This is sad. I wonder if production on the next season will be delayed. I don't know if Clash had an understudy, but then again, they could very well have less new Elmo material next year. With Elmo the Musical and several old Elmo segments, they could probably stand to make more Elmo-less...

In the book "100 Dumbest TV Moments", there's a quote by George Lucas saying that the special is not cannon, "period". I wonder if he's changed his mind or if he's gone back-and-fourth over the years on the subject (like how he often says the whole original trilogy was originally written as one...

After watching the "Talky Stick" several times, I've noticed something weird about Warren Wolf's teeth. It looks like he could be wearing a retainer over his few fangs. I wondered if maybe this was a reference to Warner Wolf, whom Warren is based on, but then I looked at the wikipedia page...

I find it interesting how this set, in contrast to the previous two volumes, seems to focus more on the episode plots (well, these episodes have more plot focus and actual plot stories, while the previous volumes episodes barely had any plots) and less on the celebrity appearances. The packaging...

I'm not sure if I've ever heard "I'm Gonna Build the Biggest House You Ever Seen", though I feel like I might have heard it on The MuppetCast. It is interesting how in "I Am Proud of Me" Grover builds a castle made of blocks, and he never messes it up or knocks it down accidently. I was...

It's on Old School Volume 3. It's one of the season 12 classic cuts. Yes, they do. No. Unless you count Poco Loco, who was originated by Jerry but by season 12 had been taken over by Michael Earl. Brian Muehl's Barkley and Michael Earl's Poco Loco are in it.

Top ten best TV show theme songs (including shows that I've rarely if ever watched. Shows I rarely watched much will be denoted with a *): 10. "Too Close for Comfort"* 9. "Daniel Boone"* 8. "The Greatest American Hero"* 7. "The Monkees" 6. "Salute Your Shorts" 5. "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" 4...

Time for another of my "vs" threads! Which song do you prefer, "The Hello Hello Hello Song" or "Big Hello 1-20"? Both songs are sung by Big Bird and the cast on Sesame Street, both are from season 12, and both are about saying hello. And both songs are very catchy as well. I prefer the "Big...

In "The King's Nose", it seems like only Jim and Frank were allowed to operate their characters, while anybody (probably Richard) could handle Jerry's. In early scenes, when various characters are surrounding Mumford, we see Bert, Grover, Kermit, Guy Smiley, Herry, and Sherlock Hemlock. It's...

I wonder if Frank's characters really did start to get recast in 1997 like it says on Muppet Wiki (regarding Eric's characters). I first heard about the occasional recasts (which have become more frequent, in a way Frank's performances could be seen as occasional now) in 2001. Of course I first...

How does one determine when Frank stopped being a "regular performer" on the show? He began directing movies in the 1980s which had already limited his schedule (he points this out in 1989's An Evening with Jim Henson and Frank Oz), and the 1998 book Sesame Street Unpaved mentions that at the...

I doubt Twin Beaks was the last one. That's from season 22, and I'm pretty sure they continued making new Monsterpiece Theater segments during the late-1990s. Not sure if any debuted in 2000 or 2001. The last time a Monsterpiece Theater segment aired was in 2002, I think it was the "Guys and...

I found a segment that I've been wanting to see for quite awhile now, the one where Telly sells Kermit a head warmer. I now know what the headwarmer looks like! Interestingly, according to the upload date this was posted last year, but I could have sworn I searched "kermit and telly" a...
