    should jerry Nelson have some understudies?

    I think that the last two episodes will air sometime in December, months after the rest of the season has been broadcast.

    should jerry Nelson have some understudies?

    the 2-part episode involves Mumford accidently shrinking Big Bird, and Big Bird has to find a way to get big again. In the season 36 thread, Secret Squirrel said that Caroll Spinney performed Big Bird when he was big, and Matt Vogel performed Big Bird when he was small.

    DVD set idea: Sesame Street Golden Collection

    Daffyfan 2003 and Kimp The Shrimp have posted in this thread, but yeah, it would be good if other people would post ideas of what skits they would like to see or what they think of this idea. It would be cool if Sesame Workshop wanted to have the fans vote for what skits they wanted to see...

    If palisades made Dinosaurs figures

    Yeah, I don't think it is too common for people to have forgotten about it, although I think some non-muppet fans remember other henson shows better, like Fraggle Rock. Every once in a while I ask people I know if they ever watched this show, and sometimes they don't remember untill I tell them...

    if they were around at the same time

    That is why I thought that Placedo flamingo spoke spanish. however, in that scene, he sang the lyrics in english. i don't know if there was any specific reason why Placedo Flamingo sang the english lyrics (maybe it was easier for Placedo Domingo to sing in spanish than for richard hunt to sing...

    should jerry Nelson have some understudies?

    I thought that I have read that he is still performing most of his characters. I have read that he has performed Fat Blue in one new segment this season (i'm not sure if that has aired yet). Fred The Wonder Horse recently appeared in a new Global Grover skit. Did jerry perform fred in that skit...

    DVD set idea: Sesame Street Golden Collection

    another cover idea Another great idea for a cover could be one similar to the picture on the muppets 550-piece puzzle released in 2003. The image on this puzzle was filled with muppets. Perhaps a sesame street picture like this could us the cover of the 25th anniversary musical celebration in...

    should jerry Nelson have some understudies?

    Since jerry nelson is semi-retired from performing, do you think that his characters should have some occassional replacements, like how matt Vogel is occassionally performing Big Bird? The Count is probably the most obvious choice to have another performer be trained to perform. Herry...

    if they were around at the same time

    Another team up that would have been great would have been between Rosita and Placedo flamingo. I think Placedo spoke some spanish. Rosita debuted in 1991, a year before Richard Hunt died, so they could have done something together, but I beleive that I have read somewhere that Richard didn't do...

    Gobo question...

    I liked the original Gobo and Ma Gorg better than the rebuilt versions. It is weird that even thoguh their looks changed, the opening and closing stayed the same. I'm sure that people who didn't see the show untill after their appearances had changed would have been confused. It's...

    Female Monsters...They Never Last

    Actually, she was performed by Camille Bonora. At the end of Sesame Street: 20 And Still Counting, the performer credits are shown along with their performers, and Camille Bonoras name was shown in front of Ruby. I could be wrong. This credit sequence does have a few wrong/ misleading...

    Are female performers vocally limited?

    I have noticed that most female performers don't really have a lot of regular characters. Now, Fran Brill has performed a lot of characters on Sesame Street, including Prarie Dawn, Roxy Marie, and Zoe, and when she performed on The Jim Henson Hour she performed most of the female characters on...

    New York Muppet/Sesame Auditions!!!

    To AAO Since you are a big fan of the movie Follow That Bird, have you considered asking people who worked on the movie about behind the scenes information about that movie if you do get hired? Kevin Clash was listed as an additional muppet performer in that movie, so you could have asked him...

    DVD set idea: Sesame Street Golden Collection

    Out of curiosity, does anybody know how well the book Sesame Street Unpaved and the album Songs From The Street sold? I wonder if the success of either of those, along with the average success of Sesame Street DVDs in general, would help support a DVD collection like this?

    Your Thoughts: Doin' Things That Doozers Do

    I don't own it either, but I have seen it at my local target and Suncoast. The episodes on it are Reds Club, The Trial of Cotterpin Doozer, and the episode where Gobo and Cotterpin explore the first Doozer caves (I can't remember the exact title). The bonus episode is Gunge The Great And...
