    Oscar’s “NO” machine

    Here’s a sketch that I remember from a long time ago. Not sure if it was from the 70’s or 80’s, and I don’t even recall who was in it besides Oscar. I know that Oscar was showing his latest invention: a machine that answered questions. One of the adults (a guy, I believe) asked, “Isn’t it a...

    Kermit's W vs B vs. R lectures

    I got a smile out of Cookie Monster’s karate chopping the R, his reaction to Kermit’s threat, his scrunching Kermit up with head pats, and his fixing the R. In fact, the only part of that sketch that didn’t thrill me was the ending lines. I think the writers could have come up with something...

    Quit blowing on my neck!

    I know. But I saw this sketch when I was a teenager. Back then, I didn’t keep close track of seasons of shows or of years when things took place.

    I wish I knew!

    Quit blowing on my neck!

    Okay, this is a pretty silly sketch, even for Sesame Street. But that’s what I like about it. Anyway, my memories of it are vague, so any corrections would be appreciated. I know the sketch involves Uncle Wally and two other people—Bob and Olivia, if I remember correctly. Uncle Wally sneaks up...

    Weakest Muppet Singers?

    Wayne's singing was usually good, but Wanda's didn't sound that musical to me. Sorry, Wanda. :(

    Jogging Song

    Keep your fingers crossed. Maybe Sesame Workshop will post it in their video section one day.

    Jogging Song

    I have been searching and searching for a video of this song, with no luck. But I'm hoping someone will at least remember the title. It's a live-action film that shows a bunch of people jogging while voices sing in the background. But what I'll always remember is seeing Oscar's feet sticking...

    Funniest Wackiest Zaniest Sesame Sketches

    It might be. It's been so long ago, I'm not sure exactly what Big Bird had made the signs for.

    Funniest Wackiest Zaniest Sesame Sketches

    I remember a sketch where Big Bird has painted something (not sure what) and makes a WET PAINT sign for it. Since the paint on the sign is wet, he makes a WET PAINT sign for it as well. But the paint on that sign is wet, so he makes a WET PAINT sign for it, and so on until one of the adults...

    Episodes that Have Stuck with You

    I'll never forget when Oscar invented a formula that was supposed to turn anyone who drank it into a grouch. Not surprisingly, no one was willing to try it. But then one of the adults told Oscar, "If you drink that stuff, you'll get grouchier. You'll be a super grouch!" Thrilled with the idea...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    My dream last night was about Bert and Ernie. In it, they decided to call an old friend of theirs (not a Muppet but a human actor—I don’t know who). It turned out that the friend had a new job: renting alligators (I have no idea for what purpose). So they rented some. I’m sure it was Ernie who...

    Funniest Fraggle Rock Lines.

    Little things we've noticed

    Look at this bit starring Ernie and Lefty. At 1:16, Ernie’s earmuffs appear to have slipped.

    Want to buy a snowman, Ernie?

    LOL, thanks, fuzzygobo! A new twist on Lefty’s pricing technique. But, Ernie, I wouldn’t buy those liquid assets if I were you. They’d just evaporate.

    The corny joke thread

    If you found a $20 bill in every pocket of your coat, what would you have? Somebody else’s coat.

    I was searching for the New Mexico episodes myself. :sympathy: I did find a song from the New Mexico visit, though.
