    Some observations on Episode 2096

    I have read that Uncle Wally (who was introduced one year previously) had always believed in Mr. Snuffleupagus, as he made the claim that he had met Snuffleupaguses in the past. Of course given the fact that he hesitated to go through the doors that last time along with the others plus his...

    Some observations on Episode 2096

    Watching this episode, it seems like Bob doesn't believe in Snuffy more than any of the others who don't believe in him. And there's something about his disbelief here that has a sinister quality to it. Maybe it's just me, but in this episode Bob seems like the kind of person who would find out...

    Muppet Snow White

    I read at the tough pigs forum that the third issue of Muppet Snow White came out today, but previews didn't make it online yet. Anybody see the latest issue?

    Are these real SST Muppets?

    The one dressed as "Bride of Frankenstien" looks like it could be Prairie Dawn (or Betty Lou) in a wig. Don't know about the other one.

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    I found an interesting 1970s commercial for a SST album, which includes the characters in animated form. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXwOd08RQck

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street 20 and Still Counting DVD

    I noticed that in the "keeping it current" montage that the first few clips have scene transitions between them, but by the end of the montage the clips just cut to each other. Almost as if they chose halfway through to stop with the transitions (though the final clip does transition to the next...

    Rumor: Big Bird only in four Season 41 episodes

    I (think I) know you're joking on that, but I'm sure it's not. That episode came from the early 1970s, and Barney was introduced in the late-1980s. I assume that Bad Barney was an Anything Muppet. But unfortunately, that episode page was sourced from a CTW Archives program guide, not an...

    That has been mentioned a few times. It was mentioned in the review.

    Rumor: Big Bird only in four Season 41 episodes

    And Alan apparently gave away flashlights during the hurricane instead of charging for them! Actually Hooper's has charged money before. In the test pilots and the first episode characters put money into a can at Hooper's Store after purchasing newspapers from the store. I think David...

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

    I spotted two errors on page 97. First, it says that Snuffy was originally envisioned as Big Bird's invisible friend. But he was never invisible - he was thought by the adults to be imaginary (which he also was not). I see imaginary and invisible as two different things. And also, it...

    Sesame Street at Night

    I wonder if that might have been the same Muppet replica ftom Sex and Violence (hey, the Gene Shalit Muppet does look a little like the lavendar live-hand Anything Muppet). .

    Oops... Watching again, her name was Akeem, not Adrianne. What a stupid mistake on my part.

    Some observations on Episode 2096

    Just thought I'd point out that the street stories have been uploaded at sesamestreet.org - http://www.sesamestreet.org/video_player/-/pgpv/videoplayer/0/5787c18d-3aa3-4fd9-918e-83a32dac3b5e/snuffy_becomes_real I've noticed quite a few similarities between Phil Donahue's scene here and his...

    Classic Clips on SST Workshop's Site

    The episode where the adults see Snuffy for the first time is now at sesamestreet.org, though there's no title or description there yet. I searched "snuffleupagus" and didn't see it in search results. Which means I don't know how to link to it. Right now the only way I know to see it is to click...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street 20 and Still Counting DVD

    I wonder how many people purchasing this will be confused by the bit of music that starts just after "What a Bird!" ends. In the original broadcast after the montage it fades to black and the title is shown right before the commercial, with the music playing. I sort of wish they'd left that...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppet Show Comic Book

    I got my copy of issue #7 yesterday, and it is good. I've read some things about how it ends, but even then I really wasn't expecting what did happen. I was expecting it to end with a scene with the celestial Statler and Waldorf ending their game (and all we get of the game's ending is a view of...

    Is Rowlf public domain?

    Another thing: The packaging for Dog City probably should have had a copyright credit for Rowlf. The Muppets are probably as assiciated with Henson as Kermit is associated with Sesame Street. I'm sure there are still many fans who don't know that Henson no longer owns the Muppets.
