Kinda interesting to compare Frank Oz's season 25-43 screentime with Steve Whitmire's: https://muppetcentral.com/forum/threads/steve-whitmire-appearances-on-sesame-street.67219/ Looks like Frank Oz was more involved in the Around the Corner era than Steve Whitmire (kinda surprising considering...

Overall for his entire run on the show: Season 25: 5 Season 26: 0 Season 27: 5 Season 28: 3 Season 29: 5 Season 30: 48 Season 31: 22 Season 32: 24 Season 33: 19 Season 34: 15 Season 35: 17 Season 36: 9 Season 37: 5 Season 38: 1 Season 39: 11 Season 40: 10 Season 41: 11 Season 42: 1 Season 43: 1...

I think I found that street scenes in episode 3895 was also Frank Oz as Cookie Monster (albeit only doing voicework with puppeteering being someone else) and Cookie Monster again in Pigeons and Cookies and Trash (since Rudman's earliest year was 2001 in season 32)

Since posts have been made for Jim Henson and Frank Oz, thought it'd be interesting to see how often Steve Whitmire was on the show and years where he was less involved than others. Gonna do the shorter 26-episode seasons first and do the pre-2003 ones later. Season 34: 15 Ernie: Street...

I notice how among the performers from The Muppet Show (Jim Henson, Frank Oz, Jerry Nelson, Richard Hunt, Dave Goelz, and Steve Whitmire), Dave Goelz is the only one of the main 5 who didn't get that much involvement on Sesame Street. His only Sesame Street performances were as the Humungous...

I posted my work for how I counted Frank's work in seasons 1-9 and minor muppetz posted their proof of the segments Frank did in seasons 10-43, and yes we both included the street scenes.

Gonna try to add on to the post by trying to figure out how many segments Frank Oz was in for the first season. I'll do each season by different posts. Season 1 - 149 (not counting the CTW sign holding since no one speaks and could be some other performer doing it) - Bert: 58 (all 55 apartment...

I know that somewhere around 1997-99, Eric Jacobson began playing Bert and Grover whenever Frank Oz was too busy. This post here does show that Frank Oz was still performing them majorly until around 2003...
