It's a shame they seem to only be able to release three seperate seasons at a time. But the contents look good.

*does a spit take*

Whoa, Episode 3174 has the Red Hot Riding Hood News Flash segment with the map and taxi? That's NEVER been available on the Internet before!!! And it's probably only a matter of time now until that segment shows up on YouTube.

And speaking of Kermit's special reports, I wonder which one is included on episode 1957. Without a doubt it's probably one already on SesameStreet.org or on YouTube.
So far there are only twelve Sesame Street News segments out of the 77 produced in less than 20 years (yes, that's an abnormally high amount of sketches for a recurring SST segment!) available almost complete on SesameStreet.org or YouTube (in English.)

I hope it's one with either Dr. Nobel Price or Don Music. But we'll just have to wait until somebody downloads and reports.

And I wonder which interview with The Three Little Pigs it is. Given the season I'd say either the one with The Count or the straw house.

And here's hoping that Sam the Robot appears in some of the season 5 episodes and that Bruno and Brian Meehle's Elmo appear in the season 15 episodes (I was going to say Richard Hunt's Elmo, but I think season 15 is a bit early for that).

I purchased them all today. I was zipping through them, for lack of time, looking for interesting clips. I was happy to see the 1969 anything muppet forwards/backwards sketch included. However, when I stopped to play it, it was in Spanish! So we're still outta luck for the full English version. I never knew that they aired redubbed foreign language Muppet sketches on Sesame Street.

Thanks for sharing that. I just got some extra cash in my iTunes account recently and was wondering what to spend it on. Now I know. (Well, that and Cartoon Network's lineup since there are some shows I want to see on that network that I don't get.) Yeah. It will be cool to see, Elmo before he was Elmo. According to what I hear, he still had the name Elmo and third person speech, but he was lacking the voice we know today. I guess it was Brian in Season 15 and Richard in season 16, before Kevin took over in the season 17 premiere. Correct me if I'm wrong on this.

Note that I never said that a pre-Clash Elmo appeared in any of the season 15 episodes, I was merely hoping he'd be in some of those episodes.

In episode 406 there's a cartoon about the number 20 that's shown in english and then suddenly repeated in spanish. I think there's another episode where something like that happens. Maybe that's the case here. (Or did you see everything in the episode?)
