    Bunsen's inventions.

    Yeah, I'm having trouble thinkng of inventions from Muppet Babies. I'm also having trouble deciding whether these actually count since most of them were probably part of Bunsen and Beakers imagination. Bunsen has also invented a nuclear shaver, a banana sharpener, and an electronic...

    MUPPET MOVIE AND GMC DVD's RELEASED!!

    It's weird that the Jim Henson Pictures logo wasn't replaced, since it wasn't originally in the movie. I would expect it to still be included in Muppets From Space (has that movie been shown on TV since Disney bought the Muppets?), but I'd also expect it to be edited from Buddy and Elmo In...

    MUPPET MOVIE AND GMC DVD's RELEASED!!

    According to the Internet Movie Database, this scene has been cut from all releases of the film after the original theatrical release. Have you ever actually seen this scene? I'm guessing you didn't unless you saw it when it was first released in theatres (and even then, I'm surprised that you'd...

    What kind of action will get SW's attention?

    Sesame Street has also had many parodies over the years, not just song parodies, but also TV and movie parodies. I don't know if Sesame Workshop has to pay royalties for the use of certain parodies. Some parodies have been released on video, but I'm not sure if there are any legal problems with...

    What kind of action will get SW's attention?

    I tried I used the e-mail link a few times to e-mail sesame Workshop to show my support for a release of classic material, but it kept getting sent back, being undeliverable. It was sent bakc saying, "Your e-mail is undeliverable because you either don't have create permissions on this folder...

    Sketches and Songs on Sesame Street videos

    I hav a feeling that the three bonus segments were not made especially for the DVD. It would be a little weird for all-new skits to be produced just as bonus segments, though I don't ever recall seeing those segments. When I first heard about the DVD having a Dancing With Elmo segment, I thought...

    MUPPET MOVIE AND GMC DVD's RELEASED!!

    Do The Muppet Christmas Carol and Muppet Treasure Island still have the Jim Henson Productions logo at the beginning and end or is it replaced with the Muppet Studios logo?

    I Want a Monster to Be My Friend

    Couldn't that line have just been cut from the reissues of the albums that originally featured the song? In a thread about Sesame Street Live, in the scans from the program book for Big Birds Totally Amature Talent Show, lyrics for this song were included. I'll have to check it again to see if...

    What kind of action will get SW's attention?

    Well, I e-mailed Sesame Workshop earlier about this topic, but the letter got sent back to me within a few minutes. I'm not too clear on why. I might try again later. I've read here that some people have e-mailed Sesame Workshop about this, and that Sesame Workshop had said to write back if...

    I Want a Monster to Be My Friend

    I read a long time ago on the Yesterdayland message board from somebody who was told this by Christopher Cerf himself that this song was taken off the show because it caused kids to think that it's okay to talk to strangers, and it also made them think that it's okay for strangers to molest...

    My Opinion On:Sesame Street Celebrates 20

    That's not how it starts. Here is all that happens before that. First, Jim Henson and Kermit are in a room talking about the show. Kermit is sitting on Jim's lap, but Jim henson performs kermit in a way that it looks like he has his hand around Kermits back. Anyway, Jim Henson talks about...

    What kind of action will get SW's attention?

    legalties Here are some legal issues I can think of, though I don't know for sure about all of them: 1. Maybe it is hard to track down performers to pay residuals to, though I don't think this is the case. I'm sure thayt Sesame Workshop has some kind of data on who performed in what...

    Ed Sullivan Christmas DVD

    I'm sure he meant Ed Sullivan, of The Ed Sullivan Show. I wouldn't expect The Great Santa Clause Switch to be included in this DVD. I forget the actual title of the DVD, but it was pretty much a compilation of christmas sketches from The Ed Sullivan Show, including two Muppet skits, and The...

    Ultimate Disney.com Four Muppet Movies Review

    This reviewer thinks that The Muppet Movie and The Great Muppet Caper were previously owned by Sony. While Sony did release the last DVD releases, Sony never actually owned the rights to these films. They were originally owned by ITC, which also originally owned the rights to The Muppet Show...
