Olivia played a starring role on "227." And one of the child actors was the youngest daughter on "The Cosby Show."

They used that song on the episode with Mr. Hooper's death. Brilliant way to help parents understand how to teach children perspective.

Two favorites: First: Ernie can't sleep. Bert tells him to count sheep. Ernie imagines each sheep jumping. Each time one jumps, it "Baaa's." Bert hears each "baa," and asks Ernie to count something else. So he counts fire engines. Of course, each one makes a loud siren! Third, Ernie...

I was born in 19870, and SS was a staple in our home. I would actually enjoy watching it through high school, and even at times into college. But once the format changed, I couldn't tollerate it anymore. You see, the old format spoke to both adults and children. The new format seemed to...

In the Christmas Eve episode, Hooper wishes Bob a merry Christmas. Bob responds by saying, "Happy Hanukkah." Was this because Hooper was Jewish, or was it a way to reach out to the Jewish viewers?

Anyone remember that song with Big Bird, R2D2 and C3PO?

Anyone rember this? I think it was a bunch of kids in a dance studio playing with hula hoops. Gordon was the only familiar grownup. As they played/ danced, they sang this: "One for the money Two for the show Three to get ready Four to go Five reach the sky Six way up high Seven...

Rudy Huxtable (little girl) from the Cosby Show... Keshia Knight Pullam was once a regular on SS. She went on to play Rudy Huxtable on the Cosby Show. Check out this linK: http://www.tvland.com/nickatnite/cosby_show/actors/rudy.jhtml

Let me take a crack: Pawns: anything muppets Castles: Count Horses: Grover/ Elmo (on a horse) Bishops: Ernie/ Bert Queen: Kermit (in a wig) King: Big Bird

Jessica, The brilliance of SS is that it speaks on two levels. It is meant to be watchable by adults who are in the room. A little child most likely won't understand the inuendos (sp?). But you will! I must say, however, that SS used to be much better at this. I find now that the shows...

Great episode. A lady muppet goes into a coat store looking for a blue fur coat. Store guy first gives her a blue not furry coat. Then he gives her a furry not blue coat. Then she spots Cookie Monster, throws him over her shoulder, and says "perfect, put it on my bill" (or something like...

When she gets to those cows, (I saw 11 cows..... and they said '??????????????) what do they say? I could never figure it out!

And then there's the ice crean one, where Ernie tries to make Bert ice cream by putting cream in a bowl of ice.

It has ended because I bought it! But we should all keep our eyes on e-bay for this stuff.
