    The Floating Face's Counting Sketches

    Sorry, I should have clarified. By 'they' I mean the creative team (Henson, Raposo, etc...). By 'no rules' I simply meant that since nothing like Sesame Street had really been done before, there was no template, or formula- they may have had more artistic freedom. But it does bring up an...
