I read that in this comic Rowlf plays Merlin, a role he played a few times on the short-lived Jim Henson Hour. Do you happen to know whether the person who made that casting decision (I assume it was the writer) was aware of this or if the casting was just a coincidence?

Well, a lot of classic clips have been added today. Including this insert with Kermit and John-John: http://www.sesamestreet.org/video_player/-/pgpv/videoplayer/0/10897c8f-2b4e-4493-9f3a-7dee87e6db1e/kermit_and_john_john_sounds

I've been thinking, wouldn't it be cool if one of the comics featured a performance by Beaker, The Swedish Chef, and Animal? I'm not too big on the idea of that team-up being used so much in the virmup videos (Steve Whitmire himself said he thought it was overkill in his MuppetCast interview)...

Well I found a copy of the first "On the Road" issue. It's very good, and the Fozzie comic a tthe end is funny. I noticed that the Mutations are miscolored. Also interesting that Boppity and Gloat are drawn approximately the same height as Sweetums in the opening (and I wish they'd put in more...

It is now Letter V Day with Elmo.

Probably because they had behind-the-scenes footage to go along with it.

I wonder how much of the first season of Tiny Toons has been released on the two sets... I think Tiny Toons is one of the few animation properties that WB has released in a set of more than two discs. The majority of Warner Home Video releases I have on DVD are the Looney Tunes Golden...

Did we know that this clip was on the site: http://www.sesamestreet.org/video_player/-/pgpv/videoplayer/0/ad640a13-5516-4e13-b55d-f4be3d3d4445/luis_and_maria_love_each_other This clip shows Luis and Maria deciding to get married, after Big Bird prompts them to. It would be interesting to...

Tough Pigs has a preview of the first few pages... As I was reading my opinions chanegd from "maybe I'll skip this one..." to "this is really funny!" There's quite a few sight gags (like Sam talking about stimulating the economy, with an accompanying note that says "Stimulate the economy by...

Tough Pigs now has previews for issue 2, as well as the first issue of Muppet King Arthur. Hmmm... Anybody know if the Peg-Leg Wilson trade paperback has been released in the US yet? I don't think comic book resources showed a preview, and I still haven't found it in stores (I found copies...

I thought maybe they were trying to save disc time/space. I usually enjoy watching the opening and closing theme on TV shows.

You know, while Warner does own the rights to the characters from those properties, Warner doesn't own the Sesame Street characters or program, only video distribution and the rights to make Sesame Street video games.

After thinking about the recently-announced springtime video only having one classic clip, a thought occurred to me. There really aren't many sketches about spring. The Cookie Bunny is close enough, as the Cookie Bunny is an obvious parody of the easter bunny, and easter comes in spring. All...

The Muppet Show 1-3 Fraggle Rock 1 (and animated series) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1 Three's Company 1-2 Greg the Bunny The Simpsons 1-12 SCTV 4 (I have the first three volumes, which total the whole fourth season in order) Rocky and Bullwinkle 1-3 Super Mario Bros. 3...

I pushed the "play all" button only so far (I didn't watch all of disc 1 yet), and I've gone through two and a half half-hours so far. The first episode on the set is a full half-hour episode.

I bought the set today, and one thing that I didn't know... Maybe I read it and forgot/missed it... But it's like the early single-disc Fraggle Rock sets... The opening and closing only appear once on the discs? Complete sets should have their openings and closings pone very episode.

I wouldn't overreact just yet. I think this is only the second announced DVD from Warner Home Video, and it doesn't seem too different from what Sony and Genius have been doing. I mean, aside from the Old School and 40th anniversary DVDs, classic material on new DVDs has been semi-scarce (we...

Good interview, though I wish there would have been a bit of discussion on his days on The Muppet Show (and especially his character Lips), Fraggle Rock, The Jim Henson Hour, and other productions. I enjoyed hearing him talk about the more recent productions and the recasting of characters, but...

All-in-all, that was a great interview. As I read it I was wodnering if you'd ask about Seymour (I guess you need to find a way to interview Brian Henson and ask him why he was dropped) and what it was like for Bill to take over as some of Jim's characters.

Today is "Make a Shape Day" with Grover.
