    game shows with no known prizes

    I don't think What's My Part: Nose had any prizes mentioned, either (though since none of the contestants guessed the part correctly, then I guess it doesn't matter... though with Cookie Monster being the contestant the prize was probably a cookie, just like his other game show appearances). Did...

    Crossover Letter Segments

    I think I've figured out the segments. Mupet Wiki's page for epsidoe 83 includes a segment where Bob and Mr. Hooper build an A, and the first season shwo content mentions a "Crossover A" with Bob and Mr. Hooper being in that epsiode. And the page for epsidoe 162 mentions a similar skit with Bob...

    Grover and Herbert Birdsfoot go to the Moon

    chapter 2 The next day, Grover and Herbert Birdsfoot were getting ready for their trip. "All right, Grover, do you know how to dress for a space trip?", asked Herbert. "I sure do", said Grover, "And I got myself a cute little space suit. I will try it on". Grover left, and came back...

    Grover and Herbert Birdsfoot go to the Moon

    Chapter 1: Herbert Birdsfoot got on an elevador that was being operaded by Grover. "It is good to see you again, Herbie", said Grover. "Oh, thank you Grover", said Herbert, who got on the elevador, "Take me to the thirteenth floor, please!" "So", said Grover, "What are you here...

    310 Muppets

    More! Page 9: Catgut, TR, Rover Joe, King Goshposh, a number of Frackles who resemble Boppity (since it's not in color and the main difference between these frackles are color it's hard to tell who is what color), Thig, an elf, and some characters I don't recognize. Page 10: Big Bird, Don...

    the scarcity of green grover

    I remember being confused when I first read the review of Sesame Street Unpaved, where it pointed out that the original gray green grover was mentioned but not pictured. I ahd a copy of The Sesame Street Book of Puzzles at the time, and thought Grover looked black in that book. When I got the...

    310 Muppets

    Okay, I'm going to attempt to list the characters on each page. Even though a list is already on page 1, I'll list those characters again: Sweetums, The Mutations, Timmy (though I can't find him on the page... He could be that monster that Mr. Penguin forgets the name of), Shouting Lady...

    The Trading Game or The Anything-in-the-Whole-Wide-World Prize Game

    That would be good, though it seems like the website doesn't show any early Oscar material. The earliest stuff with Oscar on the site are clips from Christmas Eve on Sesame Street. I also haven't seen any clips with the first Guy Smiley puppet on there, either (the original puppet has some sort...

    Sesame Street: Dinosaurs DVD Coming May 13, 2008

    I didn't expect this to be a movie. I thought it would be a direct-to-video special, maybe a compilation. Now that it's going to be released in some theaters, I don't expect it to have segments from the show (aside from the bonus Journey to Ernie segment).

    the scarcity of green grover

    It seems like footage of the original green Grover is scarce, as if Sesame Workshop wants to avoid having us see him as much as possible. While the fact that Grover was originally a different color was mentioned in Sesame Street Unpaved, no pictures were shown. Noggin only aired one episode with...

    310 Muppets

    Did you draw this as a book? It seems like some two pages are meant to be spreads. And the first page being a "cover" gives the book element away. I see that you listed what characters appear in the first page (after the cover). However, I couldn't tell where Timmy is (unless he's that...

    The Trading Game or The Anything-in-the-Whole-Wide-World Prize Game

    If you could own a copy of one of the two game show sketches with Oscar as a contestant, which would you choose: The Trading Game or the Anything in the Whole Wide World Prize Game? It seems like both are very rare. Muppet Wiki doesn't have images for either, and Muppet Wiki doesn't list the...

    Neglecting first season segments

    Yeah, a lot of first season Muppet bits look a bit low-budget compared to stuff from the second and third seasons. And there were less characters in the first season. Sketches witht he original Ernie, Bert, Cookie Monster (whose design didn't change until the third season, making him one of the...

    Questions for Fran Brill?

    I have another question, that I've been wondering for a long time, and if you ask her this then I don't care if you don't ask any of the other questions that I've asked. On The Jim Henson Hour, Fran Brill performed the female drumer for the Solid Foam band. I want to know if she had an...

    Questions for Fran Brill?

    Okay, here are some: Jim Henson had performed Little Bird in a few skits from the first season, before Fran Brill did. Was there any reason (known to Fran) why Fran Brill took over, and why didn't the character last very long on the show? Watching the credit crawls on the Sesame Street: Old...

    Meet Leela, Sesame Street’s newest cast member

    Did I read right? Did it say that Leela is the shows first indian character? What about Buffy?

    I didn't notice three Kermit-like characters. One page features two characters who look like Trumpet Girl, as she looked in the fifth season of The Muppet Show. I don't know if either was supposed to be her (one looks like she has a small round nose, which Trumpet Girl never had). In...

    The Best of Roosevelt Franklin

    I wonder, if a "best of" or "complete character sketch" release were to happen with any old school-era characters, I wonder who'd be the most likely. I'd guess either Guy Smiley, Sherlock Hemlock, or Forgetful Jones. A complete Guy Smiley set might not happen, since Dialing for Prizes was cut...

    The Original Telly

    Even if Old School Vol. 3 doesn't have any footage of original Telly, maybe the booklet, packaging, or menus will include an image.
