    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    You do know that all three of those are included as bonus features on the Sesame Street: Old School Vol. 1 DVD, right? You are aware of that release, right? Anyway, I think we all had a feeling those were from the first season. We already knew about that version of Bein' Green for years, we...

    Fan-fic: The ALTERNATE Muppet Show...

    That style seemed more like The Muppet Show: Sex and Violence than The Muppet Show.

    Walt Disney Company - Classic Muppets???

    Well, Jerry Nelson dubbed the voices for his characters, and Kevin Clash dubbed Sam the Eagles voice.

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School DVD

    And now, some final thoughts. I don't think the review really talsk about the disc or booklet art, but the artwork used in the 35th anniversary merchandise is used. Each disc has a 1970s-style illustration of two characters on each disc: Ernie and Bert on disc 1, Big Bird and Oscar on disc 2...

    MSNBC: Old School Sesame DVD's not for kids

    It's interesting that it mentions Roscoe Orman appearing on Sex and the City. I have read soemwhere that said that the contracts for human cast members only restricts them from appearing on-screen in live action kids shows, out of fear that kids would be confused by them having different names...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School DVD

    And now, ladies and gentlemen, her eis my review of disc three. Episode 406: I really liked the opening sequence where the cast said the letters that their names began with, forming the alphabet. I wouldn't be surprised if this scene was reused as an insert in other episodes (the same could...

    The Geefle and The Gonk

    I could be wrong, but I think it's from either the second or third season. The Geefle was performed by Jim Henson. The Gonk was performed by Jerry Nelson.

    With Every Beat of my Heart

    Was there a popular song that these songs tunes were inspired by? While we're on the subject of this song, and I'm sorry if this is off-topic, but were With Every Beat of my Heart and Four ever performed on Sesame Street or do they only exist as audio recordings?

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School DVD

    I watch my DVDs on my computer. My parents have a DVD player connected to a TV, but I don't usually watch that TV (unless I am watching something that my parents are also watching).

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School DVD

    I forgot to give my comments on the skit where Big Bird met Little Bird. Anyway, I thought that skit was good. I figured that Jim Henson probably performed Little Bird in that appearance, though I expected him to give Little Bird a high-pitched Kermit-sounding voice rather than a Waldorf-like...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School DVD

    I watched all of the Season 1 Classic Cuts, so I'll post my thoughts on the clips included. First of all, this seems to have the rarest clips, only two of which have previously been released on video, and as far as I know only two were shown on Noggin's Sesame Street Unpaved series.Still, for...

    Your Thoughts: The World According to Sesame Street

    I noticed that at one point, there is a sampling of Rubber Duckie dubbed into a few different languages. It's been awhile since I last saw Sesame Street: 20 and Still Counting, but is this just a clip from the scene from that special that featured the song in a few different languages or a...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School DVD

    Well, I finally found a copy. One copy at Suncoast. It wasn't ther eyesterday, but it was there today. I watched disc one. I really liked the first episode. It was said that the first skit that got cut was replaced, but I expected it to be shown at the same spot in the show. Still, I liked...

    a question about that has probably asked a 1000 times

    In The Story of Jim Henson: Creator of the Muppets, it is said that many people would look at Kermit and say to Jim Henson, "You've got a frog", and he'd say, "no, it's a creature". I guess that would inspire him to make Kermit into a frog. And I don't think this question has even been asked...

    Lack of charachters in the early 1980's

    Well, I think that was just an insert, not part of a street story or plot (though it seems like a lot of early episodes don't really have plots). Perhaps when Jim Henson was performing for that season he was able to perform on the street set (he did still perform in street scenes in such 1980s...

    Sesame Old School DVD has edits

    Music rights for television are different from music rights for video and DVD releases (are they also different for audio releases?). Normally whenever a TV show or special that used copyrighted music gets released on home video or DVD, the producers have to pay for the rights again, and I think...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School DVD

    I know that a few other episodes on the set have sketches repeated. For example, the Baker film for the number two (also seen in episode 1) was shown twice in another episode. Noggin edited some of the repeats within the episodes but also aired some episodes with both showings of repeated sketches.

    Your Thoughts: The World According to Sesame Street

    I watched it and liked it, though it was a bit boring at times (I'm not as into the international versions as I am the American version). I liked how a lot of really old american clips were shown. I was surprised to see part of the opening from the baker films, and while I figured Kermit would...
