    Behind the Scenes of "The Muppet Movie"

    Kermit originally didn't have his color, and even after he got it, he occassionally didn't wear it, and often mentioned that it is a collar. His collar got stolen in the Crystal Gayle episode of The Muppet Show, and in one Muppet comic strip, Robin and his friends wear all of Kermit's collars...

    Sketches and Songs on Sesame Street videos

    Well, yesterday I found a used copy of a video that I have been looking for for the last few years, and now, here is my review of...... (cue drumroll) Sing-Along Earth Songs! The plot of this video involves Grover taking a group of anything muppet kids on a hike in the mountains. Grover...

    The Boy Who Cried Cookie Monster

    I was thinking about my story today, and I thought of something that might have been better than Herbert Birdsfoot reading the story. Maybe it would have been better to have had Bert read the story to Ernie, possibly after Ernie played a trick on Bert. I also thought of another way to have...

    Herbert Birdsfoot: Hello, folks. Herbert Birdsfoot here, and today, I am going to read to you the story of "The Boy Who Cried Cookie Monster". (scene fades to a bakery setting, with Harvey Kneeslapper behind a counter while Herbert narrarates) "There once was a practical joker...." Harvey...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    I have been thinking, although Sesame Workshop confirmed in a few e-mails that this set is comming out, has Sesame Workshop made any official announcements outside of e-mails? I do believe this info, I just wish there would be an official press release.

    Cartoon shows that didn't make it

    I thought this thread was about animated shows that were planned but never made (at least not as a full series), but many people have been mentioning shows that were cancled after two seasons. Anyway, I would like to say that I wish the Austin Powers series would have been made. Back when...

    "The Best of The Muppets from The Muppet Show"

    Uh, why would you replace one scene from an opening with another scene? Do you hate the episode that originally featured Statler and Waldorf's comment but like everything from the Gilda Radner episode except for Gonzo's opening scene? :eek:

    your 2006 henson dvd predictions

    what's been correct Well, so far, I've correctly guessed that there would be three new Sesame Street DVDs (the two Sesame Beginnings DVDs and Guess That Color and Shape would be those). The upcomming Nostalgia Box Set would make the count of new releases four. There has also been at least one...

    Sesame Workshop unveils plans for Season 37

    I wonder if Dinner Theater will be hosted by anybody. I think this would be a good segment for Bert to host. If not Bert, then I would want Herry Monster to host it. It would also be cool if it was hosted by Grover, who introduced while trying to serve a meal for Fat Blue.

    Snuffy - 1978, 1979, 1980

    It was said that Michael Earl Davis was Caroll Spinney's understudy at the time that he performed Snuffy. I wodner if he stopped being an understudy when he was cast as Snuffy. After all, at the time, everyone thought Snuffy was Big Bird's imaginary friend, which limited interraction between...

    No shirts, no shoes, no service, no more?

    If the no shirt policy was dropped, I would think that Mickey Mouse would have more to do with it than George W. Bush... ;)

    Allistar Cookie's pipe

    I was reading at Muppet Wiki that in the earlier Monsterpiece Theater skecthes, Allistar Cookie had a pipe in his mouth, and at the end of the skits, he ate the pipe, but then he eventually stopped having a pipe, possibly out of fear that it was making kids want to smoke. Now, I remember seeing...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    I have recently though of an idea. I am not sure if it would work or how good the idea is, but after this set get's released and we all know what's on it and how it is presented (as in whether there are full episodes or just classic clips, or both, or even if there are special features) we...

    Snuffy - 1978, 1979, 1980

    You mentioned that because of The Muppet Show you, Caroll Spinney, and Brian Meehle were the only full-time performers on Sesame Street. But Fran Brill didn't perform on The Muppet Show (except for in two episodes from the first season). Was she busy doing something else? Also, Brian Meehle did...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    Both of those are already available on the video and DVD release Put Down the Duckie (which originally aired on television as The Sesame Street Special). Of course, I haven't seen any copies of this on video or DVD at any of my local stores in a long time. All of those have been released on...

    Eeeehh! I've got the uncut version of Muppet Family Christmas!

    That is The Christmas Toy. Kermit appeared at the beginning and end of the special (I guess from your description of the show you didn't get the first few minutes in tape). This has been released on video twice, but so far it hasn't been released on DVD. This is one of the few productions...
