Does anybody know if the sketch What's My Job? might have been the first appearance of Sonny Friendly? Perhaps to show Guy Smiley with another game show host, and maybe after that it was decided to make Sonny Friendly a semi-regular character, whenever a game show host was needed but Jim Henson...

Yes, and also TMNT and The Simpsons Movie.

I hope that the focus switches to something like The Letter of the Day or The Number of the Day. I would hope "Number of the Day" first, because then we could potentially see One Song (Song of One) really soon, if it's in numerical order (but would it start at 1 or 0?).

I relistened to this a few times, andI don't think Kevin mentioned anything about his board bird having any characteristics of Hoots. Come to think of it, aside from Elmo and "one of the board birds" Kevin didn't really mention any of the other characters that he has performed. I figure...

It seems that the Play With Me Sesame DVDs cut out title cards from all sketches that have on-screen titles. All of Guy Smiley's game shows have their title logos cut on Let's Play Games, and Playtime with Grover cuts out the Super Grover logo when a Super Grover sketch is shown. Of course...

I'll ask a few questions, and one or two can be selected at a time. I'll be out of town in two weeks, and am not sure if I'll have internet access then. Do you know whose decision it was to have Seymour and Pepe go from being elevador operadors in the first season of Muppets Tonight to being...

This is exciting, but I'll believe it when I see it. There's been so many announced projects that have been cancled, both in the Henson era and the Disney era.

Actually, Kevin Clash didn't perform Hoots in Follow That Bird. He performed a robin, who said "wrong kind" in that scene. I'd always thought he sounded like Elmo, but didn't think Kevin Clash performed him, since Clash wasn't credited under "board of birds" (just "additional muppet performer")...

the last word on the street! The latest podcast epsidoe focuses on the word "Struggle". In addition to "What's the Word on the Street?" and "The Word of the Day" skits for struggle, segmnet sinclude: Big Bird teaching Snuffy to ice skate (Martin Robinson redubbed Jerry Nelson's Snuffy dialogue...

These Play with Me Sesame DVDs are like a gold mine. They feature a lot of great skits that I either haven't seen or haven't even heard of. And while I don't care much for Zoe, her segments in these releases are really great. Sad the the best Zoe moments aren't shown on Sesame Street very much...

I think that We Are All Earthlings is from 1990 (are you referring to the song or album?). Of course, there have ben a variety of environmental segments before and since then, but these seasons seemed to heavily focus on the environment. I wouldn't be surprised if Bruno's song "Put it in the...

Are you mistaking Play with Me Sesame for Sesame Beginnings? Because I don't recall saying anything about a baby version of Big Bird being in either release.

Was the main curriculum for seasons 21 and 22 (and possibly afew seasons later) protecting the environment? Looking at Muppet Wiki, it seems like a lot of episodes from this season have some sort of focus on the environment. There's one episode where Telly tries to guess who will get the Good...

I think this one is really rare, despite it being included on variosu albums. A clip from this one can be seen in the A&E biography on Sesame Street, and another clip from the original appears in a "My Favorite Sesame Street Moments" segment. But it doens't appear in any U.S.-released videos or...

I just watched Imagine with Me, and it's also a good release, though not as good as Let's Play Games. I correctly predicted five of the sketches that are included. Those sketches are In Your Imagination, Imagine That, the 1990s remake of Imagination, the remake of the banana phone sketch, and...

Bbay Talk is the show where the baby is voiced by Tony Danza, and one of the few shows where Tony Danza plays somebody not named Tony. I think it was really just inpired by Look Who's Talking. The title is in no way similar, and all of the characters have different names (though many are just...

christmas came early for me! Although these releases are due for release on the 11th, I already found copies of them for sale at my local Best Buy. I've already watched Let's Play Games, and have glanced at the bonus CD-roms, to see what clips are included. Not many segments that I'm fmailair...

It seems like Old School Volume 1 had a lot of classic bonus segmnets, though many rarities and random choices were also included, while volume 2 didn't seem to have as many classics. I guess it's hard to determine what sketches are truly classics and not just fan favorites. Promotion for volume...

Do you know whetehr there were multiple rocket cheers? I wonder what was up with each one having many differently-shot versions. Many are the same, with differences being hard to describe (some have the cheerleaders behind a brick wall, some don't, some have the cheerleaders positioned in a...

I had chosen to leave off Henson shows that were short-lived, since I know that most of us want those shows on DVD, and we all know (or should know... What kind of Muppet fans would we be if we didn't?) what Henson stuff has and hasn't been announced for a DVD release. I was wondering if a...
