I thought maybe there could be a release about making new friends. And then this comes out, another introduction to a new character.
If there's a new release next...
I've never seen anything that indicated what kind of age she's supposed to be.
Of course I think kids used to get out of having to wear car seats at age two, but now it seems they have to weigh a certain amount.
It looks like Rosita is riding in a car seat, though I'm not entirely sure. I get that Elmo would need one, but I'm surprised to see Rosita in one.
It's also interesting that they had Elmo and Rosita paired up, as opposed to Elmo and Abby or Elmo and Zoe. But hey, we get some new Rosita content!
I'll have to find it. I know I saw a thread at Muppet Central a few years ago that had the link (or maybe it reprinted the old article), and I remember seeing it around 1999, but I'm actually having trouble finding it in Google.
I feel about as skeptical of this information as I did about the person whose mom works there, said it was lost in storage, and that it hasn't been digitized due to an unwritten rule against it. And there have been a number of times I believed similar-sounding info that others were skeptical of...
Oh, I thought it was just that he didn't perform Oscar when he's in his trash can area and there's a lot of set pieces/props around.
When I first saw that Sesame Studios promo and thought it was odd Eric was heard, I wondered if that was a case similar to bluescreens. I've seen people say that...
This was awesome. Though now, I wonder if people will search "Sesame Street 1980s" looking for '80s clips and be disappointed to find this (though I actually searched for this and found some '80s clips before this clip).
One thing I've been meaning to ask, maybe it'd be better for its own...
Well, The Muppet Mindset has already posted an article on it (while, last I checked, Tough Pigs has not).

In Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, Ace figures out that Lois Einhorne is actually Ray Finkle. During the climax, Ace tells the cops, Einhorne tells them that he's lying. Now, she clearly wouldn't want them to know, but she could have just said he was wrong instead of lying. Even if he really was...
I feel like it does go along with some of the things mentioned in Jim Henson: The Biography regarding the making of Muppet Vision 3D. I feel like it says there were disagreements between Henson and Disney, particularly on his desired budget. Can't remember what else was said.
Actually...
I think I forgot that he had died. I recently read that he auctioned his rights to his songs, assuming that wasn't a hoax I thought it was interesting (even if the price was high - though I wondered if any fan could just pay what they could and pay the rest after the royalties came in), but if...
I think it's interesting that Disney felt they needed the Henson family's blessings to fire Steve Whitmire, as if they have final say (since they don't control who performs the Muppets anymore, Disney does). Makes me wonder if they asked the family for their opinion on whether to fire Steve...
Something that I just realized: It's called Muppet Thought of the Week, as opposed to "Muppets Thought of the Week" (or "The Muppets Thought of the Week"). Could this mean that Disney has dropped using the plural for all uses of Muppet in the title?
That is a great clip, though I can kind of see why it hasn't aired in years (well, besides the fact that it has characters who haven't been on the show in years).
It seems a little weird to have a character dressed as a devil on the show. A few parts seem a little creepy (like Maria, dressed as...
I'm skeptical of this. If it's an unwritten rule to not digitize this, then it's not in writing, how likely would the archivists be to remember/be aware of this? And just one episode out of them all?* I know they didn't plan to air it again, but there's thousands of episodes that haven't aired...
