    Frank Oz and salesmen

    Well, pretty much all of those salesmen characters are different in personality. Samuel Snidley is a bit like Grover, and seems to be a wacky type of Frank Oz character, but in his one sketch he approached Bob from behind the wall, though he seems like he could be a door-to-door salesman. And...

    The Brand New Ask Jim Lewis Thread

    I've read that you are one of the writers of Mupet Sing-Along: It's Not Easy Being Green, and I assume that you helped write "The Best of Mupets Tonight" episode of Mupets Tonight.

    SST Season 21 outline: Snuffleupagus excersizes

    Well, I don't really know anything about wyoming, much less anything that would have happened there during season 20. And I think this sounds like the kind of plot that would last at least three episodes.

    Sesame Podcasts

    The latest podcast epsidoe is about sports (for some reason my ipod lists the date as 3/ 16. Could this have just come late for me?). I can't remember very many of the skits right now, and don't feel like checking. It was mostly uninteresting film footage. But there is a sketch where Elmo plays...

    SST Outline: Snuffy reads words

    Hmmm, I don't know about taking outline suggestions from others. You can write an outline like that, maybe use my recent Sesame Street outlines for reference as to how I have written them. If you don't know what seasons certain segments are from, you can look at the various episode pages at...

    Questions for Fran Brill?

    Ithink it would be interesting to know why she didn't perform in Christmas Eve on Sesame Street or Follow That Bird. Not as important as other questions that have been suggested here, but would still be interesting. And maybe you can ask her what it was like performing in Elmo in Grouchland.
