    The Best of The Count

    I know that on the skit with the blocks (which was, by the way, the Count's very first appearance on the show), the music was done on a pipe organ sort of thing to give it a more Transylvanian feel. In the other skits (such as the one with the Count counting flowers and when the Bats go on...

    Monsterpiece Theater Question

    A good way to tell if the skit is going to have Alistar Cookie's pipe is to see if it has the Union Jack opening at the beginning, seen on 1982-1991 sketches. That "39 Stairs" skit must be from the mid-to-late 80s. Anyways, did they cut the pipe from the video release of the 1988 "Sesame...

    kermits NEWS FLASH

    It's a bit more complicated than you think. Until the late 90s, they continued regularly showing the News Flash segments. If one was very lucky, he or she would be able to watch a really old Sesame Street News skit from the early to mid 1970s! But in 2001, Sesame Workshop bought the rights to...

    Heeeeere's HERRY!

    The Herry-style wolf was seen on Sesame Street News Flash skits until the mid-80s. Just go to Youtube and seach "sesame wolf" and you'll see. The Big Bad Wolf DID appear on an Ernie and Bert skit, the one with Ernie's disguise kit. But the book version had Frazzle in place of the Big Bad Wolf. I...

    The "Next Muppet on Family Guy" thread

    I'd love to see the show do a parody of Sesame Street News. After Peter introduces the flashback (he could say something like "this is even better than that Sesame Street News report!") it would cut to the NEWS FLASH title card we all know with its theme music (and maybe Jerry Nelson could do...

    Sesame Street News: Count Dracula

    Well, since it's October, I thought I'd put reporter Kermit the Frog in Transylvania. Here it is... The Sesame Street News Flash logo appears and its theme music is heard. Announcer (Jerry Nelson): We take you now to Kermit the Frog with another fast-breaking news story! The scene fades...

    Heeeeere's HERRY!

    I LOVED Herry Monster as a kid! His look was cute and his voice was funny! But it always puzzled me why in the books, Herry Monster wore pants (most illustrators depicted him clad in white-and-pink striped pants, but Tom Cooke's illustrations of Herry had him in purple pants with orange spots)...

    Captain Vegetable's only sketch?

    Yay, it's in English! But is it just me, or are most of the rabbits on "Sesame Street" made out of old Anything Muppets? I mean, Captain Vegetable is obviously made out of a Lavender-type Muppet, like Herbert Birdsfoot.

    Charachters who have been performed by 3 different people

    Yes. Jerry Nelson is his main performer, but in a few 80s News Flash skits, Kevin Clash did his voice. Joey Mazzarino also occasionally does his voice, too

    Sesame Skit - The Count Counts Butterflies

    Here's my try at writing a classic-style Sesame Street skit. If it actually existed, the butterflies would be played by real, live butterflies like this: http://www.laspilitas.com/butterflies/Butterflies_and_Moths/Western_tiger_swallowtail/western_tiger_swallowtail_on_a_lobilia_1.jpg THE...

    Classic-Style Sesame Skit: The Count Counts Butterflies

    I made this fan fiction, reminiscent of classic 70s and 80s Sesame Street segments with the Count... THE COUNT COUNTS BUTTERFLIES The scene is a big butterfly bush in a park on a nice sunny day. Several live butterflies are fluttering about (they are all Tiger Swallowtail butterflies). We...

    The Sound FX Character

    When the show originally started, until the late 80s, the show usually had quite weird, spacey sound effects (similar to the SFX on the Gene Deitch "Tom and Jerry" cartoons, some of the sounds from those cartoons also showed up on "Sesame Street"). They also used the same thunderclap sound...

    Was that Frank Welker doing Kermit's voice? He did Kermit on the "Deep Throats" episode

    Sesame Workshop unveils plans for Season 37

    Interesting idea, but Elmo doesn't go to school! How about Baby Bear, or even Big Bird? Plus, on TV they tend to use bells for fire drills instead of buzzers. Also, that idea sounds VERY similar to the old Arthur episode (and book) "D.W. All Fired Up." How about instead, a Muppet accidentally...

    Film with bath faucets?

    Hello, my brother is trying to find out an old Sesame Street skit. Here is what he told me what happens... It shows a close up of a bath faucet with water running, then there's a pause, I forget what it shows in the pause, then it shows the bath faucet again except it's not close up, another...

    Miss Muffet skit narrated by Gina

    That's not the one I meant, but it is sort of close. It IS humorous, though. They reveal the magic of an Anything Muppet there. But I don't understand how the spider in it near the end could scare people. Is it the beady eyes? The big hairy legs? The fact that it's BLUE? In my opinion, I think...

    Miss Muffet skit narrated by Gina

    Hey, I remember a skit from "Sesame Street" back when I was little. It was a take on "Little Miss Muffet," but it wasn't that one with the Fat Blue muppet messing up his costumes and Miss Muffet sounding like Miss Piggy, or even the News Flash skit with the waterbed. Here is what I remember...
