I wouldn't be surprised if they just email each other. Whatever happens there, though, is not much of anyone's business.

Looks like Shane has access to various episodes from the anonymous source:
(Fingers crossed we'll see the actual video at one point or another! :fanatic:)
Well, at first only Scott had access to all the trusted sources, then Shane got access, and then Muppet VJ did. So I'm not too surprised that this has eventually happened.

I really enjoy Gina's first episode. It's a great introduction to the character, the science theme is solid, and it's got a previously lost song by Joe Raposo. Hats off to Nancy Sans for this one.

Could somebody describe the episode number animation in episodes 333, 343 and 669? Can you also describe the one in episodes 415 and 425?

Two classic episodes that had me scratching my head for different reasons. First, Elmo meets a shady guy who "deals" him the word NO, and in the latter episode we meet "Garbo."

Well, the former is an interesting and indirect way of addressing drugs (I'm surprised they haven't made it like one of their tentpole "big issue" episodes they bring up all the time).

The latter is just, "130 episodes is a lot of work! Make up characters!"

Well, Lou Berger once said there were certain issues they just couldn't do with in a "Sesame" way (a la Snuffy's parents getting divorced), and you have to admit, even anti-drug PSAs and specials aimed at slightly older children can be a tad . . . unsettling (take it however you will).
