With the recent flood of classic Sesame St clips appearing on Youtube, I am desperately searching for the brief animated clip where the concept of "BETWEEN" is being demonstrated.

My memory's a bit hazy, but all I can remember is a character being caught between two large objects and saying "BETWEEEEN" in a manner in which I can't replicate through typing.

Does anyone remember this sketch and more importantly can any kind soul point me in the right direction towards finding it?

Thanks in advance..

I might be onto something here. The following post describes the sketch...

"3. The "Between" cartoon. A little man was doing various things between two big men (hammering, jackhammering, eating lunch, etc.) For each task, the announcer would say "Between." "

I cant link to the post cos I'm still a newbie..

Now to find a copy... Anyone seen this on any of the SS DVDs or on Youtube??

I don't have a copy of this one, but I think I know about the cartoon you're describing. The little man goes through the course of his day, being stuck between bigger things. On the bus ride to and from work, he's sandwiched between two heavy-set people. At his job, he's stuck on an assembly line between two beefy workers who take riveting guns to a piece of metal, where he just taps it with his little mallet.
At lunchtime he's stuck between his coworkers who chow down huge lunches, while our little friend nibbles at his teeny little sandwich.

And at the end of the day, when he climbs into bed and turns out the light, two huge dogs jump into bed with him.

Poor guy. Stuck between a rock and a hard place.
