How can they make a Sesame Street Spoofs dvd with out the "Alphabet Chats"? I've been waiting for years for them to be resurrected from oblivion, & they're not even mentioned?

I used to love the sketches when Bob would sing; here are some that I remember fondly, & hope that they will appear in an "Old School" box set someday. 1) In the 70's, I loved the clips of Bob singing in the park with a bunch of kids in the wintertime! The songs that I remember him singing are...

It wasn't widely seen (the episode usually cut off after the boy turns to the camera & says "gasp"), but at the end of that sketch the "Tablecloth Girl" kisses the boy muppet, & giggles as he runs away screaming!

No doubt about it, its "Ah, ah, ah, ah!"

I remember that episode (albeit only bits and pieces), & yes it was very scary! What really stuck with me was when the witch threatened to turn the people of SS into things (David into a basketball, Big Bird into a feather duster, etc), & remembering that there was nothing nice or funny about...

This is a great link, hollandj! Thanks!

There were 3 skits that were sad to me: 1) This is a classic clip. Bert & Ernie fight over a cookie & threaten to breakup as room-mates. In an attempt to mediate, Maria leads Ernie & Bert both on a mental journey of what their lives would be like apart. Ernie moves out west & becomes a cowboy...

I may be wrong, but I actually think Bert began collecting bottle caps & progressed to paper clips. A bit of SS trivia: What was bert's prize bottle cap, & from what size bottle? Answer: The bottle cap from a twelve ounce bottle of "Figgy Fizz". I guess once Bert found that cap, he felt...

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...

I had an Ernie & a Count handpuppet, my cousin had Bert & Roosevelt Franklin!

Yes, I remember all of those clips, especially the wallpaper clip (and being claustrophobic, that particular clip made me panicky)! Although I've said it in another thread, the clip that bothered me as a kid was "Max & His Axe", where an overzealous lumberjack is transformed into a tree for...

I remember hearing that also! I can recall an article (possibly the same as the one mentioned above) wherein during one of Northern's rampages, he was found on a front lawn, eating the grass! I don't remember any more of the details or what treatment he was ungergoing. I also remember that...

I believe that sketch was entitled "What Will Happen Next?". If I'm not mistaken, Gordon was a narrator (of sorts), & Maria was once again playing her now infamous "Charlie Chaplin" character. I believe Gordon was providing all the trials inflicted upon Maria (such as the banana peel), & Maria...

Has there been any info posted about what (if any) special features this box set will contain? Although I'd still buy it if it didn't, I'd love to know.
