    I've never heard of that sketch.

    The New Scooby-Doo Movies w/ Jim Henson’s Muppets

    That was good. It's too bad that wasn't actually made (though somehow I doubt that the non-Sesame Street Muppets would have been popular enough at the time to appear as guests on Scooby Doo). It's a shame that you didn't include Rowlf or Baskerville in this, since they, like Scooby, are dogs.

    Simpsons Movie Thread (Spoiler)

    I saw the more detailed trailer back in febuary, and I still can't tell what the plot is. I read an interview in Entertainment Weekly with soime of the people invovled with the movie, and it was said that 70 percent of what's shown in the trailer has actually been changed for the final version...

    Old School Volume 2 coming this fall

    If Sesame Workshop decides nott o just have season premiers on all sets, then I guess the 1979-1984 set (if a set for those years is made) would probably have the episode about Mr. Hooper's death. But even if it doesn't, I wonder if the clip where the adults explain his deatht o Big Bird would...

    "Muppet, Music & Magic" Events

    So there's a question and answer session. Has anybody thought about asking Dave Goelz if he knows whether the Sam and Friends characters are owned by Henson or Disney? Has anybody ever thought of asking him why Digit hasn't been used much since The Jim Henson Hour? Did anybody (or has anybody...

    Old School Volume 2 coming this fall

    At Muppet Wiki, I was reading about episode 847, which featured a guest appearance by Margaret Hamilton as The Wicked Witch. This was a season 7 episode, and apparantly it scarred kids so much that many parents send negative letters to Sesame Workshop, and eventually Sesame Workshop decided that...

    how about a SS compilation TV series?

    For the opening, it would be a clip montage played over audio of the original audio recording of the theme song, as heard during the first season. It would start with clips and end with a title card. The title card would be a blue background with "The Best" writen in green lettering, "of" being...

    The ask Jim Lewis thread is now open

    Before Jim Henson died, it was often common for Sesame Street Muppets to make cameo or crossover appearances in Muppet Show-related productions (especially during Henson's last few years of life, though none of them appeared on The Jim Henson Hour), but after Henson's death, very few crossovers...

    Talking houses.

    They appeared in mutliple skits during the first season. They were in the episodes with Ruth Buzzi, Paul Williams, Florence Henderson, Harvey Korman, Ben Vereen, and Vincent Price. I think I am forgetting an episode or two.

    Is "Someones Gotta Hammer" the same song as "We Coulda", or are they different songs?

    The ask Jim Lewis thread is now open

    I wonder if that's why Seymour hasn't been used at all since Muppets Tonight. He seemed to have a simialr personality and effect. Then again, it seems like most dumb fictional characters are like that, though the original dumb Big Bird wasn't (at least based on what I've seen of Big Bird during...

    The ask Jim Lewis thread is now open

    That's a shame. It's been reported that Jim Henson didn't keep many secrets. I wonder if he would have made this an exception.

    What happened to good old Herry?

    Jerry Nelson also performed another monster, Frazzle. And of course he used to perform half of the Two-Headed Monster.

    What happened to good old Herry?

    I don't really think that Herry's voice would be that hurtful (though I was the first one here to openly speculate that as the reason). If anything I would expect it to be easier to do than Cookie Monster or Guy Smiley's voices.

    1-2-3-4-5..6-7-8-9-10..11-12!

    I never thought of skits where characters just count to 20 (or 10, or 40) to be the number equivelent of reciting thw alphabet. Of course people don't recite the alphabet and stop at any certain letters (it would have been cool if Sesame Street had a recurring letter series with an opening where...
