Did the entire show take place on-stage, or are there any "backstage" sequences?

Wouldn't it be cool if Disney decided to add a three-hour block of Muppet programming to either The Disney Channel or ABC Family Channel? Perhaps it could be called The Muppet Channel, and can play Muppet programming. I would have it be three-hours long, and between the programming there...

Here's a question that I started wondering: Do you still get paid residuals for your work in any Henson productions that get shown on TV or DVD? I am assuming that you did get residuals in the first place (even though you didn't perform voices in many Henson productions). Of course, there aren't...

I'm not really sure whether the skit came first or if the book came first, though there are quite a few Sesame Street skits that were adapted into storybooks (the episode about Mr. Hooper's death was also made into a book). As for the video that people are referring to, that was Three Sesame...

Well, I just watched the opening sequence for Follo That Bird, and Biff is there, though he can hardly be seen. It's not a shot that would be cut-off by full-frame. He can be seen as the camera is moving up, but for the msot part during that openign shot Biff is blocked by some lights on the...

It never has been released uncut. However, I think an uncut release would be possible. I don't know how Henson would feel about the use of it's Fraggle Rock characters, but I'm sure that Sesame Workshop would allow the Sesame Street characters to be included. SW has already allowed Disney to...

I voted for the second cover.

I remember seeing somebody doing something that looked like he was playing checkers with a human in the scene where Big Bird was leaving the street. The area was in the building near the fix-it shop. It was hard for me to see who that character was, but I thought it was forgetful jones. Of...

I'm not really sure how to.

I'm not Bear, but I know that all of the characters released in stores were included inc ereal boxes, only in smaller form. I think there were four different characters in different types of Kellogs cereal. I think there was a news article at Muppet Central from 1999 that mentioned who was...

I wonder if Patti was a regular or just a one-shot character in the special. The credits just listed Debbie Chen alongside "The Cast of Sesame Street", as if she was a regular. Sure, she may not have been famous enought o justify getting a "Guets Starring" credit, but there could have been a...

Here are a fewe more lists of clips shown in montages: Clips Montages from The Muppets: A Celebration of Thirty Years: Monsters, eating and explosion clips: There are Millions of Us Who are Ugly (from TMS with Milton Berle) (the audio for this continues halfway through the montage)...

Many Henson anniversary specials and documentaries have clip montages, where several clips play, often over some music so we basically only see the clips and don't hear the audio. I think that it might be fun to list what clips were used in certain montages. I'll list what clips were in...

I was recently looking at Muppet Wiki, and looked in a list of Sesame Street Anniversaries, listing various tie-ins to Sesame Street anniversaries, and the only thing listed for the 20th anniversary was Sesame Street: 20 and Still Counting. I think I have also seen a publicity photo promoting...

You know, I have read on some Looney Tunes messgage boards that a fan recorded his own audio commentary for a few Looney Tunes shorts not currently available on DVD (I think Mexican Boarders is one of them) and put them on You Tube. I wonder if anybody who has copies of the cut sceens and the...

I don't think the promo with Kermit the Frog will be released anytime soon, especially not by Hit!, considering the fact that Disney wouldn't allow Kermit's sceens from Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas to be released on DVD by Hit!

I know that you said that you didn't perform in the on-location shots of Follow That Bird, but Can you tell us how available Jim Henson, Frank Oz, Jerry Nelson, and Richard Hunt were on the set for the days and locations that you did perform at? I've noticed that Ernie didn't talk much in the...

Does anybody who saw the tapping remember what voices Brian Henson and Bill Baretta used for their characters? Man, it seems like this will be the first-ever Henson series to actually be performed in front of a live studio audience. I wonder how close to a real talk show this wil be. I...

Let's start a thread for ideas for toys based on Hey, Cinderella!, The Frog Prince, and The Muppet Musicians of Bremen. PVCs: Hey, Cinderella!: Series 1-Cinderella, Stepmother, Rufus, and King Goshposh. Series 2-Fetaherstone, Prince Charming, Stepsisters, and Fairy God Mother. The Frog...

You know, it seems like this is a bad year for classic Sesame Street sketches being released on DVD, outside of the Old School set. It seems like there were no new DVD releases of videos previously unavailable on DVD, and most other Sesame Street DVDs featured all new footage (the Sesame...
