    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    And despite that, going by the sketch listing for Elmo's Travel Games and Songs at Muppet Wiki, it still only has five inserts, focusing the most on the new footage.

    Sesame Street Classic Episodes Vol. 1 now available for download on iTunes and Amazon

    I've read at Tough Pigs that while the first episode is presented uncut, the cleaning film is removed from episode 123. Odd that they could get it cleared for one episode (where it was cut on the DVD releases) yet not on another.

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    Looking at Muppet Wiki, it mentions that Learning Letters with Elmo will have three street stories. It was said that it'll have The A-Team episode in addition to the previously-mentioned episodes (Fetch the J and Elmo changes his name to Jelmo). With the announced running time of 50-minutes and...

    Threadless Muppet T-Shirt Design Challenge

    Anybody know whether these shirts will only be sold online or if they'll be sold in regular retail stores as well?

    When did Steve start performing Ernie?

    According to the 40th anniversary book, Steve Whitmire's first performance as Ernie was in the sketch where Ernie and Bert go fishing, when Ernie keeps catching fish and Bert doesn't. That's the only instance I know of for sure where Steve performed Ernie in season 25. According to the Muppet...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Spoofs DVD Set

    I noticed that both discs have 19 segments each (not counting bonus clips). I would have expected the disc running time to be more important than the number of clips. And maybe it is a coincidence that the main program has the same amount of clips per disc, but it's still a little odd (as the...

    Kermit Unpigged Discussion

    Well, Bert might think to do so as well.... I haven't listened to this album in years. I'll have to see if I can find my copy and give it a listen. It was a great album. If BMG Kidz promoted it's Jim Henson Records releases better I wonder how well this (and the other releases) would have...

    Monsterpiece Theater timeline speculation

    Looks like I was wrong on something. I previously said that The 39 Stairs debuted in season 19, citing Hulu, but then at Muppet Wiki I saw it listed among the skits in episode 2342, a season 18 episode, and searched the Hulu page, which does list it as coming from season 18. I'd read that the...

    Sesame Street Classic Episodes Vol. 1 now available for download on iTunes and Amazon

    There's a free behind-the-scenes thing for those who download the whole thing, which makes me debate on whether to download it all or just a few episodes at a time. Two of the episodes are on the Old School DVDs (and the first episode is on the bonus disc included with 40 Years of Life on the...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Spoofs DVD Set

    I don't think Alphabet Chat is a spoof of anything. Besides, a number of recurring spoof segments (Mysterious Theater, Miami Mice, Trash Gordon, the original Spacehip Surprise) were left out as well. A number of Alphabet Chat segments (for the letters B, H, and O) can be viewed at...

    Classic episodes on iTunes

    A number of classic episodes from seasons 1, 10, and 20 are available on iTunes now. I think they're under a heading called "Sesame Street Classics: Volume 1". I haven't downloaded any yet (I have quite a few things to do today), but browsing through it includes Telly's debut appearance, a...

    Craziest/Largest Sesame Figure Collection Ever

    Very impressive. I wonder what those blue and yellow toys on the second shelf are (prototypes, perhaps?).

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    I agree, though I sort of hope it's another Peter Lintz character (I have a feeling he'll also be one of the Moopets, but until we see an official cast listing or hear the voices we'll never know).

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    Somebody pointed out that it looks like Jason Segal is performing Dr. Teeth in the car scene, in additon to appearing on-camera. And I started thinking about this. None of Bill Barretta's other characters are in the car (no Rowlf, no Swedish Chef, and of course no Pepe, unless he's on the floor...

    Monsterpiece Theater timeline speculation

    I was just watching this opening again, and spotted a book with "12 Angry Men" written on the spine. Sesame StreetUnpaved has a section on Monsterpiece Theater, including a "Monsterpiece Theater Program Guide". Most of the titles listed are actual MT segments, but there are two segments listed...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Spoofs DVD Set

    I was just watching the credits again, and noticed that despite how very little Elmo this has, the credits still say "And Kevin Clash as Elmo". I was thinking that all of the Monsterpiece Theater segments were shown with whatever openings the segments originally had, but I read in the 40th...
