I mean, we practically got both green Grover and orange Oscar plenty of times, so.....
And Brian Meehl’s Telly, and “Television Monster”, and “Mr. Snuffleupagus, your imaginary friend”, and the street’s former looks...I mean, we practically got both green Grover and orange Oscar plenty of times, so.....
I was caught by surprise with this edit too. Similarly, in episode 957, they cut off the beginning of the skit where Maria has Ernie and Bert imagine what would happen if they went their own separate ways; it immediately starts during the first scene of Ernie's imaginary sequence. How much do you want to bet that lots of people were wondering what the fight was all about and how come we're seeing Ernie and Bert in these imaginary scenarios?Perhaps the most baffling edit from these recent shows is cutting scene 6 of episode 593: Cookie Monster is trying to make peanut butter by spreading butter on a peanut... David points out that peanut butter is not made that way, and it segues into an insert from season 2 about how peanut butter is made...
OK, those two segments are cut... BUT, they show Cookie's reaction to that scene (out of context), and he proceeds to eat the stick of butter and his pile of peanuts..
Just seems odd to not just cut it all altogether... But that's just my humble opinion
As far as Bill Cosby goes, it's definitely a pity because I'm sure that will also mean no more DVD releases of the original Electric Company (in addition to the SS fanbase being larger), at least in terms of episodes from the first 2 seasons and Friday episodes from the rest of the series in general.Bill Cosby and John John will no longer appear on DVD releases, there’s no doubt about it that.
Well, those characters at least have universal appeal outside of its target audience. Elmo, on the other hand, has little of that. Much of Elmo's appearances is geared solely to the little ones, which is why they are unlikely to share any clips of the character from the pre-Kevin Clash years. And to be fair, however, Oscar's explanation as to why he went from orange to green is technically canon.I mean, we practically got both green Grover and orange Oscar plenty of times, so.....
