I've noticed that at the beginning of Big Hello 1-20, there's quite a few seconds of silence before Big Bird starts talking. That segment seems like something that would open an episode, so I wonder if perhaps that segment originally began with the ending of the theme song and it was muted for...

I recently saw the recent street story where Ernie directs a movie with Bert, and have thought of three great ideas for DVDs that could include that one. One, an idea I've already had, would be a new Bert and Ernie spotlight video, with this episode and the flood episode where they stay at...

So has that big nonfiction book on the Ninja Turtles been released yet? I thought I'd heard it was released (and haven't heard anything about it since), but I haven't found a copy anywhere. Though I have found a TMNT book advertised as an "ultimate fan book", but it appears to be more for...

When I started reading that I thought you were saying it was a Pearl and Deena (as in Deena and Pearl) segment from Sesame Street.

Last night I saw a couple episodes of Lassie (well, parts of them) where it seemed like there were no humans at all, and then was told that there was a season that rarely had humans (and then I read the wikipedia page which confirmed that). What's the deal with that? Were they trying to work...

Recently I saw that Funko Pop released a Chuckie toy, only it's advertised as Child's Play 2. What's the deal with that? It couldn't just be advertised as a "Child's Play" (or a "Chuckie") toy? I'm pretty sure the toy wasn't some CH2 variation.

I tend to think about how England-based performers usually only perform in productions made in England, and Canandian-based performers are limited to Canandian productions, and yet there doesn't seem to be any problems getting American-based performers to perform in productions made outside of...

I wonder if speed makes a difference in credit sequences regarding whether they're all stacks of credits that show up, then disappear, then another stack (which comprises all of TMMs credits but only parts of the other credits) vs. having the credits scroll up. The first few times I saw The...

During the Jim Henson Video era it seems many Disney "video guides" would have a big Jim Henson Video section. I can't remember if this was the case for most of them, but I remember at least one of them (the first of these I remember) the Muppet section was upside-down compared to the rest of...

There are a lot of productions not mentioned in The Works (or only mentioned in the timeline chapter). That book didn't provide any mention of such unsold pilots as Land of Tinkerdee, Star Boppers, or The Wizard of Id (though it's possible the master tapes were lost and later found, maybe also...

One thing that's on my mind is Thog's appearance in the number "I Feel the Earth Move". Besides being a giant in that appearance, I've always thought there was something different/odd about his appearance compared to his other appearances. In almost all his other appearances he has a rather...

I think I still have one of these, though I'm not completely sure. Ditto with a few additional "video guides" with Muppet sections that were packaged with Disney releases at the time.

I felt like it made a bit more sense, since Sex and Violence feels more like a Muppet Show pilot than the Valentines Show. I think they wanted to include both but there wasn't disc space for both (though season three was able to make room for The Muppets on Puppets, with some of the discs having...

I mentioned that it was listed among her filmography at Muppet Wiki (and there is a picture there). http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Mean_Mama

I just noticed that on the page for Howard Tubman, it mentions that his first love is musical theater choreography. I guess that's meant to reference his role in It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie. The original mock-up pages that were shown online included a picture from The Muppets'...

According to the Mean Mama page at Muppet Wiki, Mean Mama's last appearance was in an episode of Dog City (and the page has a picture from her appearance). However, it is not said which episode she appeared in. I checked "what links here" but couldn't find any Dog City episodes, and then I...

The good thing is that all of those clips can be viewed online without Dr. Teeth's voice-over (as most Muppet Show clips on YouTube re taken from the episodes they originated in as opposed to the compilations), but back then viewers didn't have that option (though the show was more widely...

Thinking about the possibilities of a trading card collection where each card is of a scene from the show, here's what clips I'd represent: 1. Big Bird Meets Sally (episode 1) 2. Rubber Duckie (season 2) 3. C is for Cookie (original) 4. Wanda the Witch 5. Snuffy in the New York marathon 6. Luis...

Another observation about "Rock Music" is that Beaker makes a LOT more explosions than I had remembered. I thought he only made explosions in the intro to "Don't Blame the Dynamite" (and mistakenly thought that was when Dr. Teeth told Beaker to promise he'll never do that again before Beaker...

At one point in the Rugrats episode "Feeding Hubert", Angelica gives the Rugrats tips on how to make a "can of monster food", but why is Angelica helping the babies there? Considering her first line when she enters is her asking if they're talking about the "monster" who eats their trash, I...
