This is the 1st appearance of Grover's mom.

I remember several routines in which Grover's mother was featured. I had no idea this was the first. Thank you for the information!

[WWEChampion16]

@Smartboy8877 You're welcome.

This is so cute! Grover is adorable!

[Smartboy8877]

@freepepsicola

I agree! I like Grover a lot too!

[mdumas43073]

I like that rendition of "Rock-a-bye Baby". What is that, an ocarina?



[SecretTechniqueGuy]

Does anyone else see that low black lump of shadow that was behind his bed in most of the shots? Right behind his head?

[Garrettk41]

I think that's just how the photograph was developed.

[nightowl8936]

Grover rules!

[finnishminnow]

BTW, I saw that there was a Black & White version of this skit seen on Wikipedia. And therefore, did any of you guys have a recall of seeing the Black & White version on PBS before?

[finnishminnow]

I like Grover's pajamas and Teddy Bear.

[TheSpiderSpinoza]

how did the lamp turn itself on

[CygnusRoc]

Grover has the clapper thingy.

[Lennyfred]

he talks like yoda does

[waddleduckie1]

That recorder and accompanists are scary.

[brightbite]

I would always burst into tears. That music always sounded kinda sad to me.

To me, Grover's mom looks like the season 1 proto-Grover

[culpit]

I have noticed that too. And I like how his Mom had her hands to her hips the whole time.

[nmsugarbear]

that is the proto grover

[opulent7]

When I was little I used to think that the semi-circular groove in the bed head was put there to accommodate Grover's nose while he slept!

[amesmb]

No kidding?! Me too!

[EquusPL]

I thought it was because his bed-head had been adapted from old guillotine...

[marmotyma]

lol

[IamDruidess]

Oh my god! i thought that too! seriously!
