[evankimori]

WERE IT YOU STRANGER?! *grab*

[EdGringo78]

This used to scare me as a little kid

[KLRwashere]

Lee is President? Must have been in a confedrate state.

[KLRwashere]

"You'd better not be lyin cause I got you covered....You sneakin' sniveling hombre...you snake-eyed something-something arrrgh!!!!!!" Then at the end...everyone laughs! Sesame Street sure was a remarkable show back then. It had alot of nerve. Today I think it is alot calmer. I am not sure, since I dont watch SS today.

[afriendofbean]

I wonder why Sinister Sam wants to use a crayon to learn how to write the letter "Y" when he of course could use a pencil, a pen, or a marker. All he had to do was just ask one of the cowboys in the bar if they had one of those writing tools if he could borrow it for a second.

[8x3mhlk02]

 #iwannaknowwhy

[MIKECNW]

Perhaps it's too easy to say what I'd do in these situations but I would think I'd say "I bought the crayons, here they are if you want them."

[afriendofbean]

That would probably be a good idea but, Sinister Sam probably would have said "no" that he doesn't want to keep them where he just wanted to borrow a crayon for a second to try to use it to learn how to write the letter "Y."

[matthewlorXIII]

WTF IS THIS "HAMBRE?" ES HOMBRE SENOR! HAMBRE means HUNGER...HOMBRE means MAN...O sound not AH sound *_*

[thedoors781]

I wanna know Y!

[Garrettk41]

Would anyone be able to upload the Old West clip about Willie Crybaby?

[deflefishy]

lmao i feel giddy inside. memories!!!

[muhideen]

"How 'bout YOU, you sneaking snivelling hombre!"

[hsuehhs]

They need to have a Sheriff

[mersalessmerv]

u sure a that!!!!  UHruuuh!

[culpit]

It's a shame the orange guy ran out of the bar and never got to see Sam's true intentions for the crayons.

[ZNKChannel]

I think Jim was a lefty with the puppets, but I think he was a righty in the real world. Anyone agree with me? In short, I think all the live-handed Muppets are left-handed while the puppeteers are right-handed

[1712Overture]

@ZNKChannel

That's due to puppeteering, actually. You usually use your dominant hand for the head.

[ZNKChannel]

@1712Overture Except Louise Gold. She's right-handed, isn't she? or is it the other way around.

[KristyB5]

One of my favorite all time SS moments. I still sometimes refer to it. So happy to find it!

[watdbleepahgwan]

this used to freak me out

[sweetlife031]

@watdbleepahgwan

Oh me too....I used to be so frightened by Sinister Sam as a child...

"Yeah I'll go around grabbing every person I see by the shirt cuz I'm jealous of crayons and cant draw" geesh lol

[IXIChelseaIXI]

this reminds my mom of times wen she was little. she got teary-eyed watchin this!!

[cavalierfan1995]

you sneeking snivelin you snake hiden behind this hat rack! hulairious.

[RoCecK]

I totally forgot about this one!! This always made me laugh!!

I love that the guy turns and faces the wall to hide.

...there kinda purrrrrty

notice the southern newspaper that they are writing on?

[Im1337f0x123]

"I WANNA KNOW Y!!" pfft! silly Sinister Sam!

[yamihoole]

I remember this! I havent seen it since I was little! One of my fav bits. "you better not be lyin cuz I got you covered"

[Wheeloffortunefan999]

WELL I'LL BE GALLL DURNED! LOL!

[olneymike]

"Lee is President" on the poster. Hilarious. Jim Henson was an absolute genius.

[guzguz9]

wha... this is hilarious XD

[pipkitten]

is it the same guy who did rlof the dog and dr teeh

[wattamack4]

Yes.

[rschmo]

do you have the sketch where Sinister Sam is looking for the biggest man

[wattamack4]

Nope.Sorry.

[carebear0979]

The voices I hear in the skit are Jim Henson, Frank Oz, Richard Hunt, and Jerry Nelson. I don't hear Dave Goelz, but I could be wrong. Those five men were the core of Henson productions!!!

[disneynut06]

Well, that's because Dave Goelz did not perform on Sesame Street until after Jim Henson's death.

[MrMetalmanRock]

@carebear0979

Dave Goelz worked on there during Season 24.

[Jigglysaint]

And when we admit we watch Sesame Street even into our late teens, this is "Y"

[Wheeloffortunefan999]

good one!

[coolbluelights]

"I got you covered" lol another golden classic!!

[lizzykat2]

Yeah that was funny

[lizzykat2]

That guy that was playing the piano looked like Fat Blue That Grover serves at Charlie's

I hope I'm right

[Garrettk41]

No, that's not him. It's just another typical Fat Blue anything Muppet that happens to look like him.

[lizzykat2]

oh yeah

[DiAnno13]

'Somebody took the last box o' crayons! Were itchoo?'

'G-g-gesundheit, Sam!'

[DiAnno13]

I like the tablecloths.. reminds me of a spaghetti Western.

[samsticka]

"You better not be lyin' cause I got you covered!" That's the best line in this skit.

[carebear0979]

I have to agree with you on that. That is my favorite part!!!

[pokinsmot]

"Were itchyu?" XD I can watch thise over and over and over and over...

[coffeegirlbelinda]

Sinfully delicious (and nostalgic)!

[DiAnno13]

Sinister Sam, aka Sinistral Sam.
