    Facts That Don't Add Up

    Seems like for some things, Sesame Workshop tries not to give details that are a bit "dark". For example, the 40th anniversary book and a number of obituaries merely say that Nothern Calloway left the show due to health reasons, but Street Gang says he was let go to to many problems (Street Gang...

    The Muppet Mindset

    I hate to say it in a thread devoted to The Muppet Mindset, but I liked the Tough Pigs interview better. It had more info. I suspet the interview happened after the first one, since Michael Earl mentioned the Tough Pigs interview, and I guess there's not much Henson-related material to ask him...

    The Muppet Mindset

    I was surprised to see Michael Earl interviewed by the mindset so soon after Tough Pigs interviewed him. These are the first interviews I've read with that performer.

    "The Muppets" Official US Poster and Standee

    I've noticed the Moopets hidden in the poster, Miss Poogy and the Rowlf Moopet being most noticable. The Kermit Moopet seems to be squashed at the bottom. And yet it looks like the Janice Moopet is there twice. There's one instance where we can see a little of her face, by Scooter, and then it...

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    I thought I already said a few times here, but I only remember one other "new" shot, which went by quickly and can't remember anything about it. And I don't recall seeing anybody we didn't know would be in it.

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    The whole first half was the same as the first half of the teaser trailer, then there were several clips, most of which have been in the trailers we've seen. It included Kermit's "The Muppets are about artistic integrety" line (can't remember if the "fart shoes" clip was shown, but I think it...

    Elmo's World People in Your Neighborhood and Elmo's Travel Songs and Games

    That's good to know, though I am a little confused. So are you saying that the classic "People in Your Neighborhood" clips are just parts of the clips or the whole segments? It's good to know that at least part of the original "People in Your Neighborhood" is finally on video. Also, you...

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    It went by fast and I can't remember many details, but I'm thinking there was another crowd/group shot taking place in some sort of studio. I searched YouTube to see if it's been posted but have been unable to find this version of the trailer. Just Sweetums, Thog, and the Mutations.

    It's "Counting with the Count Day" with... Oh, who is it again... Oh... Oh, yeah, with The Count.

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    I went to see Winnie the Pooh today and finaly saw a Muppets trailer in the theater. There weren't many others watching, and the movie didn't get much response (I didn't hear any laughing until after the trailer ended). I don't think it's been mentioned on the forum, but the trailer in front...

    Why They Left

    Well, Michael Earl was interviewed by Tough Pigs, and he gave the reason why he was no longer on Sesame Street after season 12. He was let go, due to budget cuts and because the workshop didn't think his performance had improved during his three years on the show (he was told he needed training...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Spoofs DVD Set

    Not very many News Flash segments are really parodies. While they may involve fairy tales and nursery rhymes and usually have different endings than what's expected, they are pretty much the same story or nursery rhyme. The characters (usually) have the same names as in the original story. But...

    Which characters have had their own song since the switch to HD?

    I've been thinking, since the show started being recorded in high definition, which characters have had their own songs? I'm sure that Elmo has had many songs since, though I figure most are either with a celebrity or other characters. As for who I know has had a song of their own since, I...

    Monsterpiece Theater timeline speculation

    Was just watching Chariots of Fur, and noticed that the window seems to look a bit different from the majority of sketches. Also noticed another bookshelf on the right of the window there. I also noticed that Alistair Cookie's chair was only green in the segments where the intro and outro were...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    I saw the info changed at Muppet Wiki, though when looking at the editing history page it just said a confusing "we don't even know if the triangle and square street scenes will be included" (what square street scenes???).

    New character ideas

    It's amazing. I suggested the idea of an obsessed Muppet fan, and it seems the new movie will give us that in Walter.

    Classic Clips on SST Workshop's Site

    That does seem like a good explanation. Too bad they didn't feel the need to add clips with Dr. Nobel Price, Leslie Mostly, or Deena and Pearl (or the super-rare Shivers the Penguin). Also a shame they didn't add a few more Roosevelt Franklin or Professor Hastings clips for the occasion.

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    Muppet Wiki now lists all the street stories in it. It'll have four street stories, and for a DVD themed around shapes, three of them are about triangles. I would think more variety should be in order, though I don't know how many street stories there are concerning shapes that are not...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    According to Muppet Wiki, the Sesame Street DVD after Elmo's Music Magic will be Elmo's Shape Adventure. Currently there's no cover image or description. We'll probably see the cover soon and learn more details, but for now we don't know if it'll be a release of street stories, an all-original...

    Did 123 Sesame Street ever have a landlord?

    Looking at Muppet Wiki, the episode where the cast gets locked on the roof is episode 1285, which is currently available on iTunes. Too bad his name wasn't mentioned in the episode.
