Believe me. I knew that. I'm an expert on Warner Bros. cartoons. That one has always been one of my favorites.
I think Jim was still around when that one was made. I do recall seeing in Sesame Encyclopedia something about a Mummy or Pharoh Ernie performed by Jerry Nelson. That's...
I don't know about "We Wish You a Merry Christmas," but I can recall three versions of "Keep Christmas With You."
The first was on "Christmas Eve on Sesame Street" where Bob and the kids did the song in sign langauge. Then the kids sang it again at the end and the lyrics were posted on the...
Actually, I'm getting a little confused about when they have Frank perform Piggy in season 1 and when it's Richard. I just saw the UK spot in the Peter Ustinov episode where both Piggy and Fozzie sing and they're both voiced by Frank. What was up with that?
I'm guessing by the time that...
Oh, I see what you mean. Kind of like a Warner Bros. cartoon I remember where a cat goes fishing and the fish leave him a note that says, "You can't catch us fish without a worm." I guess the "Sesame Street" writers might have had that one in mind when they wrote the script.
I really didn't...
They could release a DVD set. If they couldn't make a season by season DVD, they could maybe make a box set including the most memorable episodes. Ex: The premire episode; Mr. Hooper's Death; Maria and Luis's wedding, etc.
I'm pretty sure the "Here Fishy, Fishy, Fishy!" sketch was Jim's Ernie.
I'm not really sure of Steve's first Ernie sketch though. These days they do a lot with Steve's Ernie. It's hard to keep up.
This one I remember very clearly. Basically, it took place in the usual Monsterpiece Theater setting. Alistair Cookie (Cookie Monster) introduces the cast, Richardo Monsterbaun as Ali Baba. He doesn't want to introduce all the theives since there are so many of them, but the theives insist...
I don't know, since that was done with Christmas in the form of "Elmo's World," it might be a bit redundant to see something like that. They should maybe do a Sesame Street special with more of a "street story." Maybe they could have some Pilgrims visit Sesame Street and try to hunt Big Bird...
I've noticed Herry was used quite a bit in season 34. I guess the reason they haven't used him in a street story is because they have Telly and Elmo for that. It would be great to see Herry have more of a bigger role.
I don't remember Slimey talking in the hurricane episode, but I do remember one of the characters in Oscar's can wanting to go to Bob's. I wish they'd replay it so I could listen for that again. I remember there's a song in the lyrics archive where it mentions that Slimey sings a song when he...
Yeah, I've noticed a problem with the cuts. Specifically, in the Paul Williams and Charles Aznavour episodes. In the Paul Williams ep, Kermit does the introduction. Then they skip to a backstage scene. And in the Charles Aznavour ep, they did two backstage scenes in a row. Though I haven't...
Since this thread hasn't been updated in a while..
I thought I'd add more here. Another difference I've noticed between Frank's and Richard's Piggys is the personality. I've noticed in the Florence Henderson episode, Piggy got upset in the conversation panel when they were talking about...
Yeah, now that I think about it I remember seeing his ears wiggle quite a bit in that one.
Actually, I really haven't caught him saying "Wocka Wocka!" at all on "The Muppet Show." I thought he started that phrase in the movies.
To be honest, I didn't think she looked that different. Her face was just smaller and her hair was shorter. I think the biggest difference in the first season Piggy is when she was performed by Richard and had a different voice.
In answer to your question, I believe it's at the start of the...
Yeah, I wish PBS would play reruns from earlier eps like that rather than sticking with seasons 34 and 36. They showed the hurricane episodes recently. I'd like to see them go maybe a few years back and show the eps that Noggin used to show on 123.
