I see that it can be rented on iTunes for 19.99 (I figured it’d be on iTunes but recently started being unsure). As soon as I get an iTunes gift card with enough money I’ll rent it.
I think it's weird that Gonzo is the one challenged as opposed to somebody who might be more likely to be scared, like Kermit or Fozzie or Scooter. I feel Gonzo would thoroughly enjoy it.
Ignoring the Moo Wave name, would How Now Brown and the Moo Wave be required to only sing New Wave music, as opposed to branching out into other music styles (maybe make How Now Brown a solo singer if needed)? How Now Brown looks like he could have done punk music or Billy Idol parodies.
Weren't there still plenty of MTV new wave rock videos, regardless of how many different ways they were?
Maybe they could have done some more direct parodies of specific New Wave songs. Even though more direct song parodies were usually done by Muppet parodies of the actual singers (though...
I have recently been wondering if How Now Brown could have easily been replaced by Little Chrissy. Both characters sing rock and roll songs and both were voiced by Christopher Cerf. How Now Brown only did two songs, both from the same year, and both of which ran until the 1990s, so it's not like...

There's a song I recently heard on the radio a few times, although I think I understand enough lyrics, I have trouble finding what the song is via typing in the lyrics.
I'm not sure who the singer is, but the lead singer is a woman, and there's a chorus of children. To me it sounds like it...
Forgetful was in street scenes just as often as he was in inserts taking place away from the street (though maybe there were less inserts with him out in the old west by the end of his run).
Brian Meehl as Alphabet Bates.
1329 Alphabet Bates Makes an O - YouTube
While I noticed he seemed to be talking with a French accent in Everybody Makes Mistakes, I wasn't expecting him to also be speaking French on the show. I guess it's good they kept up with the consistency (is there...
And of course, Michael Earl was a main performer from 1979-1981 (he has said that during that time, he, Meehl, and Spinney were the only Muppet performers available on a daily basis), and in the late-1980s and early-1990s Camille Bonora was on quite a bit (though none of her characters really...
I am pleasantly surprised that very few segments seem to have been blocked due to being on HBO Max (and I've even seen that some people have uploaded entire episodes, which I have actually resisted watching on YouTube). The Monsterpiece Theater segment The Monsters of Venice has been blocked in...
The theme song from Nearly Departed, a very short-lived sitcom that I didn't really know about until recently (though I did tape something that had a promo for it).
Nearly Departed theme and titles - YouTube
There have been times when video had been blocked due to having content featured in a documentary or something only to come back later. There was that period when Lions Gate blocked Sesame Street footage that appeared in 20 and Still Counting, and there was a period when segments that were...
I've recently learned of a handful of short-lived sitcoms - Jennifer Slept Here, Nearly Departed - where the concept is that somebody died and their spirit continues to live in their old home while a new family lives there, with only one person able to see and hear them.
The shows didn't last...
Hey Arnold recast many of the characters, and I never noticed without it being pointed out (currently I can hear differences better).
I knew about Arnold’s first recast before I heard it (the others I think I first knew after the episodes aired), one Hey Arnold website reported it with “why...
It was interesting seeing them make the new characters, seeing them put fabric on blocks of foam.
I wasn’t expecting it to be that (but I guess I didn’t really think about It). I was thinking that the puppets were entirely made by what was on the outside, that the fabric was naturally that...
In the 1970s, it seems like Jerry performed 90 percent of the recurring characters, then in the 1980s and later, he didn’t get as many new recurring characters on the show, while continuing to do one-shots frequently (and to an extent this seems the case for The Muppets as well, even as many...
The promos made it seem like it'd be more of a look back at the show in general than it's focus on more important topics that the show has been addressing. Makes me wonder if the network was worried about turning off certain viewers. The second half felt more like I was watching an ABC news...
Recently I've seen a few fans on Facebook point out that Jerry Nelson seemed less available in seasons 14-18 (the time when he was performing on Fraggle Rock), which I didn't think he was that scarce. I guess after Fraggle Rock ended, he was able to be on Sesame Street a lot more.
