    April Fools: Upcoming LionsGate Releases!

    That was funny. I didn't beleive it, but I just HAD to click on the youtube link to see what you provided.

    April Fools: I know who portrayed the original Gordon!

    I had thought about saying some more "controversial" things that I was "told", but thought it'd be going too far (let's just say what I planned would give the stuff Street Gang said about Northern Calloway a run for its money).

    New Video: "Stand By Me"

    I recall reading a desire from somebody somewhere (either a tough pigs thread/article or a muppet mindset article) who wanted the Muppets to make appearances like in the 1960s, where people didn't know what to expect from the Muppets... I guess this succeeded a bit.

    The Best of Elmo 2

    You know, the announcement of this kind of killed an april fools joke that I had planned. I planned on saying that I found that Warner Home Video was planning to release a collection of single-disc DVDs called the "Sesame Street Superstars" collection, consisting of five at a time. I was going...

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    I searched youtube and the only copy I could find was a copy taken from the DVD (which cuts out the behind-the-scenes photos shown over the first few seconds of the clip).

    April Fools: Exciting Unannounced Target Exclusives!

    This morning I went to Target and found two exclusive Sesame Street DVDs that hadn't even been announced (seems most Target exclusives don't get announced before the releases), and if you've been skeptical about Warner Home Video releasing DVDs of classic material... Well, your worries are over...

    New Video: "Stand By Me"

    I hated it. April fools! This was really funny. And it doesn't even have anybody that the average fan would know. I hope we get some more videos with monster characters... It'd be great to see something with Carl, Luncheon Counter Monster, Uncle Deadley, Gorgon Heap, and some of the...

    April Fools: I know who portrayed the original Gordon!

    Believe it or not, I just realised yesterday that I know the original Gordon from the test pilots! And after I realised it was him, I also learned some info on his background! Anyway, there was this new guy at my work, who's been there for a few weeks. I thought he looked familiar, but...

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    By the late-1980s (I believe) pretty much all Sesame Street News sketches were shown with the late-1980s opening logo on the show, regardless of whether that logo was originally used. Monsterpiece Theater also did this whenever a new opening was added (though I recall seeing a season 30 episode...

    The Best of Elmo 2

    I'd forgotten all about Mel Gibson having a controversey... I wonder if the general public has (I'm pretty sure that Sesame Workshop stopped showing all Mel Gibson segments long before the incident). But it does make me think, if not for Chris Brown's incident from a few years ago, I bet this...

    The Best of Elmo 2

    Seems most of the celebrity clips will be recent appearances... But Elmo has appeared in older sketches with Robin Williams, Jim Carrey, and Mel Gibson, all of whom have been consistiently popular since their Sesame Street appearances (and before). Of course I've noticed that none of their...

    Your Favorite SST Muppet Design Through the Years

    I noticed that in the first season of The Muppet Show there were a few different puppets... Seems like multiples were used even in the same episodes. But there's one particular Kermit puppet used a lot, at least early in the first season, I can't quite pinpoint it, but I don't think I've ever...

    Did Ernie ever interact with Rosita

    I can't remember 100 percent but I think Ernie and Rosita interracted in the Sesame Street Live show Elmo's Coloring Book. I saw it back in 1997 and I can't remember for sure, but I know that one's been revived quite a few times (could it be the most-revived Sesame Street Live show?). I'm...

    The Best of Elmo 2

    Well, I searched sesamestreet.org for most of the confirmed clips (I couldn't find the David Beckham clip... Guess it's not on the website yet) and I kept track of the time and added them up. Adding time is a bit hard, but if my calculations are correct, we know the contents for approximately 12...

    The Best of Elmo 2

    I was thinking, it's a bit ridiculous for this set to include Jason Mraz's "Outdoors" song... Couldn't they just release an outdoors-themed Sesame Street DVD and include that clip on that? It could include the street scenes where Big Bird considers moving into a new habitat, the nature survival...

    Classic Clips on SST Workshop's Site

    Here's a great clip in which Elmo talks about hands: http://www.sesamestreet.org/video_player/-/pgpv/videoplayer/0/796bee80-56bf-4fa7-93e1-c24784afe26d/poem_about_hands I have a feeling that this is one of Kevin Clash's earliest Elmo appearances. When I looked at the tags and saw that...

    Is the time right for a Best of Abby DVD?

    So that we don't get too off-topic I just started a seperate thread for The Best of Elmo 2: http://forum.muppetcentral.com/showthread.php?p=814778#post814778
