Bear arrives on Disney+ The beloved series has been off the air for the past 15 years. Now all four seasons are finally available for a whole new generation.
There are a few things I noticed about this season when watching the set.
One, it seems that many of the introductions for the opening numbers this year are a bit long, often with interruptions Think about it - Miss Piggy comes out from behind the curtain to tell Kermit what her number with...
The Sesame Street News segment in which Kermit itnerviews Cinderella and Prince Charming at the ball is now up at sesamestreet.org. It's listed a sKermit News: Cinderella.
A few episodes of The MuppetCast ago, Steve Swanson covered a recent Henson event in Florida, where they screened Henson's number films. He mentioned that Henson made two series of number films, one for season one, and another for season two. However, I wouldn't call his second season number...
This does sound like a good diea. It'd be great if fans could nominate their favorite songs for it as well.
But theoretically, if it were a "Top 20" countdown, I'd choose these songs:
Rubber Duckie
A Song From Kermit
One Thing Leads to Another
Because We're Friends
Things That I...
That was funny. I doubt it was from the 1980s, as the Kermit puppet has very noticible felt texture, and a new material was used for the puppet starting with The Muppet Movie.
Man, I watched those clips, and they were great. It's a shame that they were hardly ever shown in the american portions (though Carter did make a cameo in Martin Short's closing number). it seems, however, like they were playing roles. I wonder if Howard would really be rich if he appeared...
In those scenes where it's so dark that you can only see the eyes of teh characters in the scene, does anybody know how it's done? Are there just black puppets matching the black background who are given eyes that match the characters? Is black cloth put over the character (excluding the eyes)?
Has anybody noticed similarities between Flash and King of the Hill's Boomhauer? Both characters talk in ways that are hard for the viewer to understand, yet the other on-screen characters cna understand them (though in the case of Flash, it seem slike only Clifford can understand him). Both...
I liked the special. It would have been great if it had more adult humor (and more characters), but it's okay. It's interesting how the Muppets were usually just hanging out in the apartment building hallway. Claire's apartment was the only one that we really saw the inside of.
And it feels...
I agree, with next year being the 55th anniversary (and hopefully celebrated officially by Disney) and assuming the new movie comes out as planned, I hope that there's a lot of cool Muppet merchandise, available at a wide variety of retailers (and not just the Disney parks or primarily available...
For those who were there, I have heard on an epsiode of The MuppetCast that they screened Jim Henson's number films from Sesame Street. Was the rare Henson #1 screened?
Roger Landgridge has said in interviews that he wants the comic to be like a lost episode of The Mupet Show, but that'd be hard without a guets star (and I've seen an interview where he says the first four issues won't have guest stars). It also would be hard without music numbers, and I doubt...
I didn't know Clash voiced Animal. I think Muppet Wiki says it was Rob Mills. But Animal's dialogue isn't that clear.
It would make sense for somebody else to perform Zoot sicne Goezl was performing Digit, but Clash was performing Clifford as well as Zoot. And the song audio is recorded...
Enjoy this fifth season episode outline.
Cold Open
Conrad Twitty arrives, and Pops informs him that he has to be tarred and feathered.
Introduction
Kermit introduces the show. Kermit is about to introduce Conrad Twitty, but gets called backstage, since Conrad Twitty has ben tarred and...
I have a feeling that this 40th anniversary set will contain some street stories. Here are some that I'd like to see included:
Episode 2, in which Oscar moves away from Sesame Street.
Big Bird wants to go to day care.
the season two Sesame Street Pet Show episode.
Luis and Rafael open the...
Okay... Finally... Here are my opinions on the remainign episodes, and the special features.
Roger Miller - five stars
Roger Miller worked so well with the Muppets. It's a shame he didn't do more with them. His numbers just keep getting better in the epsidoe. The Cluck-Itis runnign gag is...
I know that you checked on this back in 2005, but did you check again recently when The Christmas Toy was released? Because I wonder if Henson even bothered this time around to try to get permission to show Kermit's scenes.
When you mention the gues tappearances stipulations, are you...
