    Quack Quack Queen Quinella

    I think this was from a very early episode and was one of those story skits with an adult reading a story from a book and the story being illustrated by muppets acting out the parts(I think). The only part I remember was an anything muppet who may have been Farley or a muppet who looked like him...

    The Woodsman And The Falling Tree

    These skits were pretty funny. It involved a guy with a helmet who yelled out "Timber"! The next scene shows a giant matchstick standing on end and falling down with the sound effects of a real tree. The final scene (as with all of them with similar parts) shows the same man looking puzzled and...

    The Horse And The Coffee

    This was cute but short lived. A cartoon involving a talking horse who walks into a cafe and asks for 3 coffees. Waiter: "But there's only one of you" Horse: "Just give me 3 coffees please" (waiter goes off camera and mumbles to himself while the horse is humming a tune)...

    The "White Dot" Skits

    These skits had a few variations to them but were all basically the same. There was no dialogue or humans or muppets. Just a bunch of neatly lined up white dots with a sound of music each time a dot appeared on the screen. One variation had all the dots lined up all in one "take" without a goof...

A group of his muppet pals i think were threatening not be friends with him any more if he continued getting into any further trouble but...

    Poor Solomon Grundy

    This had to be the most origianl cartoon idea during the older days of SS. Solomon Grundy was a kid who was washing himself in a bathtub. The unseen narrator was describing each body part he had washed on a daily basis along with a group of unseen kids repeating everything that was said by the...

    James Earl Jones Clips

    I know Mr. Jones had a few skits doing the alphabet and I think counting to either 10 or 20(with the letters and numbers appearing on the screen) Remember? At the time, I had no idea who he was. all I knew was that he looked really scary in some sort of way...I guess the way he had his eyes...

    The Dancing Kids and the "Rude" Man

    This was another funny one for a good laugh! A bunch of kids were inside of what appeared to be a classroom and they were dancing along with some lively music from an unseen source. An unseen man's voice would interrupt a few times over and say abruptly "STOP". The music would stop and all the...

    Farley and the Toybox

    A muppet who I think was Farley went to the Lost and Found to look for his lost toybox. The muppet in charge of the lost and found asked Farley for a description of the toybox. Everytime the he found a box that fit Farley's description, Farley added another feature that he did not say before...

    Margaret Hamilton on Sesame Street

    I need someone to set the record straight. did Margaret Hamilton make a guest appearance on SS and reprise her role as some sort of wicked witch like from The Wizard Of Oz? I thought I remember something involving her and David and a dispute with her broom that she wanted back which David had...

    Melvin The Moving Man

    Anyone remember this? It was one of those vintage SS cartoon shorts about Melvin The Moving Man...obviously all about the letter M. I forgot how it all went, but the funniest part of it was where the narrator said of Melvin "his moustache is made of macaroni"! Anyone remember the rest?

    Sam the Robot and the Baloney Sandwich

    I think this had to do with inside and outside. Sam was teaching I think some kids about in and out and was using a baloney sandwich that he kept taking "out" of his body and then putting it back "in". he repeated it a few times until it was over.

    Forward and Backward Skit

    Similar to the beginning and end skit, this one showed illustrations of forward and backward. It involved a man who I think did not want to follow the narrator's request to illustrate backward because he was always walking forward. The narrator then cleverly tells the man, "then we'll show you...

    Beginning and End Skit

    There was an unseen narrator illustrating the differeces between beginning and end. All I remember was a man eating a hot dog. Just before he started eating it, the man said "beginning". Then in fast motion, the man gobbled it down and the narrator appropriately says "end". I think there were...

    Sinister Sam Skits

    Set in the old west, these were cool muppet skits that involved Sinister Sam an alleged "outlaw" that everyone was alwyas so scared of but turned out to be nothing severe at all. One skit involved Sam coming into the bar and saying "I'm looking for Doc Holliday"(from the OK Corral?) Doc sees him...

    The Mother, The Son And The Glass Of Milk

    This was an early skit that didn't last too long(i think). It involved I think a mother who notices her son sitting at the kitchen table with a spilled glass of milk and naturally wants to know how it happened. The kid tells the mother various "lies" which were illustrated in a funny way. I...

    The Superball and the Number 3

    This was a pretty popular one. The superball that goes traveling thru different chutes, channels and other paths while an unseen boy counts to three each time the ball goes thru a certain trio of paths. Finally, the ball falls into (a meat grinder?) and we see a hand cupped under the spout while...
