    Cartoon shows that didn't make it

    I thought this thread was about animated shows that were planned but never made (at least not as a full series), but many people have been mentioning shows that were cancled after two seasons. Anyway, I would like to say that I wish the Austin Powers series would have been made. Back when...

    "The Best of The Muppets from The Muppet Show"

    Uh, why would you replace one scene from an opening with another scene? Do you hate the episode that originally featured Statler and Waldorf's comment but like everything from the Gilda Radner episode except for Gonzo's opening scene? :eek:

    your 2006 henson dvd predictions

    what's been correct Well, so far, I've correctly guessed that there would be three new Sesame Street DVDs (the two Sesame Beginnings DVDs and Guess That Color and Shape would be those). The upcomming Nostalgia Box Set would make the count of new releases four. There has also been at least one...

    Sesame Workshop unveils plans for Season 37

    I wonder if Dinner Theater will be hosted by anybody. I think this would be a good segment for Bert to host. If not Bert, then I would want Herry Monster to host it. It would also be cool if it was hosted by Grover, who introduced while trying to serve a meal for Fat Blue.

    Snuffy - 1978, 1979, 1980

    It was said that Michael Earl Davis was Caroll Spinney's understudy at the time that he performed Snuffy. I wodner if he stopped being an understudy when he was cast as Snuffy. After all, at the time, everyone thought Snuffy was Big Bird's imaginary friend, which limited interraction between...

    No shirts, no shoes, no service, no more?

    If the no shirt policy was dropped, I would think that Mickey Mouse would have more to do with it than George W. Bush... ;)

    Allistar Cookie's pipe

    I was reading at Muppet Wiki that in the earlier Monsterpiece Theater skecthes, Allistar Cookie had a pipe in his mouth, and at the end of the skits, he ate the pipe, but then he eventually stopped having a pipe, possibly out of fear that it was making kids want to smoke. Now, I remember seeing...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    I have recently though of an idea. I am not sure if it would work or how good the idea is, but after this set get's released and we all know what's on it and how it is presented (as in whether there are full episodes or just classic clips, or both, or even if there are special features) we...

    Snuffy - 1978, 1979, 1980

    You mentioned that because of The Muppet Show you, Caroll Spinney, and Brian Meehle were the only full-time performers on Sesame Street. But Fran Brill didn't perform on The Muppet Show (except for in two episodes from the first season). Was she busy doing something else? Also, Brian Meehle did...

    TMS Script - Shari Lewis

    Good so far. I like the opening number and the Muppet University bits.

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    Both of those are already available on the video and DVD release Put Down the Duckie (which originally aired on television as The Sesame Street Special). Of course, I haven't seen any copies of this on video or DVD at any of my local stores in a long time. All of those have been released on...

    Eeeehh! I've got the uncut version of Muppet Family Christmas!

    That is The Christmas Toy. Kermit appeared at the beginning and end of the special (I guess from your description of the show you didn't get the first few minutes in tape). This has been released on video twice, but so far it hasn't been released on DVD. This is one of the few productions...

    What if Sesame Street Live was around during the early years?

    I was refferring to the live stage shows featuring walk-around costumes that have been produced every year since 1980. I knew about the album. Caroll Spinney's autobiography also mentioned that the cast toured around the country after Sesame Street became a hit, and said that Oscar originally...

    What if Sesame Street Live was around during the early years?

    I have been wondering lately... what do you think Sesame Street Live would have been like if the first Sesame Street Live show was produced in 1969, 1970, or 1971? I doubt there would have been a Sesame Street Live show for the first year. After all, the show was just getting started, Sesame...

    Questions about the Don Knotts episode of TMS

    He sounded a bit like Bert, only sweeter. It's been a while since I've seen this, but I think he says "It's the Muppet Show with our very special guest star Don Knotts!" I can't remembetr if Don Knotts says anything in the closing number.

    On Dinosaurs, Earl has often mentioned different reasons for marrying Fran. Here is a list of some of the reasons: In Hurling Day, Earl told Fran that he married her so that he can hurl her mother over a tar pit. In How to Pick up Girls, Earl told Robbie that he married Fran just because...
