I used to think Kermit didn't appear in much Sesame Street merchandise because I used to think that both Henson and Sesame Workshop co-owned the Sesame Street characters until 2000 and maybe Henson didn't want their fully owned character in Sesame Workshop merchandise. But I think it might be...

The packaging on that mask does not say which character it is, so maybe somebody put a Kermit mask in the wrong box (is it pictured on the back?).

I like that we now know who performed the X in "How I Miss My X". I had been wondering about that back when the 50th anniversary DVD was released, and I'd suspected it was either Kevin Clash (who it was), Richard Hunt, or Martin Robinson.

Last night I dreamt that there was a Sesame Workshop employee who was also one of us, who had access to rare episodes and clips, and actually was allowed to share anything from Sesame Workshop online. I didn't make any requests for him on what I wanted to see, and I actually didn't see other...

I know. I had been wondering if they'd just acquired more documents than before, but I guess it doesn't really matter.

It seems like the trusted sources now include info on who all performed in certain segments. Not sure if these are newly-acquired documents (maybe call sheets) or if that info had been there all along and their just now adding info, but it is neat to see who all performed in sketches such as Do...

I've been surprised to hear that some of the episodes this season did not air in high definition. I thought basically everything was shot in high definition these days, why present it only in standard definition (and is it difficult to convert to standard definition if it was shot in HD?). I...

Muppet Wiki points out that some of the celebrities who contributed to the celebrity version of Put Down the Duckie didn't appear in any Sesame Street material outside that montage (I guess it's possible they did segments that didn't test well enough to make it to the show or the final aired...

Well, the heads and bodies are usually separate pieces. I typically notice it on Ernie when he's in the bath tub. Recently, somebody on Facebook was telling me that many of the Muppets have removable parts. Not too sure how true this is, but they were saying that heads and arms are often...

Considering the smaller number of episodes each season (even if it's gone up a little since 2016) and the fact that they're 30 minutes now, it is a wonder that they repeat non-recurring segments multiple times a season, much less this many times.

I don't feel right talking about it, but I heard that John John has a Bill Cosby-level offense. I wondered if Sesame Workshop would stop putting out his segments, since it's not as well-known as the Cosby thing. I have noticed that John John clips seem to no longer be available in the official...

If you click "more info", you'll get to a list. You can click arrows for more pages and see them all, or you can click on a "view all" and see the whole list in one page.

I thought there were three orange Oscar's. There's the first one, which clearly didn't have any arms. Then there was a fuzzy orange Oscar that had at least one arm (could they have just added it to the original very easily?). And then there was an orange Oscar with much smoother fur than the...

I've already noticed that seasons 2 and 3 have the highest number of lost episodes, I can't remember which one has more (one has around 20 missing, the other has around 30 missing).

Looking at the page for 1936, I learned of an alteration to an old sketch that I was not aware of (but am not surprised they did). It has the Kermit and Grover "toothbrush salesman" sketch, but cuts the ending, I assume the whole part where Kermit bites Grover (surely that's not a post-roll that...

It's been a long time since the show re-aired anything from the 1980s, not to mention fullframe content (though Elmo's World has been presented in widescreen), so of course they'd reshoot it if they represented it on the show today.

I've been watching the promo for the talking Baby Sinclair doll commercial quite a bit lately, and in listening, I think there's something off about his voice. Anybody know if Kevin Clash voiced it as usual or if somebody else did? Sounds close, but something does not sound right. And maybe it...

So for season 16, Gordon, Maria, and Linda all believed in Mr. Snuffleupagus, even though they wouldn't meet him for a year. Until the trusted sources guides came to the wiki, it seems like none of the fans had any episodes that mentioned them believing in Snuffy (with the exception of...

I wasn't really counting the Star Wars characters, but it seems like Mark Hamil and Carol Burnett are the only guest stars to play characters who are separate from them (as opposed to characters they play on stage while in the episode context they are playing themselves) in addition to...

Today I've noticed that in the few times when a Muppet Show guest star appeared as one of their signature characters, they appeared as such backstage as opposed to on-stage. Peter Sellers appeared as Inspector Clousea in his dressing room cold open, and Gilda Radner was Emily Litella in her...
