    Sesame went down hill when Elmo came on the scene

    What exactly do you mean by "exploded in 1985?"

    If you could remove 3 Muppets from SS, who would you pick?

    Well, maybe she doesn't have to be taken off. I guess I just don't like the newer characters. Maybe Rosita would be my next choice, I don't know.

    What happened to NOGGIN?

    Yes, I do, but as we all know, it's not the same, and it will never be the same again.

    A unique idea for a Sesame Street parody band!

    It sure sounds like a unique idea, and a good idea. But sadly, I don't think they would ever do it. They never do things like that anymore, like parodies or anything. All they do now are kiddie things. I think it would be a very good idea for the old format, and maybe they could do a song about...

    If you could remove 3 Muppets from SS, who would you pick?

    Out of the main characters, I would have to pick Elmo, Baby Bear, and Zoe. I used to like Baby Bear, but not anymore.

    Anyone interested in trading for Unpaved episodes?

    I have a whole bunch of episodes to trade with! A lot more Unpaved episodes than you have? Now if you would only e-mail me with your address, I would be more than happy to send you some of my tapes. And I would LOVE to have those 1991-92 shows!

    Hilary Duff

    Do you think she would be a good person to have on the show? I think she would, because a lot of kids know who she is as Lizzie McGuire. I have found the perfect song for her to do. Do any of you remember the song "Above It All"? It was in a film, and it was with a green creature with a...

    Who remembers these skits?

    You got those names right, it is Dee Dee O'Day and The Dewdrops.

    I miss Guy Smiley

    I think there were 2 of them, both in 1989 before Jim died. The song "Air," and a rare sketch where he took his audience to lunch.

    Nope, that's all the opening themes.

    Your favorite Ernie and Bert skit

    There was another one where the apartment got flooded. Ernie kept getting a glass of water from the kitchen faucet, and taking it outside. Bert was trying to figure out what he was doing, and then Ernie explained that the kitchen faucet was broken, and the floor in the kitchen was flooding, and...

    Long vs. short closing theme

    I think that occasionally, in the early 90s, instead of having the credits with Barkley and the kids, it had Big Bird and kids taking a walk through Central Park, but I don't think it was used very often.

    What happened to NOGGIN?

    Well, I don't know about the ratings for the newer episodes. I have been told that they're doing quite well, but I don't know that for a fact. We don't even know if PBS is going to renew the contract for Sesame Street 2 years from now. But I don't really care if they make new episodes like...

    Sing a Song (as played on MC Radio)

    You're right, it was in show #1563.

    How did Elmo become so popular?

    What do you mean SHORTENED to 15 minutes? The segments have been made LONGER, not shorter. Like the uncut Street Scene, Journey to Ernie, and the 15-minute Elmo's World.

    Who remembers these skits?

    How did you get a tape of it??

    What are your favorite number segments?

    I remember those! Did you know that was LeVar Burton doing the counting in those films?

    What happened to NOGGIN?

    Lets get back on the subject of Noggin. But again, sadly, all those old shows they had on Noggin in the very beginning were mainly meant to be filler. They didn't have any shows of their own, so they had to fill space with something, so they decided to fill it with old programming from CTW...

    What are your favorite number segments?

    I used to love that African Counting series. It used to be my favorite. They still use some of the number films from the early 90s. But they never did a version for number 20. There was also this one called "Rubber Stamps." It went like this: A fish holding something and a 1 came spewing...

    Question from Sesame Street

    Not that one. :(
