    I just bought follow that Bird!

    You would have known Kermit was in it if you looked at the back of the DVD box. The back cover has a picture of Kermit interviewing the Dodos.

    Sketches and Songs on Sesame Street videos

    I was hoping that you (or somebody) would write a review of Quiet Time. It sounds like it is worth seeing for the sketches. I knew that it included In The Quiet of The Evening, but didn't realize that it has Naptime. Too bad I can't find a copy of it in any of my local stores anymore.

    Your Thoughts: Emmet Otter DVD

    Do you know why the special was cut before it was remastered? Was it edited this way when shown on The Oddessey Channel and remastered (although the Columbia release was available before The Oddessey Channel was owned by henson)? Why would they have edited the final Kermit scene on the original...

    Compilation Fan Fic: "More Rock Music..."

    Here's a little small "joke" that people may have missed (although nobody has commented so it's hard to tell). At the beginning I had an instrumental version of Don't Blame The Dynamite playing. The third song included was Tenderly. In Rock Music With The Muppets, an instrumental version...

    differences between bedtime Stories/ Sleepytime Songs

    I have read that Sony Wonder re-released the 1986 video Bedtime Stories and Songs with a different title, Sleepytime Songs and Stories, as well as with a few differences. I have read that some segments were replaced and that it included a somewhat different version of Everybody Sleeps. What...

    Slimey question...

    In the episode where Slimy comes back from the moon, at the end, Oscar gets Slimey ready for bed. Oscar says, "I missed you, Slimey", and Slimey says "I missed you, too". Oscar then asked Slimey what he wanted to do tomorrow, and Slimey said, "I want to go to mars". Slimey also makes a lot...

    your favortie Elmo special

    I think that both Elmo's World: Happy Holidays and Elmos World: Wild Wild West are at least 40 minutes long, if not longer. I haven't seen Elmo's World: Happy Holidays so I don't know the exact lenght of time.

    Was the muppet show meant to be structured?

    I have noticed that the first two episodes of The Muppet Show seemed to have some sort of structure. Was the show meant to have a set order of how the show was run? It does seem a bit odd that there would be a structure in the first two episodes since they were refilmed after later first season...

    Repainted variants that should have been

    You must also remember that the figures made by Palisades are not based on any one specific puppet. This is because the characters have had a lot of changes and Palisades has several reference photos of each character.

    What Muppet art film by Gonzo?

    Repainted variants that should have been

    Are there any figures that you think should have been made that would have been mostly repainted, without very little-to-no resculpting done? Things that could have been a 1-per-case repaint, a give away, or an exclusive? Here's what I think could have been doen for the muppets line: *Scooter...

    your favortie Elmo special

    I also really liked The Street We Live On, The Best of Elmo, Elmos Sing-Along Guessing Game, and Cinderelmo. I didn't think that Elmos World: Wild Wild West or Elmosize were very good (but I wasn't expecting them to be too good, either).

    Slimey question...

    Martin P. Robison performs Slimey. The first time I heard Slimey speak was in the episode where Slimey returned from the moon. He might have spoken before that, but I don't know for sure. In 1985, Golden Book Home Video released two Sesame Street videos with various Sesame Street storybooks...

    Sketches and Songs on Sesame Street videos

    Yes, he only sang it on Sesame Street. He never sang it on The Muppet Show. It was included on an album called Jim Henson's Sesame Street celebration, where the song had a 1987 copyright, meaning that it was written long after The Muppet Show ended. Kermit sang the song with three kids, voiced...

    A Bear movie still in the works?

    I wonder if a Bear movie would be as good as a muppet movie and Follow that Bird, or as good as Elmo In grouchland and Kermit's Swamp Years.

    Cookie Monster after season 1

    The monster with sharp teeth who looked like Cookie Monster was also dark green (I didn't know this untill I watched his appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show; All photos I saw prior to this were in black and white). The commercial he was in was for IBM. According to Sesame Street Unpaved, this...

    I have some more questions about Its a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie!

    Here are some of Statler and Waldorfs lines: Johnny Fiama: hey, Bitterman, these two men stopped buying drinks for the girls an hour ago. Rachel Bitterman: Is this true? Statler: We've been buying all night. Waldorf: Yeah, we're going broke! Pepe: Don't get me steamed, okay...
