celebrity ABC's Bill Cosby Madeline Kahn Jim Nabors Lena Horne (with a bunch of Muppets) Dantecat- don't ask me what years they were. Let's just narrow it down to the late 20th Century, okay? :D

one more Early in South Park's history, on the episode where Ike is going to get circumcized, you can hear him yell out "COOKIE MONSTER!"

O.C. Album If you notice on ebay, the Original Cast Album was available with at least three different covers. #1 Group shot of the adults plus Big Bird. A few kids are seen sitting on the side. #2 The adults and a number of kids standing on the front steps, and Big Bird is off to the...

it was nineteen-seventy-something. Take a guess. You stand a chance at being close. :smirk:

This really happened, I couldn't make it up if I tried! Biff and Sully were in Hooper's Store, and Biff orders a glass of chocolate milk. Too cheap to get two, Biff decides he and Sully will share the glass. Mr. Hooper actually takes a magic marker and draws a line around the middle of the...

10 Here's how it goes: First a 10 appears on the screen. Then with an effect that looks like dropping a pebble into a pool of still water, the 10 dissolves and forms a spinning ring. Then Nobody appears in the middle of the ring. "Now then, a count of ten!" (The sight of him and the sound...

the fate of the garbage Before they had stricter environmental laws, the garbage was probably dumped at this nice little landfill on the tip of Staten Island. Of course back then-1970- an alarming number of companies were still taking barges of garbage, oil drums, toxic waste, what have you...

thank you sesamemike!!!! Holy cow, I thought I was the only one old enough to remember this one (they actually ran it as late as 1982). You described it to a T! This is definitely one for the time capsule- penny gumballs and ice cream for a dime! (And even though they don't show it, soda in...

saying goodbye to Jim I only have the faintest memory of this, but it's so true to Jim's character to embrace the world with that childlike innocence and sense of wonder. Hard to believe come May it will be 15 years since Jim left us, but I'm very much in awe of how he managed to influence...

That's 10! Yes, what you remember is actualy a Muppet character called Nobody. He actually appeared once in the late 60's on the Mike Douglas Show in a skit called "Idea Man". All he is is just string shot against the black background. The graphics you see of dots whizzing by were generated by...

Geefle and Gonk pix I know pix of these two are probably rarer than hens' teeth, but just imagine... The Geefle was the green Anything muppet with the pointy head, and the Gonk was the Fat Blue one. Just put on different eyes and noses, put a little colored fur around their necks, and there...

milk, cookies, and Ernie yes, I remember CM taking Ernie's milk and cookies, and that's EXACTLY how the skit went. The other one where Ernie is at the brick wall explaining the letter Q, which stands for QUART. and he brings out a quart of milk packaged by Joanna Farms- our local dairy!!- CM...

My name is Roosevelt Franklin Nope! Beige. RF singing his song with four girl Anything Muppets. The song is also on the ultra-hard-to-find Columbia LP The Year of Roosevelt Franklin (with RF and Matt Robinson ont the front cover) last time spotted on ebay sold for about a hundred bucks.

spooky small v Oh my gosh, that small v one freaked me out too! Yes, that little bunny rabbit with a v for ears with that reverb-laden voice, and that psychotic stare in his eyes.... ooooh, man! Not for the weak-hearted. The only thing creepier than that was that later on in the same show, they...

I remember this one!!!! Ah, yes, that great early 70's trip. Somewhere in my archives I have this clip buried somewhere, and I always liked it too. The trippy orange thing with the purple antlers going Zip! Zoom! ZOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!! Zig Zag ZANY!!! Until some higher force confines him to a...

Back in Season 2, the new-blue Grover we all know today performed against this screaming-orange background. He sees a sign that says DANGER, but there was no danger to be found. He walks off-camera to the left and the right, but no sign of danger. He looks up, down, still no danger...

Jim's kids Brian Henson also was seen emptying out the piggy bank, showing five dimes, seven nickels, and nine quarters. He also showed eight ping-pong balls. Jim's daughter Cheryl whined about nine noodles. That must've been so cool, to hang around Dad long enough, you might even get...

guest monsters One was a blue monster with sharp teeth performed by Jerry Nelson. He was Bennett Snerf (nice parody of Bennett Cerf, who's son Christopher was the voice of Chrissy (of...and the Alphabeats) and who produced a bunch of Sesame videos in the 90's and who is now the Executive...

Gordon #4 Even before Sesame Street premiered, they had a different Gordon. When they produced a week of shows to test-market in July 1969, Robert Guillame (of Soap and Benson fame) was Gordon, but he didn't make the final cut. Enter Matt Robinson, who was originally hired as a writer and...

Jerry Nelson strikes again In the 2001 special that appeared on A&E, Maria talks about the feminist movement that swept through the 70's, and how in one episode she had a job as a construction worker. Jerry can be seen helping Maria onto a girder at a construction site. This was most likely...
