    Henson Rarities on Youtube

    I thought it was odd how the logo appears at the end of the Couldn't We Ride clip. The show had special screens showing the logo before commercial breaks, but otherwise not in the footage shown before fading to black.

    Questions about anything

    In The Producers, reviews of the musical get printed and sold almost immediately after the show is over. I always figured this an exaggeration or "rule of funny", kind of like how in many cartoons a character can order something and it gets delivered right away. In fact I think such a comment is...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    For a few years, when watching We're All Monsters, the version with Kevin Clash's vocals, I noticed that Elmo's "he doesn't look like Elmo" seemed to be in good lip-sync. I expected the original line to be "he doesn't look like me". But now I see it and the line is "and he don't look like me"...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    We're All Monsters with the original voices, and not just the video with audio dubbed from the album release. And here's a rare Michael Earl performance as Forgetful Jones.

    Deena and Pearl

    I didn't expect them to have interact in street scenes. Actually, lately I've been wondering if maybe Jim, Frank, Jerry, and Richard were a little less available in season 12 than usual, even though there are segments with their characters that are known to have debuted then. This season sort of...

    Sesame Street shrinks to 30 minutes, new shows will premiere on HBO and PBS nine months later

    I feel like what appears to be the linking footage for the DVD looks very appropriate for video linking footage.

    A Breakdown of the Series' Timeline

    I guess now we're going to be at the start of a new era, with the show airing on HBO and being only 30 minutes, in addition to the new set and retirement of Sonia Manzano (and Fran Brill).

    Dreams about Muppets...

    Last night I dreamt that Sesame Street added a laugh track.

    The Leslie Mostly Show with Guy Smiley

    When I read the description of this one on the forum, I thought Leslie Mosly was at the restaurant, as opposed to in her studio. I wonder what was with the ending, with Grover saying "this is not my table!" Did he not like the question or not want to come to the studio? Weird that we get a...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    The description for the Manny the Agent sketch says it's Brian Meehl doing his best impression of a Frank Oz character, but I don't see it. Some of Meehl's characters (Dr. Nobel Price, Clementine) sound a bit like some of Frank's characters (like Marvin Suggs). To me, Manny feels more like the...

    Old Nickelodeon

    I've been thinking about the first two Rugrats video releases - "A Baby's Got to Do What a Baby's Got to Do" and "Tales from the Crib". I've noticed that every episode in "A Baby's Got to Do What a Baby's got to Do" have all four of the main babies, but all the episodes on the original release...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    Last night I dreamt that I went to my grandparents' house, and they happened to sort of have two copies of the video Gonzo Presents Muppet Weird Stuff... Except they only had the box. Two boxes, no video. And the back of both boxes were cut off as well. And then I dreamt that I saw the Leslie...

    Diamond Select Toys to Produce new Muppet figures and mini mates!

    Looking at that, I was the one who asked the question, but wasn't aware that the answer had been answered. I guess that's what I get for only seeing these links are posted here or at Tough Pigs, as opposed to checking on my own. It's a shame that he's actually not allowed to answer.

    Deena and Pearl

    I wonder how well the duo would have interacted with other major characters. One YouTube comment came from somebody who remembers first seeing Deena in a scene with Telly (which may or may not have been her first major scene). Muppet Wiki has a still of a scene with Deena and Olivia (the episode...

    THAT'S how it ends?!?! REALLY?!?!

    I saw the finale once and don't know what to make of it. Even though it sets up the spin-off, it does feel sad that all three room mates are leaving, even if they are for better things. While Teri was moving to Hawaii (I believe), was it said that Janet was moving out of town as well? Seems sad...

    Diamond Select Toys to Produce new Muppet figures and mini mates!

    Here's a question that I doubt is a problem to answer: Back when Palisades produced Muppet figures, originally the line was exclusive to characters, accessories, variants, and playsets from The Muppet Show, with other projects (like the movies) not allowed (though they were allowed to have the...

    Kermit and Miss Piggy Officially Split!

    It seems like they broke up at the time of The Jim Henson Hour. In Miss Piggy's one MuppeTelevision appearance, after Piggy calls Kermit, Vicki remarks that "she dumped [him]", which Kermit protests trying to deny that they were a couple. In fact when Kermit asks to talk to her she at first...

    Playhouse Muppet Videos

    Somehow I feel they were mistaken. I wonder if their "taped VHS copy" was a copy of a copy. Or, if it was broadcast, I wonder if maybe it was broadcast sometime after the video release. The document on the 2004 Henson/Disney deal lists these videos "under "Best of The Muppet Show" under "home...

    Deena and Pearl

    I saw this clip posted in another thread and knew it was an English-language clip, but upon watching it, at first I started to doubt it was in English. Pearl made a few vocal noises that sort of sounded, to me, like the voices I tend to hear when watching foreign dubs (by the third noise it...

    The Official Top 10 Anything...

    Top ten songs I'd like to see the Muppets do dramatic renditions of: 10. Why Don't You Get a Job (they'd have to change a few words... true for some of the other songs on this list) 9. Shake It Off 8. Boom Clapp 7. All About That Bass 6. Mahna Mahna 5. Hakunna Matatta 4. Rubber Duckie 3. Yoda 2...
