    Video: "A Note to Self" with Kermit the Frog from CBS This Morning September 12, 2014

    Is this a regular thing on CBS This Morning? Recently I saw a clip from an appearance Art Garfunkle made on a show (which I can't remember whether it was CBS This Morning or a different show) where he wrote a letter to his past self. Could there be other celebrities who have done the same thing...

    Speculation: Sesame Street 45th Anniversary Possibilities

    Another idea that would be great: If they did something similar to the contest 20th Century Fox recently did for The Simpsons, where fans get selected to compete to see who can watch the most consecutive episodes of Sesame Street. Though it seems like something Sesame Workshop might not want to...

    What kind of cookies does the SST Cast use to feed Cookie Monster?

    Actually I believe Sesame Street Unpaved says that they use rice cakes, not rice crackers. It's interesting, at one point in the book, it reveals that the cookies are usually rice cakes (I believe it mentions that real cookies are occasionally used, but they're just a certain kind of cookie...

    Cookie's Crumby Pictures: Star S'mores

    SPOILER WARNING: I can't determine whether what I say in this post is a spoiler or not, but I tried to put most of it in white so it'll appear invisible and have to be highlighted to be read, but even though it works in preview, when I hit "post" and then every time I hit "save changes" the text...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    I think it'd be funny if Oscar changed a line from "I just can't wipe this smile off my face" to "I just can't wipe this frown off my face".

    The "You know what?" thread

    In the 1985 movie Fright Night, at one point one of the main characters points out that nobody cares about vampire movies anymore. Not only have vampire movies gained in popularity in the past few years, but this movie came out the same year as another vampire movie, Once Bitten. I get the...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    I've been puzzled over an internet meme inspired by the Lipton ads. It's a photo of Kermit drinking tea, with a caption which starts begins pointing out something fairly negative about something and then ends with "but that's none of my business". It goes well with the still image, but Kermit...

    Playhouse Muppet Videos

    Same here. I constantly find used copies of various movies and Fairie Tale Theater videos, and more occasionally find the Dr. Seuss videos (but I saw those at more video stores than the Muppet ones).

    Your Thoughts: "Jim Henson: The Biography" by Brian Jay Jones

    Question for Brian: Was there anything about Jim Henson or his work that you were hoping to find out about when researching/interviewing for the book, even if it's something that you wouldn't have actually put in the book, that you were not able to find the answers you were looking for?

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    I recently read at TV Tropes that there was a period when Steven Spielberg wanted to be a serious director. But I thought he was a "serious director" (maybe because of this period...?). I can barely think of any comedies he directed (there's 1942, and I'm not entirely sure whether Hook was a...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    I recently read that the Saturday Night Live video collection showcasing the best of each season ("The Best of 1975", "The Best of 1986", "The Best of 1994", etc.) just has three episodes edited to 30 minutes each. If they're showcasing the best of each season, shouldn't they just pick the best...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    I often think about how Follow That Bird often gets overlooked in retrospectives/biographies on Jim Henson and Sesame Street. I feel like it (and Elmo in Grouchland) should be included and recognized more. But then it hit me: If it was a TV special or direct-to-video production as opposed to a...
