As I remember watching Sesame Street in my youth, one of the animated segments that scare me the most was Splasho the Diver. I remember two of the skits with him.

The first one was where Splasho tries to climb to the top of the ladder until he makes it. Then he dives into the water. And the last one was 'before & after'. It was where Splasho wants water into the cup from the janitor. Splasho yelling "BEFORE!" scares me before the janitor pours water into the cup.

These skits had feature scary circus music off-screen and they always had the voice off-screen shouting, "Take away, SPLASHO!"

Does any of you remember Splasho the Diver?

I think I'm dying to see Splasho skits again, because they scare the heck out of me in my youth.

Where can I find them?

Can they be shown on Unpaved or on any Season 25 shows or Season 30-31 shows or on the current season?

I believe the one with top and bottom can, but the other one about before and after was not used nearly as often.
