Not bad. We now know for sure who has the Traveling Matt puppet. It more or less felt like a traveling Matt segment. I hope we get a Doozer episode, but I know there are limitations since it can only be one performer physically in a shot at one time for now.

I hope that something else comes out of these shorts, but if this is the extent of what we get I am glad to have it. I made a joke to a friend about the Fraggle Rock movie having Joseph Gordon Levitt as Docs grandson inheriting his old workshop and Sprocket. Now I think that might be a neat idea....

Is Dave dubbing over the voices or are pre- taped by phone?

That's true, there's really no way to know for sure. I would think it might change the performance, though. There's a difference between a puppeteer performing to a pre-recorded voice track and someone rubbing over the puppeteers voice in post-production.

I agree it was a great episode. It was fun to see Matt in the real world again.

I really liked Johnny T's cameo, and Matt being surprised at how no one is outside because they're social distancing.

I liked this episode. It was just like the original series. And of course, one thing happened that I had always hoped would happen. Matt encountered a kitty!
(how many of you here just KNEW I was going to say that? Hands please . . . . )
