    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    I just looked at the border again, and I was a bit wrong. There is a border that has a small yellow line and a big green border. The characters are standing in front of the part of 123 Sesame Street that has the window that goes into Ernie and Berts apartment. Bert is actually behind Herry...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    Okay, on the title, it says "Old School Vol. 1". The 1 in the title is designed similar to the 1 seen in the opening for the Baker films. I'm not too good at describing these numbers. Maybe somebody else can. It is good that a better quality picture of the cover was used, though it would be...

    Did Kermit and Kevin Clash's books come out?

    I read that Kermit the Frogs book, Look Before You Leap, and Kevin Clashs autobiography, My Life as a Furry Red Monster, were supposed to come out yesterday. I searched my local book store and several other stores (Wal Mart, Meijers, Target) and didn't find copies of either. I also haven't read...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    I have just noticed that the 1 in "volume 1" looks like it is designed after the 1 in the Baker film series. SWEET! I figured that this set would come with some sort of booklet, especially since the Electric Company set came with one. Then again, I also expected The Muppet Show: Season 1 to...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    I really like that info. By "the original pilot", does that mean the promotional piece with Rowlf, the first of the test pilots, or the first episode (if the latter, then shouldn't that be considered part of the main content?)? It's interesting that there will be 45 features. I guess thats...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    It is neat that Herry Monster is on the cover, and great that an early 1970s photo is being used as opposed to a new photo. It looks to me like a few photos of the characters were photoshopped togetehr to form a collage, similar to the Muppet puzzle from 2003. It would have been great if Herbert...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    I just noticed that the guest stars listed have J as their first initials. Coincidence? It's interesting that Rubber Duckie and C is for Cookie are both going to be included, as those have been released on video and DVD many times in the past (unless the version of Rubber Duckie that's included...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    If/ when more volumes get released, I wonder if they will still focus on the years 1969-1974 or if they will expand, perhaps to 1976 or 1979, or perhaps focus on years after 1974 (1974-1979, etc). Or if they will be themed differently (like "Sesame Street in Hawia", featuring the hawiai...

    Miss Piggy's Head Prop on the eBay!

    No, it came out in 1984.

    This is great news.

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    If each episode is close to 60 minutes, then 60 times five is 300, so the set could include five hour-long episodes. I don't know if the running timke counts features (if there are any). That could get us one episode each from the first five seasons.

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    Another thing that I wonder is if this set will have a "preview other Sesame Street DVDs feature". And once this is released, I wonder if other Sesame Street DVDs will include a clip from this set in the "Preview" section.

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    Does anybody know if Don Music was around during any of the first five season (my guess would be the fifth season, if he was around during these years)? It would be great to see Don included.

    airings of specials

    I think that the christmas ones are the only ones to have been shown at least once a year. I know that A Muppet Family Christmas was broadcast on ABC in 1987 and, I think, 1988, on NBC in 1989, on Nickelodeon from 1992 untll at least 1997, and on The Oddyssey Channel in 1999. I am not sure if...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    And here are what skits I'd include for the best of season compilations. I hope I am right about the years of certain sketches, but these are my best guess. I also hope that I don't accidently list anything that was cut from the Noggin broadcasts of the premier episodes (I am going by how Muppet...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    I noticed that that cover called it "Old School Vol. One" instead of "Nostalgia Set: First Five", like how Amazon has listed it. I'm not sure if that was an old cover that wasn't changed, or what. Does it really say 1969-1974? I thought it said 1969-1979. This would make a great layout...

    Extracts from Kaye Ballard episode of TMS

    Since that episode is available on DVD, it might not be a good idea to show clips there. If you were showing scenes that were cut from the DVD then maybe it would be okay (and some scenes that were cut are included on You Tube), but nothing was cut from the Kaye Ballard episode. I know that You...

    Another Family Guy Reference? You Be the Judge

    Is that episode on DVD yet? I thought it was from the fifth season, which hasn't been released on DVD yet.

    Did Grover eventually stop slapping Kermit?

    I know that during the early days Grover would often encounter Kermit by slapping him on the back and saying "Hey, Froggy babyyyyyy!!" However, did he eventually stop doing this? I haven't seen too many Kermit and Grover sketches from after the 1970s, but in all of those team-ups, Grover...

    The Great Muppet Caper

    That's sad. I really hope that Disney decides to bring them back sometime soon. Yeah, I know that they are not as major as Rowlf or Scooter, but they are two of my favorites.
