Then they should have watched the Steve Harvey show last year where Fred Gabro who played him for a time made an appearance, then they would have seen that he's not that scary. :)

Yeah. If I recall, the original intention of Dave performing Cookie rather than Eric was to allow them to interact more, but during that time Frank was available to perform either, so those opportunities were kind of missed, but now that's getting more and more doable.

I wondered about that too. That was the first I heard it referenced on the show. Yeah. I was going to mention that as well, plus Carroll's BB and Oscar will probably be heard in inserts from earlier seasons.

Hey, is your name Daffyfan? Lol. JK. But I only saw on full ep that was on YT so far. Maybe just as well, with how busy I've been lately I only have time for the ten minute street scenes, plus I don't want to see to my spoilers before they air on PBS.

Oh, is Carroll still in the closing credits though? Right now I can only watch the eps online and they only include the street scenes. I think Muppet Wiki does still credit Carroll as BB and Oscar, so he might be heard in a scene or two this season. You never know.

I agree. Nice expansion on the plot where Bert is trying to sleep and Ernie keeps waking him up, very reminiscent of the days of Jim and Frank playing the characters. Now that was Matt who voiced Big Bird in this one? I thought it was Carroll just sounding different because of his dystonia. I...

Yeah. I noticed that too. He seems to have wised up there. Yeah. Steph really had a chance to shine as Prairie in this one.

I agree. When I first heard it, I thought it was Cookie Monster talking. It was also interesting that Abby's broken family was mentioned without having her directly mention her parents' divorce.

Well, I think that's the problem. That might have given his team too much of an unfair advantage.

Finally I get to comment on a season 48 episode since today's aired on both HBO and PBS. I'm guessing this was done because of the focus on Julia in this ep. (Same with last season's 'Meet Julia.') I thought the episode was really good. I enjoyed the Food Truck segment as well. Nice to see...

Okay. I think I get it.

It's a shame that's not real. I'd definitely want to vote for the season 16 premiere. :)

Is this an April Fool's joke or did he really say that? If he's not who we think he is, who is he? I'm confused. :confused:

Yeah. I kind of thought about that and probably should have come up with something more realistic, but it gets harder to come up with something new each year. Plus a lot of times when I think of something somebody already beats me to the next punch. Oh, well. I'll get you guys next year...

Strange that we didn't get any advanced notice on this, but I found this at Sesame Workshop's website: Airing tonight of PBS, A Sesame Street Easter. In this Easter special a question previously inquired to Big Bird by Oscar the Grouch is addressed. Big Bird, Elmo and Abby set out to...

Definitely a good idea though. Who knows what could happen two years from now? This could still be a possibility.

Yeah. We know his health has gone hill with his dystonia, but if he's well enough to do his farewell tour that's definitely a good sign. About the possibility about him passing in a few years, it's best not to think about that.

Yeah. It would be great to have him return to play his characters on occasion like he did for a time on SS, but let's not forget the great job Eric has been doing with his characters and Dave as Cookie Monster, we don't want them to be out of work. Though I could see him doing a Grover/Cookie...

Yeah. I guess SW didn't happen to have an 'indigo' monster lying around, although if I recall, Lulu did change colors a few times over the years.

Wow! I thought Mr. Hanford was there from the beginning of season 21 and I didn't know he was on the street before it was established that he took over Hooper's. I guess Muppet Wiki was missing some info. Still it would be nice to see more of Leonard Jackson as Mr. Hanford.
