Jim Henson Tribute 1990

[mkl62]

Thanks for uploading the 1990 parade. Due to circumstances beyond my control (I had to work), I missed the entire parade. I hope that the rest of the parade gets posted. Again, thank you.

thanks for sharing this. He was such a creative person and he did a lot for creating tv shows I loved as a kid.

Amazing find!... Or very lucky to have taped this. Alot of cool things in there, like the rare clip... Jim and Kermit talking about the Kermit Balloon... The SS cast no longer uses walk around suits... and the other rarest thing... Fraggle Rock in a parade! Amazing!

[SunnasChariot]

It's truly amazing... it's been nearly twenty years since Jim Henson's death and peopl, of ALL ages-myself included-STILL miss him.

Just goes to show what a profound impact he had on people.

Cute!

[TinyDancer500]

Thank you. That's all, just thank you so much for this wonderful clip.

I couldn't help but cry when the narrator said "characters who've become the heritage of a generation",such a beautiful way to describe the Sesame Street gang.

I think Jim would have loved to see Kermit as a balloon in the Macy Parade. I'm sure he'd be brought to tears just listening to the rainbow connection just that one time.

Jim Henson was the only celebrity whose passing made me cry. Thank you for posting this.

I was about four when he died and it hurts that he died so quickly and so young. I for one will not let him be forgotten. I am tearing up watching this clip. Thank you so much for it

[lightening816]

It's sad knowing that Jim is gone. He won't be forgotten.

[MptLvr]

Aww, touching. Love it thanks for uploading :D

But uhh... at 2:05, does the announcer say "Doozers and Whoozers"? What the hecks a Whoozer? lol

[Crassygyrinus]

a Doozer equivalent of a Whatnot perhaps?

Sounds like the narrator was just embelishing Dr Seuss really.

[agehron]

Thank you for making me feel old. Doozers and Whoozers are from Frazzle Rock. Doozers are little creatures that build stuff and I think the Whoozers are the Big things that wanted to catch the Fraggles.

[Crassygyrinus]

No, the ones that tried to catch fraggles were called "Gorgs"

[doctorwhoobawooba]

No those are Gorgs.

[KevyNova]

Thank you so much for posting this. It still breaks my heart to think about Jim.

[VCRfromHeck]

You're very welcome. I don't know why we taped that parade, but for this clip, I'm glad we did.

[KevyNova]

I'm glad you did too.
