I was watching Hey Cinderella today, and something hit me. When Cinderella wonders what kind of present she could possibly give the king, Arthur points out that he doesn't have a backscratcher, which she ends up giving the king, who later remarks that a backscratcher is the kind of present a...

I think it would have been hard to give The Electric Mayhem big parts in The Muppet Christmas Carol and Muppet Treasure Island. Are there any classic stories out there with roles that can easily be filled by The Electric Mayhem (I know, they were among the stars of Muppet Snow White, though...

I wonder what's cheaper, shooting on location or in a soundstage. I would think an indoor set would cost more because you'd have to pay for studio space and need to build sets and such (though they would have had to build the outdoor Sesame Street set in Follow That Bird), but then again, it...

Couldn't people still make "poops" if they have their own copies of the footage, on video or DVD (or download)?

So cool that Pops will be the focus of an issue. I guess he'll be the most minor character to get this kind of focus (unless one of the other issues surprisingly focuses on another minor character). Though I have a feeling Pops will be just as featured here (if not less) as Gonzo was in "Gonzo's...

The houses weren't seen with any celebrities. Neither was Vendaface.

Suddenly I wonder if Fozzie would have worked well as Fred instead of Fezziwig. I know he was given that role because of the name similarity, but if Fezziwig had a different-sounding name, I think they could have had Fozzie play Fred (it'd give Fozzie a bigger role), and maybe Sam could have...

I don't remember. I remember it was announced series 1 would be released on may 5 2002, but then I think that was only referring to the first convention to sell them and they ended up released in june. After that it was said that the figures would not have any speciffic release dates, they'd...

It was the one where Kermit interviewed the pig with the straw house. This makes me wonder what Sesame Workshop normally does when restoring episodes (because I've read of a few instances where Sesame Workshop restored every episode, even before Noggin began). With so many segments that get...

I recently rented the Boris and Natasha movie, first time I saw it since 1997. And after all these years, I still think it's better than the Rocky and Bullwinkle movie, though now I feel it could have been better. While it is often funny, at times it feels more like a Lifetime original movie...

It's "Daddy Day" with Elmo.

First I thought they were scheduled for April, then May, and now July? I'm pretty sure the person who wrote that Mindset article and has those figures lives outside of the US. Perhaps they are available internationally. Or maybe he got lucky.

I just watched episode 598, and interestingly, a Sesame Street News Flash is shown with the 1986 News Flash title card. I was surprised to see that there. It makes me wonder if that segment was originally part of the episode.

Oh. I read that before these episodes were added to iTunes Muppet Wiki only had (previously incomplete) info on one of the volume 2 episodes, and somehow didn't notice that the Muppet Wiki pages DO mention that they aired as part of 123 Sesame Street. And I was aware that the wiki doesn't have...

I dreamt about quite a few Muppet things last night... First, I dreamt that I was watching a scene from the Gene Kelly episode that doesn't appear in the episode. Gene Kelly goes outside the theater and finds Kermit, not wearing his collar, and then they start singing, with some tune like...

I never saw the script when it was supposedly online, but I read that at a public event that Frank Oz spoke at he'd mentioned that he read that script and said that he would NOT have any part in it if it were made. This info came sometime after he'd mentioned that he didn't think the script for...

Today's entry is on the baker films: http://www.henson.com/jimsredbook/2012/06/04/62-61969/ At first I was confused by what was written - "Shoot #s (4th chef falls)". It made me wonder if that meant they shot the baker scene from the 4 segment but not the others, or if maybe they shot the...

I just downloaded and watched episode 56. Some observations: The scenes with Oscar and Mr. Hooper make me wonder how long they have known each other. Mr. Hooper seems surprised that Oscar would order such a disgusting sundae. It's also funny how when Oscar invited Mr. Hooper to dinner he...

It's "Word Day" with Cookie Monster.

I wonder if these are still coming out. We were told they'd be released in April, then May, I haven't seen them in stores and I haven't read any reports of anybody finding them yet. But maybe this is Palisades series 1 all over again (I remember at the time it felt like it took forever for that...
