My question is...what is Ernie doing with Bert's pants??

[ARoundCube]

you now have realised that ernie is a black guy.

[JackPlatt]

Hahahahahaha!!!! Bert getting hit in the head with just about everything!!!! Bert, "MY PANTS!!!!" hahahahahahahahaha!!!! Classic!!!!

[Darren50001]

Does anybody ever think Ernie does these things on purpose to get a rise on old Bert?

[SingItAsItIs]

have u ever noticed that theyre grown men, livin in a apartmen, together, and they have toys... does that give anybody besides me an image or idea?

[MrTornado300]

ERNIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

[iansquirrel]

[electriccompany7]

[DarqueMyth]

[llfrocks]

This clip is too cute and funny!!

[bezzybecks123]

LOL bert and ernie r just like rod and nicky from Avenue Q erine kindda sounds like nicky as well

[Katerinasky]

"my pants!" hahaha...

[champwithin]

you have to remember that Ernie and Bert were used to as comic relief to balance out the educational parts of the show. At the same time they could be used to blend in the theme of the show, such as the "H" in the tv episode, being that, that show was "brought to you by the letter H"

Scene's like this one with the "important note" were more just for the comic relief.

I LOVE THIS-- I also love the sesame street sketch that's not homer!!!

[DracoArum]

Man, Ernie can be such a smart aleck, lol! I really liked how Frank Oz manipulated Bert's mouth to make him look very irritated when Ernie was throwing stuff around. I also love the blow-whistle sound effects too.

[kungfujiapple]

This sketch appears on:

Sesame Street episode 0355 (February 25, 1972)

Sesame Street episode 3200 (February 18, 1994)

Sesamstrasse Folge 2330 (2005)

[LauraLittlePony]

Whose clothes are in that hamper? o_O Maybe they're Ernie and Bert's work clothes. . .

[rrunner81sg]

The early Bert & Ernie skits were the best! Bert's temper tandrums and pissed off face and Ernie's laid-back, mischievous brattiness made the skits much funnier. Once they got toned down around 1973 or 1974, they were not as hilarious, but still good.

[cutseypoo777]

"Dear Bert,

It's your turn to clean up the apartment.

Love,

Ernie"

Priceless!

Somehow, I love the sound of Ernie throwing his toys all over the apartment and the sound effect of the clothes being strewn all over the apartment.

[gimpmasterw]

i love ernie

[sideslide23]

wow this is fun ha ha look at all that junk flying woo hooo throw everything around so bert can clean up the room ha ha

[Brinah]

ernie did that on purpose!! lol

[jediKnightreviews]

i love when ernie shoves bert at the end of the video. little touches like that, are awesome

[bigrene2]

Me too!

[Maxmulham]

Ernie cannot be trusted. Even though he's my idol.

[DrJekyll38]

C'mon, Ernie's a wiseguy, but you gotta admit he's a good friend for sticking by Bert despite his complete lack of a sense of humor!

Funniest moment: "MY PANTS!"

[gringging]

Bert: "If it's a REALLY important note, I'd like to have it, yaknow, c'mon...."

Well, Bert, Ernie gave it to ya!!

The image of poor Bert's misshapen head getting pelted with those toys was just PRICELESS!! Henson and Oz, my two best buddies!!

[bethahop]

I love Ernie!

[ShadowPikachu]

"My pants!"

Oh god... XDDDD

[RedGyl]

I'd be so mad if I was Bert.

[knack4lol]

I really like this skit and Bert's facial expressions. Mainly thanks to his flexible eyebrows and chin, Bert seems to be able to show feelings more clearly on his face than any other muppets. BTW, nobody seems to have posted the skit where Ernie cuts Bert's hairs only to make him bald. That's so hilarious too.

[cne08]

Thanks for posting this hugic2112. I remember this skit. I would like to see the Ernie & Bert sketch where Ernie makes a shopping list for the grocery store out of pudding if I remember correctly. Do you know if this skit is on youtube?

[livinlarge18]

Bert sounds judt like Fozzie Bear I realize that Frank Oz and Eric Jacobson preform both

[livinlarge18]

I like Steve Whitmire's Ernie better its high-pitched and Jim Henson's Ernie is low-pitched

[kevin07979]

My pants! Love it.Great memories of when the show was good.

[setheurovision94]

A really frustrating clip to watch, but incredibly hilarious as well. Bert's frustrated shouts and the way he handles the "truth" are priceless moments. But at moments like these, even if I were Bert I would put my foot down.

[jeopardy60611]

I alwzays loved those "whoop" sounds while Ernie was throwing the clothes out of the clothes hamper. Now that I'm seeing this 30 years later, I'm cracing up over how Bert gets hit with toys and covered with clothes.

"What's a note doing in the clothes hamper?"

[PinkPiratess]

so confusedly cute ernie^^

[riodarra]

I love Ernie!

[kellymj11]

Bert's frown is so funny at 0:32. this was before he could move his eyebrows. LOL!

[reuleaux]

lol so true, his eyebrows are funny.

[toastichedu]

Bert's expressions watching things getting thrown around and getting hit in the head with objects are just hilarious!
