    what if there was a multi-part Sesame Street documentary?

    This is what I would make for the contents of some of the performer-themed episodes that I haven't listed. Obviously, the scenes between skits would discuss their Sesame Street work and contributions, and also talk about the characters before the clips are shown. Frank Oz: *Bert teaches...

    what if there was a multi-part Sesame Street documentary?

    Believe it or not, I actually thought up a "season 2" episode guide last night. So here are episodes 27 through 52. Some are follow-ups to first season episodes. 27. Jim Henson and Frank Oz 28. Big Bird 29. William Wegman 30. Celebrities 31. Animation 2.0 32. Bob 33. Jerry Nelson...

    What does MTR have?

    I've never been there, but I know that the original pilot version of TMS with Juliet Prowse is there, as are at least two 1970s episodes of Sesame Street that were not shown on Noggin (I forget what their numbers are).

    what if there was a multi-part Sesame Street documentary?

    I've been thnking of ideas like this for a long time. Heck, back in 1999, I had an idea for a Toonheads-style Henson series, featuring themes involving the Muppets, Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock, the creature shop, and other stuff. I was thinking that such a Sesame Street series should be a...

    Old School Volume 2 coming this fall

    I think I worded what I said wrong (I edited some of it to make it more clear). I was commenting that we know that it will cover the 1974-1979 years now, a month or two earlier than we knew last year when it was announced that the first set would cover the 1969-1974 years, and that this set will...

    Old School Volume 2 coming this fall

    Isn't it ironic that news of what exact years will be covered was announced earlier than was announced for the first set, and it will be released slightly later than the first set?

    The Jim Henson Hour

    I don't know. I had read an interview with soembody invovled witht he Mupets who mentioend that a long time ago. I can't even remember who it was whow as interviewed or what website had this interview, but the person interviewed also mentioned that ABC probably didn't know what to do with...

    what if there was a multi-part Sesame Street documentary?

    And here is how I would make the Grover episode be shown: *Talk about Grover's origins *the original Near and Far *talk about Grover changing from gray green to blue, and his regular team-ups with Herbert Birdsfoot, Kermit, Mumford, and the kids *Herbert Birdsfoot talks to Grover about...

    what if there was a multi-part Sesame Street documentary?

    Here are some more content ideas for the proposed episodes: episode 7: Caroll Spinney *Talk about Spinney's early life, possibly show clips from early telelvision performances, and talk about how he met Jim Henson *Talk about Big Bird, including how Big Bird evolved form being a dopey...

    The Jim Henson Hour

    It was cancled. I've seen different comments from different people who ahve different ideas of why it was probably cancled. In Jim Henson: The Works, it is said that fans were probably expecting something more simple that what the show was (like a slightly updated Mupet Show). Steve Whitmire...

    Old School Volume 2 coming this fall

    It's already comercially available on the Rock & Roll! DVD. Of course, I don't know whether that is still in print or not (it's been two years since I last saw a copy of the DVD in stores), and Rock & Roll! does edit the beginning and end of the song (I haven't watched this clip on You Tube, but...

    The Return of "Muppet What-Ifs?"

    G-fer is his job, not species. A go-fer is a term for a production assistant. A go-fer would go-fer coffe, go-fer sandwhiches, and g-fer other things. What if Noggin aired Sesame Street episodes from 1989-1993, and 1994-1998? What if Taminella continued to appear in new productions after...

    What happened to good old Herry?

    I don't know whether Jerry Nelson is having any difficulties with the voice or what, butif he is, then I think they should recast Herry. Some people here have thought that Joey Mazzarino should perform Herry. A few years ago, when I heard that Jerry Nelson was semi-retiring (and before I knew...

    U Really Got A Hold On Me

    I thought the U was just a plain letter U, not any gender-specific U.

    Did Weird Al ever appear on a Muppet thing?

    Maybe he took his daughter there (and possibly got a picture of himself with Elmo without his daughter). Or maybe he is a big fan of Sesame Street (despite hardly referencing Sesame Street in any of his works and never making any guest appearances on Sesame Street). I wonder if Al has ever...

    what if there was a multi-part Sesame Street documentary?

    I have been thinking about the toonheads-style series idea, and have thought about some segments that could be included on certain shows. It would be hard for me to come up with what the Jon Stone show would include, since I don't know exactly what clips he directed. He probably directed most of...

    New Muppet comic Strip

    It would be great if maybe at the end of every year (or every two years), Disney released all of it's Disney Adventures Muppet comics in a special book collection. I don't know if Muppet comics are expected for every issue once they premier, and if so the books would only include twelve issues...

    Old School Volume 2 coming this fall

    Sorry if I'm beating a dead horse, but I'm bored, tired of waiting for the set, and want to make another wishlist. Segments that I want on the next set (and I'm listing segments from the first ten years): Season 1: Jazz #8/Ernie's Sandbox Game The People in Your Neighborhod (original...
