    Sesame Street Oatmeal FAIL

    Not including Bert on Sesame Street oatmeal is unacceptable! The only thing that'd be worse would be if they marketed official "Invisible Ice Cream Cones" and put Murray on the packaging, or if they marketed "Sesame Street Pepperoni and Sardine Milkshakes" but included Elmo on the packaging...

    The Muppet Mindset

    Nitpick Time! The Johnny Fiama article says that he was in all post-Muppets Tonight movies except Letters to Santa... Letters to Santa is a special, not a movie (and Johnny wasn't in Kermit's Swamp Years).

    Muppet Peter Pan

    I haven't seen the comics, but I agree. It's puzzling that there were only a few lost boys, and there should have been more monsters as the pirates.

    Should the show go 3-d just for one time only on TV ?

    When I first read the title, I thought it was asking about 3D as in Muppet Vision 3D or the Sesame Street 3D film, and I started thinking... The opening sequence from the Baker films would look cool in 3D.

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street 40 Years DVD Box Set

    I don't know how to say this, but when my first viewing of this DVD was also the first time I felt a bit choked up during the explanation of Mr. Hooper's death. For thge longest time my only exposure to the scene was the 20th anniversary special (which didn't include any Mr. Hooper clips), and...

    Richard Hunt's First SST Sketch

    Considering he started out for the most part doing background characters, right hands, and the back end of Mr. Snuffleupagus, we may never know.

    The RHLC!

    I just checked out The Works from the library, and noticed that while it says he "joined the company" in 1972 in the timeline section, the section that talks about him joining says that he joined Sesame Street in 1970.

    The Muppet Mindset

    Based on your two hints about the interview - that the performer was in the "Bohemian Rhapsody" video and in that shot in Muppets From Space, I'll deduct that it's either Steve Whitmire, Bill Baretta, or Dave Goelz. I don't think there's a full official list of performers from the video...

    Has anyone ever written to Sesame Workshop?

    Then again, they still haven't given Murray much interraction with the other familiar characters...

    Muppet Snow White

    Either of those characters would work great as the woodsman. Or Sweetums could make a good woodsman. Or Beauregard. Hmm... At least in the Disney version, the woodmsan substitutes Snow White's heart with the heart of a pig... I wonder if any jokes regarding this will be put in the...

    Muppet Snow White

    Unless, of course, he end sup appearing in Muppet King Arthur or any of the Muppet Show Comic Book issues that come before Snow White. Last summer I had started wondering how the casting would be doen for something like Snow White, which features both a female lead and a female villian. Miss...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street 40 Years Hardcover Book

    I find it interesting that the section on Brian Meehl includes a picture of him performing the right hand of Deena Monster, considering he performed her partner Pearl. Then again, I guess it's possible that Frank Oz might have performed Ernie's right arm, or Richard Hunt could have performed...

    The RHLC!

    After talking earlier about what I've read about Richard being more of a background performer for quite some time, it seems like many other performers became major sooner than Richard apparantly did. I know that Michael Earl and Brian Meehl both joined halfway through season 10, and both had...

    Bring Your Own Can Night

    I thought I'd start a thread about this sketch, listed as "Bring Your Own Can Night" on the 40th anniversary DVD, but otherwise doesn't appear to have anything to do with the title. The plot involves Oscar and Bruno going to a place called the "Cha Cha Palace". At the beginning the voices...

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    Sesame Workshop has added quite a few clips that I haven't found at sesamestreet.org, including: This Frog Bayou Alphabet (I think it's listed as "Alphabet at the Swamp" or something like that) James Earl Jones recites the alphabet

    Should Ernie interact with Abby?

    After reading this thread, it hit me: Outside of "The King's Nose", it seems that he hardly even interracted with The Amazing Mumford. He seems like somebody who would enjoy volunteering at a magic show, much like Grover did. But I think it would be better if Abby interracted with Bert...

    The Muppet Mindset

    I liked the interview. Pam Arciero doesn't get interviewed very often... I wonder if this might have been a first (two firsts in one?). It was said in the 40th anniversary book that on her first day on the set, they had her perform a female assistant for David, though she didn't say the...

    Super Mario Bros. Games/Shows/Toys

    Super Mario Bros. is a franchise with many possibilities for accessories and pack-in figures. Playsets might be unrealistic, and I wonder how possible it would be to have for accessories those floating platforms and blocks and such. If I was in charge of such a collection, I'd have each series...

    Super Mario Bros. Games/Shows/Toys

    It's a shame that many of the SMB 2 enemies haven't been brought back for future games. That game had so many great bosses. But then again, I wonder if they'd work well in the regular format of Mario games. That game had picking-up objects be a common feature, but it's not as common in other...
