    What's your favorite letter segment?

    There were a lot of letter segments that had a character rattle off a ton of words that began with the particular letter the segment was focusing on. Like that h one that has been mentioned before where the one guy keeps annoying the other guy by popping up all around him and saying h words...

    How's the weather where you are?

    Nah 85 isn't quite PERFECT. Perfect is what it is today in Philadelphia- 74! :) And so nice after such an extended pre summer heat wave last week. I just posted about water sketches at a classic sesame street thread and I think now I'll go outside and water my plants. And maybe tackle mowing...

    Your Favorite Cartoons on Sesame Street

    An SS cartoon that I liked very much was about water. A voice of a man narrates it. He was talking about all the things you can do with water like drink it and swim in it. When he mentioned about water's bathing use, it showed an elephant showering and then drying off with a towel. I remember it...

    Favorite Animal Films

    I was pretty sure she said "Roadrunner" at the beginning of the segment and before her started to run again the second time. The music plays fast during each of his sprints. And yeah that does sound like Maria. Did she also say "Peacock" at the beginning of the peacock film? Sounds like it could...

    Favorite Kermit Moments

    I've seen the Ernie and Bert skit where Ernie does that sketch on the screen drawn with a blue line around Bert's face mentioned before at MC. But I just thought of one with Kermit. I can't remember for sure what sketches Kermit was drawing on the screen with a blue line but I think it might...

    Favorite Animal Films

    I liked the one with the roadrunner on the desert. A woman at the beginning says, "Roadrunner." Then a roadrunner runs quickly with fast paced music accompanying it. After the bird stops, the woman repeats, "Roadrunner" and the bird takes off again. I had mixed emotions about this film as a...

    A couple of skits with anything muppets

    And a couple more skits with anything muppets Remember the skit with anything muppets where they made lemonade? One muppet had water, but all the other muppets walking by didn't want any. Another muppet (that fairly frequent girl muppet, I think, who also appeared in the "St. Ives" skit. Her...

    Favorite Celebrities

    I also had a crush on Lizzie Montgomery, D'Snowth. But the actress from tv sitcoms that I had the biggest crush on was Priscilla Barnes from Three's Company (played Terri Alden the nurse). Suzanne Sommers was indeed very attractive, but Priscilla I liked even better. But my favorite television...

    Favorite Sleep Sketches

    I remember seeing that one several times in the early to mid 70's. I remember that last line, "I also like to sleep." The preceding line was something like, "I like to read. And eat." And it was some nice soft background music at the close. I rather enjoyed all of the music throughout. Other...

    Herbert Birdsfoot

    Charlie, that's right! I just couldn't think of his name but knew that delivery guy kept referring to him by some name. Also, thanks for refreshing me on what the items delivered actually were. And I hadn't recalled that the delivery guy ended up enjoying what Herb wanted him to do. It was so...

    Incompatable dvd

    Brand is RCA. The number on the back says DRC 105 NA. And it says Class 1 laser product. Don't have a second dvd player. ( I could try it on my brother's dvd player one of these weekends and if it works just have a "Jeffersons" marathon over there! ) Thanks very much, TA.

    Herbert Birdsfoot

    I don't see it in any of those threads listed below. I had looked through all the Herbert threads I could find yesterday too before I posted this. Daffyfan said it was mentioned before but I haven't come across it. It might have been brought up at a different thread. Any additional details on...

    David opening door after door

    Ah okay, been so long since I saw it. Was pretty little so I'll bet the reason I was thinking a radio is because when he went out the last door and they played music I, as a very young child, didn't make the connection that it was just closing skit background music. Heh heh, I remember when I...

    Incompatable dvd

    About a week ago I started to watch shows on dvd from "The Jeffersons" complete 3rd season. It comes in 3 discs and the strange thing is one disc works but the other two kept saying, "Incompatable disc. The disc is incompatable with the player." First time that ever happened to me. I emailed...

    David opening door after door

    I don't think I saw that one but it sounds like a good one. And I just read the posts from that other thread you posted, mikebennidict. And a couple of other short threads about David or David and Maria, too. That one thread I did about David and Maria eating spaghetti is probably my favorite...

    Favorite Cookie Monster Moments

    I was trying to think whether Cookie Monster or Ernie owned that device and thought it was probably Ernie since he was upset at the end of the skit when CM ate the cookies. But I guess it was because the cookies were Ernie's and just the device was CM's. And that is just fascinating, Sesame...

    Professor Hastings

    Just as I liked all of the SS humans, I liked all of the SS muppets too (pre Elmo that is) including Professor Hastings. The way Professor Hastings says "umpire" as he is drifting off to sleep again was one of my favorite of his moments. The other moment of his that tickled me was in the...

    Favorite Cookie Monster Moments

    Remember the one with Cookie Monster and Ernie where Ernie had some cookies in some kind of container (maybe a brown paper bag). And I think Ernie has a device that he says can count cookies. He demonstrates to Cookie Monster how if he points it at the cookies it will make a ringing sound like a...

    Two Questions for Ziffel

    Maybe it would be helpful to look at some of the threads in Classic Sesame Street, especially the ones that have a very large number of posts. Some examples would be "favorite cartoons", "favorite Bert and Ernie sketches", "favorite Grover sketch" (also for Kermit,Cookie Monster, etc.), "Sesame...

    Micheal Jackson Not Guilty

    Always so cool to see a cardinal too! I only see a cardinal once in a blue moon (well actually in a green tree). And it's usually somewhat far from the window. But these TWO bluejays yesterday were just inches away! Alright, I see this thread is now for the birds! (Boy with jokes like these I...
