Wow...I remember seeing those toys as a kid and you guys are right, some of them look downright weird and creepy!!

I was 10 years old when Mr. Hooper died and remember the episode clearly. As I was already aware of the concept of death, I recall being sad and yet impressed that the producers decided to deal with the concept honestly. Rather than write off the character or recast, SS dealt with it in a way...

Mr. Havens is one of my all-time favorite singer/songwriters...may he Rest in Peace and I thank him for the music.

Another tragic loss...Rest in Peace Mrs. Henson and at least you are reunited with Jim.

Ha ha...The infamous Star Wars Holiday Special!! At least that show introduced the world to Boba Fett. I had almost forgotten about A Sesame Street Christmas Carol...what was that? Good call man!!

In my own humble opinion, they will NEVER top Christmas Eve on Sesame Street. The Elmo's World Holidays special is pretty cool, because it explores other holidays like Hanukkah and Kwanzaa (a good lesson of other celebrations and cultures), as well as featuring Kelly Ripa who I thought played...

I was so pleasantly surprised with this set...a lot of memories as a 39 year old lifelong Sesame Street fan!! While I will admit, I was hoping for some more bonus features, this set was fantastic!! I thoroughly enjoyed Sonia's commentary (we need more of these) on the Puerto Rico episode, "Born...

Thanks for the back-up everybody, I will be buying this and collecting money from bets about it's existence!! Seriously though, I like Drtooth, love collecting the rare and obscure.

I for one, am glad to see this special FINALLY released on DVD. This is another one of those TV shows (or specials) that I tell people about and no one believes me.

This is some of the best news I have had in days!! Hoping to see so many great songs and skits here, especially the song "That's What People Do"!! Can't wait!!

I have always loved "Hop on Pop", but I am not sure if that book could be a movie...maybe a short accompanying a full length feature?

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been here in a long while but I did indeed purchase the MST3K vs. Gamera set, and have watched the entire set twice already!! Love it!! I had forgotten how funny those episodes were and now I am in the process of collecting more sets...I am an MST3K junkie all over again!!

I just thought of one with a strange twist. In 2005, I bought Season 1 of "Sigmund & the Sea Monsters" released on Rhino (as all of the Krofft shows were at one time). Not too soon after that, Rhino to the best of my knowledge went out of business, so we STILL haven't got a release for Season 2...

I wish "The Great Space Coaster" would come to DVD...what a great show! Another little known fact about that show was that Ray Stephens, who played Roy, was the policeman for Village People on their 1985 album entitled, "Sex Over the Phone".

Wow...I'm without my computer for a few weeks and I find out about this, outstanding news! I cannot wait to watch this set, looks like a lot of fun! Glad to be back in cyberspace and back at MuppetCentral!

I still have to name the very first Sesame Street album my favorite, I must have listened to that record (yes, I said record) everyday until it wouldn't play anymore. The Songs from the Street set is wonderful, my wife got it for me one Christmas and it's one of the best gifts I have ever...

I have always been a huge fan of Sid & Marty Krofft and felt that Lidsville was one of their more underrated shows. I think that having Dreamworks do an animated film adaptation is the best way to go. Land of the Lost was a tragedy (that was my absolute favorite non-Muppets show as a kid) and...

I would support this too. Once in a while you get a good vintage bit on "Play with me Sesame", but not often enough. I think a PBS Classic channel would be a great idea.

Two words come to mind...Pam Grier. For those under 30, she starred in Roger Corman's women in prison films and Walter Hill's Blaxploitation films (Foxy Brown, Coffy, Friday Foster...) in the 70's before doing smaller roles in the 80's and starring in Quinten Tarentino's "Jackie Brown". I think...

Frank Oz was such a master of improv...there's a moment on one of the Old School sets where Frank is performing as Bert, and one of the kids keeps grabbing at him and Bert says' "What..." (there's more I'm just drawing a blank) and it's obvious to me now as an adult that Frank simply didn't...
