Wouldn't it make sense to drop "Grouchland" from this topic? Post-movie, Frank had Seasons 30-31 of Sesame where he was still the dominant performer of his characters. Plus, in interviews where Eric Jacobson has discussed working on the movie, it's pretty clear that he was still in his 'apprentice stage' at this point. Mtw12054 (talk) 21:24, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

Eric's first public performance as Bert was in Episode 3807 (January 1999) and his first as Grover was in Episode 3822 (January 1999); David's first performance as Cookie was in Episode 3943 (February 1999)... so any Frank performances after those (aka during his transition away from the character and after someone else started doing them) would be considered a "return" performances to me... and Grouchland came out in October 1999. -- BradFraggle (talk) 21:34, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
In that case, a good chunk of Bert-Cookie-Grover segments from Season 31 would need to be added to that page, no? Mtw12054 (talk) 04:07, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
