One of the articles says that they want to include a balance of new and old characters, but they didn't exactly say it'd include obscure or old school characters. I'm sure characters like Big Bird, Ernie, Bert, and The Count will be seen in the comic books more than they have in the last few...

I don't quite get it. It's a cool-looking image, but is this a common type of thing or have there been things like this before? It's cool that the Gonzo part includes eating tires, makes me wish there were more references to specific episodes/productions. Wish the Gonzo section had included...

You know, now I wonder how big Muppet fans the crew really is. I don't doubt they are big fans, but I now get the feeling they're not the kind of fans we are. They said they wouldn't compete against us in a quiz, made a mistake about the Rudolph Nureyev episode, seemed to think Behemoth is a new...

You know, I almost considered NOT doing an april fools post this year, but then this idea suddenly hit me. Though I did think of ideas for two other April Fools threads which I had forgotten about. Thought of one where I was going to say that Disney was going to release a three-disc set of...

You sure are lucky! It's been said that the company producing this documentary will have to get clearance from many companies, saying that home movie footage and footage of Caroll with Picklepuss will be easier to clear... I wonder if footage owned by Sesame Workshop will actually be...

I wonder if anybody has purchased or tried to purchase every version of the Muppets DVD and Blu-ray.

I haven't bought the DVD yet, but I'm wondering, does this documentary include any of Kevin Clash's other Henson work besides Sesame Street?

There's one Dr. Seuss book I only read once but thought was interesting, it was called The Kings Stilts. I think that could make a good live-action movie, if it had a dark look and feel as opposed to being too cartoony. Maybe I just liked the black and white artwork too much (in fact quite a...

And of course, Walter watches The Muppet Show, which Uncle Deadley was a part of. And he was in the final part of the opening, which Walter was seen watching on TV (he also watches a clip from the Julie Andrews episode, an episode Uncle Deadley made a brief appearance in). I noticed that in...

Just for fun, here's an ideal outline I would do for one of the episodes with no street story: Street Scene 1 A Little Bit at the Beginning Gloria's Alphabet New Grover Sketch Mad Painter #7 Street Scene 2 New Animation Happy and Sad with Kermit and Elmo Henson #1 Monsterpiece Theater: Chariots...

Well, I found that a few new entries have been posted in the last few weeks, including an interview with Caroll Spinney.

It's Weather Day with Elmo.

Part of me wonders why the "April Fools" title was even needed here. It doesn't come off as an april fools joke to me. The title seems to be confused, while the post just tells us he knows it's April Fools Day.

I guess I missed a post where this was announced. But I don't mind much, since I anticipate these kinds of posts on April Fools Day. I saw this thread before "April Fools" was added, and suspected it. And it is a bit fun to speculate on how the april fools jokes will be handled (even if only for...

A few ideas I think are funny (but some of which maybe would have pushed the joke too far) that I thought up AFTER posting this thread: An episode where Gordon beats Susan at a game of checkers, and uncharacteristically boasts about it to his buddies. Then Susan falls and hits her face on the...

I was reading on the Sesame Workshop blog that Sesame Workshop plans to stop targeting the show at pre-preschool children and focus more directly at the older audiences -- teens, adults, and fans like us! Since season 43 was produced at the same time as season 42, it'll still air as planned...

What I think should be done for series 2: First Mate Miss Piggy Link Hogthrob Dr. Strangepork Rowlf Floyd Pepper Janice Dr. Bunsen Honeydew Beaker And series 3 Dr. Bob Nurse Piggy Nurse Janice Zoot Lips Scooter Uncle Deadley Bobo And what I think should be done for series 2 of the...

I remember America's Funniest People (I first saw that the night I first saw America's Funniest Home Videos), and I liked that one a lot better. I like Dave Coulier better than Bob Saget, I liked the Jackalope... I can't remember many speciffic moments from that show, but the same can be said...

Whenever something animated wins an award and the animated characters are shown making their acceptance speeches, do the companies producing them know the winner in advance, or do all studios actually animate acceptance speeches or what? The only examples I know of are at least two of the times...

Part of this is a bit ironic, because in a recent Muppet Mindset interview, one of the background performers (whose name I forget) said that Matt Vogel let him perform Sweetums in a few scenes, including when Sweetums chased the car (one of the characters few lines in the movie). And I've read...
