    The VHS Thread

    I was recently watching an episode of Everybody Hates Chris, in which Chris and Greg skip school to see Ghostbusters. When they realise that the next/last showing of the movie in theaters is during school hours, before they consider skipping Chris says if they miss out they'll have to wait to...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    I also saw that Scooby Doo collection. You know, that's how The Essential Bugs Bunny Collection should have been handled (not that I'd have bought it either way). Not a two-disc collection where only disc 1 is classic shorts, and only 12 (when each disc of the Golden Collections and Super Stars...

    Disney Dreams Muppet Plush

    There's been quite a few Gonzo merchandise of him in thart outfit, or something like it. The Fisher Price dress-up doll, the fisher price beanbag, a toothbrush, a halloween costume that came out a few years ago... Today I was just thinking that it'd be cool if Disney'd at least release small...

    I figured it was on the show, but I didn't know for sure.

    Zoot Talking Timeline

    Recently I've been thinking about when Zoot has talked and when he's talked less. 1975: He doesn't talk at all in his first appearance (though I can't remember if he sings back-up vocals with Floyd and Janice), though in Sex and Violence all of his scenes involve him playing the saxaphone...

    SST News: Red Riding Hood vs. MT: Red Riding Cookie

    Which of the two "Cookie Monster as Little Red Riding Hood" segments do you like better: The Sesame Street News segment or the Monsterpiece Theater segment? Here's the Sesame Street News segment...

    That Super Grover video isn't exactly new. I thought it was up at youtube long ago, but I'm sure it's been at sesamestreet.org.

    Did Wontkins have legs or arms?

    Can't tell if you're jokin gor not, but Wontkins was half the duo of Wilkins and Wontkins, stars of Jim Henson's commercials for Wilkin's Coffe, Kraml Milk, and other commercials in the 1950s and early 1960s. He's the one who generally disliked the product being advertised.

    The Muppet Mindset

    Considering you were able to get Joe Mathiew to give an answer regardign Oscar's trash can lid hat (and judging by the image provided it doesn't exactly look like the one on his trash can... And I think that lid was in the shot), I'd have liked to see a question mark segment on why Herry Monster...

    SST Blue Print

    Very cool. Though it's odd that the Fix-it Shop was listed in the blueprint, despite it being from 1970. The Fix-It Shop wasn't in that location until season 3, and at first it was a library (and I think a pet shop before that).

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    Well, Muppet Wiki says that Elmo's World: The People in Your Neighborhood will have the helping, doctors, and firefighters episodes. As far as I can tell from the guides Maria and Bob weren't in those, though there's still no word on any bonus segments. Still, I find it odd that the online...

    The Muppet Mindset

    Are the vinylmation figures blind boxed or do people know what figures they're getting when they purchase them? If they come in blind boxes then they should include an obscure character.

    Is It Normal For A Diz Film To Have No Hype?

    Really? I had no idea of this. Though I do remember a number of 1995 video releases containing trailers and/or announcements in those mini-video catelogue things that came with VHS releases (is there a right term for them) for the VHS releases of The Aristocats and Aladdin and the King of...

    The Wizard of Id on YouTube

    I for one am surprised that Disney didn't get the rights to that (unless perhaps it's public domain). I'd read that Disney got the rigths to Tale of the Tinkerdee, so it would make sense for Disney to get Land of Tinkerdee. The only Muppets in that special are Rufus and King Goshposh, who were...

    Lance Cardinal's handmade Muppet Theatre Playset

    That was very cool. You should have worked for Palisades when it was in buisness. Though I do feel there is something missing quality-wise (and not just Statler and Waldorf's box), it is perfect.

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    I've checked and there are only three Elmo's World segments left that haven't been released on DVD (helping, building things, and transportation). Could this be the content of the release? Of course with a title like that I'd expect it to have the doctors and firefighters episodes. Did Bob...

    They have already put up a clip from that pilot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GK7NvL_2l3A I'm not too familiar with the individual Wizard of Id strips, so does anybody know whether the various gags in this are based on speciffic strips? It wouldn't surprise me, since various individual...
