Oh, yeah. I remember seeing "The Great Cookie Robbery" on Daily Motion with the original opening. I sort of thought that was a mistake, because I was thinking the new opening started in the second season, but I guess that was how it originally aired. I do find it a bit strange that they would...
You're probably right about that. I'm a bit surprised about the one where he tried to eat Guy Smiley, because I believe that sketch was made long after CM's personality was established. (I'm guessing late 70s.) You can expect him to try to devour another character in a first season episode...
Wow! I never knew that. I thought I remembered seeing the later episodes with the shortened opening theme. I guess I'm thinking of seasons 5 and 6 and syndicated eps. Did they redub the voices for Animal, Bunsen and Skeeter in the new opening? That was around the time Dave Coulier and Frank...
Hmmmm. I've thought a lot about that. I actually asked about the different openings before and no one answers. I'd say that particular opening started in the second season, since that was the year they made that episode with the footage from Ghostbusters. (Beaker blasting Slimer)
The...
Gosh, a better question would be 'What HASN'T he eaten?'
I'll have to check out that Wiki article.
But it does seem like he'll eat anything. I am a bit surprised though that a few times he even tried to devour other characters (ex: Kermit, Guy Smiley.) Most things he eats are inanimate.
I agree. No offense, Mike. But every time we discuss something like this you always say that. With people like Carroll or Bob McGrath or Loretta Long phasing out of the show, (being in just a few episodes per season) it's getting close to the time. We have a right to state our opinions...
I believe you mean 'Gina.' She adopted baby Marco from Guatemala last season. Anyway, I don't think she was the same actress who played the lady pirate. I know 'Allison Bartlett-O-Reily' plays Gina. The name of the actress who played the pirate escapes me.
Alright, now for my thought on 'Sleeping Grouchy.'
Count, now I see what you mean about why they should have aired the segment about Maria and Luis at the museum It did seem to fit in with the episodes theme. When I first read that, I sort of thought you were talking about a different...
I'm a bit confused, are you saying episodes without EW are 'new to the show.' That's possible. After all, Abby was new last year and she only appeared in three episodes. This season she appeared in every episode. That could be the case with Elmo's World-less episodes. There might be more of...
Yeah. I kind of expected that, but I was thinking he wouldn't figure it out until the end of his scene. Similar to the 'letter of the day' segments... Anyway, it's just a thought I had. Nothing to really speculate on.
Well, I didn't hear the voice, but it's possible. Even though a...
I sort of liked that the street story continued through the show. I wouldn't consider this a mulitiple part story like the 'word dog' story or the 'fairy tale emergency' story. If that was the case, we wouldn't have seen "Elmo's World." I'd say this is more or less like season 34 with the...
I agree. I was watching Elmo Saves Christmas on YouTube and noticed Bob was pretty active there. Too bad we don't have more of him in new material.
Yeah. After Frank's retirement I think he gave Cookie Monster to Eric. Then the writers gave him to David to allow more interaction between...
I see. Thanks for that info.
I'd still like to know about when 'wocka wocka' originated. I haven't really heard it outside of the movies and on 'Muppet Babies.'
Oh, I get it. Kermit didn't want to accept any imitations. He'd rather see the real thing. I kind of agree with what SgtGonzo said though, after all Kermit's nervous breakdown after the Peter Sellers ep was mentioned at the episode guides as well.
Okay, here's a new one. Did Fozzie's...
So Abby appeared twice on the show? That kind of worries me, because this is sort of how all this Elmo-mania got started. They put a character in just a bit at a time, then more often until they start to overdo it.
I've been super-busy today so I only got to watch up to the part with Elmo's...
Yeah. I've noticed there have been a few eps in the last season where Bean didn't appear. I guess either those were produced before he was written into the show or that he was just one of those characters who just popped up on occassion like Bunsen and Beaker.
The longer opening was...
