Hi. This reminds me of when I see it in an old-fashioned American movie museum for when Sesame Street was aired in from about 1965 or 1967, and the regular closing music (audiolizing Toots Thielemans playing harmonica) plays for "Sesame Street characters (Susan, Bob & Gordon) saying goodbye to the viewers". Sesame Street was shown on NET in the 1960s.

Ernie doesn't care about the Executive Producer...but he is fascinated on where trash goes??

[MaStormy]

[madcapromanian]

The Ape should have sung "Ape Call".

[antster1983]

@madcapromanian Instead it does a very bad Tiny Tim >.<

I think this is probably the first time the Anything Muppets have ever been referred to by name.

Ernie's comments during the credits are really funny ("Who cares who wrote this thing").

[lynn314]

WOW! I somehow just came upon this, this is some really unique footage! This is so funny and seems so hip back then! It was such a great way to entice viewers to come back and watch Sesame Street. Especially since they be able to see these two great characters again! I love how Ernie is pushing the side of the credits to trying to get his points across and be seen and how Bert is trying to be the voice of reason. Jim Henson and Frank OZ bantor is so clever and entertaining here!

[angrypunkbronxkid]

Well their mothers care!

[cheeto37]

Jim and frank are hysterical

[bgrasso5]

ah, who cares who cares who wrote this thing??

[CadillacL]

WOW, when did this happen? I can't believe it. Is the whole thing on here?

[mynameisxena]

[Mindslash47]

Ernie's having a fit. Lol, calm down!

[superAJ71]

Is that closing theme available anywhere in its entirety? Toots Thielmans really plays some great stuff on there.

[Jbrangwynne53]

Man, I wish it was. I heard the entire piece was around three minutes long.

[culpit]

Yes, Sesame Street changed the world of television when it started to air.

[HazyChase20]

I won't be surprised if Jim improvised all the stuff he said during the credits...

[jerhouck]

ernie 1:55 2:00 2:10.

[hotroute]

This changed the way childrens television is viewed (and my life was influenced incredibly by it) but it seems very corporate even by 2009 standards.

[HCShannon]

@hotroute While programs on regular TV relay on ratings for their survival, programs on Public TV relay on money from viewers and corperations and a very small amount fedearal goverment.

[yaziyo]

Lol ernie

[MooseMcGladefan]

Funny stuff. I like it. :-)

[1990babyface]

Ernie was High. What's Zerox? What does he mean by that?

[pooka5472]

It's Xerox, not Zerox. Xerox is a printing company.

[1990babyface]

A Printing Company?

[pooka5472]

Yes, a printing company. It manufactures and sells, among other things, printers and photocopiers.

[spicy321]

Thanks. Mystery solved!

[spicy321]

I wonder who Danny is who's credit was left off?

[Jbrangwynne53]

Danny Seargen: He puppeteered for the Muppets for about a year. He was really just an assistant puppeteer as far as I'm concerned. He really didn't perform any major characters. He did sub in for Carroll Spinney to perform Big Bird a couple times.

[antsamthompson9]

Funny!

[brianklick]

omg, this is tight as hell

[1990babyface]

LOL. You are a trip.
