Well, I posted a phony press release in the fan fiction section. There will be more fake announcements there.

On April Fools Day, as an April Fools joke, I posted a thread about an e-mail I got from Sesame Workshop concerning a DVD release of classic Sesame Street material. Of course, that info was not real, but I thought I'd continue the joke here, with a series of "official" press releases...

Okay, those ideas are good.

I've heard of it. I think this is one of the most obscure Henson specials. Not very many of us here even know very much about what this special is about. Hopefully, there will be a second volume of The Best of The Electric Company, and this special will be included. Or maybe there will be a...

I do know that the following characters are in it: (i'm listing based on memory) Kermit the Frog Miss Piggy Big Bird Statler Waldorf Dr. Bunsen Honeydew Beaker Sweetums Thog The Mighty Fuvog The Two-Headed Monster Pops Lew Zeland Dr. Teeth Floyd Janice Animal...

I was just reading about Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles at Wikpedia, and according to that site, the Ninja Turtles were at Walt Disney World from 1990-1996. I'm not sure how right or wrong that website was.

Before Here Comes the Muppets, there was a pre-show featuring Rowlf and Sam the Eagle. Does anybody remember what happened in this pre-show? Was it actually tapped for the attraction, or could it have been a clip of the song *** Willow? After all, I remember it having the same setting, though I...

During the week in 1995 that I went to Walt Disney World, I saw some kind of brochure that advertised various attractions, and in a page featuring the turtles, I think there was a note saying that they were going to be there untill a certain time. I wasn't sure if they were really leaving on...

That article sounds cool, but parts of it sound like this is made up. It's interesting that Caroll Spinney thought that Snuffy being thought of as imaginary was annoying.

So, is this your idea for a Henson theme park or something?

It seems common to find copies of this at libraries and flea markets in my town.

When I went to Walt Disney World in 1991 and 1995, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were at the MGM studios to sign autographs. Does anybody know why they were there? How long did they make appearances at the theme park? Could The Walt Disney Company have been interested in buying the Ninja...

In Beaker's first few appearances, his language was mostly yells, gulps, grunts, and screams, and otherwise making it seem like he was too afraid to talk or stuttered so badly that he couldn't say anything past the first sound of what he was saying. However, in the Peter Sellers episode, he...

I wonder why Michaelangelo was the only cartoon character in the special who didn't appear on the cover.

Miss Piggy did dance with various pigs in At the Dance.

Today, I heard the song Yellow Submarine on the radio. This was the first time that I ever actually heard the song. So I was wondering... was Capital I meant to sound like Yellow Submarine? The lyrics sound a bit similar. The melody and music is different, but some of the lyrics are similar...

Okay, so in many character listings, the two vulture-like frackles are referred to as Green Scoff and Blue Scofff. However, in the transcript at Tough Pigs, the blue scoff refers to itself as Scoff in a song where some of the frackles refer to their own names. It is never specifically said if...

I think Kermit was a frog by then. He had his collar in that sales piece, and he was referred to as a frog as early as The Muppets On Puppets, in which he still wore his orange sweater and didn't have a collar.

Both characters were created for The Great Santa Clause Switch, where they were known as Frackles. Gonzo was called Cigar Box Frackle in that special but also went by the name Snarl in a song, and Droop was called P.J. Dripsnout in the design sketches but was referred to in a song as Snivelly...

I have heard that Kevin Clash was a puppeteer on Captain Kangaroo long before performing on Sesame Street (maybe even long before performing on The Great Space Coaster).
