Volume 14: In the Country Scene 1 Big Bird packs his suitcases, and explaisn that he is going out to the country. He is going to visit a farm, and see all the animals. And he's going to see chickens lay their eggs around the clock. Segments Cluck Around the Clock Six Snails...

Were all of the performers given a script so that they would know what to lip synch to, or was the recoridng of the closing song just played to all you performers a few times so that you could memorize the lyrics?

There are some episodes from the late 1980s and early 1990s (or maybe I'm just thinking about early 1990s) that I remember seeing, but I haven't ever seen any pages for them at Muppet Wiki, and I never see people discuss them here, so I am wondering who remembers these episodes. In one of...

Do you remember what the official title for episode 536 was? And do you know any other early titles? I have a book about television, which has an emmy awards section, and one winner from 1969 is listed as Sally sees Sesame Street. I wonder if that was the title for the first episode. And if they...

I know that there was a fan who recorded episode 179, from the second season, using black and white film, and that recording was eventually converted to video and has been traded among fans. So something like that must have existed back then.

It seems like it was quite common during season 30 for street scenes to zoom into Ernie and Bert's apartment before an Ernie and Bert sketch was shown. I don't know how often this happened before season 30. Many times something would happen, and then the camera would zoom to the outside of the...

1969 or 1970. There was something called The Sesame Street Learning Kit released in 1970, which was available through mail by Time-Life, and I've read that this merchandising deal was actually made before the series went on the air (I don't know the exact month it was released). This kit...

Actually, Disney owns Bean Bunny, who starred in Tales of the Bunny Picnic. Kermit only made a few small cameos in Emmett Otter and The Christmas Toy, and no other major Disney-owned Muppet characters appeared in those specials. Also, Henson probably got to keep The Christmas Toy because Hensons...

There is something I noticed about The Competition episode. I don't know if anybody else has this problem on their DVD copies, but at times the audio is missing for a few seconds (and not just in the song, which had to be censored by CBS), while on the commentary (it could be all commentaries...

By the way, the song that you had listed as "Life in the Country, Life in the City" is actually titled "City-Country Song".

Volume 12: In the City Scene 1 Big Bird: Hello. Today, we are all going to take a trip to the city! Elmo: How exciting! Telly: I don't know. I'm kind of scared... Big Bird: What's so scary about the city? Telly: There are loud noises... big traffic... long lines... crowded areas...

Volume 12: Morning to Night Scene 1 Big Bird: Hi, welcome to the show. Well, it is now morning, so I am going to have some breakfast. I think I'll go to Hooper's Store, and have some scrambled birdseed, and a birdseed milkshake on the side. What do you like to have for breakfast...

Wow, Leslie Ann Warrens closing number was a lot better than I'd expected (and I already had high expectations for that number). That is also really good. I hope that it doesn't get cut from the third season DVD release. Although somebody did explain what sensual means, it still seems...

Some of my favorites: Lynda Carter singing Rubber Band Man Raquel Welch singing Someone Just Like You Rita Moreno singing Fever

Is sensual supposed to mean sexual, or something else?

Oh, crap. Volume 11 of the book series was Morning to Night, and I mistakingly had the sneak peek at the end advertise Let's Pretend, and it's too late for me to edit that. :eek: Oh, well. I guess I'll have these two "video volumes" not match the book volumes. Here is volume 11: Let's...

I thought that you already knew that it was a special video release of both videos. Otherwise I probably should have said something.

I can't remember if episode 536 repeated any segments, but episode 406 showed Two Song (Song of Two) twice. So it was at least until the fourth season. Maybe I should go to Muppet Wiki and look at the episode pages that use the episode guide-style format and see what the last-known episode was...

I have started wondering if the scene where Sweetums ran out of the tent was originally planned to be shown earlier. Once Gonzo fell back onto the car, we suddenly get a brief scene at the fair, which could have been meant to have been shown earlier. If that scene wasn't there, we'd have Gonzo...

I don't know if the name was copyrighted, but the makers of the game probably didn't know that there were Muppets called Frackles. Outside of The Great Santa Claus Switch and the Muppets appearances on Family Feud, was the word Frackle ever spoken on-screen in any productions? Of course, I know...
