I find it interesting that all of these rare song clips are songs written by Tony Geiss. Makes me wonder if he actually supplied the copies. I've read that he recently auctioned the copyright on all of his Sesame Street songs, not sure if anybody bought them (it was a pretty steep price, I think...

The recent exposure of these clips is interesting, I won't ask how they were obtained, but it seems like they weren't taken from an individual episode (or maybe they were taken from an incomplete copy of an episode... Which could explain why I'm Square appears to be cut off at the beginning)...

It looks to me like I'm Square is cut off at the beginning. Seems like Bert's reacting to something Maria said, and that they should have had a longer conversation (and it looks like Bert's holding a tape at the beginning which doesn't seem to be commented upon).

Or they could have just cut it as the song was ending, before the girl introduces Wanta the Witch.

I mean he said that the Muppet series, whatever it was, was not going to be a big show to go "goo-goo banana pants over", and I feel like this show isn't, either, which made me wonder if the Muppet thing Thatcher was working on was revived and was this. But he confirmed that it isn't.

Last Summer, Kirk Thatcher tweeted that he was directing a new Muppet series, one that wouldn't be "a big Muppet show to go goo-goo banana pants over" (and I might have phrased that incorrectly), then announced that the project had been canceled "for now" last fall. But recently I was...

I can't believe Cheryl Henson had talked this way about Steve. However, Steve did say in a Muppet Central interview that he'd heard that Jim told a few people that he wanted Steve to take over Kermit if he was unable to, and there was an interview with Jane Henson from 1990 saying that Jim...

I often bring up "season one show content" files that can be viewed at the University of Maryland, all of which were scanned and posted on Muppet Wiki's talk page for that place. The guide lists practically every insert for the first season, with a list of episode numbers that each segment...

I've often wondered about that as well. I keep thinking about the whole movie taking place in a movie studio with the characters working on the film, but there's probably a lot more to it than that. Maybe there's a villain, or maybe it's like MTM where there is no main antagonist. Of course...

It's common knowledge that those were produced back in May 2015. In fact, it's known that there's three additional ones that have yet to be seen.

Okay, I'd mentioned that I recently saw a video a few weeks ago with Kermit talking about the beginning of Summer, with Whitmire as Kermit, and thought it was new, and was surprised that nobody'd mentioned that online, but now I decided to watch it again and saw that it was posted in 2015 (I...

While I thought it was odd that Whitmire would retire, last night I thought of a quote from Frank Oz on why he's distanced himself from the Muppets to direct, where he said something like "when you've done the same thing for over 30 years, eventually you want to do something else", and started...

Well I have been able to read it now.

It seems like I can't get to Tough Pigs now. Hopefully whatever's going on will resolve soon and I can read it. I just realized: Matt's first public performance as Kermit will be in an online video, and the first time we heard Matt as The Count was in an online video. I keep joking in my head...

I think that means that, if we were to contact Whitmire or Disney and they didn't want to reveal the reason, we should respect their wishes (especially Whitmire's). Or maybe we should just not worry about the reason for retirement and, if we were to contact Whitmire, to not ask.

This is a shock, even though his characters have barely been in anything new all year. It's interesting that the news announcement was supposed to be exclusive to Tough Pigs and The Muppet Mindset, I first saw the news at Muppet Wiki - looking in the recent changes section, where I saw...

I noticed that. My thought was, "wrong theme park".

Been watching the Vacation movies tonight, and there's a few things I've thought about... I've read on many sites that they originally wanted the Griswald's to actually go to Disneyland but changed it to the fictional Wally World because Disneyland is open all year round. So... really? That's...

I recently saw that the Muppet Wiki article on this song now has info on why the song stopped airing early on, sourcing a 1998 interview with Joan Ganz Cooney (so the information has been out there for a long time...): It was all because of the rumor that the initials were meant to be LSD...

Well, on August 29, there's going to be a new DVD called Trick or Treat on Sesame Street, obviously Halloween-themed (and two months early). I think this will be the first time since Warner Home Video got the video rights that they put out two new Sesame Street releases in a single month (to be...
