Sesame Street - Gloria Globe is sick

[SiouxCitian]

So, Global warming is caused by litter?

This looks like an 80s or 90s equivalent to DUCK AND COVER or those educational films from the 50s! LOL

[DiAnno13]

Gloria is feeling incontinent.

[jeffkahl]

just seems like a PSA for Greenpeace or some other environmental lobby group. not my cup of tea...

[mortaldragon2]

An intresting thing you guys may want to know, that if you don't already know or even care, the women making the voice for Gloria is also the one that makes the voice for Cecille the ball. Michelle Marianna. Don't even know if I spelled it right LOL.

Y'know, I can really see why this cartoon didn't take off. It's just down-right preachy (and you know how kids love preachy cartoons *sarcasm*)

[Jbrangwynne53]

I kinda think it's weird that the person voicing Gloria Globe also voiced Cecile, the clay-animated orange ball. It makes sense, though.

I remembered two segments from my childhood with her-usually her gig was attempting to pull a rabbit out of a hat like Bullwinkle-and like Bullwinkle she usually failed-and pulled something else out. From the ones I remember she pulled out a kangaroo and a camel once. She'd then have to relocate them to a country where they belonged. The end gag would always center upon what became of the elusive rabbit.

I remember 3. The third was a tiger.

[DiAnno13]

It's a sick, sick world.

[GroverKent]

Yeah I don't remember any Gloria Globe segments either, but they don't seem none too appealing.

[BuddyBoy600]

There was another Gloria Globe segment where she sings a song about the continents of the earth. Anybody got that?

[BuddyBoy600]

BTW, The song was called "I am the World." In that segment, Gloria Globe failed to be shot from a cannon. So, Gloria Globe decided to sing a song about the earth.

I know, I'm the one who added the info to Muppet WIki.
