Does anyone remember this segment? I think it's from the mid-90's where Gina and Big Bird found a sad 1 in the arbor and cheered him up with a song about how important he is. One example I know they used was that there's only one sun and one moon, with Muppet examples. Anyone else remeber this?

I saw that episode long ago; it did indeed feel like a precursor to last season's "sad number 0" episode. The Count sang the song about how important 1 was (at least twice); and the 1, like last season's 0, tried to quit its job by becoming other things. As a pogo stick, it couldn't support anyone's weight, though...and as a banana, it kept getting chased by two hungry monkeys. Does anyone else remember how the story got resolved? My memory is good, but not flawless! :smile:
