Two different characters who provide services to Oscar are The Mudman and Bruno. While they don't work together, they both look similar to Biff and Sully, though The Mudman looks more like Biff when he is in illustrated form. There's also the fact that The Mudman and Biff were both performed by...

One thing I am curious about is Baker #4 appearing to follow the "Ernie weighs cherries" sketch in this clip. Sesame Street - Baker # 4 - YouTube I did the "what links here" thing on the wiki, and there's no (American) episode where the sketches appear back to back, though I did see one or two...

I wonder if they intentionally tried to have the wig fall off or if they had trouble keeping it on when that hippie moved so wildly with such long hair. I would have thought they’d Velcro, pin, or use double sided tape, maybe they felt it would stay on without assistance and were wrong.

Maybe it's just me, but the Pumkin Anything Muppet, whenever the character is completely bald, kind of looks like one of the old McDonalds Chicken McNuggets puppets (even when this one has a nose, whereas the McNuggets don't have noses).

Now every segment with Lefty the Salesman is on YouTube. It is interesting seeing him sell items to characters other than Ernie. Herry seems to be as grouchy as Oscar in regards to his presence. The one with Molly marks the first time I saw a clip from one of the reported-lost episodes online...

I haven’t watched the Dog City animated series in years, but I am trying to remember, did Bugsy Vile wear a wig? My memory says yes but I don’t see anything online that says so. of course, Bugsy in the original special did not have hair while Bruno did have black hair (I don’t recall Bruno’s...

I was reading on the wiki that the song was originally going to be called "be Our Ghost" and left in some references and I had trouble placing any. Still, seriously? "We did that in a beastly cartoon?", as in rats did that in Beauty and the Beast? Don't really know what a "croon" means.

I don't think paying them royalties for Sesame Park would be too different from paying them royalties for the main Sesame Street.

During the "Life Hereafter" song in Muppets Haunted Mansion, at one point they make a reference to Beauty and the Beast. One rat sings "we ain't rich and he can't groove" (and I kept having trouble understanding that line), and then another says "we did that in a beastly cartoon", to which...

When it comes to adult cartoons on the networks (not cable channels), Fox seems to do the most successful, while ABC, CBS, and NBC all seem to avoid adult cartoons. Of course, once The Simpson’s began, ABC and CBS tried their hands at prime time cartoons and those failed. CBS tried Fish Police...

I mistakenly thought it was on The Disney Channel tomorrow night as opposed to tonight.

What's the deal with Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein having that title? It is the first of the "Abbot and Costello Meet..." series of films where they meet movie monsters, but in this first one, Dracula and the Wolf Man are featured just as prominently (maybe even more so) than...

In the second Simpson's Halloween episode, the segments are the nightmares of Lisa, Bart, and Homer, but all three could have just as well have been Homer's nightmares. Lisa's nightmare seems more like Homer is the star. He's the one to buy the monkey paw, he's featured the most, he ends the...

One thing I wonder, and so far I haven’t seen anything in the book to indicate this, is if Pierre the French Rat appeared on Sam and Friends. I have seen some places on the official Henson site that say Pierre did appear, but then you never see him in any vintage photos with the cast. There’s no...

I got the book yesterday. I've been going all over the book, to various parts. In the credits section, I always thought Jim Henson directed the show, and was surprised to see others listed as directors (with Jim Henson not listed at all). Jim Henson: The Works gave me the impression that he...

While it would be great if they could put out a DVD of all the surviving episodes (or at least all the ones that don't need clearances plus the ones they can clear), I've started thinking there should be a book of Sam and Friends scripts. And since it seems like many of the audio tracks still...

A few surprises for Muppet fans.... The only Henson shows I noticed here are The Muppet Show and Sesame Street. When it comes to non-Henson shows, the biggest omissions in my mind are Newhart and a number of '90s Nickelodeon shows (Rugrats, Rocko's Modern Life, All That.... Salute Your Shorts...

I don't think the other people at the bank was really listening, nobody else is really shown listening, and I don't think Lenny really cared if they heard him or smelled BS. Even if he really did literally smell BS, they might not have also smelled it and he could have been checking to see if...

This is the first I heard of the small arcade replica. I’d seen there was one for Ninja Turtles and thought there should be one for the Simpson’s (though the Turtles one is just three of the levels).

He’s just saying that he thinks the deal is a scam (or not as good as Lending Tree) and “that smell” is emphasizing his disbelief.
