Hi,

Could anyone please tell me what SS DVDS Snuffy or his baby sister Alice are featured in (excluding Follow That Bird)??

DVD appearances by Snuffy:
Christmas Eve on Sesame Street
Learning About Letters
Sleepytime Songs and Stories
Big Birds Storytime
Elmo's Sing-Along Guessing Game
The Best of Elmo
Elmo Saves Christmas
Elmopalooza
Cinder Elmo
The Street We Live On
Friends to the Rescue (probably... I know he was in some of these episodes, and I know that this release edited some street scenes)

And hopefully he will be on the upcomming Old School box set. I would be surprised if he wasn't included in at least one sketch on that set.

Snuffy also appeared in the following videos, currently not available on DVD:
Getting Ready for School
Don't Eat the Pictures: Sesame Street at the Metropolitan Museum of Art
A New Baby in My House

Alice also appeared in A New Baby in My House, but I don't know if she was in any other videos or DVDs.

Is Jerry Nelson's voice left intact when his Snuffleupagus is used?

So far Christmas Eve on Sesame Street is the only production available on DVD that features a performance of Snuffy by Jerry Nelson, and thankfully Sesame Workshop did not have Martin Robinson dub over Snuffy's lines to make it more modern. I hope that some of Jerry Nelson's performances as Snuffy get included on the upcomming Old School set, and I hope that Martin Robinson does not dub Snuffy's voice. I have a feeling that if Snuffy is on the set the voice will not be altered, as the target audience is adult fans and not todays target audience.

Yeah. I was thinking that too. I guess the box set is too show more of "Sesame Street's" history. If they dubbed over Snuffy's voice, they'd also have to change Oscar's color in season one. Put Roscoe Orman in scenes where Matt Robinson should be. I could go on and on.

Besides, from what I can tell from "Christmas Eve on Sesame Street," there's not really a big difference between Jerry and Marty's Snuffy. Jerry's is just a bit softer and doesn't have as much personality. I guess they weren't as concerned with changing the original Snuffy voice in CESS than they were with the original Telly voice in "BB in China."

Also, as far as I know, Noggin didn't have any voices altered to sound like they currently do.
