I wish they hadn't been cancelled. I really liked them. My favorates were
the main characters. It reminded me of "Dark Crystal" in a way...
 
Only not as gothic, man... sheesh. I loved Dark Crystal, but I know some
kids, no make that parents <kids never get traumatized as much as everyone
preports>, got real upset at this "muppet movie." As a fantasy, it was sublime
but it was like Gremlins, they tried to say it wasn't a cutesy movie for 
the kiddies, but everyone said, "Awwwww... fuzzy things..."
 
Which became "Awww.... fuzzy things are dying..."
 
Fraggle Rock had a lot of real experiences. I would highly recommend the
reruns for kids, also any Fraggle video <except the cartoon series, it lost
something>.

I like Elmo. Elmo isn't real bright, but honest. After Ernie and Bert he
comes third of my favourate list.

The only "Grover as a Waiter" skit that sticks out in my mind is the one
where the Blue Guy wants a Hamburger.  They come in two sizes: small
(actually *very* small) or large (Totally Humongous).  Grover convinces the
man to buy the small hamburger, ("Singe an Itty-Bitty, Charlie!") but the
man gets upset when it arrives because it is so tiny.  Grover suggests
he order 4 or 5 of the small hamburgers, rather than a large one, but the
man insists ("Broil the Biggie, Charlie!).  Grover then heads into the
kitchen, where an ominous rumbling is heard.  With a loud cry, Grover
reappears, knocking the swinging doors apart, staggering under a burger
larger than the man's table.  Grover drops the burger on the table (which
collapses) and asks "Now, do you want the small ketchup bottle, or the
large ketchup bottle?"

	I was flipping around my cable stations today and ran across
what looked to be "The Muppets Take Manhattan."  Wrong.  It was
"Los Muppets Toman Nueva York."  A Spanish dubbing of the aforementioned
Manhattan movie.

	Anyway, the biggest funny for me (since I speak Spanish) was
listening to some of the great lines being slaughtered in translation.
Such as the interchange:

"Something from the grill, Jill?"
"No, meat makes me ill, Bill."       

	Was translated as:

"Jill, something from the barbecue?"
"No, bill, meat makes me sick."

	However, what REALLY got me was "Rana Renee."  That is the
Spanish equivalent for Kermit the Frog.  Renee?!?!?!?  Renee?!?!?!?
That is an awful substitute.  Yuck!

	However, they did get Miss Piggy's laugh right as well as
the executives "hmmmm-ing" all the time.  They even made Spanish
translations of all the songs.  I wish I could remember some of
the more inventive stuff, but the fast stuff, like the rat song,
was hard to understand.  "Together Again" was translated "Contigo
otra vez," and no, there aren't too many syllables in there.
When you sing  Spanish, if one word ends in a vowel, and the next
begins with a vowel, the whole shebang is strung together to make
one word.  So "Contigo otra vez" would be sung "Con-ti-gotra vez."
That means literally, "With You Another Time" or "With You Again."

	The marriage scene was really ridiculous, however, since
some of the great banter between Bert and Ernie, for example, was
completely lost.

	Still, it gave me a good feeling to see the Muppets on
foreign channels and that I could still understand the Spanish
fairly well. :)

Well, off the top of my head:  (dialog is approximate)

  * The blue man has ordered alphabet soup, and proceeds to check (!) his
  soup to make sure all the letters are there.  "A, B, C, D, ..."  He finds
  some letters missing.  "Waiter! Oh, waiter! ... (Grover responds) ...
  there's no 'j' in this soup!"  "Are you sure sir?"  "Yes, and I'm not going
  to eat alphabet soup without a 'j'!"  Grover heads off to the kitchen with
  the soup, and (as usual) you can hear him griping to Charlie.  Grover
  returns with another faulty soup (? not sure why), and the blue man keeps
  sending him back to the kitchen.  By the time Grover finally gets a
  REAL alphabet soup, the blue man won't eat it because it's turned cold.
  Yes, it's a classic skit, with lots of huffing and puffing by Grover and
  (I think) a collapse at the end.


How about the lessons taught by these skits, folks?  "If at first you don't
succeed..."  The value of hard work and persistence?  Seems to me our
country would be in far better shape if more adults followed Grover's example
(myself not excepted).

Uh oh, taboo, talking politics instead of muppets.  Give him fifty Fozzie
jokes.

> -verbum

While we're on the subject, how about a few SuperGrover skits?
"It's a BIRD! It's a PLANE! It's ..." aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh (crash)
(sighing tone) "super grover."

   It was a first season show, and the performers were still finding their
voices :-).  Fozzie was done by Frank Oz, but Dave Goelz does Gonzo - both
characters looked and sounded significantly different during the first
season than they have since then.

Does anyone out there watch the current Sesame Street? I assume some of you do.
What do you think of the newer aspects of the show? It seems a lot different
than when I was little (I'm 22). I general, I don't like some of the new
characters. For example, I almost HATE Elmo, probably because I don't like
hearing someone (is he supposed to be a baby?) talking in third person ALL THE
TIME. Also the female counterpart to Oscar acts like a baby. Is this the trend?
To have baby counterparts to all of our favorite traditional characters? If so
I don't like it. (I can barely remember what Oscar looks like!)
What do you all think?

I've been watching Sesame Street these days too, and in the past six
months or so, I've seen the pinball (cartoon, right?) at least seven or
eight times.  Whenever I watch it Sesame Street from now on, if I catch
the very beginning, I'll jot down the episode number and keep track of
which ones have classic stuff (muppet and otherwise) on it and what
skits they are.  Whenever I do manage to get that info, I'll post it. 
If anyone else manages to do that, then after a while a "classic skit
directory" could be developed. 

On new Sesame Street, they don't have half as much Spanish stuff as they
used to.  They might have one a week at most.  Also, some of the new
cartoons aren't as good, especially the computer generated ones.  (of
course I have a childhood  bias).  Over the last year, I've seen Super
Grover lots of times, but it's always the same one and it's a new one. 
Well, things change and so does Sesame Street.

Books: _The Art of the Muppets_ (pb, 1980; 1st ed.)
       _The Muppet Movie_ (adaptation)
       _Learn at Home the Sesame Street Way_ (hb, 1979; 1st ed.)

Stuff: Figurines of Miss Piggy, Rowlf, Fozzie, and Gonzo and Cookie Monster
       Pez dispensers of Gonzo, Piggy, Fozzie and Kermit <these are new,

       Blow-up baby Kermit plastic <like a smaller punching bag> but with a

In Toronto, there is (perhaps used to be as it's been more than a year since 
I've been) called "Muppet Stuff". It's been around since 1986. Back then they
specialized in Muppet paraphernalia but later changed and sold more Sesame St.
things (I think after Jim died). Does this exist anywhere else?

(BTW it's located at Harbourfront at the Queens Quay if anyone is interested)

From the store I purchased (or was given)
Two Kermit t-shirts.. "It's a Frog's Life" and "Tour de Frog"
a Kermit watch which I unfortunately lost :-(
a Cookie Monster old fashioned alarm clock
several Kermit keychains

When I was in NYC a couple years back I found some postcards with Muppet
characters on them. Come to think of it, I used to own the calendar from which
the pictures were taken. They were famous art pieces with Muppet characters
like Piggy as the Mona Lisa, Gonzo (?) as the "Thinker" and Kermit as "Little
 Boy Blue" (I have this one).
