I watched the clip of Elmo giving Cookie Monster a dollar to buy cookies, and does anybody feel Cookie Mosnter's crying came off as fake? To me, when he cried in the original "Up and Down" segment, that sounded real, but here it sounds fake, as if he's trying to scam Elmo out of his money...

Well, one difference is that Murray was around for a few years before Ovejita was introduced. I'd say she's the next Bruno.

For "The Best of Sesame Spoofs", here's what I think the contents list should be and how it should be broken down: Disc 1: Classics (I'll include a lot of 1990s stuff here, because sesamestreet.org seems to list the classics tag to clips from up to season 24 and because it seems the first...

The fact that they're making shirt of The Count saying "Blah" is interesting. Are they having The Count rip-off Count Blah from Greg the Bunny?

I wonder why the saturday morning series would have put an end to the specials. As far as I know, Garfield and Friends never had any Garfield episodes lasting a full half hour, so an entire half-hour story is one thing that a special would have done to be different from the series (though during...

Looking at the Warner Store page, I noticed it said the running time will be 48 minutes. I suspect that's a mistake; If it's only 48 minutes then why make it a two-disc set? Though the main page at the studio store website lists it as "Vols. 1 and 2" but also calls it a two-disc set in the...

Well, Weird Al Yankovic's next album, Alpocolypse, is coming out on June 21 of this year. Here's a video promoting it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0YJpwKwinE&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL

Today I was fantasizing about a "Sesame Street Spoofs" DVD. I guess they had a way of reading my fantasy mind! Muppet Wiki says that it'll have Miami Mice. I wonder which one it'll be (I'm hoping the one with The Count since that one's so rare in english, yet I'm also hoping for the Kermit...

I have a question about The Muppets: A Celebration of 30 Years. I've actually been wondering this for the past few years, and I hope that I ask it in a way that makes sense. But throughout that special, there are wide shots of the various Muppets at tables, and close-up shots of certain...

Here's a cool entry that was posted today: http://www.henson.com/jimsredbook/2011/04/19/4191980/ It discusses an unproduced project that I never even heard of, "The Varied Adventures of Mischevious Miles", which was to be a collaboration between Jim Henson, Jon Stone, and Maurice Sendak...

I just read that the 2012 Muppet calendar will be a movie parodies calendar, with existing parody images. With the calendar likely coming near the movies release date, wouldn't it be a better tie-in to theme it around the movie, wth images (either stills or publicity) from the movie? Or even...

That was a good interview. I noticed there was acknowledgement of us who asked questions here though I don't remember hearing any of our questions being asked. That question about whether they thought about having Waldo interract with guest stars is interesting. I never noticed before that...

It's "Don't Waste It Day" with Telly.

I think some people said they expect this upcoming film to represent how the Muppets "really" act when not in a movie or series. If that's true, then I wonder if Statler and Waldorf will be portrayed in the film as actors who are part of the Muppets, as opposed to audience members who usually...

Today's entry is on a "Today Show" interview regarding the pipes Henson and his crew decorated and the Muppet Stuff stores. http://www.henson.com/jimsredbook/2011/04/17/4171980/

The 40th anniversary book says that the fishing sketch was the first time Whitmire performed Ernie (though the book also describes the wrong fishing sketch). But it came out the same season as the new years special, so who knows which was actually broadcast first? Of course, in the Muppet...

I've been wondering, if this new movie is a big enough hit, I wonder if Disney will have Segal and Stoller work on more Muppet movies (or if those two would be interested in doing more Muppet movies, despite being fans). Heck, if we get another movie within the next few years I wonder if they'll...

Lately I've been a bit curious about the Play-Along Video entitled "Peek-a-Boo". I rented it once a long time ago and hadn't remembered too much about it. I remembered it having only a small amount of Muppets and not being too good. And, not counting Fraggle Rock (or certain Sesame Street...

I was just reading the description on the back of the "Elmo's Rainbow" packaging, and noticed what the first sentence says: "What's at the bottom of Elmo's rainbow? A DVD filled with all your favorite Sesame friends." Really? If it's filled with all my favorite Sesame Street friends then why...

Here's an idea (and maybe I've been reading too much Muppet Mindset... Nah, you can never read too much of that...): "The Revenge of Angus McGonacle": Angus is once again scheduled for a guest spot only to once again be cancled or replaced, and this time he plans revenge on the Muppets, with the...
