    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    If/ when more volumes get released, I wonder if they will still focus on the years 1969-1974 or if they will expand, perhaps to 1976 or 1979, or perhaps focus on years after 1974 (1974-1979, etc). Or if they will be themed differently (like "Sesame Street in Hawia", featuring the hawiai...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    If each episode is close to 60 minutes, then 60 times five is 300, so the set could include five hour-long episodes. I don't know if the running timke counts features (if there are any). That could get us one episode each from the first five seasons.

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    Another thing that I wonder is if this set will have a "preview other Sesame Street DVDs feature". And once this is released, I wonder if other Sesame Street DVDs will include a clip from this set in the "Preview" section.

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    Does anybody know if Don Music was around during any of the first five season (my guess would be the fifth season, if he was around during these years)? It would be great to see Don included.

    airings of specials

    I think that the christmas ones are the only ones to have been shown at least once a year. I know that A Muppet Family Christmas was broadcast on ABC in 1987 and, I think, 1988, on NBC in 1989, on Nickelodeon from 1992 untll at least 1997, and on The Oddyssey Channel in 1999. I am not sure if...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    And here are what skits I'd include for the best of season compilations. I hope I am right about the years of certain sketches, but these are my best guess. I also hope that I don't accidently list anything that was cut from the Noggin broadcasts of the premier episodes (I am going by how Muppet...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    I noticed that that cover called it "Old School Vol. One" instead of "Nostalgia Set: First Five", like how Amazon has listed it. I'm not sure if that was an old cover that wasn't changed, or what. Does it really say 1969-1974? I thought it said 1969-1979. This would make a great layout...

    Extracts from Kaye Ballard episode of TMS

    Since that episode is available on DVD, it might not be a good idea to show clips there. If you were showing scenes that were cut from the DVD then maybe it would be okay (and some scenes that were cut are included on You Tube), but nothing was cut from the Kaye Ballard episode. I know that You...

    Another Family Guy Reference? You Be the Judge

    Is that episode on DVD yet? I thought it was from the fifth season, which hasn't been released on DVD yet.

    Did Grover eventually stop slapping Kermit?

    I know that during the early days Grover would often encounter Kermit by slapping him on the back and saying "Hey, Froggy babyyyyyy!!" However, did he eventually stop doing this? I haven't seen too many Kermit and Grover sketches from after the 1970s, but in all of those team-ups, Grover...

    The Great Muppet Caper

    That's sad. I really hope that Disney decides to bring them back sometime soon. Yeah, I know that they are not as major as Rowlf or Scooter, but they are two of my favorites.

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    I know that some of us have been able to e-mail/ contact Sesame Workshop. I have tried e-mailing SW a few times but every time I have, I get a response saying that the e-mail is not available at that time, or something like that. I think a few other members have mentioned this happening to them...

    Muppet Show DVD's

    It does a bit. However, this show was originally distributed by ITC Entertainment, and the closings originally ended with Zoot blowing the ITC logo out of his trumpet. After The Jim Henson Company bought the distribution rights from ITC, they reshot Zoot blowing the saxaphone, which is the...

    ?'s about Do De Rubba Duck.

    Maybe Caroll Spinney really wanted to be a part of the song, but Big Bird and Bruno would have been too big for the tub.

    Sesame Street Comic Strip

    I was reading at the Muppet Wiki website, in the page on animator Cliff Roberts, that there was a Sesame Street comic strip. A link is posted, but it leads to an article page that does not exist yet. So I'd like to know if anybody knows anything about the Sesame Street comic strip? I think it...

    How do you know that Frank Oz directed that scene?
