    Big Bird in China or Japan?

    Barkly wasn't in Don't Eat The Pictures. It was Big Bird and Mr. Snuffleupagus who help the ghost of an egyptian boy. It seems like in this thread people keep mistaking oen character from another. First somebody mistook Farley for barkly, and now somebody mistook barkly for Snuffy.

    When A Muppet family Christmas was rerun on The Wonderful World Of Disney (or whatever the shows title was back then) in 1989 the special had a new introduction featuring kermit and Michael Eisner, where Eisner gave Kermit a copy of a Disney movie (I think) and Kermit gave Eisner a copy of MFC.

    Questions about the Playhouse Videos

    I have some questions about the playhouse videos, most of which regard the promos for the videos that were shown after each video. First of all, at the beginning of these previews, there are some clips that are randomly shown, with no mention of which videos they are from. Which of these...

    The Return of the Dodos

    "Shut Up" was actually said by Sam Sleaze in Follow That Bird. After the Sleaze brothers got pulled over by the cop, and it seemed like they would probably be going to jail (or at least court), Sid started crying, the state trooper said "be a man!", Sid said "I don't wanna be a man", and Sam...

    I have only seen Big Bird In China. I haven't even seen a copy of the recent re-release in any stores (whether on video or DVD). I also haven't even found any DVD copies of Big Bird In China (just the newer video release).

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 36

    Somebody mentioned in the Journey To Big Bird sketch that the two-Headed Monster introduced themselves as if they hadn't known Ernie before. I don't remember this scene. Is this a different Journey to Big Bird from the one that was shown last year?

    Well, according to my original rules, when somebody picks a topic, he or she should let people post a connection for a day or a day and a half.

    We still need more characters!!!

    Wait a minute. Are you saying that he has only appeared once, or was he a regular character? If he only appeared once, then it would make sense that he isn't very well-known.
