Sesame Street/Trivia: Difference between revisions

Line 4:

** Regarding Big Bird's encounter with Sally on Gordon's shoulders in the first episode, Big Bird is always quoted as saying, "Gosh! You're the tallest little girl I've ever seen!" (even Big Bird performer Caroll Spinney says this), however, in the actual episode, Big Bird's reaction is, "Dah! Oh my heavens! She's 8 feet tall!"

* [[Cast the Expert]]: Happens a lot for special episodes.

* [[Channel Hop]]: From National Educational Television to PBS, as NET was leaving the airwaves. Not a literal example, as the educational stations airing ''Sesame Street'' were the same in virtually every market.

** It was, however, literal in Britain (when the show moved from [[ITV]] to [[Channel 4]]).

* [[What Could Have Been]]: Caroll Spinney was very close to being aboard the Challenger as Big Bird. But the expenses of sending him and the puppet suit into space however were enough to keep him off the Shuttle and its explosive fate.

** The pilot episodes had the Muppets kept separate from the humans and the street, but since the kids payed more attention to the Muppets in test screenings, they were wisely integrated.
