No, I just threw the "Reunited" quote in for fun, it has nothing to do with the skit. The only musical accompaniment was Joe's piano which reflects the characters' moods, happy one moment, sad the next, angry, scary, the whole nine yards. In the book version of the skit, the girl finds her...

I hope you are finding peace with your Dad's passing. It is never easy when we try to come to grips with our own mortality. I know we will find peace when we die. God calls us back home, to be with Him for eternity. But it still doesn't ease the pain of losing a loved one. I've been to more...

Yes, this skit does exist, and it is one of my most treasured Sesame memories ever. Hopefully sometime it will see the light of day again. Here's the lowdown: Part One: A boy Muppet (voiced by Jim) is happy because he has a bag full of jelly beans (and jelly beans are the greatest!). He...

my condolences I'm sorry to hear about your father. I hope he passed peacefully at least. Last year my grandmother died at age 96, and one of my favorite memories of her, she used to watch Sesame Street with me when I was little. Remember the clip of Ernie telling us how special we are? Run...

Happy Boithday Many happy returns, and don't let Clarence get too close to your cake!;)

Little Jerry, pre-Monotones This will knock your socks off. Way back in the first season, there was a protoype of the Monotones. Bob is seen with a bunch of hippie Muppets, and he's actually putting Jerry's orange hair on top of his pointy green head. Bob walks off, the lights dim, and they...

I used to get razzed in third grade for still watching Sesame Street. By age eight most of my other classmates have long since outgrown it. Ironically enough, it was considered cool to catch the Muppet Show, which debuted at the same time (1976). So watching Kermit on CBS was cool according...

Disney animators left a truly endearing legacy, just like the crew at Warner Brothers. They must be creating some amazing stuff in heaven now. I hope one of the Nine Old Men's disciples, Don Bluth, comes back with some quality work soon, pick up the mantle, and keep the standard of excellence...

let's see the light Hey man. I'm celebrating my 40th birthday on Monday by going to the eye doctor too. It looks like I'll need bifocals- I can see and drive okay, but need stronger glasses for reading. It's a sign of getting older, just like my hair is rapidly turning gray, but nothing to...

my baggage I've had insulin-dependent diabetes since I was 21, and when I was first diagnosed with it it was so severe I nearly died from it. For nearly 20 years I've been taking very good care of myself, and I am so grateful my eyes, kidneys, and feet (the three most vulnerable parts to a...

My top 10 Here we go, counting down to Number One... 10. "Mad!" Little Jerry and the Monotones- wonderful paean to angry hippie Muppets everywhere. 9. "Octopus's Garden" It wasn't until later I found out this was actually a Beatles song. 8. "Up Up and Away" Again, years later when I...

Heyyyyy S bay-beeeee! In this short clip, Grover was with a kid (whose name totally escapes me) and they determine the letter in question is an S. (Fulfilling CTW's cirriculum requirement of "Symbolic Representation"). Grover slaps the S on the back (who knew letters had backs?) and knocks it...

Hey buddy. With a thread like this, you'll be giving people a mental workout to try to pick ten. I know there are a lot of others I could've included, such as whole series, like the painter clips, the baker clips, anything that came from the Hubley studios, etc. But then you might never be...

My fave raves This is not an easy task, and out of the thousands to choose from, it's hard to narrow down to ten. But here goes: 1. The same/different clip performed by the Mummenshanz, posted the other day on youtube. A thousand thanks, Nanto! 2. The boy, the girl, and the jellybeans...

maybe I'm color blind I've seen many of the same clips wher Green Grover (Fuzzyface) shows up. 1. Kermit's lecture on "In", also featuring the ultra-rare Fred the Dragon. 2. Baker #5, showing his face in the window. 3. A group of monsters saying "C" 4. Same monsters saying "A" 5. Green...

For Sesameguy Hi Sesameguy! Until someone posts this clips on youtube, or includes it on a DVD box set, here's a synopsis of that clip with David and Maria's two-headed monster dream sequence (I always love the transitions, where the camera gradually loses focus and harps play): David (in...

Ernie and Bert's apartment: The Total Makeover I noticed a drastic change in Ernie and Bert's apartment too. In Season One, there was a trunk behind them with a table lamp on top, and a track light hanging directly over it. Towards the left, there was a door that presumably led to the kitchen...

Here it is, to the best of my knowledge: Rinky dink dink Three men in a sink The Butcher, The Baker, and Freddie the Fink Fred gave a tug And pulled out the plug And I think that the sink will soon sink. MF: "Freddie, you're a real fink!" SH: "I know, I know". Lee Chamberlin as...

Back in the 70's, riding the New York Subway was quite an adventure (Still is!). It was dirty, crowded and noisy, and you could lose your purse, or at least get your toes stepped on. People were rude and pushy (Still are!), more often than not you had to stand (Still do!). And during Rush Hour...

other physical feats Poor Jim also had to deal with the indignity in the skit with Bob and Kermit with the frog, as the frog pees on his head. There was also a skit with Ernie throwing objects over a wall to hear what kind of sounds they made when they hit the ground. Fiirst a rubber ball...
