The instruction card can be interesting too. I know, I sound like Bert.

And this can be everyone's favorite "Favorite" thread. :)

There was something about that O cartoon that really summed up the surreal quality of the Sesame Street's early years, which I think was great. The art and animation seemed to be very similar to the E cartoon about the Queen, the Eagle and the Easter Egg, although the E cartoon was a monologue...

I wonder if Oscar still has a tunnel now that it's the Mail-It-Shop. Maybe they filled that in during the remodeling process.

Yes, there was one where Maria kept trying to get her work done, but was constantly interrupted. Finally, she closed up the shop, locked the doors, took the phone off the hook, and thought she had all bases covered until Oscar comes up through the tunnel. At that point, all she could do was cry.

I do remember an old skit from the 70's where Oscar was in a giant garbage can in the middle of the street's playground, but I can't remember any details as to why.

The Joker. He's funny, obscure, and is the most individual with numerous variations.

I never really cared for Around The Corner or the characters that went with it. To me, it felt like they were trying to do two shows in one. It seems like some of the characters were redundant; for example, Benny the Bunny seemed too much like Oscar The Grouch. Some of my personal dislikes...

As far as I know though, no reason was ever given within the show for Mr. Handford's departure.

I'll have to watch it again. I didn't remember that the goat ate soap. I do remember that he ate the bowl. I think they just did that because goats have a reputation for eating anything. But, soap would be wicked. I was a little taken aback in one of the Hawaii episodes when Oscar ran to...

And mind your own business.

Be quiet, Mike.

If you have to start a sentence with "not that I mean to sound harsh", it's probably better to simply not say it.

On the first season Muppet Show DVD, the pop up Muppet Morsels count how many karate chops Miss Piggy gives in season one. They say it was 22, but it was actually 23. For some reason, they failed to count a karate chop she gave Fozzie during an opening theme song of one show.

Cold for New Orleans and that's a good thing; it keeps the hurricanes away.

And the song book that went with the Sesame Street 2 album had illustrations of Big Bird, Grover, and a green mouse singing it. This seemed strange since it went with the soundtrack of Herb, Ernie, and Bert. Yet, for some reason, many of the illustrated songs in the Sesame Street 2 song book...

Well, since they weren't necessarily shown in the order that they were produced (and seen on the DVD), it may have been the last episode shown of the first season, but I certainly don't remember. This special ending also invalidated one of the Muppet Morsels on the DVD, stating that every...

One time was at Luis and Maria's wedding.

I haven't seen the Dudley Moore episode, so I really can't comment in the comparison thread, but I thought the Kaye Ballard one was really entertaining and I love the special ending with no band (Apparently, they must have worked it out because they were in every future episode playing the same...
