    Playhouse Muppet Videos

    Recently there's been some talk about these videos on the Tough Pigs forum. There's been some discussion on whether Rowlf's Rhapsodies was all imrpovised, as there wasn't a writer credited (aside from Jerry Juhl getting a "creative consultant" credit and a list of writers from The Muppet Show)...

    The Small Adventure of Thog

    Chapter 3 The butterfly net was held by Sweetums, who looked into the net. "I caught a paper air plane!", said Sweetums, who then noticed Thog in there. "And Thog? How'd you get to be so small?" "I drank something", said Thog, but Sweetums couldn't hear him. "I think I should take...

    The "You know what?" thread

    At the end of the Looney Tunes short Porky Pig's Feat, Daffy gets the idea that Bugs Bunny can help him and Porky escape from the hotel, ranting and raving about Bugs Bunny being his hero. This is in contrast to when they would regularly star in cartoons together later on, but I've come up with...

    The Small Adventure of Thog

    Chapter 2 Thog was struggling to get out of the crack in the ground. "HELP! HElP!", said Thog, unable to be heard, as several pairs of feet walked over. "Don't step on that crack", said one voice, "you don't want to break your mother's back." "Oh, thank you", said another voice. A...

    The Small Adventure of Thog

    Chapter 1 One day, Thog went to the park to look at butterflies. "Oh boy!", said Thog, "Butterflies!" Thog then found a bottle on a tree stump. The bottle had "Free Drink" on the label. "Free drink?", said Thog, "well, I am thirsty." So Thog took a drink. "Ah, that was...

    April Fools: Sesame Street screenings to be held at Paley Center for Media

    I am mixed on this feeling. I am glad that companies keep their master tapes and film prints/negatives in storage even if they don't intend to (or legally can't) get them broadcast or released on video/online. That provides hope that maybe one day they can have a legitimate release. On the other...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    Over the years, every once in a while, I've seen people say that the linking footage from the episode "Sing-Along" originated as an episode of the show. But now I've found this video of some of the street scenes, and it has the standard "Sesame Street was brought to you today by...." ending...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    Well, I just found that, although the opening is included, the closing credits are cut.

    Neither of those two segments are included on the DVD.

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    I purchased Elmo and Cookie Monster Supersized Fun today. It is great. At first, when I saw the listing of what Cookie's Crumby Pictures segments would be included, my main thought was, "Star S'mores should be included, that's one of the best CCP segments!" It's not included, but it hit me...

    The "You know what?" thread

    In Liar Liar, there's a deleted courtroom scene where Fletcher defends a client, named Skull (and played by Randall "Tex" Cobb, who also played Lyle in Ernest Goes to Camp and the guy Ace delivers a package to at the beginning of Ace Ventura: Pet Detective). Later on, there's a reference to...

    Playhouse Muppet Videos

    Well, the Muppet Wiki pages for each of the videos now includes pictures and descriptions of all the linking footage (with a few minor exceptions). It's so great to know what all happened in the linking footage. I've vaguely read a few things (just not Muppet Wiki or anything that MW would...

    The Muppets and YouTube.com

    Linking scenes from Rowlf's Rhapsodies with the Muppets: Quite a few interesting things about this. I always expected Fozzie's cameo to be to introduce one of the two Fozzie clips that appear in the video as opposed to a random non-Fozzie clip. Scooter seems to be a bit funnier than usual...

    Little things we've noticed

    Additionally, with the song "We Coulda", I feel Biff probably should have reworded it a little to "we coulda tried to be" or "we coulda chose to be". After all, some of those jobs they can't just choose. They'd have to spend years in school to become doctors, don't think there's educational...

    Keeping Hats on Heads

    I decided to look at this thread now, after all these years, and wow, I don't remember getting responses before (though obviously I did within a few days of this post). A month or so ago, I asked this question during a live "Below the Frame" episode, and they said it was a variety of ways...

    Little things we've noticed

    In the song "We Coulda", when Biff and Sully imagine themselves in other careers, they don't fully change clothes, mainly just headgear and occasionally have some clothing accessories added. I rewatched a few times before I fully noticed this (before, I really only noticed that, when they are...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    The next Sesame Street release is called Elmo Loves Animals, and will feature animal-themed street stories like Grover's safari (that's one I really want to see). Interestingly, one of the bonus features will be a Sesame Studios short, marking the first time one of those is a bonus on a Sesame...

    Universal originally released "Great Muppet Caper"? Wow!

    I used to really wonder about this. As a kid, I grew up seeing the Universal logo before the movie on television broadcasts (before I got the DVD, the only time I recall seeing it on video was at an afterschool program, where I recall when they started it it was during the credits), and for a...
