    If the order was reversed...

    The Zoom thing was what I was referring to. I thought it was Disney-sponsored. With the 2011 film, it is the highest grossing Muppet film, the first to actually win an Oscar, at the time it seemed like it would make the Muppets popular again, I feel like the general public is more familiar...

    Little things we've noticed

    Today I did my annual rewatch of A Muppet Family Christmas. I think I have noticed this a few years ago, but there are many rooms/parts of the house that get used in multiple scenes that until recently I had not noticed were the same room. I guess the rooms where The Electric Mayhem performs...

    If the order was reversed...

    Muppet Treasure Island seems to be getting more love this year, Disney has acknowledged the 25th anniversary (and yet they haven't really done anything to celebrate the current 10-year anniversary of the 2011 film).

    "Sesame Street Classics" HBO Max Rollouts

    Probably right. But there are other rare characters who I have less of a desire to see or have had less of a desire to see (Rockheads, Flo Bear, Professor D. Rabbit, Georgie, Granny Fanny Nestlerode… I want to say there’s another obscure classic character or two I don’t go out of my way to see...

    Sketches You Hated as a Kid

    Yeah, the one with Ernie showing his emotions is weird. The audience all seems to be annoyed with Ernie, and then they take it out on Bert because he's been doing all that talking (which wasn't particularly loud talking). And they start to take it out on Bert when everybody is laughing at the...

    "Sesame Street Classics" HBO Max Rollouts

    It also would have been nice to add more older ones considering what’s recently happened regarding uploads of old street stories. I know Muppet Wiki already had all these episodes fully guided, but are any of them episodes that previously could not be seen online or in fans tape...

    The "You know what?" thread

    I also feel like this past October went by slowly, or at least so much has happened this month that it feels longer than it should have been. Today I started wondering which question I should be asking - "at what point in history did it become common for video games to be as popular (or more...

    Any Ernst Fans?

    I wonder if that’s why Bill Byrne stopped appearing in the films after Ernest Goes to School, though that one was shot in Canada (and Ernest Saves Christmas was shot in Florida). Linda Kash’s first role in an Ernest film was Ernest Rides Again, which I thought was shot in Tennessee. If I am...

    Any Ernst Fans?

    Many of the same supporting actors have shown up in multiple Ernest movies, in different roles (these last few weeks I have been finding out about a few more actors who returned to later films). I feel like many of them frequently appeared in John Cherry’s works (Ernest and non-Ernest). And...

    Questions about anything

    Okay, for those who might have seen this and been wondering, I recently found the song I was asking about (and the lyrics turn out to be a lot different from what I typed here - though I still have trouble understanding quite a few of them). The song is "When I Looked at Him" by Expose. I was...

    Any Ernst Fans?

    This might be a coincidence, but two of the duos Bobby was part of include a name that went with another duo involving a Bob. First, there's Chuck and Bobby, Soap had Chuck and Bob. Though a contrast is that of the Soap duo, Bob was the more talkative one while Chuck was still relatively...

    Dreams about Muppets

    I dreamt that The Muppet Musicians of Bremen had more scenes. like one where Mortecai goes looking for Leroy, who hides in a tunnel, and Kermit hides in darkness and only showing his shadow to Mortecai, as he told him Leroy went in the other direction. And the animals went to a neighborhood...

    I feel like season one has a bit of a charm to it.

    Okay, I didn't see anything to indicate it came from that source.

    Video: Sesame Street Evening at the Pops from 1971 on YouTube

    So are people expecting this to be taken down just because of what's happened regarding the recent online leaking of many rare episodes? Maybe it will get taken down quickly (sometimes things go online and then are no longer there within a few days), or maybe it will last a while online.

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    I wondered if episodes from the early 1990s (and earlier than that) had altered reruns. I guess it is possible (there is a sandbox page listing script inconsistencies, makes me wonder if some cases were just the wiki people having copies of altered reruns). It's been said that Alphabet Polka...

    Little things we've noticed

    I guess that's helpful for segments that only aired when the scripts noted first appearance episode numbers as opposed to season. I recall when the wiki first got info on Leslie Mostly's interview with Kermit, that had a detailed description (and I don't think any of us had video footage...

    Little things we've noticed

    I was surprised when I learned that the episode scripts usually transcribe Muppet inserts in their first appearances. I figured those would be their own separate scripts and they would just be listed in all scripts (including their first). Then I thought they wrote them as separate scripts which...

    Little things we've noticed

    Are those street shots sometimes cut from episodes? I saw on Scott's wiki page "to do list" a long time ago he noted scripts being inconsistent with the run time on "Imagination", I'm guessing various episodes shortened the segment a bit and the scripts reflected that (with the longest noted run...
