Um... Actually, VM... Threads like this one and the one about The Great Space Coaster you started would be best suited for the Puppetry section of the forum. Me thinks that section's just right for discussions about other puppetry-based shows, as well as discussions regarding the business of puppet making and puppet performances.
Hope this helps.

I SWEAR I posted in this thread! Oh well. Yeah I remember them. We used them in kindergarten to teach us about letters.

Maybe we could turn it into a thread that belongs here: What are some of the similarities that The Letter People shared with classic SS?

:zany:

We had those "portrait poster cards" when we were taught the letters in Kindergarten. I remember each we, our teacher had us learn a new letter, we would look at the poster card, and observe why each person had the letter he did (like Mr. H had the Horrible Hair), then we would hear a song sung by that Letter Person about why they are who they are. Then finally would do an art project (I remember we made make-shift Mr. P's out out of colorful construction paper).
If I remember correctly, I think I saw the Letter People TV show ONCE in my whole life time, and I think it was something about Mr. C wanting out of the alphabet since in some cases he sounds exactly the same as Mr. K.
