Was thinking about one trivia trope, The Danza, where an actor plays a character with the same first name. The trope namer is Tony Danza, who almost always plays a character named Tony on a television series (though he voiced a character named Mickey on Baby Talk). Shouldn't this be called The...

Oscar should like onions. They are disgusting, and grouches would like disgusting foods.

It seems like the end credits sequence for Sesame Street: 20 and Still Counting is rare. It was cut from the DVD release, and I don’t think it’s ever been online (and I have searched). Even before it came to DVD, the end credits were not included in YouTube uploads. There’s a few uploads of...

I don’t think talking about all the marathons of a different show would be that long or big a deal. Many of the shows did have multiple marathons (and I’m not counting shows that got a Block Party Summer night), but I don’t think they got a ton of marathons. Some examples I recall: Happy Days...

And after this, I remembered The Trading Game, which I had also thought was from the second season (for the same reasons). And I checked the season 3 segments page to see if either was a holdover segment from season 2 (neither are noted, I'm not sure if either shows up after season 16, when the...

That is unfortunate, whatever is going on. I had gotten to see a lot to segments and street stories that I had really wanted to see thanks to you, and there are some that I was really hoping to see (maybe I should have tried asking). But there have been at least one or two others who have...

I just got through the Mister Ed episode and didn't notice anything about that beyond talking about when it came to Nick at Nite and was on Nickelodeon's Summer Fan Club. Then I started another and saw that it lists its Nickelodeon run in text (as opposed to announcement). Still, if I did these...

No I don't.

I first got Nickelodeon in 1992, surprised I don't remember Dixie. I remember being able to see Rugrats and Peanuts on Nick at Nite once (it was usually after my bedtime on Sundays), I recall seeing Snoopy's Getting Married Charlie Brown on Nick at Nite, can't remember which Rugrats episode I...

Jerry Nelson worked with Jim before Sesame Street, when there wasn't a lot of work for all of Jim's crew, and he had to let him go since he was the newest hire, but would occasionally let him perform when needed. I don't know why he didn't ask him to do Sesame Street until after the first season...

His first performance with the Muppets was in The Great Santa Claus Switch, and Muppet Wiki says that he did voice a character.

Didn't really notice Jim doing a lack of Anything Muppets in season two. Though in season one, the main performers were Jim, Frank, and Caroll, and it seems Caroll didn't get a lot of lead AM roles. Season two brought on Jerry Nelson, so they likely wanted to utilize him a lot. There were...

I found a series about the many shows that have aired on Nickelodeon. The web series is called Nick Knacks. This playlist shows that so far, there are 91 episodes (I've only watched the most recent one, on Looney Tunes). I'll have many hours to catch up (though I guess I don't care about every...

I’ve been watching this a lot more in the last few months…. And I am really enjoying it a lot more than I did when it first surfaced online. As I keep listening, I feel like one of the backup vocals sounds a bit like the voice Kevin Clash tended to use for young characters (like Sam in Getting...

Somebody got a copy of the first draft of the Follow That Bird script and talks about the differences on YouTube. It is really interesting. Some things I had suspected/wondered about are explained in the script.

I don't expect to really get an answer, but in that daycare episode, Martin Robinson is obviously wearing Bruno (since Irvine is in the trash can), when he enters he makes some kind of grunt sound. Makes me wonder if it was Robinson (since he was in the character) or Caroll Spinney (who was...

It was trying to be like Blue’s Clues. Nick Jr. aired the same episode all week. I think I saw an article that talked about why they did that with Blue’s Clues, can’t remember if it made it easier to learn when they got the same lesson all five days or if kids liked getting to rewatch the same...

Huh. All this time I thought he counted backwards from 20 (maybe other people’s false memory?). I guess I subconsciously continued to assume that after seeing it online.

He did say that the only kind of rabbit he’s not allergic to is a stewed rabbit. I guess that way he’s unaffected, or maybe he was just going to stew the rabbit for the evil of it and not actually eat it.

One thing I didn’t think about until this week: Miami Mice does involve 20, but it’s counting backwards from 20 (kinda fitting for a numbers collection to end with a lesson on counting backwards), but it seems like it’s not as about 20 as I had thought. Going by the Muppet Wiki description and...
