I still fuming over here at the exclusion of Little Jerry
I don't mind it that much. Those episodes were originally included in the episodes that Sesame Workshop chose to have released. I don't think Sesame Workshop chose those episodes just because some of them have the same sketches (and quite a few episodes had the same sketches sown twice). I read that the first Electric Company set had a few sketches repeated within the episodes chosen for inclusion, and I read at Wikipedia's page for The Electric Company that some of the episodes on volume two were cut, stating that most of the cut sketches were already on volume one, speculating that Sesame Workshop didn't want to repeat many sketches (but I don't recall any citations on that). I don't know if anyhting was replaced on that set.Although I love the box set, I wish they put more clips on it!
While I agree with the CTW regarding repetition is the key to education, they really didn't need to rrepeat so many clips throughout each dvd! They could've included so many many more great clips that haven't seen the light of day in years!
Hopefully they'll get it right for the next installment.
Lol yeah I noticed that too, lol.MaxeyBoy said:plus if you listen closely on the episode where david leads a conga-line/follow the leader type thing and big bird gets his beak in his face david says -
"im gonna kill you".
Proof positive that it was NOT an "urban legend":I must point out something. I never said that the Counter of Numbers sketch included that ending in the review. Phillip added that when he edited it. I'm of the belief that that ending is urban legend, so I didn't mention it as being edited.

Well for a purely Muppet fan, there's a lot of charming early Kermit footage. And the first Old School DVD has a bonus feature featuring Rowlf and Kermit sort of pitching the show, which is quite funny, lol.But are there many Muppet scenes a grown-up who's never seen the original version on Sesame Street can enjoy? Or does the set's charm lie in the nostalgia? For the record, I did enjoy Follow that Bird, but not so much the Elmo movie...
