It's a shame that the Iron Monster DVD doesn't have any (though it doesn't include any inserts, aside from a bonus Bert and Ernie's Great Adventures: Superheroes).
With this set, it looks like Beat the Time will be the first recurring segment to have every installment on DVD (unless there's some we don't know about). YAY! Not even Elmo's World has every segment available (there's two yet-to-be-released EW segments left).
The three Monsterpiece Theater...
Judging by how the clip run times are messed up, I assume the time for each clip is the time from the previous clip. I noticed that Colambo and Spaceship Surprise are listed without any indication of which speciffic sketches are included. But going by this jump ahead in clip times, it looks like...
Looking at the list on the Barnes and Noble website, it seems there's some error with the running time on each skit. The first clip, Dragnet, is listed with a :24 second runtime (I'm pretty sure it's longer than that, unless I'm thinking of the wrong clip). Hey Food is listed as over 7 minutes...
Long ago, sample pages for the Sesame Street 40th anniversary book were posted online, and by the time the book was released a number of changes had occurred. One thing that appeared in the sample pages but not the final released version was a section on Jim Henson's last day on the Sesame...
Actually, Kermit Love retired, and died in 2007 or 2008, several years after Willy's last appearance (I don't know when Willy's last season was). I don't know when Chet O'Brien died, but I would assume it was after Mr. MacIntosh was no longer on the show.
And Gordon is still on the show. Tough...
Some people here have mentioned fans saying that Kermit, Bugs, and Mickey shoudl have died with their performers. But unlike Kermit or Bugs, Mickey was recast while Walt was still alive (and Wayne Alwine took over while James MacDonald was still alive).
Maybe it's a mistake, though I don't think that clip was recently added. I checked the recently added box, and it's not recent enough to be found there.
For some reason I thought Pepe was already spotlighted. Heck, the last few WMW profiles were on characters I thought were already featured. But at least there are a number of main characters I know haven't been featured yet (Kermit, Animal, Swedish Chef, three of the five main Fraggles, the...
No, as far as I know, it is only cover artists (and I've only heard of a small number of them).
One thing that would have been cool would be if this album included a track from The Moopets. Though maybe it'd make sense after the new movie came out, when more people would be aware of those...
I saw one interview where Amy saud she even performed characters in scenes she appeared in. I assumed she meant she performed characters in shots where she didn't appear on screen. It didn't occure to me that they'd actually perform while appearing on-screen. Though I doubt Jason Segel performed...
Muppet Central did review the 20th anniversary special (or does that not count because it was released by Lionsgate?). MC should have reviewed C is for Cookie Monster and Silly Storytime (I reviewed Silly Storytime for The Muppet Mindset).
I wonder how some of the songs that weren't written for the Muppets were chosen. Mahna Mahna makes sense, but I feel Wishing Song and Mr. Bassman are a bit odd choices for some reason. Why not Turn the World Around or Rockin' Robin or We Got Us?
I have noticed that all of the Muppet Show songs...
This was announced two years ago at the same event that a certain long-awaited four-DVD set was announced. Hopefully you-know-what will get an announced release date soon...
I used to think that George the Janitor was originated by either Jim Henson or Richard Hunt, due to him sounding different in The Muppet Christmas Carol and me knowing that Henson and Hunt were gone by then. And I was confused, because I figured Jim Henson performed Wally, and the Muppet Hits...
This seems to be the first time Wayne and Bobby Benson appeared together on-screen at the same time. They seem to have been made from the same whatnot, and I don't think there were multiple whatnot patterns used (unlike anything muppets). I guess Wayne at least is his own permaneant puppet here...
I wonder if it'd be a good idea for any of us to start a checklist of our predictions, bring it to the theater, and then check off all correct predictions when we're proven correct.
