    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    I've seen an (I assume) official description for Count on Elmo, which mentions that Elmo, Abby, Grover, and Cookie Monster all secretly nominate The Count, which wasn't in the episode as aired. Assuming this wasn't a big "Cowboy Bebop at his computer" mistake, I guess there'll be more footage...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    Well it probably wasn't easy back then to colorize live-action programming back then (and even after computer colorizing was possible, there's hardly any black and white shows with colorized episodes), but with today's technology it's probably easier to change full frame to widescreen or whatever.

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    What if Nick at Nite started showing a lot more sitcoms with as much of the Full House cast as possible? Like that one show Bob Saget starred in (was there only one?), or Hudson Street (a short-lived sitcom with Lori Loughan which premiered the season after FH ended)? Better yet, they could be...

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4525 - Grover Does It All

    I know, but he has been trained to perform most of Jerry Nelson's characters and did perform the puppet in Jerry's last years (The Count is the only one of his Sesame Street characters Matt has provided the voice of). David Rudman did perform Mr. Johnson in EIG. I feel he sounded too much...

    Happy 60th Birthday Kermit the Frog!

    Suddenly I've been thinking, Disney has more-or-less officially considered May 9 to be Kermit's birthday, and many of the Sesame Street Muppets have official birth dates, but I wonder if any of the other Muppets have official birth dates. Are there official birthdays for Miss Piggy, Fozzie...

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4525 - Grover Does It All

    Although I haven't seen this episode, I feel like it would be a great street story to include if they ever come out with another Grover spotlight video. "Grover Does It All" could even be the theme of the video, with the street story either at the beginning or end, or perhaps with it cut up into...

    Does anyone have something like a Fraggle hole?

    I've seen something like a Fraggle Hole at work before. I often joked that it is one.

    The Official Top 10 Anything...

    Today, Caroll Spinney answered fan question on Reddit's "Ask me Anything". Here is the top ten topics I wish I had thought to ask about: 10. Did Bruno have a full head of hair, or was he bald underneath his cap? 9. Anything about Shivers the Penguin. 8. Wish I'd asked about one of the specials...

    Caroll Spinney on Reddit AMA 5/7

    Well, it was great. I was wondering how big a number of people participating would be, since I hadn't seen much announcements at the right places (I heard about this via the Tough Pigs forum, and posted about it here, and neither thread had many replies). It was good to see a lot of people...

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    Here's an episode that I haven't seen since 1994: Wow, that Genie is performed by Brian Meehl. I was thinking it was Marty Robinson.

    Caroll Spinney on Reddit AMA 5/7

    Well, it starts in a little over an hour. Hopefully I'll know what to do and be able to send my question. There's been a few times I participated in similar chats but wasn't able to get my questions sent (or at least not seen by the important ones). I'm guessing I'll only be able to ask one...

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4525 - Grover Does It All

    What "Matching Game" drawing? Though now I'm remembering that, when I was a young kid, I thought Bert and Guy Smiley looked too similar (their only real similarity being their skin and hair colors) and for some reason at the time thought that characters who looked too similar shouldn't appear...

    Diamond Select Toys to Produce new Muppet figures and mini mates!

    So they said that there's plans this year for one character who wasn;t made into a figure by Palisades, and that it was an important character, yet they seemed to state that it won't be Walter, and I think I saw something that said that only characters from The Muppet Show are planned for this...

    The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Thread!

    I was looking at the Peanuts animation website, which lists what's included in the upcoming "Emmy specials" collection, as well as whether something was nominated or won, and only one of the included specials actually won. I mentioned that this seems like an honorary "1980s collection", as...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    I think the second volume of Elmo the Musical recently got a wide release. I saw a trailer for it on YouTube recently (meant to bring it up then but forgot), and today I saw that The Muppet Mindset has a review of the video (which doesn't necessarily mean it was just recently given a wide release).

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4525 - Grover Does It All

    Aside from the fact that they are now performed by the same person, why wouldn't anybody expect to see them together? I don't think it'd be a stretch for Bert to appear on a game show, especially if the prize is something he likes (like bottle caps or paper clips). If anything Guy could put Bert...

    Questions about anything

    Does anybody know what the first film or TV program (or maybe even radio program) to have something cut from later releases/broadcasts was to have said cut scenes restored later on?
