By the way--
tusen tack to WorldofSesame for posting those Swedish clips! It felt strange (but exciting) to see so many of my favorite bits from the 80s, dubbed into a language I love to speak and hear.
What surprised me most, though, is the dub of Kermit's "African Alphabet" song: the
Swedish alphabet actually has 29 letters, but Kermit still stopped short at Z. (The Israeli producers, who had to rewrite that song for a completely different alphabet, even changed the onscreen lettering to match...so why couldn't the Swedes tweak the song to add three new vowels?
)
