    Beginning and End Skit

    I just updated the link to the compilation of 'beginning/end' clips on YouTube. I'm just wondering if anybody can get a positive ID on the barber, the boy getting the haircut, the man eating the hot dog, the man painting the picture, the woman making the sandwich, and the child accompanying...

    Any segments or film inserts you couldn’t stop thinking about?

    Here's the list as it appeared about 15 years or so ago, before people had a lot of access to earlier episodes of the show: 1. 'Fred, get me a 20' - a man (Joe Raposo) gets sent on a mission to find a 20, finds the numbers 11 through 19 along the way, and runs into a gorilla (and the 20) at...

    Any segments or film inserts you couldn’t stop thinking about?

    As for me, I would think that most people who have 'interacted' with me for a while online would agree that it would be one (or several) of the segments included on that 'wish list' I had (on Muppet Fandom, etc.) before they finally made it to the Web in mid-2022 or early 2023.

    I see what you mean. A lot of musicians, especially those who 'stay around' for a while, can (and at certain times, do) change their 'style' or 'genre,' not to mention the means and/or musical instruments used in producing and preforming their work.

    "Film Insert/Montage" segments from Sesame Street

    OK, I understand. The 'beginning-end' segments last appeared in Season 11 (1980), while the gymnast segments had their 'last hurrah' in Season 14 (1983).

    "Film Insert/Montage" segments from Sesame Street

    Actually, I'm trying to figure out where these segments were filmed, especially the gymnast segments, since they were all likely filmed in the same location, yet the background is so dark and nondescript. I do know, however, that the gymnast's name is Deborah Eich Romer. Do you remember the...

    "Film Insert/Montage" segments from Sesame Street

    Would the eight gymnast segments from 1973 and the five 'beginning-end' film segments from 1972 also fall into the category at which your inquiry is apparently aimed? Just wondering.

    I just saw the video for that show you mentioned. Yes, it's 'that' Keith Mansfield. His works also appear in several NFL Films documentaries, to name a few.

    Now the question to be answered (I suppose) is where all eight gymnast segments were filmed originally.

    If you want to find out the way the gymnast segments were found, go to the following site and the story begins at the 26:01 mark. The story sounds spooky, to say the least.

    Gymnast

    Hi, YellowYahooey: You are correct about Season 14 being the final one for the gymnast (with 'close to-away from' in Episode 1824 being her final appearance) as well as the fact that 'on-off' was the least shown segment out of the eight. In terms of the music, though, none of it is by Joe...

    I just got a positive identification from somebody who knew and worked with her. It is Deborah!

    Hi, YellowYahooey: Deborah (maiden name Eich) graduated from Seaford High School in Seaford NY (Queens area) in 1972. She was on the gymnastics team, and apparently did well. She then attended Nassau Community College and participated in gymnastics there likewise. Under her married name...

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Perhaps we should let the admins at Muppet Fandom know about that (unless they already do), so they can consider classifying Episode 0298 as 'lost' (unless, of course, someone out there has the entire 'unabridged' episode).
