    The Return of the Dodos

    The under Elmos nose comment is a refference to the fact that kevin Clash is Elmos performer, and works underneath Elmo (which would be under Elmos nose).

    Boxed set of classic SS episodes -- coming soon??

    If you want to fantasize some more, you can read a thread I started in the Sesame Merchandise section, called "DVD Set Idea: Sesame Street Golden Collection". What I listed is a true wish list.

    which do you think will be finished first?

    Well, now that Season 1 has been released, I am convinced that the DVD sets will be finished first. This set only has a small nubmer of features. There was no room for the Jim Henson retrospective, The Muppet Valentine Show, or series premier insertials (whatever those are). The only feature...

    Left out of compilation tapes

    I wonder if there are enough dance scenes (besides At The dance) to fill a video themed around dancing? I already know that some of the most obvious choices were already included (Happy Feet in The Muppet Revue, You Make Me Feel Like Dancing and Disco Frog in Rock Music With The Muppets, Gonzo...

    The Return of the Dodos

    Chapter 20 The Dodos rode in the back of the Sleaze Brothers truck. "Wow", said Mommie, "This is a breezy ride." "yeah", said Daddie, "it's priceless." "I'm getting cold", complained Marie. "Well, I'm getting old", said Daddie. The truck stopped in an empty field area...

    The Henson Connection

    According to the book Sesame Street Unpaved, the Sesame Street skit where Jim Carrey demonstrated happy feet and sad feet was originally written with Steve Martin in mind, but for some reason Steve Martin chose not to appear on Sesame Street (i'm not sure if he turned down a chance to be on the...

    debut years/ seasons of skits

    I would assume that all of the number painter skits were produced in the same year. Usually, whenever there is a recurring series of non-muppet films (especially ones involving letters or numbers) on Sesame Street, all segments are normally produced and aired in one year. After all, we know that...

    Steve Martin first hosted Saturday Night Live during the secodn season, after the muppets had stopped appearing on the show. The muppets only appeared regularly during the first season. The last time the Gorch muppets appeared on SNL was in the secodn season premier, hosted by Lilly Thomlin. The...

    appearances by Angus McGonacle

    It was another father, not Miss Piggys. He said, "My daughter can gargyle gershwin to the tune of beethovens fifth." I didn't realize that this was supposed to be a refference to Angus. If you watch the video again, you will notice that when Miss Piggys father is talking to the advisor...

    DVD set idea: Sesame Street Golden Collection

    If the episodes where Slimey went to space lasted six weeks, then that would be around thirty episodes. Did all of those episodes focus on Slimeys trip to the moon, or were there also normal episodes that didn't involve Slimeys trip?

    Left out of compilation tapes

    According to the Muppet Morsels, Money was first performed by voice actor Mel Blacn, and I think it was written by Stan Freberg. I doubt Pink Floyd would have recorded a cover version.
