    an idea for a 50th anniversary marathon

    Who thinks that The Disney Channel should have a 48-hour marathon celebrating the 50th anniversary of Kermit The Frog? It could have a variety of things, plus new bumpers featuring various muppet characters made especially for the marathon. Here's my idea for day 1: 12:00 AM- The...

    Doesn't it seem like Richard Hunt was underused?

    That's not true. The Two-Headed Monster, Sonny friendly (a minor character who I'm surprised was recast) and Gladys The Cow were all recast. Sure, Gladys wasn't recast untill 2003, I've read that the to-headed monster wasn't recast untill 1997, and I don't know when Sonny friendly was recast...

    what disney should have done for the special edition movie DVDs

    Disney chose to release four of the muppet movies on DVD at the same time. However, I think it would have been better if disney chose to release them all seperately. Maybe Disney could have released The Muppet Movie in July, The Great Muppet Caper in September, The Muppet Christmas carol in...

    "Happy Holidays from Sesame Street" DVD Box Set

    It would be cool if this skit had some bonus segments. Here are some bonus skits that i would include: •the three-part Sesame Street news skit where Kermit gets a phone call about somebody standing in the snow during a snow storm (which ends up being a prank pulled by harvey kneeslapper)...

    Does Lucasfilms own The Star Wars Holiday Special?

    Is The Star Wars Holiday Special owned by Lucasfilms or another company? I have read that George Lucas wasn't involved with this special, so i wonder if Star Wars was licensed to another company.

    Behind the Scenes of "The Muppet Movie"

    You mentioned that there was an emmit otter line (for smaller puppets) and there was a sesame street line. Do you remember what all lines there were? I'm guessing that there was a main Muppet Show character line (although I have a feeling that the main performers were performing the main...

    "Happy Holidays from Sesame Street" DVD Box Set

    I wonder if Sesame Workshop would ever consider releasing A Special Sesame Street Christmas on DVD. Would there be any problems with music rights?

    I just acquired some really old Sesame Street books

    Do the letters or numbers books have any pictures of any muppets or humans? i do know of quite a few first season muppet skits that could have been in those. The letters one could have had ABC-DEF-GHI (The Book of People and Things had The people In Your neighborhood, so it's not like they...

    The Muppets have made many appearances on The Tonight Show. The first appearance by The Muppets on The Tonight Show was when Steve Allen hosted.

    Carroll Spinney the most dedicated Muppeteer

    Maybe Jerry Nelson would write it. Or maybe Adam Hunt or somebody else in his family.

    MT&R: 50 Years of Jim Henson & The Muppets (12/2/05 - 1/26/06)

    I never knew that there was a Jane Henson Foundation. While Tales of the Tinkerdee is one of the rarest henson productions, there are things that I think are rarer, such as the Hey, Cinderella! pilot and any classic episode of Sesame Street not seen on Noggin.

    Cookie Monster after season 1

    That skit is mentioned in Sesame Street Unpaved, but it doesn't say anything about that being his first skit. It was just briefly mentioned, asking "Remember when Cookie Monster was on one of Guy Smileys first game shows where he chose a cookie over an all-expense-paid trip to hawaii?". You...

    Richard Hunt's Characters

    Rosita and Baby Bear were both introduced in 1991, a year before Richard Hunt died. I think that Baby Bear (along with Goldilocks) was also originally meant to be a one-shot character who just happened to become a regular.

    Sketches and Songs on Sesame Street videos

    It's been a long time since I've seen this, so I can't remember too many details about the plot other than it involving Big Bird and the humans playing games at the arbor area (I think they used sign language to sing In A Cabin In The Woods). But I do remember that it had the following skits...
