I just noticed that Zoe appears on the back of the box, even though she wasn't around yet. The back also includes an image of Super Grover, even thoguh Super Grover does not appear at all in this.
One thing that's interestign about the end: In one of the front rows of characters in that final shot, we see, clockwise, Ruby, Prairie Dawn, Ernie, Kermit, Bert, and Grover. I would think Frank Oz performed both Bert and Grover in that shot, and Jim Henson performed Ernie and Kermit. But...
Even though I downloaded it on iTunes, I finally found and bought a copy of the DVD today.
I always expected Ace You to have the same voice as Elliot Shag, since they were both performed by Kevin Clash. Was surprised to hear him sound like Clifford.
You know, last december I wrote an article about my 2010 Muppet Christmas List, and one of the things I asked for was for Disney to allow scenes with Kermit to be allowed for DVD releases of Henson-owned productions. And it looks like I have gotten my wish: Sesame Street: 20 and Still Counting...
It's intersting, this special was removed from YouTube, and I've read that the "Goodbye, Mr. Hooper" clip was removed, but it seems other clips that appear in this special are on YouTube. Thankfully none of the clips uploaded by Sesame Workshop have been removed (Rubber Duckie, King of 8, Spring...
I got the DVD and I'm watching it right now. It's strange that they apparently had to edit out commercial breaks (I would have thought the master tapes wouldn't have them... Then again, if all they had was broadcast copies, maybe that's why the credits were ommitted, to avoid the announcer who...
I've noticed that the "Goodbye, Mr. Hooper" episode seems to be remasted for the site. The picture looks a bit bright... Big Bird and Forgetful Jones' nose look like they are glowing (the "Just Because" clip as shown on the 40th anniversary DVD isn't as bright).
While it's great that we...
Me, too! My copy is missing the ending. Hardly any of it is on YouTube (just one clip montage and a few bloopers). Anybody know whether this is owned by Sesame Workshop or some other company (the best way tod etermien would be by watching the credits)?
I don't quite understand what you mean by that "adult situations" line. And the performer who played Lindbergh was named Gordon Robertson. And I thought Lindbergh was the dumb character.
I don't remember seeing Droop in the special. Where was he? But there is one character you left out: A...
I thought I'd start a thread about the recurring segment Alphabet Chat, hosted by Mr. Chatterly. It seems like only a handful of segments were made; known segments involve the letters O, R, L, B, and H. Like Alistair Cookie, Mr. Chatterly is one of the few Sesame Street Muppets to smoke a pipe...
I've celebrated by watching many of his characters clips on sesamestreet.org. I've tried to watch at least one clip with each of his recurring characters (and I just realised that I haven't watched the one Sam the Robot clip that's on the site yet). But I've watched clips with The Count...
If the problem with including a lot of Big Bird is writing for him, then I wonder if Caroll Spinney could get promoted to writer. He's had experience, as he had written his Rascal Rabbit series (though he ran out of ideas after a few episodes) and wrote the story for Big Bird in China (though he...
I've been thinking about the segment where Snuffy says the alphabet with Joey http://www.sesamestreet.org/video_player/-/pgpv/videoplayer/0/a61e008e-154a-11dd-8ea8-a3d2ac25b65b/snuffy_and_joey_alphabet
Anyway, this segment is a bit interesting, if you compare it to the more well-known...
Speaking of that, could that be the case for most Henson movies? As far as box office performance goes, The Dark Crystal has the second highest-grossing box office success of any Henson movie, after The Muppet Movie. Since TDC was consdiered a flop, does that mean that all Muppet movies besides...
Yes there are. The linking plot has Elmo helping Professor Grover teach kids the alphabet at a pre-school, where they look for objects that start each letter of the alphabet (and at one point Grover thinks that a long word is a letter... I think the word is something like "wozacamunga"... I wish...
Quite a few clips concerning Mr. Hooper have been added to sesamestreet.org, including the one where the adults explain his death http://www.sesamestreet.org/video_player/-/pgpv/videoplayer/0/1b8d7e6b-fa89-4831-8eee-c4069a71d229/goodbye_mr_hooper
It's interesting, just recently I wondered if...
Sometimes I wonder if for variety shows if the writers have some kidn of udnerstanding not to take too much credit for each individual segment they write. The credits just list all writers without saying who wrote what sketch (I wonder if that would complicate the credits? Especially considering...
Just about every time I see that this thread has a new post I wonder if it's an announcement for the release (I'm sure others do as well... This post might have gotten people expecting an announcement). Considering this, I think that when an official release date is announced that somebody...
Joey Mazzarino may be the current head writer, but I doubt he's the only writer. Couldn't a different writer write some Big Bird scripts instead?
It's probably too late for next season, but I think that they should give either Big Bird or Oscar their own recurring segment in season 42.
