Has anyone seen the Oscar appearance on Flip Wilson? I'm guessing it was the same episode with Big Bird, because both are credited at the end of the half-hour shortened version of that episode, usually on TV Land. All I know, this was Oscar's first appearance as being green -- even before the making of Sesame's second season.
