Sesame Street Season 49 Episode 4907 - New Year's Eve on Sesame Street

I wonder who would succeed him for Snuffy...Tyler maybe?

I think he certainly has the voice and the stature to do it.

Did we hear both Caroll and Matt as Big Bird? The singing at the beginning didn't sound at all like Matt, but it only barely sounded like Caroll.

You know, I thought BB's singing part sounded a little like Carroll. I may be wrong on this. After all, I was wrong once in 1987 so it's possible. Plus Carroll has recorded lines for BB and Oscar up to season 50 and it does seem like Carroll performs more of Big Bird when he sings. Just my thoughts.

Nope, it was definitely Matt.

Oh, okay. I guess it's season 50 when we'll hear new material with Carroll as Big Bird and Oscar being that, 50 was the last season he recorded lines for. We'll see.

Tbh, Caroll was already semi retired by season 48. I'm guessing they wanted to get him in for one last episode for Season 50, because of the anniversary.

 

[Daffyfan4ever]

Only one season 50 ep? I'm guessing you're referring to either the premiere or the finale. We'll just have to wait and see. Of course, it may be a longer wait for those of us who don't get HBO. You never know how soon they'll put those online.
