What is your all time favorite muppet song or sketch on "Sesame Street"?

Mine is "Put Down the Duckie", the uncut version with all of the celebrities (it was worthless without them). I'm sorry, but it's just so silly, it still gets me.

"I Don't Want to Live on the Moon" gets me every single time.

It's very old, but I adore the sketch where Kermit is singing the alphabet w/ a little girl...
"q r s, t u cookie monster!" and the little girl says she loves him [as in Kermit]. Boy, that sketch was adorable.

Wow....I've never heard of either of the last two...that last one DOES sound adorable, I'd have loved to have seen it.

It wasn't until long after I started this thread the image that really sticks out to me from Put Down the Duckie....the late, great Madeline Kahn singing it with Rubber Duckie on her head, like she doesn't even know it. That cracks me up every time!

The Alligator King was always a huge favorite in our house. I also enjoyed the Guy Smiley "This is Your Life" skits and "Monsterpiece Theater" with Cookie Monster quite a bit. I have MANY other faves but those are the first ones to come to mind.

The only time I've ever seen it was on the Celebration of 30 Years special. I'm sure one of the hardcore SS people knows when it was aired.
