    Steve Whitmire 2018 Convention Appearances

    Speaking of GalaxyCon, they chose not to do it in my area this year, though it’s not because of Coronavirus - it was announced on the week before so many places shut down because of it. It was because the area needed them to guarantee more out-of-town visitors than they thought they could get...

    Sesame Street Records Returns

    There’s a new Apple Music release (I think it’s exclusive to Apple Music) called Sesame Street Cast Essentials. And like with many releases of the last couple of years, it is a letdown. it seems to be half-true essentials (like Rubber Duckie) and half-stuff I wouldn’t call essentials, like...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street 50 Years and Counting DVD Set

    I think it was both. Sesame Workshop censored it back in season 2, and then Noggin edited it from a season one episode. It doesn't seem like it aired much after season two (and I guess the season one recording was the only copy most fans had all these years). I remember years ago, reading...

    Put Down the Duckie in Bob’s Favorite Street Songs

    Recently, I’ve downloaded the album Bob’s Favorite Street Songs, and one of the songs included is Put Down the Duckie, which Bob sings with somebody else. Anybody know who Bob sang it with on the album? It doesn’t say on the digital info, and Muppet Wiki doesn’t say, either. I wouldn’t be...

    April Fools: Insider info on Old School sets

    Here's basics of what I was going to say these files said about volumes 3-5 (if they continued being season premiers) would have had as bonus clips. Of course this was for the sake of an April Fools joke. I do not know if they planned a volume 3 or bonus feature contents for volume 3 back when...

    April Fools: Insider info on Old School sets

    I had actually had this idea for the last few months. One thing I was going to say, but I think I forgot to, was that for the first volume, an agreement was made not to include too much of the same character in the bonus features (which seemed to be the case with the bonus features, with...

    April Fools: Dinosaurs CGI Reboot Coming to Disney+

    I had debated over whether to say Kevin Clash would return as Baby or if Ryan Dillion would do the voice, or if another voice actor would do it. And I had debated this morning over whether it should be CGI or the same live-action form as the original series (which was one of the most...

    April Fools: Insider info on Old School sets

    Just out of the blue, somebody from Sesame Workshop sent me official internal memos and documents regarding planning on the Sesame Street Old School releases, both those that have been released and those that have not (at least not yet). I've been told I'm getting these as part of a special...

    Crazy Harry speaking roles

    Oh, I didn’t realize you were mainly asking about Jerry Nelson as Crazy Harry speaking.

    Crazy Harry speaking roles

    It seems like Crazy Harry is a bit limited with dialogue though he often does speak full sentences. He does have a bit of dialogue in The Muppets Valentine Show. When he does his first "did somebody say dynamite?", the others deny it and he says "somebody said dynamite!", after they again say...

    The "You know what?" thread

    It seems like on many shows, family is a bit limited, at least when it comes to regular/main characters. It seems like on most shows that involve a family, or when the family of the main character are major characters, it's often just a household family. Usually just parents and siblings, maybe...

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    With all this talk about how rare recordings of Sesame Street are or might be, it makes me wonder what episodes were recorded off PBS by the most people. Would be hard to determine. And I'm not counting recordings off Noggin or later cable broadcasts (where more of us would want to record). I'm...

    Do you think Rudy could become the new Elmo?

    I've often felt like Telly, particularly when worrying or being indecisive. I didn't really know those types when I was a kid, but still enjoyed and related to the character. Even if there were a lot of characters I liked better. Of course until I saw it pointed out on sites like this in the...

    Little things we've noticed

    While on the packaging for The Best of Kermit on Sesame Street Kermit and Grover are only in partial tuxedos (kinda like Chippendales dancers, though we don’t see if they wear pants), yet in the actual video they both wear full tuxedos (and while the partial tuxedo look is fine on Grover, I...

    Little things we've noticed

    I thought Genius and Warner Home Video did. then again, after Genius took over video distribution, a lot of them have been harder to find. Some were more common at first, some I’ve seen in stores on rare occasions, and I kinda want to say that some Genius rereleases I’ve only seen on the wiki...

    Little things we've noticed

    To be fair, since about 1998 it's been rare for a Sesame Street video to not have Elmo on the cover, and very few covers before then had Telly. When it came to Sony Wonder's rereleases, I wonder what made them decide on whether to create a brand-new cover photo as opposed to basically using...

    Little things we've noticed

    And it's clear that Cookie Monster was superimposed into the Sing Yourself Sillier cover, so apparently a cover with just Oscar and Telly wasn't marketable enough. And it does seem like Oscar wasn't on many video covers (the Sony Wonder release of Getting Ready to Read had Big Bird in place of...

    Little things we've noticed

    I did think about that after posting, But to be fair, he wasn’t alone on the cover. Big Bird was there with him, so it’s not just a minor character by himself carrying the release. also, Forgetful Jones was more of a “core” Sesame Street Muppet than Little Chrissy and the Alphabeats. Even if...
