Luckily, I am not afraid of clowns .. although I was for a short time after seeing Poltergeist was I was young

I know what you mean about that Randall. That used to scare the juice out of me.

According to Sesame Street Unpaved, that frog had an accident of some sort right on top of Jim Henson's head during the taping of that skit.

It is interesting that in the beginning, Bob says that he wants to show the audience a real frog. Odd that he would admit to kids that Kermit wasn't real.

It's in the last page in the section on Kermit the Frog. There's a transcript to that sketch on the last page of the Kermit section, along with a secret fact. It doesn't say whether the frog pooped or pee'd on Jim Henson, but implies it. Bob is quoted with saying "This must have been the frogs first time on television, and he did -- what nervous frogs do -- right on Jim!" The fact says that they almost blew the scene, but remained in character as if nothing happened. I wonder if it actually happened while tapping. There are quite a few close-ups, where the bottom of the frog is blocked, so it can't actually be seen what he does. I noticed that Bob did laugh quite a bit during the scene.

Thanks so much; they don't make street sketches like they used to!
