    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School DVD

    I've noticed that it seems like none of Christopher Cerf's contributions have been included on the set. I don't know when he began working on the show, but I think it was early on. I don't think any of the songs that he provided voices in are included (none of Little Jerry and the Monotones...

    will Jim Henson's works ever have DVD audio commentary?

    Has anybody noticed that nothing that Jim Henson has ever worked on has been released on DVD with an audio commentary feature? Not even big special edition sets, like The Dark Crystal, Labrynth, and The Storyteller collectors editions, and certainly not the recent anniversary rereleases of The...

    Sesame Old School Vol. 1: Why only 5 episodes?

    I wonder how much more it would have cost to either include one more episode or one more disc with 2-3 more episodes. I wonder if more episodes would have meant less-to-zero bonus skits and no original pilot pitch. And if Sesame Workshop decided to release more episodes on future volumes, I...

    Why does my daughter love bert more than ernie?

    If your daughter loves Bert more than Ernie, you shouldn't be asking why she loves him more. You should be asking your daughter, "if you love Bert so much then why don't you marry him?" ;)

    Noticeable Changes to the set over the years

    Well, Big Bird did have Snuffy pretend that a barrell was a chimney in Christmas Eve on Sesame Street, so that he could try to see how Santa Clause can get inside the chimney.

    determining the best before the internet

    It seems like a lot of television shows have moments that we associate as classics. These moments are often included in anniversary shows and documentaries, songs are often included in albusm (especially ones with titles like "the best of" or "greatest hits"). A lot of official books on these...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School DVD

    Reading the review again, I noticed that it says that they are introduced by a cartoon character who explains that the episodes may not meet todays educational needs. I wonder why this needed to be mentioned. Do all educational shows need to have the same curriculum (I thought Sesame Workshop...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School DVD

    The Muppets Magic DVD did a good job at having the Muppets look the way they did during the 1960s...;)

    Why is Dr. Teeth thought of as the Electric Mayhem leader?

    I keep thinking that Dr. Teeth sould have joined Floyd and Animal when they interracted with Dudley Moore in his dressing room. Kermit wasn't in that scene, so it is not like Jim Henson was busy performing another character.

    episodes on the Muppet Show where.....

    Here are some examples: Candice Bergen: Kermit and Rowlf both appear and talk in Veterinarian's Hospital (Kermit responds to something Rowlf says at the end of the sketch). Peter Sellers: Kermit and Link talk. Elton John: Kermit and The Swedish Chef interract. Julie Andrews: Kermit and...

    Sesame Old School Vol. 1: Why only 5 episodes?

    I thought that was possible for weekly television series, but untill 2002, each season had close to 130 episodes. Would an HD DVD be able to hold an entire season of Sesame Street? Of course, I was looking at some HD DVDs at a store recently, and comparing them to the regular DVD releases, and...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School DVD

    It's weird that Best Buy won't be releasing it. It seems like Best Buy carries every other DVD release, even ones that I can't find in other stores (when they come out). It's the only place so far where I've found copies of The Best of The Electric Company, The Weird Al Show: The Complete...

    Why is Dr. Teeth thought of as the Electric Mayhem leader?

    It seems like Dr. Teeth was more of the lead singer in the first season than in later seasons. In most first season Electric Mayhem numbers he was the lead singer, and usually the only member to get solo vocals. Floyd sang lead vocals in a few first season numbers. Also, Floyd wasn't a very...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School DVD

    I have just looked at the list of bonus sketches again, and it seems like the non-muppet skits outnumber the muppet skits, 27-24. I thought it looked like there were more non-muppet skits, but didn't think the score was this close. I have been wondering if future sets will include other...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School DVD

    How do you know that the buying fans and the legal teams won't see eye-to-eye? Maybe somebody working on these sets will eventually post information here, perhaps explaining the process, how bonus skits were chosen, and other stuff. Maybe they could also ask us what we want. Back when The Muppet...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School DVD

    Oh, so it was febuary that The Best of the Electric Company Vol. 1 came out, and it appears as if volume 2 will come out in just barely less than a year. Hopefully Old School Vol. 2 will come out in barely less than a year (hopefully next July) or less.

    kermits NEWS FLASH

    I have read that the Newsflash segments originally did not have opening logos, and when the opening logos were created they were attached to future airings of most of the early newsflash segments that didn't have this logo, with some exceptions, and some Newsflash segments (like the Don Music...
