Maxwell Jessop – Hello, class. It‘s me, that “How To” guy, Max Jessop! I’m subbing for Ryan who is taking off for Thanksgiving break… Oh, yeah.Only the teachers get Thanksgiving break this year. Sorry, I don’t make the rules. But I do give you the lesson. And I’m going let you off easy this week…
Ryan Dosier – Welcome back to class, class! No quiz again this week, because my cousin’s hamster took the papers… he didn’t eat them, but instead started his own Muppetology course next door. Don’t fall for it. He isn’t licensed! …And obviously I am, if anyone asks. Anyway, let’s continue our lecture on Muppet Monster…
Ryan Dosier – Oh, finally! Now you students show up to class! I’ve been here for months teaching to an empty classroom. Where have you been?! What? What’s that? The classroom door has been locked for the entire semester? …The janitor is trying to sabotage me again! For the last time, Hugh, I did NOT…

Nicholas Napoli – Welcome back, class! Today we pick up our lecture on new Muppets at Christmas 1996 and Muppets Tonight, where the Muppet family got that much larger instantly and Clifford became one of the most despised Muppets. As a kid and even to this day as an adult I just cannot understand why Kermit…
Greetings, students! Did you have a nice spring break? Good… because that’s what I called these past few weeks where I forgot I had this class to teach. In the continuing of my laziness, today in Muppetology 101 we have a guest professor, Nicholas Napoli, here to teach you today. Nicholas has a pair of…
Ryan Dosier – We’re back on the Street this week! Sesame Street has had its share of recasts for major characters on the show, and today we’re looking at various characters who have become extremely popular, but have also gone through numerous recasts throughout the years. Characters like Elmo, Telly Monster, and more did not…
Ryan Dosier – Another week, another class lecture about the wonder of the Muppets! Today we’re starting our first gear shift from the world of The Muppet Show and into the sunniest place on earth: Sesame Street.
