    Question about "Daria" closing credits

    I remember watching Daria for just over a year on YTV in the late 1990s, but gave up at the start of 2000 - just before Season 3 wrapped up. I do recall seeing the title character and other major recurring characters in cosplay outfits during the closing credits. There were some outfits that I...

    Sesame Street's looming new format

    I learned something about the current Sesame Street changing to a new format in which the letter and number of the day feature would likely be discontinued. Looking at recaps for the German version from around 2005, it appears that the looming new format on the U.S. version may likely compare...

    Comment on Episode 886

    I remember seeing in the Canadian broadcasts back in the late-1970s, the episode in which The Amazing Mumford makes Sesame Street disappear. It was one of the first episodes I ever saw. CBC also aired the rerun during Season 9. But did he really make Sesame Street disappear? Truth is, if he...

    Letters found on a City Street (late 1990s animation)

    I remember there being a series of animated segments which involves a city street which has nothing but commercial businesses starting with the letter featured announced by kids in voiceover. The letters featured were B, C, D, F, H, M and P. I only saw the D, F and H versions on TV. I'd like...

    1987 "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" coming to Nickelodeon

    I found out on Facebook that Nickelodeon acquired the rights to the entire 1987-1996 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon series. Episodes will also be offered on PlutoTV. This series is, by far, the best of all the TMNT series that ever existed.

    "Sesame Street" Muppets in other TV shows

    Can you think of any TV shows (not specials) other than Sesame Street in which Sesame Street Muppets appeared? Here are a few examples: The intro of the April 17, 2008 episode of Wheel of Fortune featured Big Bird planning to go to Hooper's Store and buy 25 birdseed milkshakes in honor of the...

    Question (and comment) about Herbie Hancock appearance on Sesame Street

    After finding out on Muppet Wiki a few days ago about Herbie Hancock's segment about making sound effects with his keyboard, it stated that he played an electronic music version of the show's theme. After seeing the segment within an hour or two ago, I heard nothing in terms of the theme to...

    Cities with a Sesame Street?

    This has nothing to do with the TV series, but rather a real street with the same name. Do you know of any real cities that have a Sesame Street? I did learn just now, that in Toronto, Ontario, there is a real street called Sesame Street.

    Anybody remember "Today's Special"?

    Hi, I remember seeing a kids' show that was produced in Toronto, Canada called Today's Special, which I first discovered on Galaxie (not the current digital CBC channels devoted to streaming music, but the bygone programming block with children's programming from Canada and overseas). Based on...

    Question about a Pigs in Space sketch (Alice Cooper episode)

    Normally I would post on the Classic Sesame Street forum, but once in a while I may contribute to a thread about The Muppet Show. So I thought I'd bring up this topic. I heard of a Pigs in Space sketch on the Alice Cooper episode in which Link developed a rare space disease, but the other crew...

    Question about Lynne Thigpen (Chief on Carmen Sandiego series)

    I remember seeing the Chief on Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? back in the early 1990s, and its spinoff, Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego? until 1998. It was a great show, and she really sounded more serious when it comes to ACME's quest on finding Carmen. However, when I saw Lynne...

    Casey Kasem

    I remember discovering on Muppet Wiki a while ago that the "B for bandit, biscuits, bottles of wine, etc." sketch, which was narrated by Casey Kasem, was last shown on Sesame Street on Episode 2230 from 1986. Observing recaps from 1987 and beyond, I do not recall there being any segments...

    Letter Z segments on Canadian Sesame Street

    And this relates to the pre-Sesame Park era. I realized that episodes sponsored by the letter Z had to have the American cast pronounce the letter as "zed" and not "zee" when announcing the sponsors or in street scenes. But while there were U.S. produced inserts for the letters A through Y...

    Question about "What Do People Do All Day?"

    I noticed there was a swing ride supposedly at an amusement park near the end of the song segment. From what amusement or theme park did that ride exist? I read a comment on the video suggesting that the swing ride looks to be from Cedar Point, but that amusement park is in Ohio. I would...
