It was a very exciting day for the Muppets. Dr. Bunsen Honeydew had invented a "Magical Plane", which could automatically send people to where they wanted to go without a pilot. A big crowd was outside for the first flight. "Good day, everybody", said Bunsen, "As you know, I have perfected...

I once had a dream that I saw a big Sesame Street playset (or maybe it was a game board), featuring all kinds of Sesame Street figures (though the only characters I remember seeing are Biff and Sully). Once, I had a dream where Bruno and Bob were playing checkers. I also had a dream once...

I know that I already asked a question, but I realised that this question that I asked the last time around must have been missed.

An article about a Henson rarities screening mentioned that The Jim Henson Company purchased the Rowlf footage, and I wondered if Henson actually bought the distribution rights or just copies of the Rowlf sketches. Does the DVD contain any copyright notes about whetehr the Rowlf segments were...

I know. It sounded like somebody said that he had to be on DVDs even if he didn't have anything to do with them. And regarding the lack of Elmo on the cover of Play-Along Games and Songs, that cover was used for the video rerelease. I don't know when it was rereleased on video, but it was...

I have watched Looney Tunes on Nickelodeon and Dinosaurs before school. I forget what else I watched before school.

I have read that series 3 (which is the series that Zoot was part of) had the lowest production run in the entire line, so that might explain Zoot's scarcity on ebay.

Elmo also appears on the cover of All-Star Alphabet, and that video only features Muppets in the segments featured, and not in the linking plot (for some reason). Then again, it's good that that video had any Muppet on the cover.

Elmo didn't appear on the covers for the DVD releases of Big Bird in China, Big Bird in Japan, Learning About Letters, Learning About Numbers, Sing Yourself Sillier, Count it Higher, or Old School Volume 1, though on some of those he appears in a small photo on the back, in a small section that...

Yes, she was a Muppet. She was a cowgirl, made from the large lavendar anything mupet. She had orange hair and visible teeth. She appeared in books more than on the show. I don't ever remember seeing any skits with her. I've read about some scenes with her, and from what I've read, it seems like...

No, that's the sketch where Ernie has Bert pose for the camera so that his face can be traced. It's available in Old School Volume 1, in episode 536.

Somebody else had asked about why Nickelodeon stopped showing reruns in this topic, for some reason, and I was commenting on that.

Parents actually told their kids to stop watching Sesame Street? My parents never told me that. I didn't know about The Electric Company when I was a kid (I think reruns ended around the time that I was born). And you hated your parents? That's funny! And it looks like you had a good reason, too!

When I first saw the title of this thread, I thought it meant that somebody posted 10,000 posts in one day. That would be amazing. Maybe I'll try it. Or maybe not.

I did some research, and if the next set has the season 6-10 premiers, then there are, by my count, at least three sketches that get repeated in multiple episodes throughout the set, at least seven sketches that were released in volume 1 (I feel like I counted 12, but I can't remember what some...

Yeah, behind-the-scenes clips and stills could be shown between clips, and maybe over narraration (I would have the episodes include some sort of images of the performers if the episode is about them). I wonder how many behind-the-scenes clips of Jim Henson performing on Sesame Street exist (I...

And I guess it hurts more when not every episode of a particular show is shown on that network. Nickelodeon onyl showed 65 episodes. Then again, Nickelodeon only showed the first 96 episodes of Muppet Babies,a dn reruns of that show were broadcast on Nickelodeon for 7 years. And many shows that...

Here is my new question: Do you happen to know what special effects were used to make bubbles come out of Bill the Bubble Guy's head? Of course, that's assuming that you got to see the puppet in person, and saw how it worked.

I don't know why, but I wonder how long Nickelodeon's contract for TMS lasted, and were ratings for it really good then? Nickelodeon only showed reruns of TMS for two years, and halfway through it's first year on Nickelodeon reruns were cut back from two a day to just one, during the Nick Jr...

It's been announced that Old School Volume 2 will focus on seasons 6 through 10. If it includes the premiers for those seasons (like how the first set had the first five season premiers), then the 2 segment should be on the next set. It was in two of the second five season premiers. I forget...
