The "P Sunset" Cartoon

I vividly remember seeing, during my days of watching Sesame Street in the late 1970s through 1985, there was a short letter P cartoon segment which involved a sunset and flashing colors along the edges of the letter.

But this morning, it came to my senses something I discovered. Given there was heavy flashing of colors, and moving fast enough, wouldn't that trigger seizures for viewers who had/have epilepsy? Having said that, it really surprises me that segment was shown on first-run episodes as recently as 2005, and currently seen on Ep. 971 on the Workshop's YouTube channel.

I haven't seen this one, but I have a hard time watching That's About the Size because of the flashing lights at the end. The music/animation are beautiful, but it always gives me headache.

I say this as someone who is NOT prone to seizures whatsoever.
