Yeah... My understanding after reading MC's review is that each fifth disc in the complete set has the bonus features concordant with that particular season's previous full set release.
EX: Disc 10 (outer numbering), Season 2 Disc 5 (actual disc numbering) has the Season 2 full set extra features.

Hope this helps. :smile:
As an owner, I can vouch for this as well.

Whether they'll play or not is an entirely different matter- Most people open it to find half the discs free-floating around the box.

Oh good. What I meant was that we could have the bonus features from the individual sets, plus the new ones. It's cool that we're going to get them all anyway!
:excited:

And yeah, what are we, 10000 members give or take? I mean, just because we probably make up less than 10 percent of the population...
:wink:
To everyone else, all this sillyness stems from the President Obama thread.
:zany:

Hey, government of, by and for the people, which am us! :wink:

That's annoying about the discs being loose in the box. That's a manufacuring issue obviously.

Hmm, I can't find the link right now but the other day I was on a Blog and one of the commentors mentioned how she knew Richard Hunt and that he always told people he was an architect, so people wouldn't ask him to do voices, lol.

...Oddly enough, there is a famous architect named Richard Hunt, you can find him on Wiki!

Yeah, you know? I think it was Dave Goelz who said in his interview for MC that most of his friends and family don't know what he does, and I think it's safe to say that many of us get that same feeling from a lot of the muppeteers. This always confused me because I thought, well don't these people ever watch TV, and also how do they keep their lives hidden? If that blog is true, and there's not much reason why it shouldn't be, we have at least one answer.
:wink:

Wow, FM, I was thinking of that same interview! Lol, we're insync! Well most of my friends who are only casual Muppet fans probably wouldn't recall seeing the TV appearances by the Muppet performers.

Dave Goelz:
The public interest always surprises me. I come to work in these rooms with no windows. At night I go home. I just live my life. I guess I just don't think much about whether people are going to watch. Most of my friends don't know much about what I do, and we don't talk about it. I have a different life away from work. Which is fine, because my work can get pretty intense.
It sounds like in their Muppet careers they're kinda used to not being recognized and are more shocked when it happens than not. Frank Oz did say once that it's nice to be able to go to the store and not be recognized (though he might have that problem nowadays!). And then Richard was in that article where he said puppeteers seem to like anonymity because "they had weird childhoods." Hehe

But yeah I know what you mean, how can you possibility keep it all to your self? I mean...didn't anyone ever ask Richard what buildings he'd made? Haha

"Hmmm, what buildings? Well you know that big, white house in Washington?" Lol! You know though? I think that might be just the sort of smartalec thing he would say, lol!

Yeah, I guess I missremembered that part of the interview a bit. I thought Dave said they didn't know what he did at all, but actually he said they didn't know much about what he did. That is different. I also realized after I asked myself that question that most of the time they're on camera, they, themselves are not seen, duh! Still, some parent watching Sesame Street might recognize some element of a voice...

Lol exactly!

You know I'm forever surprised at the little things my parents still remember regarding the Muppets. I bought a Snuffy toy a couple years ago, hehe, and my Dad was like "Oh yeah it's that Snuffle-whatever thing!" And my Mom insists I watched Little Muppet Monsters, though I have nearly no memory of this!

Ah, makes me think of a cross between a whatever and a snuffleupagus. Hmmm, I wonder what that would look like?

Well, color me excited! After almost 2 weeks, and when I was starting to get nerveous, our tickets for Jersey came! Whoopy!
:excited:
