    How did SS evolve from "schoolhouse" to "entertainment?"

    I wonder if there was a minimum requirement of street scenes/new content for each episode. The first few seasons often repeated the exact same segments two or three times (it seems episode 179 repeats most of the same non-Muppet content in the second half). Though it seems it was just the letter...

    "The Muppets" first preview screening

    That scene has made it to a TV commercial recently located online (and the still is at Muppet Wiki), and there is an empty arch where Timmy should be. I would have thought all those monsters were physically there (the arches don't look CGI to me in that shot), unless they just digitally removed one.

    Was the early, non-Kevin Clash Elmo ever in any street scenes?

    Some of this information doesn't quite add up (maybe I should discuss it in the "facts that don't add up" thread). It's been said that Baby Monster was around in one of the earliest seasons, and then was put in storage for many years until they came up with the idea for the Elmo character (and...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    There is a review of Elmo's Music Magic already online, and it turns out What I Am is just a bonus feature (I wonder if it counts among the 13 songs then, though I think the review mentioned it has 14 songs). Still no sign of whether it'll have any classics, but it will have Bert and Ernie's...

    Was the early, non-Kevin Clash Elmo ever in any street scenes?

    Elmo has had his name as early as season 12. A season 12 press release described Elmo as a character who talks in sounds (though obviously there are early segments where he speaks full sentences, perhaps from before he became Elmo). Brian Meehl has an official website, and I e-mailed him shortly...

    Make Your Own Sesame Segment!

    I didn't know it was used at all last year.

    Make Your Own Sesame Segment!

    Regarding Murray Has a Little Lamb, it seems that segment has been dropped since last season. According to the 40th anniversary book, the writers and producers didn't think Journey to Ernie was "Sesame enough".

    Rare Muppet Goodies on The Henson Company's Youtube channel

    For some reason Henson won't allow comments on the Visual Thinking sketch. Though I'm sure I was able to comment when it was first uploaded.

    OK Go and The Muppets Music Video: The Muppet Show Theme

    At first I wondered if maybe it was another moth. I just rewatched the Muppets trailers and watched Sweetums closely, and it seems it's that way in the movie too, though in those clips it's harder to see.

    OK Go and The Muppets Music Video: The Muppet Show Theme

    Anybody notice that Sweetums' eyebrows seem to be a little different? Previously it seems his eyebrows were one piece, but now it seems to be seperated into two pieces.

    "The Muppets" first preview screening

    The trailer that appears before the recent Winnie the Pooh movie shows a recreation of that shot (it's the only scene not in other trailers that sticks out in my mind), and it just shows four monsters, no Timmy. I guess we shouldn't expect so many full-bodied characters... But I actually am a...

    OK Go and The Muppets Music Video: The Muppet Show Theme

    One thing I noticed is that this video doesn't even try to be similar to any version of the opening. It's all it's own version of the theme. The closest to resembling a theme is the pyramid at the end, which reminds me a bit of the risers in the first season theme, but isn't similar enough. I...

    What song can you not get out of your head?

    Right now, there's a song stuck in my head, and I'm trying to figure out the title and singer. There aren't really any full lyrics I can remember/ understand well enough. It seems to go "Nothing in the world can...." something something "Nothing in the world can" something "I love you"...

    I assume that's Matt Vogel performing Pops.

    Little things we've noticed

    Or maybe Kermit remembered what Floyd said upon seeing Rizzo as a waiter: "I'm glad we've got no money, 'cause now I've got no appetite!"

    Minor Muppets you'd like to see in the new movie?

    I can't quite tell if you were already aware Uncle Deadley is in this or not. It's been known for over a year now. While Bobo may have had a change of heart in MFS, I don't really consider him a villian (much like I also don't consider Max from The Muppet Movie a villian). He worked for the...

    When did fans get tired of Pepe?

    It seems like they were slowly starting to recast many characters after Muppets Tonight ended, at the same time Pepe was satrting to become one of the main characters. And while we pretty much only got the best Muppets Tonight characters to return, Seymour didn't return (I also really like Bill...
