I recently saw the recent street story where Ernie directs a movie with Bert, and have thought of three great ideas for DVDs that could include that one.
One, an idea I've already had, would be a new Bert and Ernie spotlight video, with this episode and the flood episode where they stay at Susan and Gordon's apartment along with many great inserts.
Another would be a DVD themed around pretending (maybe call it "Let's Pretend"). Perhaps other street stories for inclusion could be the season 30 episode where the adults put on a play, The Count's noble prize episode (since a few characters pretend to be The Count in that one), and maybe one of the episodes concerning Rocko (like one where Elmo constantly feels treated unfairly because of Rocko). And some of Prairie Dawn's pageants, a few more Bert and Ernie segments involving pretending, Spider-Monster: The Musical, and the segment where Kermit and Gladys pretend to be the opposite species of each other. Not to mention Deena and Pearl segments (since they supposedly used their imaginations a lot). The video Imagine That would be an obvious bonus feature choice.
Finally, they could put it in a DVD themed around making movies. Though I don't know of any other episodes that involved movie making (I remember reading on the Tough Pigs forum that Jerry Nelson once informed one member that he and Richard Hunt once appeared on-screen as directors on the show). But there are a few segments that could be included. The two with Kermit directing Forgetful Jones and one where he lets Gladys the Cow direct a scene, Prairie Dawn directing Grover in a production of "Singing in the Rain", and "The Summer of Snuffy" all come to mind. Maybe also some Monsterpiece Theater and Cookie's Crumby Pictures segments, at least as bonus features (since none of them are really about movie making... Monster in a Box is kinda close, though).
