    Frank and Jim not good singers?

    And don't forget about the huge number of Miss Piggy songs: Let There Be Love Pig Calypaso Never Before, Never Again Never on Sunday I Won't Dance The list goes on and on.

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 36

    Yeah, poor Bert does look sad with that smiley face. Maybe Oscar could have been used for frowning. Anyway, I thought Jack Horner WAS in the previous episode where Shirley Jones played Mother Goose. I remember seeing him in the classroom. Though you're right that Miss Muffet wasn't in that ep.

    Abelardo and Paco from Plaza Sesamo

    Oh, I get it, the CTW "Plaza Sesamo" is different from the original Latin American one. I was wondering whatever happened to "Bodoque." Didn't Bill call him "Mazuki Grouch" or something like that?

    Why isn't Herry Monster around anymore?

    I think he did have one line in "The Steet We Live On." Didn't he say "Wait for me?" or something like that? I know Grover did.

    another thing I thought about today's SS.

    Of course the character of "Bob" on "Sesame Street" is a little different than in real life. I've read that he was married and has five sons. On the show, he definately isn't married though he had a long-time relationship with Linda.

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 36

    "Goldilocks Takes Over Nursey Rhymes" Well, this is the first new SS episode in a while, so I thought I'd make some comments here. Seems like today it was Prarie Dawn's turn to do a news report. You'd think they would have used Telly or even Kermit if they could spare a few bucks in order to...

    Abelardo and Paco from Plaza Sesamo

    Thanks for sharing that. I guess they didn't decide to model "Alberdo" after Big Bird until later on. I have another question while we're on this subject. Did Alberdo the bird once have a different name? I remember Bill Cosby calling him something else (I don't remember what it was) on the...

    Why isn't Herry Monster around anymore?

    20 tears? I guess that's accurate. I could see a lot of people crying when they see Elmo taking over the show. Lol. Herry did get quite a bit of airtime in season 34. He hasn't been seen much this season, but maybe that has a little to do with Jerry Nelson retiring.

    I just bought follow that Bird!

    Yeah, I was just assuming that since Marty dubbed over Brian's Telly in "Big Bird in China." I thought he might have dubbed over the original Marty Telly to make him sound more like we know him today. So you're saying that it's more of his personality that's different rather than his voice...

    I just bought follow that Bird!

    I know it was Martin, but I was wondering if the DVD version used his early Telly voice or the later Telly voice. If it's the early voice I'd like to see it some time soon to get an idea of how Telly used to sound.

    Original "Rubber Duckie" on today's Sesame Street

    I was just about to mention that one. I remember that only Ernie's head was shown there. I have wondered about that considering that both that one and the one that was shown yesterday were updated versions of the original.

    Cookie Monster after season 1

    I agree. That sounds like a good one. Heck, they could have used it as in insert on "Sesame Street" this year since they are focused with healthy eating.

    Original "Rubber Duckie" on today's Sesame Street

    Yeah, I'm assuming it was the original. It was discussed in another thread that in the early eps that Ernie used to have a goofier voice in the early eps and he did sound a bit goofier in the one I saw. If it was the original from 1969, why don't they play anything else from that year? It...

    A question about Follow that Bird!

    I guess that's a possibility too. Cookie and Bert are both seen in puppet form during "True Blue Miracle" and neither of them said anything, so Richard could have performed one while Frank was performing the other.

    TMS Juliet Prowse Pilot

    I never thought of the season five opening being longer than the season one opening. After all, they didn't have Fozzie's joke or a shot of the guest star. Then again, the guest star was shown in the "cold openings" of season five. I don't know whether or not those are actually counted as...

    A question about Follow that Bird!

    It's also a bit strange that Hunt was credited on "Christmas Eve on Sesame Street" since none of his characters were in that.

    Original "Rubber Duckie" on today's Sesame Street

    Something I want to ask about here. I just saw the Sesame Street ep today where Gordon takes Elmo to the ball game and he needs to find a fish sitter. On that episode they showed Ernie singing "Rubber Duckie." I'm kind of wondering if that was the original version from 1969. Ernie's voice...

    I just bought follow that Bird!

    Yeah, I remember seeing that movie when I was little. I have a question though. Did Marty Robinson dub in Telly's later voice on the DVD like he did for "Big Bird in China?" I've been wondering about that since when the movie was made Marty's Telly voice was more like Brian Muehl's.

    your favortie Elmo special

    I liked "Elmo Saves Christmas," especially because of the fact that it's pre-Elmo's work. "Elmopalooza" and "The Street We Live On" were good too.

    Slimey question...

    I remember seeing that video. I think that's weird that they would change Slimey's name for that. I guess they were trying to reduce licensing costs. I'm assuming Slimey's voice now is a sped up version of Marty's voice.
