    Questions about anything

    Recently I watched Harry and the Hendersons for the first time in years (I don’t think it was ever something I watched frequently). So early on, we see that Jacques LeFlure and the guy from the museum know each other from having pursued a Sasquatch all their lives, but the museum guy determined...

    In the pre-Internet days, why was it only books that had order forms for the rest of the series, board games, toys and everything else never did that?

    I thought a lot of products had special mini-catalogues packaged. Maybe not order forms, but the back of the action figure packaging or home video boxes might list other things to buy.

    Sesame Street Special - "A Swingin’ Sesame Street Celebration" with Wynton Marsalis on PBS Friday October 30, 2020

    I missed the television broadcast, though I did download the album. It was awesome. I was surprised by Herry on the album. When listening to One of These Things, I was wondering who he was, thinking the voice sounded familiar, my first guess was that it was Rudy (as I hadn’t heard much of...

    Sesame Street Records Returns

    The Swinging Sesame Street Celebration album is awesome (I missed the specials broadcast). On the same day, there was another digital release, Rock and Rhyme with Elmo, a companion piece to the Monster Hits: Rock and Rhyme Video. And it’s like the majority of other Sesame Street Records...

    ‘Tiny Toons’ Is Heading Back to ‘Looniversity’ With New Episodes on HBO Max and Cartoon Network

    The executives liked her enough to add her to Pinky and the Brain (and it seems they considered a different spin-off before that). I always liked her, though I tend to feel sorry for the other characters when she wins (even ones without much personality, like the jungle animals in How I Spent...

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_2154 An interesting sequence where they use a computer to learn about other "upaguses" besides Snuffleupaguses. Geez, it's not long after the adults finally see that Snuffy was real, and they're suddenly learning that there are other kinds of upaguses...

    Sesame Street Records Returns

    An improvement over most of the recent Sesame Street Records releases has been announced: There will be a CD release of A Swinging Sesame Street Celebration, with only "It's a Circle" and "Mahna Mahna" absent. I guess "Mahna Mahna" is due to music rights, I wonder what's up with "It's a Circle"...

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Good thing he decided to do his taxi business after everybody saw he was real, otherwise customers (besides Big Bird and the kids) would never see him and give him business.

    Did they design one-shot Anything Muppets?

    Don't know how likely people would know the answer, but did the puppet designers actually design Anything Muppet characters who were intended to only appear in one sketch or street story? Seems like they wouldn't need the design much, just take the puppet base and put on clothing and facial...

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_0220 Episode 220 features the first appearance of the song "What Makes Music", and also features a rarely-seen girl named Frannie, who was known to have appeared in a couple of the lost episodes, so it's good to see what she looks like (and to know that...

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    This sounds like an awesome episode, Forgetful Jones loses his numbers and thinks everybody stole them, and the episode ends with Gladys and Buster hosting the Sesame Street Nightly News, recapping the episodes events. This could have made a good (recurring) alternative to Sesame Street News. I...

    Dreams about Muppets

    I dreamt that I was at a movie theater watching The Great Muppet Caper, but there's more between the hot air balloon sequence and Hey a Movie (well, I woke up by the time of Hey a Movie), with the balloon landing safely to the ground, then Kermit, Fozzie, and Gonzo get in a car and go on some...

    Dreams about Muppets

    And yet another Follow That Bird dream, I dreamt that I saw an alternate scene from Follow That Bird, where instead of Big Bird asking the rescue kids to call Sesame Street and the gang shows up in the morning to rescue Big Bird, Big Bird looked out a window while locked in his cage performing...

    The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Thread!

    It seems like the kids are often mean to Charlie Brown, but after thinking about it a bit yesterday, it seems like it's really the girls who are regularly mean to Charlie Brown, with the boys usually being on better terms. I almost want to say that the boy who is the meanest is Shermy, the one...

    Segments that were possibly taped on the same day

    Last night I was watching The Leslie Mostly Show: Kermit (actually, a fan-made English dub from a foreign copy), then I watched My Pollywog Ways, and while Kermit is dressed differently in both segments, I think those were shot on the same day (there are known instances of days when they shot...

    Jim Henson's performances in later years

    Recently, I decided to search the wiki for as many segments as I could think of that Jim Henson performed in, to see how often he performed on the show in later years (of course, taping dates are limited, so I'm mainly going by how many seasons he did). I decided to start with season ten...
