    Amusing And Provocative To Kids

    I always had a passion for SS as a kid and loved it when they showed 2 back to back episodes on some days. At the same time, I also took the meaning of certain skits differently than others and depending on how the skit went, sometimes I would end up feeling somewhat aggravated by the result...

    The 3 Muppets And The Lemonade

    I remember this skit that involved 3 or 4 muppets each one of them tried to sell something on their own. One tried to sell lemons alone, the other tried to sell water alone, and the other tried to sell sugar alone. None of them sold anything alone until they all decided to cooperate and put all...

    Mr. Macintosh And Willy The Hot Dog Man

    I somehow feel that Mr. Macintosh( the fruit salesman) and Willy the hot dog man were somewhat unfairly overlooked. Did they ever have full names? What was Willy's last name? Did Mr. Macintosh have a first name? I just bought Christmas Eve On SS and saw that Mr. Macintosh had a small part at the...

    The Square And The Triangle Skit

    Anyone remember this skit? I think it had a narrator describing a triangle who was dancing around and what its purposes were. Then along came a square and they both started talking to each other about how different each of them were.(when the square entered and exited the skit, it had some nice...

    A Dozen Eggs And A Cookie

    Another part of that Ernie segment has him noticing that there was a small bite taken out of one of the cookies before he put it in the egg carton and saying in a very low voice "this one has a bite taken out of it...it was delicious"!

    2 Hands Sharing A Piece Of Cake

    This one was real cool...2 gloved hands pass by a plate with a piece of devils food cake(it looked real tempting too). The both hands wanted it but didn't know what to do. An unseen woman's voice then said something like "wait a minute(the hands start looking to see where the voice was coming...

    A Dozen Eggs And A Cookie

    There was a skit involving an egg carton and a set of "hands" filling it up with eggs. A different set of hands(I think) put either a cracker or cookie in one of the compartments of the egg carton. It was eventually removed and replaced with an egg. After the skit was over, Ernie(without Bert)...

    Hooray for the Octopus 1 Man Band

    This was always a funny one with me. A cartoon in which each arm of an octopus played a different musical instrument while a narrator described each one...does anyone remember the dialogue for this other than "Hooray for the octopus one man band"? the sequence repeated itself after the first...

    Bill Cosby Reciting The Alphabet

    If we looked forward to all the Bill Cosby skits, then this was one for the books! As was the same for when he counted to 20, it was a split screen with Bill and a look-alike(were they both Bill?) Of course, there had to be some comedy here and there before it was done. During the part where...

    "J Jump" Song

    This was one of those songs that can really stick to your mind over the years. And like many other songs, this one differed slightly on TV as opposed to the version heard on the record. The record version had a poem recited by Big Bird before the song which i believe was absent from the version...

    The Story Of The Letter A

    This one was pretty popular but unfortunately, just died out after a while. It was cartoon featuring a woman looking like a witch telling 2 kids a story using the letter A. I'm sure someone can probably refrsh me on the whole dialogue, but it involved an Archer and an Ant. At the end, the lady...

    The "Fireman" Song

    I used to like the skit with real firemen and actual clips of firemen fighting fires while the guy was singing "fireman, he's fighting the fire, the fireman". Then the end the skit was sung something like this, "The fire's out..we're going back to the firehouse". I know that there were more...

    Maria, David and Bob Skit

    I remember this funny skit where David and Bob were dresssed as waiters and I think Maria was there boss. The skit involved knowing which of the 2 doors behind them was the entrance and which was the exit. Maria invented a song so they would both know which was which. Bob caught on right away...

    The Talking Tree And The Little Boy

    It was somewhat hard to understand at the time, but I guess we had to use our imagination. I remember this kid walking in the woods and a tree was actually talking to him although all you heard was a voice(this was not a cartoon). The "tree" was teaching the kid the difference between here and...

    Roosevelt Franklin's Elemetary School Song

    Does anyone remember how the song went during the intro of Roosevelt Franklin's Elementary School skits? It was what appeared to be a double exposure picture of a school in the background with a the singing muppets within the same pic. The same song with similar lyrics was sung at the conclusion...

    Superman Clip

    OK ,Pink Panther responder, you got me to touch on another subject thanks to your link. Superman was talking about the letter "S". He said "it not only stands for Superman but for alot of other words too" I think he used the words "safety, sinking and sand". As the skit ended, he said "so the...
