Here’s a sketch that I remember from a long time ago. Not sure if it was from the 70’s or 80’s, and I don’t even recall who was in it besides Oscar. I know that Oscar was showing his latest invention: a machine that answered questions. One of the adults (a guy, I believe) asked, “Isn’t it a...

Okay, this is a pretty silly sketch, even for Sesame Street. But that’s what I like about it. Anyway, my memories of it are vague, so any corrections would be appreciated. I know the sketch involves Uncle Wally and two other people—Bob and Olivia, if I remember correctly. Uncle Wally sneaks up...

I have been searching and searching for a video of this song, with no luck. But I'm hoping someone will at least remember the title. It's a live-action film that shows a bunch of people jogging while voices sing in the background. But what I'll always remember is seeing Oscar's feet sticking...

Does anyone remember seeing this in English?

I seem to recall a sketch, from the 197o’s or 1980’s, that was made for a pledge drive. In it, Kermit was telling viewers the prices of various pieces of equipment needed to make Sesame Street happen (such as the cameras). As Kermit talked about each piece, Cookie Monster ate it! :insatiable:

I remember a sketch from many years ago, starring Grover and Kermit. As I recall, though, Kermit wasn’t seen at all; I only heard his voice. He said something like this: “And now Grover is going to show us ‘near’ and ‘far’ on his ice skates!” Grover skated close to the camera (or was he...

I seem to recall a sketch where Oscar was in his can, with the lid closed, and was saying he had just taken a “grease shower.” Then soapsuds started to bubble out of his can as he exclaimed, “Hey, what’s this? Soapsuds? Clean soapsuds? Help! Help, I’m gettin’ clean!” That one always made me...

Please, PLEASE, can someone help me with this one? I’ve been racking my brains trying to remember what happened in these little fillers! You may recall that sometimes between segments, the screen would go from completely black to some other color in a delightfully ridiculous way, like in this...

Back in the 90's, Sesame Street had a series of segments that Muppet Wiki described as "chants" and "Gregorian." Each one would show a letter of the alphabet (capital, then lowercase, then both) against a background that looked like an ancient piece of art—a tapestry, for instance. As the...

Well, here it is the first of December, so I thought I'd start this thread: Suppose you and the Muppets were having one of those "Secret Santa" gift exchanges? What do you think a Muppet who drew your name might give you? And what if you drew a certain Muppet's name—what might you give? I think...

I saw that "Classic Sesame Street" has a thread called "Little Things We've Noticed." Well, how about one for "Classic Muppets"? Here's one for a starter: the UK bit on the Carol Channing episode of the Muppet Show. Floyd, on guitar, and Beauregard, on harmonica, play "Wave" for some...

I have rather vague memories of a sketch where Kermit watched Grover touching his toes with his nose (or was it touching his nose with his toes?) five times. Kermit then decided to try it, though Grover warned against it. "This is a monster exercise!" But Kermit tried anyway and wound up hurting...

Does anyone remember a piece where Maria and Linda were sewing a quilt? When they held it up, they showed that it had a patchwork Q on it. Then Maria said, "Q, quilt," and Linda taught the signs for Q and "quilt." This was one of my favorite pieces about the letter Q. I wonder whatever became...

Does anyone remember when Oscar invented a formula that was supposed to turn anyone who drank it into a grouch? Then someone told Oscar, "If you drink that stuff, you'll get grouchier. You'll be a super grouch!" Thrilled with the idea, Oscar drank the potion—but he became super nice! Eventually...

I seem to recall a sketch with two men. One of them was juggling apples and a salt shaker. He even managed to sprinkle salt on an apple and take a bite while juggling. He didn’t like the taste, though, and the other guy said, “I told you not to put salt on an apple.”

I found this Cookie Monster sketch in Hebrew. Does anyone remember seeing it in English? According to Muppet Wiki, a Muppet man was using feathers and rocks to show the difference between light and heavy. During the lecture, Cookie Monster came along and ate the rocks, thinking they were...

Has anyone looked up "muppet" on the site tvaddicts.tv? My search for that word turned up two results. The first was a set of DVDs supposedly for all five seasons of the Muppet Show. The cover looked more like "Muppets from Space," though. The other result was "The Best of the Muppet Babies on...

Urgent prayers are needed for Chris, who is currently living New Mexico. Chris is a wonderful guy--caring, honest, has a great sense of humor, and stands up for what he believes in. He's fortyish, like me. I've told you about him in the past--how in January 2009 he fell down, had to go to the...
