A funny thing about the opening of the Senor Wences episode is that the cold opening must have been redone. I hear that one was originally scheduled for season four when the opening would have been with Scooter in the dressing room. I realize I'm getting off topic, but I just thought I'd point...
I guess you're referring to Billy Joe Jive and Smart Susie Sunset. I remember those, but vaguely. Right now the sound doesn't work on my computer. I'll have to get that fixed so I can hear the dialog.
Actually, I always think of "Have You Ever Looked at a Paper Clip" as one of Henson's last performances as :p . Correct me if I'm wrong on this, but didn't that come out some time in the late 80s before Henson's passing?
Sorry to keep repeating posts, it's been a while since I looked through this thread and I keep thinking up new things to say.
Anyway, it's good that :) still shows up on SS occassionally, even if it is with copyright information in the credits. Though I would like to see him on the same...
Yeah. That one was on 'You Tube.' That was a real good one. It was kind of rare to see a Henson character in a street scene around that time. Still that was a very enjoyable sketch.
I never caught that in "The Street We Live On." I saw Herry in the Monster Parade but that was it. Are you sure you're not thinking of Telly? Just wondering.
Yeah. I remember that one. But actually that was Tony Danza. I don't know if he ever really played professional tennis or if that was just in that particular sketch.
Yeah. I've seen that one before. I really enjoyed that.
Some other things I'd like to see up there would be Mr. Rogers' appearance on SS or Big Bird's appearance on Mr. Rogers. Just a suggestion.
I agree. I remember him talking with kids back in the old days when he was on "Sesame Street" so it was good to see that again. I haven't watched the show enough to know what Ty's like so I can't do a comparison there. I did like when they sang "Rainbow Connection" and the appearance by Davy...
I've got one. This might have been mentioned before. I don't know. I don't have a lot of time to go back and read 31 pages. Lol.
Anyway, one that I was thinking of was in the Lola Fanala episode of TMS when Gonzo sings, "I Did it My Way."
I thought of that, because this weekend I was...
It was Leanord Jackson, but truthfully I don't know a lot about him. I haven't watched the show at the time. David Smyrl was the one I remember seeing on the show.
That's true, but one thing to keep in mind was that Mr. Hanford was played by two different actors. You're probably right about David L. Smryl choosing not to be on the show anymore. But I can't help but wonder why they didn't just recast the character again. I guess they just didn't want to...
Well, that might be a bit too much of a stretch since everything was so different back then. But I could see them starting from maybe season 30 or something like that. Heck, Mr. Rogers episodes that are still shown date all the way back to the 80s.
Well, there are quite a few differences though. I mean the actor Bob McGrath is married and has five sons at least. On the show, Bob was involved with Linda. That's about the biggest difference between the actor and the character.
Actually, that's alright because I'm sure a lot of viewers are getting tired of seeing season 34 and 36 episodes over and over again. Season 35 eps haven't been seen in about a year, so I really don't mind. Now if they'd only show season 33.
