    Christmas Movie Bloopers on NBC's Funniest Outtakes 2

    What surprised me the most about the bloopers was just how much of the program focused on the Muppets. At the beginning of the show was a 2-minute montage of bloopers from the movie and new interview clips. The Muppet Show theme was a nice touch. I thought that would be it. But they...

    Christmas Movie Bloopers on NBC's Funniest Outtakes 2

    It is on NBC... They have shown several segments two-minutes each with bloopers so far. New footage with Kermit, Piggy, Fozzie, Pepe and Rizzo has also been shown. A couple quick bloopers have been interspersed in the program as well. Nice to know these bloopers and new footage exists in...

    Swedish Chef 'Cröønchy Stars' Commercials

    I have at least one of them on tape. I will have to check it out though to give you more details, but they did air during Saturday morning cartoons around 1987.

    DVD Series of every Sesame Street episode ever made

    I was thinking one new intro at the beginning with the characters, then the clips one-after-another. A new intro before each clip would get old. I wouldn't want this like the "Best of Ernie and Bert" video, but rather clips in their entirety shown one after another with titles and original...

    The Complete History of Mahna Mahna and his alter ego Bip Bipadotta

    They had a lot of fun with records from the mid-70's through 1985. Often times they would make up fun names for singers, groups or Sesame employees like "Ambrooze Sisters" even though the characters weren't on the show.

    Finally, I heard an early Vet's Hospital sketch

    Daffyfan2003, I enjoyed your analysis. Fran Brill originally performed Janice in 1974-75 for the Sex and Violence pilot and the Muppet Meeting Films. Then Eren picked her up for season one, Richard for season 2, then Brian brought her back in last year's Christmas movie. Glad you are enjoying...

    DVD Series of every Sesame Street episode ever made

    Another thing to remember is that Friends or The Simpsons are 30 minute programs whereas Sesame Street is an hour per episode. The popular sitcomes are produced in huge numbers which makes their cost per disc go down dramaticly. Two-three episodes per disc is the most you could realisticly...
