Sam and Friends Book Read our review of the long-awaited book, "Sam and Friends - The Story of Jim Henson's First Television Show" by Muppet Historian Craig Shemin.
I don't think Youth 68 is publicly available.
The Muppet Show and some of the specials had different end titles in the US and UK. Similar but centered/spaced differently. Bunny Picnic on Henson Rarities is the UK PAL edit. For purposes of foreign dubbing, the shows would also be mastered...
Erik Adams of The Onion AV Club reviews our Henson Rarities channel:
Thank heavens for the VHS junkie, the VCR jockey, and the other nonprofessional, copyright-flouting cultural archivists preserving the not-so-recent, videotaped past on the internet. In the highly specialized field of Muppet...
Yes, Henson Rarities is back up.

Could a moderator remove the personal email addresses posted above by myself and Oscarfan?
Henson Rarities has been shut down again. I saved a lot of the material this time round and have gradually been posting it here.

The channel was taken down.
Last time I contacted the people who did this they didn't respond, so I'm doubting a response this time.
Julie Andrews is 80 today. In the 70s she did a few TV specials featuring The Muppets, three of which I restored for the Henson Rarities channel. Two additional specials were left untouched here due to questions of copyright. [Julie On Sesame Street, The Julie Andrews Hour]...
Thank you.
Although it's almost entirely unrelated to my restoration work, I do have a Patreon account where people can generally support my artistic endeavors.

Cases like that - where there's a dissolve transition in a shot that's otherwise being replaced with a better source - don't come up TOO often. Though some of the Storyteller episodes come to mind. In those cases, the VHS source was restored as much as possible, and the VHS and DVD sources...
The actual Jim Henson Hour versions of Food/The Three Ravens, Living With Dinosaurs, and Secrets of the Muppets that you will have seen are all unaired versions taken from master tapes. [As is Inner Tube / Pitch Tape, of course.]
However, there are also aired versions of Food, The Three...
Yep, Henson Rarities is back up for the time being. With thanks to one of the copyright holders, who politely rescinded their copyright notice. We are still under copyright threat [2 strikes out of three] so I would still recommend getting the "Complete Youtube Saver" for your browser and saving...
"Couldn't We Ride" is the only example I know of, of the Jim Henson Hour logo appearing over footage at a break. I recreated it for quality reasons but it is as per the original.
The account was shut down due to certain people reporting it for copyright. I've sent emails to try to correct this but can only call this a major loss. Much of what was on the channel consisted of new restored edits unavailable elsewhere.
Some of the Henson Rarities material is on Vimeo but...
I have the full Merv Griffin episode, but not in DVD quality by any means.
The intro and outtro here are from that episode:
There's a LOT of stuff I haven't put up yet because we're worried for some reason or another, or because I haven't had the time. I have plans for some of it though...
"Best Ever Muppet Moments" is British, so it might actually be in the UK TV appearances I've put up; I haven't checked. There are a few clipshows like that there.
