    Uncle Deadly's last appearence.

    If you only care about what the last episode of The Muppet Show with Uncle Deadley was, then it was the episode with Jean Stapleton.

    Blue Restaurant Guy?

    Fat Blue also recently appeared in A Celebration of Me, Grover! A lot of minor characters, not just Fat Blue, have been appearing sparringly (and I mean really sparringly) ever since the format changed in 2002 (and even before then quite a few characters appeared less often). Some characters...

    Dr. Teeth on MTV back in the 80s

    I think it would be cool if the entire band had appeared on MTV. I guess they could still make an appearance on MTV, and also VH1, BET (though it might be unlikely), and MTV 2. It would also be cool if Rowlf was interviewed on MTV or VH1. I wonder if Disney would allow Rowlf or The Electric...

    "Christmas Eve" Episode

    Do you think that maybe ice skating might be different from roller skating? Caroll Spinney has said in his book that he performed Big Bird and Bruno while rollerskating. In fact, he first rollerskated while performing a costume character back when he was on the Boston varsion of Bozo's Big...

    "Christmas Eve" Episode

    Has anybody noticed that at the beginning, Big Bird never talks but the other muppets do talk? I think that you can also tell that a different Big Bird costume is used for the opening sequence. Big Bird looks a lot lighter when ice skating then he does in the rest of the special (probably so he...

    Sesame Street at the Macy's Thanksgiving day parade

    I feel like I am 96 percent sure that Caroll Spinney did perform Big Bird. I know that he's performed Big Bird in parades before, for at least an hour, so I'm sure that he's capable of performing Big Bird non-stop for two hours, but I'm not sure if a freelance puppeteer would be able to manage...

    Follow That Bird Discussion Thread

    Would that mean that the voice actors also worked a glove that would radio controll the mouths, or would there be an additional puppeteer for that, making Miss Finch and the Dodos performed by three people each (with one performer not being given credit for the performance, as Miss Finch and the...

    Follow That Bird Discussion Thread

    I have looked at the back of the DVD box and noticed one picture that has Big Bird sitting in a vehicle (probably the truck, though it's shot at an angle where it's a little hard to see the truck driver) and looking sad. This wasn't in the movie. was it in the book? I know that Big Bird seemed...

    Oh. I forgot that a year was included. I know that some years were lsited on-screen for some clips. There was one for the clip from The Jack Paar Show with Kermit performing Inchworm. By the way, do you remember what year that clip was from? I wonder why years weren't listed for every clip...

    2005 Macy's parade: Sesame Street

    It's good that they still include Herry, Alice, and Barkly in the thanksgiving day floats even though they don't appear on the show very much anymore. These characters were on last years float as well. When I first saw the reddish monster, I thought he looked like he could have been from one...

    2005 Macy's parade: Sesame Street

    Well, the Big Bird float and the Sesame Street cast just appeared in the macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. They sang a song called dancing Shoes. I think all of the current Sesame Street humans were there. Gordon, Susan, Bob, Miles, Gabbi, Luis, Alan, and Gina were there. I can't remember if...

    cat fish

    I don't think Clifford accidently got in the background, or accidently in the jucuzzi. When I first saw the Whoopi Goldberg episode, when they were talking about things they had in common, I was expecting them to mention that they both had dreadlocks. I was surprised that they didn't (would...
