Think of the Muppeteers...

Here's some food for thought, and let's face it, it's different.

I remember when my favorite Warner Bros. cartoon came on - I liked it enough to tune in (again), but it was getting tedious. One way to make it fun was to close my eyes/turn my head and pay attention to the background music. With Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and the like, I could imagine the whole orchestra. I'm sure others here have too.

Well, sometimes I like to picture in my mind the Muppeteers performing in a Sesame skit, as if I was privy to a behind-the-scenes look, like during the A&E special or Muppets on 60 Minutes. For example, on PWMS, during the Herry looks for triangles skit with Grover, I tried to picture Jerry and Frank operating the characters plus remembering what we know how Frank looked in 1970.

Anyone ever done this? It's fun to try. It's not always easy.
