Not sure exactly why I'm listening to the Bee Gees, but Jive Talking is a really good song. That bass line is all kinds of groovy.

Interesting thing is, while Little Jerry's outfits changed throughout the years, I don't recall seeing Chrissy in an outfit other than his yellow shirt, except in the song "Raise Your Hand." But Chrissy's voice is so flexible…it's suitable for various subgenres of music…just compare "Count It...

I agree with that. To me, as the years went on, their sound seemed to go backwards in time, not forwards. Remember the 1988 episode where Little Jerry & the Monotones came to Sesame Street? You'd think Gina, who was 17 or 18 years old at the time, would be into an MTV-molded, snarling Billy Idol...

So after waiting a month, I finally took the R and 1 trains up to Lincoln Center, where the exhibit is located. And it completely lived up to my very high expectations as a lifelong fan of Sesame Street. Everything was meticulously displayed, from the Alligator King and Martian Beauty animation...

That reminds me of a skit I read about in the SS Unpaved book where Gordon puts Big Bird in charge of watching his new painting, and the Bird goes overboard by putting a WET PAINT sign (or a series of signs) directly on it, thus smearing the paint and ruining the artwork. Is this the sketch...

Not only does this segment teach Spanish, it also teaches addition! Groovy segment that probably no one has seen before…looks like it's from 1972 or 1973. I wonder who'd voicing the little girl here? It doesn't sound like Fran Brill, Marilyn Sokol, or Sonia Manzano.

I will continue posting outlines for a while. Feel free to message me privately about my outlines so that we don't take up space on this thread. And yes, I do like writing for Oscar and the Count, but there's something about Cookie Monster that is very endearing too. :insatiable: Especially in...

Some rare clips and street stories from this guy! Among them: New Mexico scenes (1975), Maria wants a raise (1981), and the much-discussed "Oscar becomes a prince!" http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6hwk5F3wPIMTWl-xg5OenQ

Currently listening to some 1980s music, including Night Ranger's "Sister Christian," "Robert Palmer's "Addicted to Love," and Huey Lewis's "Hip to Be Square." It reminds me of that classic SS cartoon, featured in the Rock and Roll video! The parody sounds a little TOO much like the...

Wow…look at all the cobwebs on this thread. Time to pull this out of the attic. First, this grouping is awesome. You rarely saw Kermit interacting with Sesame monsters this late into the show's run. The twist is absolutely hysterical. I just about bust my guts laughing. "Here, Herry, have a...

My first memory of seeing one of Fran's characters was when I watched the video I'm Glad I'm Me. It had Prairie Dawn's face pageant sketch in it. I grew up watching Zoe and Prairie a lot on SS, as they were featured prominently in the mid-1990s. I will definitely miss hearing Zoe's laugh, and...
