    I haven't subscribed yet, but does the episode that's been uploaded include any classic clips, or is it just newer (let's say 2002 or later) segments?

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 38

    It's a bit odd that the segment where Mr. Johnson wanted something to read on an airplane wasn't shown, considering this seasons focus on literacy. But it seems like Mr. Johnson has been making a comeback in the last few years. I don't think any new material with him was shown between 2002 and...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 38

    Wow, it's a shame that I missed this episode. It sounds like it had quite a few goodies, includign Air and one of the Grover the Flight Attendant segments. Which one was it, the one where Mr. Johnson wants something to read, or the one where Mr. Johnson wants to be warm?

    caveman Ernie and the washing machine salesman

    Narrarator: A long, long time ago, people lived in caves, and didn't have very much to do. In fact, if our clothes were dirty, we washed by hand, not by machine. (cave king Ernie is washing some clothes in a river in the cave) Ernie: Oh, I can't believe that I've sent my royal cleaners on...

    Yes, I figured that. I don't think I said anything about the lack of Frank Oz characters in the first post.

    characters in style guides

    That one must have been from the 1980s or 1990s, judging by Gonzo being in his 1980s outfit. I was more curious about what characters appear in the style guides made during the time that The Muppet Show was on the air. I don't know how many style guides were made during The Muppet Show's...

    Smurfs to hit DVD....

    There is a difference, though. Certain segments from The Smurfs were repeated in various hour-long episodes, while segments from Garfied and Friends weren't. Also I have read at series writer Mark Evaniers website that although most episodes of Garfield were originally broadcast as hour-long...

    characters in style guides

    Can anybody make a list of all the characters who have appeared in The Muppet Show style guides? Muppet Wiki lists characters who appear in the Sesame Street style guides, but not TMS ones.

    Your Thoughts: The Muppet Show Season 2

    what if The Muppet Movie was basically a 90-minute Muppet Show?

    I wonder if this would have made a good outline for a movie that was more like a regular episode, only longer in lenght and with more guest stars. A one-minute cold opening, with Scooter telling each guest that the show's about to start (1 minute 'till curtain, 45 seconds 'till curtain, 30...

    what if The Muppet Movie was basically a 90-minute Muppet Show?

    Really, I hadn't noticed. Can you name any recent movies of TV shows that have remade old scripts? The Simpsons Movie didn't seem like it remade any episodes.

    what if The Muppet Movie was basically a 90-minute Muppet Show?

    I also think of It's a Very Mery Muppet Christmas Movie as a movie version of The Muppet Show, but I was specifically asking about what might have hapened if The Muppet Movie was like a regular episode of The Muppet Show. And that christmas movie is still quite different because it takes place...
