    scripts in Sesame Street Unpaved

    I'm sure that anybody with the book has notice,d but in Sesame Street Unpaved, most of the sketch scripts have differences between the book scripts and what was said/ done in the scenes represented. Sometimes it's more subtle, while in other cases (like The Golden An script) they only include...

    Street Gang: The Complete History of Sesame Street

    I can't believe that I haven't commented on this yet. I wodner if this will be more like Sesame Street Unpaved or Jim Henson: The Works. It would be grreat if scripts and song lyrics were included in this book, of course I'm hoping for scripts and scene descriptiosn for sketches not scripted or...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School Volume 2

    You know, I believe that official announcements for the first two sets were announced around this time last year (though I think they were announced in may). Could an official announcement for volume 3 be made in the next few weeks? Then again, I think both official announcements came from...

    TV show DVD featurette observation

    I have noticed something about featurettes that are made for DVD season sets. Usually when a seasons et of a TV show on DVD has an all-new featurette, the featurettes only include footage from the epsidoes on that set (and often previous sets). They don't normaly include clips from epsiodes from...

    The MuppetCast - Show #53 - Follow That Fran!

    I don't recall Fran Brill being asked about projects she didn't perform in. It turns out that she doesn't remember performing the drummer, and many sites in the past have listed her as the performer (the only time I can recall seeing anything that suggested she was performed by anybody else was...

    The MuppetCast - Show #53 - Follow That Fran!

    Wow. This was great. Jim Henson being inducted into the television hall of fame (it makes me want to see the actual video clip... I especially can't tell what's going on in the Muppet NY workshop sequence... Boy I hope that Disney can get permission to include that clip on a Muppet Show DVD)...

    Sesame Podcasts

    I would like to point out that the Take a Breath clip is different from the one included in Old School Volume 1. I thought they were different but wasn't sure, so I watched them both at the same time and saw the difference. But they still have the same vocals, and both consist of animal footage.

    The latest episode, Breathe, is better than I'd expected (I didn't think there'd be many good sketches on this topic). Segments include: Grover and a girl breathe Take a Breath (I expected this one to be included) Air (with Bip Bippadotta) the word "Breathe" appears on-screen The...

    The MuppetCast - Show #53 - Follow That Fran!

    I thought the song was just added to the reissue. I'll have to check Muppet Wiki, but I don't think one version of the song replaced another version.

    longer music numbers

    In the booklet that came with the Mupet Show 25th anniversary album, it was said that Jim Henson felt that it was pushing it to have any musical numbers that lasted longer than 2 minutes. I have noticed that many of the songs performed on The Muppet Show are shorter than when they were...

    The MuppetCast - Show #53 - Follow That Fran!

    I haven't listened to this episode yet, but the version on the alphabet album (I assume you are referring to Sing the Alphabet) was sung by Elmo, not Big Bird. The album Songs from the Street cuts the introduction to the song.

    The MuppetCast - Show #51 - A broken computer

    Well, since Statler and Waldorf were animatronics, Jim Henson could have recorded Waldorf's lines after the movie was finished. I once saw an article at Tough Pigs which included behind-the-scenes info from an anonymous source, who pointed out that when Waldorf asks Statler if he's enjoying the...

    The MuppetCast - Show #51 - A broken computer

    I wonder how close to Jim Henson's death Mupet Vision 3D was made. Waldorf sounds like he has a cold in the film, but Kermit sounds alright. Scooter, however, sounds a bit more like Janice at times (of course the voice is pretty much the same, but there is also a slight difference). In the...
