Hi and welcome to MC EvyGrace.

Um, if you don't mind me asking... What particular sketch do you definitively remember being in? It may seem small, but often we can do a bit of tracking and some people might know the sketch/episode in question.
Also... I happen to organize a quite completist listing of Muppet characters and human chracters involved in the Henson universe of productions called the Muppet Listings, always updating with new information of course, the fifteenth version is the one currently posted if you care to do some digging in the Classic Muppets section of the forum.
Mayhaps if we knew your name or your sisters' we could find the sketch/episode quicker. If you feel more comfortable sending this information via private message, you can certainly do so though you'll need 10 posts before doing so.
Look forward to hearing from you, there's a person I know who might be able to help but like I've said, we'd need a bit of information first.

Hope you can understand and have a great Friday the 13th!

Do you know if you would still get residuals if your sketches were repeated or if your episodes were rerun or released on video? Do you remember when the last time you got a residual was? Could you have gotten any residuals for any video or DVD releases, or from when reruns were shown on Noggin from 1999-2001?

Minor muppetz,

For a while up until I was like 17 yrs old. I would get residual checks for re-re-runs but not for years now. I don't even know where these episodes exist.

Thanks for the info Evy... The one where they're in Puerto Rico... Was this Episode 1316 María's surprise birthday? Cause that's the one I have, in which case I can definitely say who to contact to get it from.
If you know, did your family portray almost all of María's family? Would like to get the info added to the list.

Will have to check when I get back home, but I think I have a sketch with a girl named Tanya as well.
Hope to hear from you soon and have a good day.

I'm not sure if it was maria's birthday....it was a celebration for something...

no...my family just came on and off because ...long story...but to sum it up..

my aunt was friends with the Talent scout at that time...

and she brought her over to my house to meet me...becaus eshe thought I had a "vivid imagination" from there she just feel in love with all of us kids..and well there you go...

in terms of relationship no the show...we were not related.

There was only one "Tanya".. I'm sure it has to be her!

Tanya appeared on alot of episodes..probably more than me...

thanks for all your help

Evy

Hi Evy... Some info. After checking here at home, there's an episode I happen to have numbered 2407, which features a segment with Grover teaching the word "Help" with a girl named Tanya. Not sure if that's the "breakdancing" episode as you named it though.
If you're interested in this and 1316 then I suggest you contact Boober_Gorg, he's got the biggest SS episode library out of all of us. Also, when talking to him, ask him if he has any of the other episodes you're looking for.
Hope this helps and have a good day.

Hello. I am interested in those Sesame Street episodes that you're talking about. I have lots of Sesame-related shows (Square One TV, Mathnet Specials Noggin episodes of Electric Company, specials etc.). I am also looking for the five dancers dressed in blue sequins segment where they were doing a production number on the number 5. I was hoping you have that. Anyhow, e-mail me at stevesadlerjr@yahoo.com Thank You.

Hi SwedishChefCook,

It's been awhile since I've logged in.

Hey...any change you could post clips of episodes on YouTube?
I'm still looking for episodes.
