    limits on outdated content

    Over the years, there has been limits on what could be shown in new epsidoes and what couldn't, usually due to certain sketches being outdated (if not due to censorship). Let's see if we can figure out when the variosu limitations started. First of all, I have a feeling that first season...

    Harvey Kneeslapper's piano prank

    (Harvey Kneeslapper is seen laughing and doing something to a piano. He then notices the audience) Harvey Kneeslapper: Oh, hi there. (starts giggling) I have this great joke planned. You see, this is Don Music's piano, and I have attached some elevtrical wires to this piano, so when he hits a...

    Food for Thought...

    I noticed a plot hole, sort of related to that scene. In the scene before that, before Oscar sings I Hate Christmas, Mr. Hooper has both presents that he gives to Bert and Ernie, and tells Bob that he has a little errand to do. He was probably referring to gving the presents to them (they were...

    If Kermit was ever brought back, only this time as a main charachter in street plots

    Most of the street scenes you mentioned were pretty much just one scene from each episode, not entire plots. Though I am not sure about the epsiode where Kermit was sick (it could have only lasted one scene, or could have been two or three or more). The current shows seem to focus on either...

    SesameStreet.org to be launched June 1st

    Hey, my birthday is on June 1, so this will be like a present to me. And ironically, for April Fools Day I had considered starting a thread about a similar news item. I had planned on saying that I sent some e-mail to Sesame Workshop involving the first Old School release, and was subsequently...

    Jazzy Spies #1 and Baker #1 ... do they exist?

    It seems like a lot of fans recall only seeing the one sketch once. Ihave seen some posts that state that the one segment was usually in episodes sponsored by two, but I don't think they had to be. For example, episode 131 was only sponsored by two, but it also featured sketches involving the...

    If Kermit was ever brought back, only this time as a main charachter in street plots

    For some reason I thought that somebody else had started this thread. Anyway, for the last few years, I had thought that while Kermit works as the star of the Muppet universe, and while most of his Sesame Street sketches are the best, I felt like Kermit wouldn't work as well as a main Sesame...

    Jazzy Spies #1 and Baker #1 ... do they exist?

    If you are saying that you need evidence, you can check Muppet Wiki. Many epsiode pages for early episodes were taken from files at the CTW Archives which are stored at the University of Maryland (they can also be viewed by visitors, so if you live near the university, you can check them out)...

    Sesame Street 2000s Music Show

    (the title appears on-screen as the 2002 version of the theme plays. Scene then fades to Ernie and Bert in a studio) Ernie: You know, Bert, we've had music shows for the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, and now 2000s. Are these the same show, or different shows? Bert: Well, they most certainly are...

    Sesame Street 1990s Music Show

    Sesame Episodes on Muppet Wiki

    This site constantly gets updated. I don't know if there are any reviews of the fun packs anywhere, but I don't think Muppet Wiki accepts reviews as part of the site (though it does linkt o reviews). Maybe you could write a review of the fun packs for Muppet Central.

    If Kermit was ever brought back, only this time as a main charachter in street plots

    I don't really think either of those ideas are right for Kermit. Of course, there's no reason why Kermit shouldn't like porridge, but I feel like that idea is a bit odd. Kermit isn't a child, and shouldn't really have child problems. The dancing idea is a bit good, but he has danced before...

    Tons of Henson Qs for my final paper

    Actually, it was Richard Hunt who died of aids. Some fans have speculated that he was a homosexual, but there is no exact evidence of this. I have recently read a post at the Tough Pigs message board from somebody who thinks that Jim Henson was actually left-handed, but performed...

    Sketches and Songs on Sesame Street videos

    I am so happy to finally know the plot of I Want to Go Home. I had wondered if it might have been one of those storybooks that was inspired by Follow That Bird.

    Jazzy Spies #1 and Baker #1 ... do they exist?

    It seems like the one sketchw as rarely seen just because one didn't sponsor the show until later. However, in 1986, the show started teaching kids to count up to 40, but the highest number to be a sponsor was 21, which only sponsored the show twice. It was common for skits about numbers higher...

    What is your favorite Muppet stageshow?

    I only saw Here Come the Muppets. However, there were transcripts for both shows at Tough Pigs (I think thye are both still there), and I prefer the one I saw.

    Jazzy Spies #1 and Baker #1 ... do they exist?

    I wonder why the number one did not sponsor the show at first. Could the producers or writer shave thought it would be difficult to come up with segments about the number one? I think that the Mad Painter and Pinball Number Count series could have easily had segments about one, since those skits...
