    Proffessor Hastings fear lecture

    What is that supposed to mean? I can't tell if it's meant as a compliment or as sarcasm (perhaps thinking that I either can't wait untill Halloween to write a fan fic like this or that I can't wait untill the Old School DVD set coems out to see if a Proffessor Hastings sketch is included, but...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    I initially decided to put it on my christmas list, but in the last fews days I have felt tempted to just give i and buy it on the day it comes out. I am still trying to decide. I'm sure that I will make the right decision.

    Lack of charachters in the early 1980's

    Now that I think of it, Jim Henson did perform ins treet plots for more than just season premiers. I've read that Henson performed Oscar in a few season one episodes. Oscar was usually in the street plots, so Henson must have performed him there. Caroll Spinney was sick at the time, so if Henson...

    Did Noggin show many episodes with the most famous songs?

    I guess it would make sense to focus on the msot famous, memorable, and/ or historically significant plots. 19 out of 20 season premiers were included, as were such classics as Mr. Hooper's death, the trip to hawiai, Big Bird going to camp, Miles' adoption, and Maria and Luis' wedding. I guess...

    Noggin cuts on Episode 1

    I also think it's weird that 123 Sesame Street is edited even though it was included on the Songs from the Street set, but I wonder if music rights for audio releases are the same or different as music rights for video releases. I am most dissapointed about 123 Sesame Street being cut, but the...

    Noggin cuts on Episode 1

    Just because that sketch is presented unedited doesn't mean that the whole episode is. Consider Yourself could be edited, since that song wasn't written for Sesame Street. Another song that wasn't written for Sesame Street, I Whistle a Happy Tune, was performed in the secodn season premier. That...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    I think the Muppet Central review is almost ready. There is a thread in the Classic Sesame Street folder asking for people with a copy of Noggin's version of the first episode to post what was cut from there, so that a comparrision can be made.

    What do you want?? :)

    Although probably unlikely, I would like to see the entire Jim Henson Hour series on DVD, complete and uncut, right down to the original Jim Henson Productions logo. For Sesame Street, I'd like to see a DVD set containing every single Kermit the Frog sketch. Realistically thinking, I'd like...

    Ideas!

    That creature is one of the heaps. I can't remember if it was the green heap or purple heap. They first appeared in a sketch in The Muppet Show: Sex and Violence, where in the script they were listed as Green Heap and Purple Heap.

    Noggin cuts on Episode 1

    If you look at that page, it mentions that some of the scenes from the skit where kids play a game got cut. It mainly just cut the parts where the black kid got hurt. I believe at one point the page for episode 1 mentioned that one (or more) of the 30 dots segments was cut. It no longer says...

    Did Noggin show many episodes with the most famous songs?

    I have been wondering lately. As I've constantly looked at episode pages on Muppet Wiki, I have noticed that it seems like Noggin didn't really show very many episodes that feature Sesame Street's most famous songs of all-time, including Rubber Duckie, I Love Trash, C is for Cookie, ABC-DEF-GHI...

    Rubber Duckie: first year of broadcast

    Of course, a lot of Sesame Street songs from the first season have a 1970 copyright. Even the theme song, which was on the show since the first episode. There are a handful of first season songs that do have 1969 copyrights, such as The People in Your Neighborhood and Five People in my Family.

While many of those are bigger, and while they...

    I noticed that Herry appears on the cover, but looking at episode guides, Herry only appears in one of the episodes included (the season two premier, in the song Circles). I know that he also appears in the background for C is for Cookie, but I hope there are some extra Herry Monster sketches...

    Why are FR songs so short?

    Are there very many animated shows that regularly include more than one song, besides the theme song? I think that many episodes of Garfield have multiple songs, though not in the same short story (many episodes have a song in one of the Garfield segments and one of the U.S. Acres segment). I...
