Just ran across Fred Garbo's website (he did Barkley in the late 80s). His Inflatable Theater Co. looks like it has the combination of zany humor and performance skill that ss & muppet fans would appreciate! I'm gonna try to go to one of the shows, although they're all a bit far from me...

so i'm the only one who put a human in my top three so far? i guess it's not surprising that on a muppet fan website...but the question was about favorite characters, which i interpreted to include humans and to refer to the actual character development and role in the show rather than who i...

i bet she would have been nervous beforehand, but not while performing, because i bet caroll is SO good he's not intimidating--like the bird comes alive so well that you'd forget a living legend and master artist was in there and that you were seeing him in action at his craft, and you'd feel...

hmmm....it would probably be something that started off sounding ok, to make maria go "oh, that's nice oscar!" but then there'd be a twist to make it grouchy and turn it into a one-liner. i mean, if you think about the other preferences of the grouch...he likes to eat spinach ice cream with...

my idea for an anniversary special oh, i like everybody's ideas! in a perfect world, we should have MULTIPLE 40th anniversary specials! well, here's the way i see one possibility in my head...sort of a takeoff on telly's worry about the new year in ss stays up late. rather impractical as it...

count & prawn--they have been sent. --streetscenes

hey count, i can send you these: One Way, the Fonz Muppet and Guiding Angel. Don't Walk, Chris and the Alphabeats. Counting The Floors, the Elevator Barbor Shop Quartet. Cereal Girl. Count von Count’s Continuous Country Cooking Down-home Dinner. Numero Comparsa. Stand By Your Can. Wally. and...

hi rob, i can send you sesame street book & record 2 on mp3s, but i must plead ignorance on file sharing sites...where would you like them posted to, and how might i put them there?

cool. thanks. do they (or does anyone else) have any justification for this date?

when does "Classic" ss end? i'm sure this has been debated on this forum before, and i'm sure many people have answers based on everything from character or muppeteer deaths / debuts, to changes in look, sound, or format, to "when i stopped watching it." (of course my answer to all three of...

i haven't seen it on youtube, but it's on the sesame street video player under the name "Martian Music"

well, there's two genres here--filming your kids having fun genre, which is cute, and lame attempts at making fun of sesame street, which is just annoying. i'm with vic here--it's clogging my youtube search finds and i have yet to see one that amuses me. this is not just an american phenomenon...

ah, that's a good thought. one thing that seems to be lacking and desperately needed in our society is respect for working class and service jobs. and people who work more than one job but somehow manage it. and people who change jobs and do different things over the course of their lifetimes...

interesting. could be. i think of grover as the kind of person who takes everything he does a little to seriously for his own good, and doesn't understand the concept of putting in the minimal effort necessary to get the job done, so no matter how small the task, he's putting in 110%. which...

they're both on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBtk39S6Z9g http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXAb8PsK0yw

lost, eh? but you both made it back--did you try hare krishna? ;) i, too, haven't been here that long, but welcome back to one of the only places in the world where not only does everyone get that joke, but it's not even very funny any more because it's so obvious...:boo:

hmm...i was gonna say boarding house, but i'll have to go with a verison of the seasonal theory, one based on their work schedule. i think of them as forming a repertory company kinda parallel to the one made up of their muppeteers--there are some close pairs/groups who see each other in their...

here is telly singing "Hace Frio!" ...but beware: it was sunny here and the weather said there was a 6% chance of precipitation today, and then i watched this 2 minute long video and now i'm in the middle of a blizzard and there's snow blowing sideways, up, and around in circles...i'm not...

okay so like five minutes ago i looked out the window and it was partly sunny, and i checked the weather and it said there's only a 6% chance of precipitation today. then, bumming around on the sesame street video player, i watch Telly sing "Hace Frio!" and there's snow blowing and muppets...

oh, and making lists. :) guess that's why i like these threads... and making schedules and rearranging books on shelves or furniture in small rooms. constantly sorting things and organizing them in different ways, you know, like john cusack in high fidelity: "And If I want to find the song...
