    Was "Follow That Bird" reissued?

    I think that the Follow That Bird soundtrack was reissued in 2002. However, I've never seen it in person.

    Vincent Price vs Alice Cooper

    I remember there being "blocks" of certain season episodes. It seems like the second season episodes were shown the most frequently. Back when Nickelodeon aired reruns, I usually only saw the show on Mondays and Fridays, due to homework. I never had homework on fridays, and somehow I was usually...

    "If I ran the Muppets" thread. Post YOUR good ideas HERE!

    I would like to add that back when I had this idea, I had on my mind having Fraggle Rock as an area that could be used, and the Fraggles being playable/ rescuable characters. I guess that wouldn't be legally possible now, though I would hope that Henson would be willing to license the characters...

    Vincent Price vs Alice Cooper

    Actually, the morning shows were the same as the previous nights. I don't know if the first mornign showw as the same as the first night show, but I watched it on the first night it was shown, when Elton John was the guest. I figured that the same epsidoes were shown in the mornign and the day...

    "If I ran the Muppets" thread. Post YOUR good ideas HERE!

    How about some Pokemon-style Muppet games for Nintendo DS? There were two Austin Powers games for Game Boy Color which had different main game plots (though I could be wrong... I've only played one of the two) but apparantly had some activities that people could play with others using a link...

    Vincent Price vs Alice Cooper

    I've read that Nickelodeon cut the At the Dance segment from the Vincent Price epsiode (the only first season At the Dance segment to be cut). But from what I remember, Nickelodeon began airing reruns in April 1994, and that video was released in October 1994. And Nickelodeon didn't air every...

    Vincent Price vs Alice Cooper

    They are the same monster, only with alterations (Timmy had green hair in most of season two, and no tail). I've read that Timmy Monster was referred to by name in a picture caption from thats cene in TheArt of the Muppets, while his name was mentioend on-screen in the Carol Channing episode...

    I always thought that monster was blue, but others frequently say he's green. Anyway, his name is Timmy Monster.

    Vincent Price vs Alice Cooper

    Both of these episodes were included on the video Monster Laughs with Vincent Price. And both were edited. I wonder if Somewhere Over the Rainbow was actually edited for time, or because it didn't fit the mood of the show. I mena, the video was released in October 1994. Earlier that year...

    jim henson research

    I don't know if this would be considered ebatable, but you could point out that before the Mupets had become famous, most of the original performers weren't really interested in careers in puppetry at first, and now it seems like most puppeteers became interested because of the Muppets (though I...

    You Never Know- Big Lots! Commercial

    How do you know that the song was stolen? How do we know that the song wasn't licensed to Big Lots for use in its comercial?

    Vincent Price vs Alice Cooper

    Actually, the monsters name was Thudge McGurk. But I know that the name Boris Klinger was mentioned by either Statler or Waldorf in a first season episode. I forget which one.

    I really like the Alice Cooper episode better.

    Lighthouse Island from The Jim Henson Hour

    Where? When? Do you have any quotes? What did he talk about? I wonder how much of The Jim Henson Hour was filmed in Canada. I know that the MuppeTelevision segments were, and I'm pretty sure that Jim Henson's introductions and closings were. I guess anything with canadian performers were...

    Man, what all did I have?

    I read at the Sesame Street Lyrics Archive page for The Baker Films that one of the baker films was included in something like that. I wish I knew more about those things. There was one called The Invention of Paper, featuring Ernie as a cave king and Sherlock as the royal smart person...

    Which Meant More to Bert?

    Maybe it was a good luck charm. After all, Ernie and Bert were the first Sesame Street characters to find Big Bird, and after the bottlecaps fell out of the plane, they lost Big Bird.
