  • This is funny!

  • This is a great classic.

    by the way...this video looks pretty old and plus the bad digital blocky quality...it gets even worse.

  • Did anyone else notice the zzzzzzzzz's coming out of Sparky's butt??? lol

  • lol This is too epic! Still love this song...sparkie is too cute ^.^

  • I remember this. Scaryyy now.

  • made sense to make this bit,many kids see shadows of objects when the lights go out...for me it was clothes that were hung and they used to form a face on the wall.it was just to say that you shouldn't be afraid of the shadows because thats all that they were :)

  • CLASSIC!

  • why am i watching sesame street

  • @jordanwallace123 well why not? :)

  • geral, we want to go have sex , THERE is no alligator!!!!!! . GO TO SLEEP !!!!

  • I watched this the other day on a Sesame Street tape I have (I probably haven't seen this segment in at least 15 years!) and I realized the irony in it. His parents tell him it's his imagination, but yet at the end they ask what's that singing, ("It's just your imagination!) So if they heard the singing it wasn't imagined? Sparky sang?

  • The alligator its black.

  • ahh memories....

  • OMG This CRACKED ME UP as a kid!!!

  • Love this. Always cracked me up as a kid because the Zzzzz's at the end are coming from Sparky's butt :)

  • @EmCamDav Omg you're right i never noticed that!!

  • Comment removed

  • Finally found it. Memories....

  • *sings* imagine me an aliigator!!...and you came by for me to munch ya huh!!... im afraid of gettin thinner wont you please become my dinner....LOL

  • Sparky should say "Good night, Mom. Good night, Dad. Good night, Gerald." instead of pretending as an alligator!

  • Woo hoo! I have been looking and looking for this and could never find it. You made my day and took me back to my youth. Thanks!

  • One person never had an alligator in their room.

  • I think I saw this in school once when I was very small...scared me to bits!!! But it's kind of funny now. xD

  • Somehow I missed this for the 2+ years since you uploaded it, but THANK YOU!! I loved this bit when I was a kid, been looking for it for years!

  • lol..It's funny how he called for his 'mom' and not his 'dad'...lol

  • Good nite billy Idol

  • Every kid in my classroom knew "Imagine me an alligator" but I was the only kid who knew the line "I'm afraid of gettin' thinner, won't you please become my dinner".

    That always impressed the girls.

  • @TheIntruders like a BOSS!

  • The mother's voice really sounds like Fran Drescher.

  • The dog is such an asshole.

  • My boyfriend was talking about this this afternoon. lol It was his fave skit. :)

  • I wish Sesame Street still aired the old shows... Can't believe the episodes/clips on Sesame Street now... :(

  • @learlessfeader I tuned In recently to see what S.S was up to nowadays, & I was highly disappointed. Whats with the CGI? So I changed it cause CGI annoys me. It was cool back in 1995 when it was a new technology being used for Toy Story, but now its everywhere so its not cool anymore.

  • Marshalgrover: GOD BLESS YOU!!!!!!!!!! THIS WAS MY FAVORITE SKIT WHEN I WAS A KID!!!!!! THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH FOR LOADING IT!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU

  • Evil dog.

  • Go to sleep, Gerald! It's just your imagination!

  • OMG! I haven't seen this since I was 6! I'm 21 and I still get a kick out of this clip. Thanks for posting it! :)

  • This is my most favorite skit ever!!!!

  • I remember watching this as a kid in the early 80s--I loved the line, "Go to sleep, Gerald, it's just your imagination." I'm almost 33 now but I still remember this clip fondly...thanks for posting!

  • MOM!!! THERE AN ALLIGATOR IN MY ROOM!!!!!

    Best One.

  • Thank you for posting this.

  • Bad dog, Sparky! XD

  • LOL the way he says "Mom" and i would strangle sparky, now if did a michael jackson shadow, now were talkinXD

  • Oh Nothing Mom!, It's just Sparky being a jerk!

  • I feel like a complete idiot for being afraid of this as a kid.

  • once the number 3 made me cry

  • Don't feel bad, I was scared of the Count. :)

  • I should make a list of clips that creeped me out.

  • id hurt sparky for being s little shit

  • The dad's voice is so funny ^^

  • hahahaha dis iz great. And sparky's singing iz cool.

  • Sparky's kind of a jerk.

  • Just remembered this one. Don't remember if it scared me in the day, but Sparky pretending to be an alligator with his song cracked me up this time around.

  • I am so happy you posted this video. It must be 20 years since I've seen it.

  • It's been so long since I've seen this. I'm SOOOOOOOOO GLAD you posted this!

  • I remember Hulk Hogan used to think alligators lived under his bed when he was a boy.

  • Comment removed

  • yeah and the crocodiles jaw wasnt moving when sparky's was!

  • It's funny how the mum did not hear Sparky's singing the first 2 times but did the third time.

  • I was still in Montessori. Darn, how I missed these episodes. And now I'm introducing my kids to them. Strange how time flies so fast!!!

  • The mother sounds like Fran Drescher

  • Comment removed

  • OMG--this used to scare me so bad when I was little.

  • I remember this from when I was like.. 3. XD CRAZY.

    ...and also back when we owned a dog, I named him Sparky just because of this short.

  • This post just proves how ignorant you are.

  • I loved this when I was a kid!

    'And I came back to munch yah'....love it....lol

    I even love the kids answer to his mom at the end when she said that she is hearing singing, he gave her the deserved response...lol

    Love how he skinned his teeth too!

    But Sparkie is the star of this clip in my book!

    Classic!

  • i was looking for this! thanks for posting this!

  • In one line of the song, it sounds like "Sweet Potato Alligator".

  • I used to laugh at this all the time. XD

  • I thought this might have been lost to the sands of time. Thanks so much for posting this.

  • I sooooo remember this!

  • hey Leave the dog alone

  • Sparky's kind of a bastard...

  • @Veracidad1990 LOL! Right?

  • I used to sing this to annoy my sister! HA! I even did the nasal voices.

  • Sparky's DA BOMB!!!! If he came out with an album I'll buy it.

  • I love how Sparky turns to the camera and grins from 0:09-0:12.

  • I always wondered where the background voices came from.

  • Cleaver.

  • Damn Dog!!!

  • I love this one.  Must be from the 80's. "I'm afraid of gettin' thinner won't you please become my dinner." LOL

  • When you turn out the light it's there? Alligators are not nocturnal.

  • I like it when Sparky pretends to be an alligator until he got discovered. LOL

  • He makes a good singer, too.

  • Boy:Mum! There,s an aligator in my room!

    Mum:I don,t see any aligator.

    Boy:Well sure it,s not there now,but when ya turn out the light it,s there.

    LOL

  • Go to sleep, Gerald, it's just your imagination!
