There's a lot that I really like to learn about and talk about, some more than others, and even some of the stuff I'm least interested in I'll have occasions where I'll be really interested in learning or thinking about what I know (such as the various international versions of Sesame Street)...

I guess I missed this, but I didn't realize the missing bits were completed so long ago (in February 2018). I recently looked at the page, after nearly all of the 1990s episodes were given complete rundowns thanks to trusted sources, and I thought that was the source for what was missing, but...

Using the "what links here" feature on Muppet Wiki on some segments with Sully, and I've recently found that not very many segments where Richard Hunt performed Sully aired after season 24. I was a bit surprised to see this. The only one I know off-hand that aired in the late-1990s is This is...

Something else I've realized. Again using Muppet Wiki's "what links here" feature to determine last appearances (or last known) of segments, seems like if I remember a certain classic Muppet insert airing (or hearing about one airing) between seasons 30-32, chances are good that that was the...

I don't know if this belongs here or in the "what's the deal with....?" thread, but at the beginning of The Addams Family, Gomez's lawyer pitches a special kind of business fund, something to celebrate Fester, but Gomez refuses to fund it or discuss it just because it's new business, with a...

I see two episodes listed that are crossed out, with a note that he's only listed in the cast. I assume that's because, whether he's in there or not, we wouldn't be able to know who performed him if we saw an English copy the footage. But it is kinda weird they'd note Elmo in the cast if he...

Last night I dreamt that I watched part of The Muppet Movie... with some different edits/takes. It was the balloon scene. In this version, Doc Hopper getting hit with the pie was different. The pie instead landed on the ground just ahead of the car, which then drove into the pie. And it was...

I was looking at the "what links here" feature on some photos at the Muppet Wiki, which can show all wiki pages that include pictures from certain Sesame Street segments. Since there's pages for every episode since season 20, with only a handful of post-season 20 pages with incomplete...

Okay I've looked at some fairly recent uploads of clips from the 1970s and 1980s, and have noticed a bit of fuzziness in movement. I've noticed it the most in their most recently-uploaded classic clip ("Bert wants to play a game"), with a little fuzziness at parts of the screen where movement...

Come to think of it, I have noticed some clips look a lot better on DVD than Sesame Workshop's official uploads. And there are cases where I feel certain clips look worse on DVD then when Sesame Workshop uploaded them (the only one I can think of right now is the first two releases of Kermit...

In Back to the Future Part III, when Doc accidentally brings up Marty's future car accident, which had not yet happened to Marty, Marty asks what accident and Doc decides not to say on grounds that he shouldn't know too much about his own future, Marty asks "what is wrong with my future?"...

The original post did only say "digitize" but nothing of restoring or remastering. Hmm, I wonder how often Sesame Workshop restores/remasters footage, or if there really is a need. Whenever something old is released on DVD/digital or whenever Sesame Workshop uploads an old clip online, the...

Thinking about the Old School DVDs and Sesame Street Classics on iTunes, it seems like Sesame Street Classics has a more random selection of episodes. Of course it helps that the Old School volumes all stick to the format of season premiers (and quite a few of them do seem like notable episodes...

I noticed that, also noticed that a few of those other episodes already had pages, taken from incomplete copies (so we were soooooo close to early Elmo....). I don't think Sesame Street Canada removed things for being too American (can't really think of many Sesame Street segments about...

I thought they already digitized every episode a long time ago.

I also know that some episodes from seasons 29-32 or so had PBS reruns that replaced certain segments, with some segments only airing as part of the rerun versions and never in a true original version of an episode.

Looking at the Milo Counting page on Muppet Wiki, after every episode past season 20 has a page and most of those episodes have complete guides, I see that there was never a higher number than 13. I'm also surprised to see that there was no 10 segment, when all other numbers between 7 and 13 got...

Today I went to see Steve Whitmire at Louisville Supercon, that was fun. I believe it's the first time I've been to a convention. Not to mention the first time I met somebody who has officially worked for the Muppet, got a picture taken with them, and got their autograph. When I arrived, he...

Last night I posted a wishlist of potential "All Time Favorites" albums, and now I see that the albums have already been released and their contents on the wiki. So they're "All-Time Favorites 1" and "All-Time Favorites 2", and it seems like they're primarily re-organized versions of Platinum...

I saw a press release that mentioned "All Time Favorites", not sure if that's intended as a line of releases like the recent "letters" line or just a stand-alone release, but I have been thinking about it, as if it were a series of character spotlight releases. I know some of the recent "letters...
