    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    I just saw at Muppet Wiki that there'll be a DVD called "C Is For Cookie Monster", presumably scheduled after Counting with Elmo (I didn't pay attention to the release date, and Muppet Wiki is causing some loading problems for me right now so I don't feel like rechecking). Known segments...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppet Show Comic Book

    Tough Pigs posted a new interview with Roger Langridge. http://www.toughpigs.com/langridge-qa-8/ He gives a bit of explanation regarding the mention of Skeeter's name, reveals details of the next three issues, and reveals some details about the next two storyarcs ("The Four Seasons" and a...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    It may sound like a longshot and might not be much in terms of classic content, but considering that, I wonder if Warner might want to put out DVDs with all the Batman and Superman appearances on Sesame Street. Of course I'm pretty sure there's only one Batman appearance left unreleased, and I...

    Old School DVD set ideas

    I was thinking of an idea, a two-disc set of early material (let's just say the first 20 seasons) that hasn't been released commercially yet. I'd call it "Sesame Street's Unreleased Classics". Disc 1 would focus on the real essential segments that haven't been released commercially, but...

    The Muppets and YouTube.com

    I don't know if this is the right thread to make requests (I feel like I have expressed my desire to see some things on youtube in one thread... might have been this one but I don't feel like searching through several posts), but I'd like to see the altered Jim Henson Hour opening from when...

    Sesame Street Sketch Database

    Actually John-John has counted to 20 with both characters (and both clips are up at sesamestreet.org... I think the one with Grover is just listed as "Grover and John-John Count", and I think the exact same title is also used for the counting backwards segment).

    Possible future Lionsgate Henson DVD releases

    I was surprised to see that Henson owns Billy Bunny's Animal Songs (unless the person in charge of selecting clips to post online messed up). I figured since it was part of the Muppet Sing-Along series Disney would have gotten the rights (I guess this would be the only Muppet Sing-Along still...

    E-mail for Muppet Show DVD seasons 4 & 5

    And they can release new and improved editions of the Muppet movies on DVD. And a boxed set of Muppet specials (maybe a "Tales from Muppetland" set).

    More Looney Tunes DVDs coming to DVD in April

    I got the discs today. I didn't think the widescreen took away anything important from the cartoons. It's sort of a shame the Bugs Bunny DVD only has one "Bugs and Daffy" cartoon while the Daffy Duck one has four; I feel like two of those "Bugs and Daffy" cartoons on the Daffy DVD (This is a...

    More Looney Tunes DVDs coming to DVD in April

    Well, they were released today. I haven't found any copies (but then again I only looked for them at two stores), but at the Golden Age Cartoons forum it was said that the post-1953 cartoons are in widescreen even though they were originally released in full frame in theaters (some fans complain...

    Muppet Snow White

    I would think that Disney owns the MuppeTelevision characters (I've read that Disney owns the Muppet portions of The Jim Henson Hour). Reading the discussions at tough pigs, some fans speculate that Boom! just doesn't have the license to use them. If that's true it seems Boom! is allowed to use...

    Muppet Snow White

    Well, I just read at the Tough Pigs forum that the writer had wanted Beard to be the new seventh dwarf, but was told that they didn't have the rights to use The Jim Henson Hour characters. But I'm sure I saw Beard on the two-page spread at the beginning of issue #3 (unless that's supposed to be...

    The "hand-me-down" performers

    I thought I'd start a thread to discuss performers who seem to essentially be "hand me down" performers, who seem to have taken over more characters than they had originated. The two most obvious are Eric Jacobson and Matt Vogel, as they are sort of understudies. Eric Jacobson performs most...

    A Guide to Errors in Sesame Street: A Celebration - 40 Years of Life on the Street

    Not too sure if this counts as an error, but on page 130 it says that (paraphrasing) "By the mid-1980s the producers had to address an issue that became more pressing each year: The need to find talent to sub for Jim Henson and Frank Oz in their respective roles as Ernie, Bert, Cookie Monster...

    Dreams about Muppets

    I had this dream last night. I think I was at some kind of official Sesame Street event, though I only saw Caroll Spinney there. I saw him and asked him how he could see what he was doing when performing Bruno. Caroll gave out an annoyed sigh (not sure if it was because of the question or if he...

    Super Grover 2.0

    I wonder if all these new short-form series will be in every episode. Count TV probably will (it's been said that 26 episodes were produced). Though do we really need multiple Count TV segments for numbers past 20 in the same season? I wonder if Elmo's World will continue, with this...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    I thought somebody mentioned it on this forum, saying both Sony Wonder and Shout were being discontinued. Or maybe I misread what I read. Or maybe it was a game of "telephone". I can't remember what thread I thought I saw it in. If Warner Home Video currently isn't interested in releasing...
