I think it would be a good idea to have a scond thread about the old school DVD's, just about questions reguarding various segments and skits. One seppearte from the "your thoughts" thread, so it doesn't get bogged down by questions, instead of reviews.

As a result, I'd like to start it off.

In the pilot film, what exactly was that "Jazzy triangle" skit? Was it Scanimation? Some sort of early computer animation or something? It doesn't look like drawn animation. It also looks like it could be some sort of Shadow puppetry. Any details on it?

Secondly, this was pretty much on the Old School volume 1 promo on the first disk. There is a "sesame Street was a production of" Group shot of what looked like Little Jerry's Monotones, or the Hippies singing Goodmorning Starshine. Was this used on any episodes?

That still was from the end of the first episode.
