That's why I always thought it was a mistake to exclude Ernie and Bert from sharing memories of Mr. Hooper after his death. If anyone would have had found memories of him, it would be them because of that Christmas. I particularly thought about this when Bert sang the line, "Though the years...

Thanks for remembering an often forgotten Sesame Street talent, Bear. :cool:

You know, if Sesame Workshop really wanted to be daring (which it doesn't), they could bring back BOTH Roosevvelt Franklin AND Kingston Livingston III to have them compare their different ways of life. There could be some conflict and misunderstandings because of their differences, but...

That was very funny. I've sometimes wondered why those two weren't reoccurring characters. They could have been great in several kinds of skits.

This old-timer remembers them, but not in a lot of detail. It's interesting that Sesame Street started out using DC Comics characters and The Electric Company wound up using Spider-Man from Marvel Comics.

Besides, wasn't Kingston one of the Around The Corner characters that all disappeared when that part ended?

I know we'll have a difference of opinion on this, but I really think Kingston was retired because he simply wasn't interesting enough. First of all, he looked too human. Secondly, they created so many restrictions on African American muppet characters that they were unable to give him a real...

When was he seen in detention?

Most people tend to remember Roosevelt Franklin in his classroom with the supporting cast of kids like Hard Headed Henry Harry, etc. Yet, we tend to forget that originally Roosevelt had a whole different format and supporting cast. Roosevelt would come out on the blank wall stage with his...

I was kind of surprised to find that there was actually information about Roosevelt Franklin on the Sesame Workshop website. I tend to think that modern Sesame Street wants to keep those characters completely invisible and forgotten. It's on their Newsletter archive and explains about that he...

I think he should come with one bird's foot. ;)

Those designs do look live puppy paws or clovers. What they don't look are any kind of club that I've ever seen. LOL

Thanks.

Where did Ernie get those sheep? :p :(

Apple Jacks, Apple Jacks Eight big vitamins, that's what it packs! Really delicious! Crunchy too! Kellogg's Apple Jacks! *********************************** Count Chocula cereal is coming your way! How 'bout a monster for breakfast today? ********************************** Sorry, you...

And then the exasperated postman says, "It figures." and he walks away.

Yeah, whenever Ernie couldn't sleep, Bert got the worst of it, but the Count turned the tables one time when he slept over.

So, did the street for Around The Corner have an actual name or was that supposed to be its name? For years, it was a mystery as to what street name was the other Sesame Street lamp post sign. Now, after Around The Corner has come and gone, I'm still not sure. LOL

Come to think of it, most decks have two Jokers and one usually looks slightly different from the other, such as missing a color or something. Also, in some decks, the Joker looks like a Joker, but in other decks he doesn't. I remember one deck of cards where the Joker was a ringmaster and...
