So I guess Austrailia is 1 season behind America. That show is from season 32.

I think part of the problem is they're trying too hard to make something crazy and funny. It's comedy of artifice rather than being something truly funny to laugh at.

NARF!!! Just like Will and Grace!:big_grin:

According to what I hear, it is very uncommon to have a children's show that is an hour long. Think about it, there are none other than Sesame Street. By adding Elmo's World to the show, they are, in essence, making it a 45 minute show, and Elmo's World, thus making it more appealing to the PBS stations who buy and air it.
I have no complaint with Elmo, however. I mean, it is primarily a show for kids that appeals to other age groups and all. Elmo is the same age as most of the viewers, 3-5, so it is obvious that that's his popularity. In short, kids can relate to the character of Elmo. I have no Idea who can relate to Monater Clubhouse..unless they are..uh..high!

Guys,

Im in England, and we just got the episode were the Jacket Fairy turned Zoe's coat into her friend for a Playdate.

In this ep Herry to went to school and wondered what the coat hooks were for, So he went back to the Club House and all the Monsters put chairs, the telephone and stuff on the coat hooks.

Does anyone know how far we are behind from the US ?

I really didnt like Joey Mazzarino's Two Headed Monster, But the other Puppeteer done a good job, Is it still Jerry?

I think it would be better if they had Monsters that we know, Or could get to know.

The Two Headed Monster, Herry, Grover and Rostia and then two new monsters.

Whatever happened to Lulu ?

See ya

Well, it appears that you guys are about a season or two behind. The Monsters Clubhouse with Narf, Mel, Googoo, and Phoebe started out a couple of times last season, but took over this season (the current U.S. Schedual).

Lulu is a pretty pivitol player in some U.S. Eps. This season, there was an episode in which Grover gets a popcorn Machine, and Lulu has a pretty funny scene. Ernie's trying to push the pop corn, selling it to everyone, because Grover cannot turn it off. She explains that she likes pretzles and doesn't like pop corn. She never tried it, and Ernie offers her some. She proceeds to eat all of Ernie's pop corn and says she still likes pretzels better anyway!

Tooth,

Ive only ever seen Lulu in the A+E Sesame Street Biography special.

and i thought she looked like a great new Muppet !



I like to see that ep.


In the eps i catch over here the only Muppets i see in street scenes are Zoe, Rosita, Baby Bear, Telly and Big Bird... Oh and Elmo.

Is it like that all the time ?

Or was that Lulu, Ernie and Grover scene on the Street ?
And does Frank perform Grover on the street?

Thanks

Yes. As you said, that's pretty much the cast. Of Course you add Oscar, Ernie and Snuffy and that's really it.

Cookie and Grover made it to the street segments via David Rudman and Eric Jacobson. Frank only performed them in taped inserts (Like the Letter of the Day).

And, yes. The pop corn Machine was an "on the street" segment.

Lulu was on another "on the Street segment" this season, I think Her zoe and Rosita were singers or something.

Hope this helps.

Lulu was also made over for this season. WHereas before she was dark blue (almost Cookie Monster/Groverish color), she's now more periwinkle and she has glasses.

From what I heard, Joey Mazzarino and David Rudman are now the Two-Headed Monster. I can understand why Jerry wouldn't want to portray that particular character anymore after Richard's passing. At least he still plays the Count, ah ha ha ha ha!

Is it just me or does Mel look like they just gave a new nose to/dumped blue fur all over Boober Fraggle? And Google is a watered-down version of Red Fraggle, if you ask me (in terms of personality). And you gotta love the Elephant. (Actually, if you want to hear a rare Dave Goelz SS appearance, he performed the part of that same Elephant for a song called "The Elephant Elevator Operator"...where he made the Elephant sound a bit like Beauregard.)

Joey Mazzarino and David Rudman first performed the Two-Headed Monster in CinderElmo, originally shown on Fox in December 2000. It's great to see when performers continue beloved characters that we've all missed.

Monster's Clubhouse

Drtooth said:
Okay, we expressed opinions of Elmo's world, but I want to talk about Monster Clubhouse.

Basically, I think this part is quite uneven. At points, it is funny and entertaining, while other parts still are annoying and pointless. I mean, I like the "Chased by an elephant" parts, not to mention "Who could that possibly be?" featuring a nerdy muppet portraied by Jerry Nelson (whose character reminds me of Gill on the Simpsons). And Snack Time is varyingly funny, when they eat the picture of bananas (instead of an actual bunch), a salami helmet ("it me favorite part"), and such.

However, I did not come to praise it, I just think that it's awful silly at times (sometimes I just drop the silly part and leave it as "Awful"). I really don't like the pink or Green monsters. I do, however like Mel and Narf (sp)

But in all honesty, I'd rather see Cookie Monster, Grover, or Herry when the monsters tell us "iiiiit's Monster Tiiiime!!!"
I agree about Monster's Clubhouse.I didn't get it then,& still don't get it.Opening song is ok,but looses its appeal thereafter.I do agree & I thought the old monsters(Frazzle,Herry,Grover should be on it as well).And the chased by an elephant? :rolleyes: :stick_out_tongue: Bring back old monster skits please.Thank you.
