    Caterpillars never wear brown boots

    Does anyone out there remember this animated clip? Possibly mid 70's, I saw it on youtube not too long ago but it seems that it was discontinued. I loved it! Does anyone know did the vocals for that song or the band for that matter? That was a really cool song.

    Painful Animated Clips

    There were some animated clips that made me feel unsettled, these came out during the 70's and 80's: * There was one about the letter V on the sycamore tree and it landed smack-dab on a guy's knee. A bit gory if you ask me. * Another one was a very short clip of a guy being plastered with...

    Miami Mice

    There are probably only 2 Miami Mice skits posted on youtube but they are so funny! Does anyone know who did the voices for these characters, I think the characters were "J.P" and "Tito". I laughed so hard when I saw the Miami Mice skit with Ernie mistakingly pronouncing the spanish word...

    Who were those ladies?

    Anyone remember a live action music clip featuring some ladies playing some country music with instruments like kazoos, a washboard and water-jugs? They had a good groove going on there- somewhat bluegrass/hoedown/country music...whatever it was but it was great! I would think this clip came out...

    Who was your favorite vocalist?

    There were quite a number of great vocalists (for lack of a better term) that passed on Sesame Street. I consider Olivia (Alaina Reed), Marilyn Sokol and Bob (Bob McGrath) to be some of the finest vocalists ever to be on Sesame Street. Marilyn's voice is so versatile. I loved her performance on...

    A Sesame Street clip?

    My memory is extremely vague on this clip, not sure if its the Electric Company or Sesame Street but it was an animated clip featuring a bird (?) and a guy- not sure who said this part but the catch phrase was: "Its the plumber who's come to fix the sink"...please tell me that I didn't imagine...

    Clip of making a stool

    Anyone remember that one? Probably mid-70's, it showed a man making a stool for his daughter to sit on. The man made it from scratch, you know by sawing a log, using a hatchet trimming the bark off and all that. The girl also said a rhyme that went something like when they were putting the legs...

    Joe Raposo's animal songs/clips

    I remember there were a lot of these Joe Raposo animal songs or clips that had his musical scores with them. An example will be I'm an Aadvark and the live action Road Runner clip. I'm guessing there's an animal song or clip for every letter of letter for the alphabet (Maybe some exceptions like...

    Roosevelt Franklin Elementary School.

    Roosevelt Franklin Very interesting muppet, I personally thought he was really cool. A few may think of him being negative apart from the stereotyping as I read about- some may say he was too disruptive and all that. What do you think about the muppet that was Roosevelt Franklin? I truly missed...

    The Me song

    This was a song done by Joe Raposo; probably mid-late 70's? I loved this song but I can't remember the entire lyrics to the song...there was " Me in ny mirror, me in my bed, me in the pictures I make in my head", at least something to that effect. I seem to remember a live action video that went...

    Subtle changes for muppets

    Over the years, we have seen some changes in popular muppets like Ernie and Bert. I recall Ernie having a darker nose in the 1969- early 1970's seasons. From there we saw similar changes in Bert as well. Which look for Ernie and Bert do you prefer? I like the 1980's look for both Ernie and Bert...

    Captain Vegetable's only sketch?

    Remember that sketch in the 80's with Captain Vegetable? Really hilarious! Some said he was scary, but he was the best. Was this sketch the only one where Captain Vegetable did? Or did he do any other sketches? Eddie: "Spaghetti is great...BUT WAIT!!...Who are you?!!! Some kind of a weirdo???"...

    Soft Drink Parody

    I remember seeing an old soft drink ad back in the 70's or thereabouts (was it Dr. Pepper?), it featured a kid asking a football player for an autograph, I think... but the football player ignored the kid but shortly later gave the kid a towel. Anyone remember that one? But, Sesame Street did a...

    Funniest Sesame Street sketches

    This is just a personal list of sorts; there are tons of funny Sesame Street clips/sketches out there but the funniest that come to mind are: Hungry Cat waits for preoccupied owner to open can of cat food. Restless Ernie tries to go to sleep by counting fire engines. (Bert's scream at the end...

    Props on Sesame Street

    Have you ever wondered what does the Sesame Street crew do with props on the show that they don't intend to use, for example, like that painting of Ernie and Bert in their living room. Have you observed that the painting changed throughout the years? What do you think items like that go?....in...

    Kid climbing coconut tree

    Anyone remember the live action clip of a barebacked kid climbing a coconut tree? It also had a very catchy tune in the background. It was really cool to see him climb that tree with the greatest of ease. He later split the coconut and drank the water from it. When I saw that as a kid, I so...

    Elmo: pre Kevin Clash

    I can only think of 3 occasions where you can hear his then raspy, smoky voice in some classic sketches: 1. "Me Claudius" from Monsterpiece Theater 2. The song "We are all Monsters"- the original, I say original because the DVD "Monster Hits" has Elmo singing with his present squeaky voice. 3...

    Some never seen again muppets

    Not too sure of their correct names but particularly in the early 70's- I think there was a muppet named Bennett Snerf (sp?), there was a female muppet named Arlene (I think). How about Little bird, when last has anyone seen Little Bird? My sister at the time considered the muppet named Maurice...

    John-John appearance?

    Someone told me that John-John (the cute kid, chubby cheeks with an afro) from the early years of Sesame Street made an appearance on the 20th anniversary video (obviously as a grown up). Can anyone confirm this please?
