Anyone know which episode it is when Gonzo tries to show Fozzie how to be weirder saying to him, "Weirdness is as weirdness does- bees smell good and flowers buzz!" I think it's the same episode with a live action clip of someone all in black, maybe Mumenschantz, spooling out rolls of toilet...

What do you think, am I right about this: The instrumental song that plays behind the film about three red balls traveling a roller coaster type track is actually the song "When I'm not near the girl I love" from Finian's Rainbow. I realized this while watching the muppet show season 1, the...

I recall a cartoon skit in which a boy tries to go to sleep for the night but his dog keeps imitating an alligator and frightening him. Every time the lights go out the alligator comes back! His mom tells him it is his imagination. Eventually he figures it out. I am looking for descriptions...

In an episode of sesame street I was watching, Grover, our favorite world traveler, goes somewhere with good surfing. He says, "I just got back from ___ and boy is my board tired. Wind chime. No. Anyway," Then continues as usual. I get the 'is my board tired!' part as a take-off on the 'boy are...

This is the general discussion page and so I thought I'd ask here and see what happens. I had a picture matted and bought a frame for it. The frame is wood with a glass front, the mat and picture, then cardboard. It came with a small thing that looks like a saw blade with both ends bent back 90...

None quite so exciting as the engagment that currently precedes my post I'm afraid. 1) Muppet Society: I am slowly trying to compile a list of those in or near Albany NY so I can contact you and we can all meet up somewhere neutral and maybe form a muppet society, hang out, talk muppets...

I have the song itself on tape and am going crazy trying to place all the voices to muppet performers as they sing 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10, You went and counted higher! If you know which voices are who OR can tell me which numbers are sung more than once by the same puppet OR know what performers...

Hi out there. So I'm very sad lately and even though I don't have any of you on the board as close friends, I thought the anonymous thing could help me talk more easily to any of you. I also wrote it in capitals because it can stand for Seasonal Affective Disorder. I realized that my...

I am trying to learn some italian from a book designed to teach. The language has some similaities to Spanish which I took in high school. The book is very good but it doesn't tell me where to stress syllables, or rules for pluralizing nouns. Can anyone help me? I want to know which syllable to...

My fiance tells me he saw a television interview with Linda Bove, the deaf woman on Sesame Street, and she was talking clearly. He couldn't tell me what it was he was watching, so I can't refer you to the actual interview. She spoke about what it was like to be playing a deaf person on Sesame...

Yes I'm here to chat about that CTW show called Square One TV. It was a show that made math fun and I have fond memories of it. I did a search here and found several people remember it. I've also been browsing the square one tv website and forum for info on the show. That forum seems to be a lot...

I can remember two verses of this song but not the third. Anyone who can give me the third gets a hug. Here are 2 out of 3: 2)I read a magazine about a beauty queen who likes to bounce all day on a trampoline. 3)In this newspaper I just read about a guy who ate a thousand pieces of pumpkin...

This is my thread on synesthesia (sin-ess-thee-zha) The zh sound in my pronunciation guide is that of the g in mirage or the z in azure. I only recently heard of this condition and wanted to know if others have heard of it. “Synesthesia” is the condition. A “synesthete” is the person having the...

I've been wanting to write out some memories of skits and such to see if I can spark some others to remember. Here are a number of old ones I remember: 1)Cartoon- a couple of teenagers try to wake up a plant. They use shouting, a trombone, alarm clock, and a dog. The dog's bark sounds like a...

While listening to the song on muppet central about the man going to Saint Ives, several questions came to mind. Let's NOT argue over the number going the other way. There is already a thread to address that. It is called "Sesame Street song is *WRONG*" and I would make you a link to it if I...

I need to vent a little too. I am getting married in July to an awesome guy. I am having Thanksgiving at his parents' house. I want to have him to my house for Christmas, but my parents want me to come alone one last time. This is really bumming me out and I don't know whether to go home without...

I'd like to start a thread about references to Sesame Street seen appearing on shows other than Sesame Street. I can mention one instance I know of. In an episode of a show called the weekenders, four kids happen to be in a restaurant where a baker is serving desserts. He announces the number...

Anyone ever hear of this? I am looking for a program that used to play in the local museum with the Sesame Street display. The program's name is: A Walking Tour of Sesame Street with James Earl Jones. It was made when Sesame Street was 10 years old and I really miss it. I have no idea if it was...
