That was the first Weird Al product that I had gotten, followed a few weeks later by me getting Bad Hair Day: The Videos. It's interesting how there are two Weird Al VHS releases promoting his most recent albums, with only four music videos each, two of which came from the albums promoted (well...

Has anybody ever noticed how most Sesame Street videos that involve a "show within a show" setting that the title of the show-within-a-show is different from the main video title? Examples: The Alphabet Game - Alphabet Treasure Hunt Count It Higher: Great Music Videos from Sesame Street - The...

Weird Al Yankovic's "Al-TV" specials introduced the world to Harvey the Wonder Hamster, as well as the "Harvey the Wonder Hamster" song (not sure which one introduced the song... I've been watching some of the early ones on YouTube and the song wasn't featured). Alapalooza is the album that...

I've often wondered about what rights Henson (and now Disney) had in regards to all of the productions that were distributed by other companies. I know Henson retained the rights to all characters created for the productions, and possibly other things. Not sure about songs or scripts (I've...

What's the deal with the Super Mario bros. Super Show DVDs separating the Mario and Zelda segments? I know the Zelda boxed set came first, with a few live-action wrap-arounds, but why not release The Super Mario Bros. Super Show DVD with all the episodes in order, including the Zelda ones? And...

I can't remember if I saw that footage on the blog or not... I feel like I have, and yet I also feel like I haven't. I started wondering if this was a "bonus storybook" or maybe even the app (could an app work as a DVD feature?), but after looking at the updated description I wonder if that...

No, it was never announced. Many of us were hoping there'd be a fourth volume this year, and I figured if we got one this year it'd be out in November (the last two volumes were released November of their respective years).

I never said I thought it wouldn't be released at all. I just said that it looks like we won't get it this year, since there's going to be a new release in November, Warner Home Video tends to put out only one release a month (not counting exclusives that have come out), and so far Warner has...

The next Sesame Street DVD after Being Brave will be "Fairytale Fun". It will have four street stories. No word yet on whether it'll have any Sesame Street News segments (like Big Bird's Story Time and Silly Storytime did), hopefully it will (though there are many fairy tale-themed segments...

Anybody know where I can find an insertial that ran on Nick Jr. in the early 1990s? I remember seeing it in 1992 or 1993 (or maybe it was both)... I don't remember much, but I think it was a poem, and it featured a giant walking in a city, and a voice-over. I think it was claymation. The only...

I don't think HiT or Lionsgate were ever partnered with Henson to make the Fraggle Rock movie. They just had the video rights. It is a little sad how Henson STILL hasn't been able to get the Fraggle Rock movie or Dark Crystal prequel released, considering those properties are quite popular, and...

Chapter 7 The shelter was heading closer and closer to the waterfall. "What can we do?", asked Bert. "I'll throw this anchor!", said Herry, who was carrying an anchor. Herry threw the anchor out the front door. "YAY!", cheered everybody. Unfortunately, the chain to the...

I thought he didn't want the Sesame Street Muppets merchandised at first because he felt it was innappropriate to profit from merchandise related to a non-commercial show. For awhile I wondered if he wanted ownership and a split of merchandise so that he could deny any Sesame Street product...

I wrote that article. I had fun doing it. I had thought about writing about their apartment in Follow That Bird, which looks a bit different (along with all of Sesame Street), but then decided not to. And until now I didn't think to write about their primary location in the test pilots...

Chapter 6 As the shelter continued flying... "Hey, Chef", said Fozzie, "we're flying over Sweden." The Swedish Chef looked out the window, waved, and said hi to his mom and dad. "I used to be a world traveler", said Grover, "But I have never traveled like this before." "I just...

Chapter 5 As they were flying in the air in the shelter... "Like, I wasn't expecting the hurricane to be this strong", said Janice. "It must be stronger than me", said Herry. "I didn't think this could happen", said Bunsen, "Then again, the material was a lot cheaper than I had...

Well, now I have everybody needed for stage 1.

I thought Hurricane Katrina came in 2006, and I know there have been hurricanes since then (my town was affected by the aftermath of one in 2008, and in fact it was then that I started getting the idea for this... and now I'm finally writing it after all these years!). Chapter 4...

In The Muppet Show episode with Alice Cooper, how did they do the outline effects in Pigs in Space? Did they rotoscope the movements? Did they use Waldo technology?

Actually, neither Dave nor David is listed in the credits, and their characters voices aren't heard (Scooter seems to host and his dialogue is in text, Zoot just makes his sax sound when clicked, Gonzo has his trumpet which he blows when clicked on, Waldorf along with Statler only has text...
