    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    I’ve seen a Facebook movement to boycot using YouTube from the tenth to thirteenth. Not sure if that would do any good, and I’m not really sure of all that’s suggested (so don’t use YouTube at all, even if you’re not using it to watch anything? Just don’t watch anything there? Just don’t upload...

    Remembering Caroll Spinney (December 26, 1933-December 8, 2019)

    I think maybe he meant that you saw it as a kid, but also saw it on YouTube as an adult, helping you remember details.

    Remembering Caroll Spinney (December 26, 1933-December 8, 2019)

    This is sad news, though I figured the end was near. Interestingly, last night I had a dream in which I learned something new about how Bruno worked, something involving his hands. these past few days the Muppet Wiki forum has had a few discussions on him.

    Sesame Street Episode 847 with Margaret Hamilton

    I don’t really want to turn this thread into a thread about the actual lost episodes (we kinda already have a thread for that), but most of those do sound interesting. The stuff I’m most bummed about are the character debut episodes and most of the season three Snuffy-centric episodes. I’m also...

    The "What Commercial was that?!" Thread

    I’m remembering a commercial from the late 1990s. The main thing I remember was that it featured a sports team, the coach told his players, in an angry tone, “we’re not here to have fun. We’re here to win! So win!” I’m thinking maybe it was in black and white. Since it features a sports team, I...

    Sesame Street Episode 847 with Margaret Hamilton

    if the episode wasn’t withheld from future airings, I think there’d still be an audience of fans interested in seeing it, as it features a character from The Wizard of Oz, played by the same cast member. Crossover episodes are exciting. interesting that lost episodes were brought up. Ever...

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    I’ll have to look back at the editing history (from when the info came from a Japanese program guide). A lot of that is different from what I expected (and I’m sure some of the info from that odd guide was just omitted from the user). I didn’t realize Hooper’s Store being in competition was a...

    Sesame Workshop/Shout! Factory Deal

    According to Muppet Wiki, the DVD release of Sesame Street’s 50th Anniversary Celebration includes some of the celebrity favorite moments (like the PBS broadcast does), but they also lead to the full clips discussed. Kinda cool, though not anything real high on my wishlist (there are a few...

    Sesame Street "Lost and Found" at the Museum of the Moving Image with Rosemarie Truglio and Norman Stiles November 24, 2019

    I hope that weird animated version of Being Green surfaces someday (assuming it did air on the show), whatever it is. When I think “weird animated Bein Green”, I think of a portion from a commercial for a Sesame Street album (I forget the title now, one of those greatest hits-type albums...

    Dreams about Muppets

    Last night I dreamt that I was watching the 50 Years and Counting DVD, and there was a change to Put Down the Duckie. The actual release is the original non-celebrity version, in this dream I was watching it, expecting it to not be the celebrity version... and suddenly it's a new celebrity edit...

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    those two episodes that were guided today sound awesome. Are there any other scripts that note a specific performer doing a character to a pre-recorded track from another performer? Considering how rare it seems that Jim Henson performed in street scenes, I was wondering if his characters were...

    Sketches that are only available in a foreign dub

    I think most of the Answer Lady segments have only been available to fans via foreign dubs, with only one (that was uploaded by Sesame Workshop) available in English (and I know the wiki people at least have the second one in English).

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Hopefully that thing about needing a research reason to view the shows was a misunderstanding. Would “helping Muppet Wiki” be a good enough “research reason”? Would it be wrong to make up reasons to want to do research to watch episodes?

    Sesame Street "Lost and Found" at the Museum of the Moving Image with Rosemarie Truglio and Norman Stiles November 24, 2019

    I’m guessing there wasn’t really any new info to add to the wiki (I figured images wouldn’t make their way). A while back Scott was talking about whether a page on pulled segments would be worth doing, making me interested in learning of segments that were specifically pulled (as opposed to...

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    makes me wonder how much will be left to research for the wiki by the time they’re all there.

    Sesame Street "Lost and Found" at the Museum of the Moving Image with Rosemarie Truglio and Norman Stiles November 24, 2019

    Based on what’s been reported here, and it might be a little hard to determine from clip montages, am I right that the only unaired Sesame Street content featured are “Snuffy’s parents get a divorce” and (at least part of) the Katy Perry segment?

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Episode 244 has a couple of Ernie segments I don’t remember seeing pictures of before. They look interesting.

    The "You know what?" thread

    In Home Alone 2, while it’s understandable that Harry and Marv would want to kill Kevin when they see him unexpectedly, it might have been in their best interest to just not confront him at all, since their goal was to just lay low, steal cash, and get passports. If they didn’t go chasing after...

    Sesame Street "Lost and Found" at the Museum of the Moving Image with Rosemarie Truglio and Norman Stiles November 24, 2019

    Surprised about celebrities who passed on, I don't think those are really rare just because the celebrities passed on.
