    I have noticed that in Christmas Eve On Sesame Street, in most of the scenes where Big Bird and Oscar interracted, that when Big Bird speaks, we see a wide shot of both characters, but when Oscar speaks, the scene usually just cut to a close-up shot of oscar, so Caroll Spinney probably switched...

    Richard Hunt in the Dudley Moore episode

    Still, I think that Janice could have at least had some lines. Scooter never appeared backstage in this episode, and she also could have spoken in dudley moores first number, which was also the only scene where dr. teeth spoke in the entire episode. I wish that they all joined floyd and...

    Muppets Season 1 releases Aug 9, 2005

    Was the Hurricane episode just released? I didn't think that it would be released this week. Can you tell me how the video/ DVD release was edited? were there sketches on there? were any complete non-insert scenes edited (I guess the "welcome to sesame street" part and the "sesame street was...

    multiple character dubbing in early years

    has anybody else noticed how common it seemed to be for performers to perform voices of multiple characters in the same sketches, even if none of those characters were regulars? it seemed to be more common for the performers to dub (or possibly pre-record) vocies for more than one character...

    Did richard hunt have limited availibility in the Dudley Moore episode of the Muppet Show? In that episode, the only characters that he vocally performed were Statler (whose scenes were all in the balcony and could have been tapped in less than ten minutes) and Scooter (in the cold opening)...

    Actually, in addition to too many elmo-centered scenes, I think that it also had too many sceens with Huxly and the pesties (although i do like both Huxly and the pesties).

    What was the first Sesame Street video ever released?

    If you don't count Follow That Bird (and I don't know when that was released), the first videos were two videos released by Golden Books Home Video in 1985. These were called "five sesame street stories" (featuring four Super grover stories and "big bird brings spring to sesame street") and...

    Follow That Bird Discussion Thread

    yeah, 14 years is a long gap. I know that Elmo In Grouchland wasn't that successful, but how successful was Follow That Bird? Was it just as successful as an average Sesame Street production? Technically, all of the characters were not there. Even counting all characters who were on the...

    Rainbow Connection Kermit Review

    I think that it's a bit weird that they decided to include the newer muppets logo on the packaging of the very last figure from palisades. Does the packaging acknowledge that the muppets are owned by the muppets holding company (or disney)?
