Elmo was on again just now (9/8) with his mommy, May. They said it was her first appearance on television, and she had a notable southern accent. One of the hosts pointed that out and wondered why Elmo didn't have one. No idea who was performing Elmo's mommy. Greg

There had been other network Sesame specials.. 1973's "Julie [Andrews] on Sesame Street" for one. Greg

Actually they were made the SAME YEAR. Both of them originally aired during the 1978 Christmas season about a week apart- "A Special Sesame Street Christmas" on CBS and "Christmas Eve on Sesame Street" on PBS. That kinda-sorta explains why "A Special..." is so bad considering they were having...

I have a few seconds of it somewhere. Greg

Somehow Elmo looks different in that clip. Less furry. When is that one from? Greg

Wow, You're really in luck on that one. That happens to be one of the 67 shows that were repeated on the Noggin cable network a few years ago. By chance is this you in this photo? http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/muppet/images/1/19/1736p.jpg Greg

My understanding is that someone knew someone who knew someone etc. who knew Carroll Spinney. Carroll had copies of those episodes (and likely others). 573 is a similar scenario, except instead of Carroll, it was somebody at CTW. Greg

That whole week (plus the previous Friday's show) is making its way on the trading circuit... just gotta know who to ask and what to offer. Greg

I apologize if I offended anyone. At first I was speculating because when I compared to the original version of the episode it didn't sound like she was singing at all. When I had discovered that she did indeed (barely) sing the song... Phillip alerted me to it by the way... we put that in...

You may be right. I had thought she only said Happy Birthday and didn't sing it, but it seems she may have sung it. Still if that's the case, silencing the audio might have been a better option there. Greg

All your questions will be answered in the review which should be on this site sometime this weekend. Watch for it! Greg

I got my copy at Wal-Mart today. Really nice that they're breaking the law by putting the set out a week early lol. I'll post contents here soon... and If Phillip will allow me (I sent an email but never got a reply) I'll post a review as well Greg

I do have a copy of "A Special Sesame Street Christmas," but that special was taped in 1978, so I'm not sure that would be it. Greg

Actually Sesame Street still tapes in Kaufman-Astoria Studios and has since 1993. Greg

These are the only ones I can remember (and these were all full weeks on location) New Mexico (1975) Hawaii (1977) Puerto Rico (1979) Camp Echo Rock (1982) Montana (1991) Greg

I realize I'm resurrecting an old thread here, but has anyone heard anything else about this site? It's June 1st and it hasn't launched. In fact there is no evidence that it's going to anytime soon--no press releases or anything like that. Greg

Here is the list of upcoming Fraggle episodes on the French kids channel Gulli. (I translated their French titles and am listing the corresponding US title.) I'm assuming these are the co-production and not just the US version translated. Une grotte pour deux - A Cave of One's Own L'eau...

No, that one hasn't made it into the hands of the traders yet. Greg

That wiki is becoming amazing. Someone must have access to SW's archives. Greg
