    Tee Collins X-Xylophone segment

    Looking at the Muppet Wiki page on Tee Collins, the main body of the article mentions an "X-xylophone" segment he did, with a quote saying "it was hard coming up with a happy word for the letter X" (and now the link it's sourced from no longer works). But then there's a gallery of his segments...

    Dreams about Muppets

    I dreamt I was watching a stage production of The Frog Prince, and it was a bit extended from the special. As I woke up this morning I thought I could even detail the whole thing from start to finish, but now I'm starting to forget some. But there were three instances where Robin went to the...

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    Watching all those street scenes with Don Music, it seems he didn't bang on the head that often in street scenes as he did in the sketches with Kermit. I thought about asking "geeze, did he ever bang his head on the piano in the street scenes?" But I see that he did in his last appearance (which...

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    In that one with Bob, Susan, and Telly, when Don introduces himself at the beginning ("They call me Mr. Music. Why? Well, because that's my name. Don Music to be exact. And by coincidence I happen to play music, sing music, and write music") should have been his debut appearance, but it came...

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    I was slightly thrown off. It said "1972 street scenes" and I mistakenly thought it was street scenes from the year 1972. It is kind of distinctive when episode numbers match years that the show has been on the air.

    Dog City General Discussion

    I watched the show when it was originally on. I don't think I knew anyone else who really watched it (well, I think it was on at 8 in the morning, not sure how likely others are up that early.... I wonder how I got up that early, as I didn't use an alarm clock and don't remember asking my...

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    Watching the scenes from episode 1875, with Snuffy buying pants and having to pay, I wonder, who saw him pay? Somebody at the store must have seen him pay for the pants. Maybe they were too busy to see who was buying what, or maybe they actually had a Snuffleupagus employed (I was actually...

    The Official Top 10 Anything...

    One thing I like about Monkey Business is that it's one of the few to feature them all (whether Zeppo is included or not) as a group from start to finish. Most of them begin with Chico and Harpo as a duo who meet and join Groucho later on, with Groucho and Zeppo being a separate duo (if Zeppo is...

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    This is How I'm Made is interesting. I saw it only aired in one episode, I wonder what is wrong with it. I can't really decide if it's really great or just ordinary. With so many segments it could probably be hard to air everything every season, but until season 29 it would have been possible to...

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    I forgot to add that pretty much all of the songs on the first Sesame Street album were rerecorded, even if they had the same characters and performers. Some songs had completely different singers. So for the album, they most likely replaced the hippie Anything Muppets with monsters (the...

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    While there is a picture from the original Up and Down, taken from the book Sesame Street Book of Puzzlers, there’s not yet a screenshot of the AMs singing the bulk of the song. And actually, as I look at the pages for both episode 60 and “Up and Down”, that image is no longer on either page.

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Aside from the lost episodes, is there any evidence that they have skipped any episodes (the website shows what all is available)?

    The "You know what?" thread

    I have had the Marx Brothers on my mind quite a bit lately, been watching several of the movies as well as having recently subscribed to the Marx Brothers Council podcast. One thing I've been thinking about, that was discussed on the podcast at least, is that Chico Marx gets discussed and...

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    This reminds me a little of how sesamestreet.org seemed to stop adding new classic clips in 2010, with the exception of a brief period in 2011 where they added a lot of classic clips, many of them rare clips with rare characters (including the first time many of us got to hear Aristotle's voice...

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    I thought they uploaded plenty of classic clips during the anniversary. Though many of them were "collections" videos of multiple clips or mash-ups of clips (not to mention the "Sesame Street Rewind" series which I wish they didn't discontinue).

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    I had wondered about them not releasing classic clips on their channel since March. Maybe it is more important to focus on what they’ve been doing, but wouldn’t it be safer/more social distancing to put existing clips online than getting together to do all these segments? And I know, some are...

    "Major and important" Muppet announcement coming soon

    Many politically incorrect cartoons were also included in the Walt Disney Treasures line, often with an introduction/disclaimer by Leonard Maltin before the cartoons.

    Little things we've noticed

    It seems like in every sketch in which a Muppet is shown taking a bath, the bath tub is reasonably small and looks like it's portable and separate from the wall and floor, as opposed to being sculpted into the back wall. Pretty much every bath tub I have seen in a home is sculpted into the...
