[Slegger0404]

Dear John Tartaglia,

Not only are you absolutely adorable you're amazingly talented. You sing, you dance, and you're a puppeteer. You're a great man Johnny. A great man.

@Hinahime16 It's on disney junior! Go to the homepage, and keep refreshing 'til u get the higglytown heros ad, and click it, you'll find some full episodes of this show!

[77462377]

The sprites are the cousins of fraggle rock. (LOL) What do you get when you put Troll Call and Fraggle Rock together? (The Sprites) LOL

[TherealRNO]

@77462377: But once of the Sprites is Leslie (aka Abby Cadabby), does that mean Ginger (the Sprite in question) and fairy god-child Abby are related? XD

[TherealRNO]

@77462377: Naturally, all the Muppets are family. Muppet Family Christmas proved as such.

[WereWolfDan1991]

Those Sprites are so cute!

[WereWolfDan1991]

Those sprites are so cute!!!

[cheeto37]

[NateSean]

It's a newer show, but it's a such a throwback to the early style of Disney. I mean, this show is up there with Fraggle Rock and I'm glad kids now a days can have something like this.

[xXLaLaLandXx15]

It's weird to know he was having sex with Kate Monster..

[AnimeLuver70]

i always like the blue sprite as a kid

[TheAngelvp9]

i used to love this when i was younger

[OpiumpLayground4life]

Yeah......you know he never got laid.

[Simmishimmy]

I LOVE YOU MORE THAN ANYONE JOHN TARTAGLIA

[JONASPuppy887]

[FlamingIssue]

[AmandaCandyPants]

[NicoleWorldOnline]

Im in staples right now on a computer in the store and playing this song loud and proud. No matter how many ppl give me strange stares. THIS IS THE BOMB DIGGITY!

[nicmic42]

this was literally the best show on disney channel. They still have Hannah Montana and Sonny With A Chance on there but they cant put Johnny and the Sprites somewhere on tv???! I don't get it.

[lizzykorwan]

[tyra216]

[Opocalypser213]

[dragonsammy1]

@BlueRowan Me to im like wheres the rest of the Avanue Q cast

[53tgh1]

@BlueRowan IKR! and it doesn't that he's wearing a 'Orange' jumper!

[BlueRowan]

John is a legend in my eyes

[Thekittyqueen1]

ginger has Abby's voice from sesame street 

[TherealRNO]

@Thekittyqueen1: Of course. Leslie performs both. Just like how Jerry [Nelson] is Robin the Frog and Gobo Fraggle (as well as Count Von Count, Pa Gorg, and Trash Heap Majorie). XD

[SashaToppin]

Now he looks like a 'Johnny'

[l0vexclauddd]

..schizophrenia. ♥ but i still love him.

[cirina3]

i love this song too i came to live in this house in the woods.. to work on my music on my own.....but somehow i feel its a magical place..and  some how i feel im not alone...... i was just Johny till i walked through that door.. but im not just johny any more....im johny.... and the sprites.. did you see one? johny... and the sprite ...could you be one??... johnyyyy and the sprites

[telitmermaid]

[kriscutie109]

Yes, Johnny. i could be a Sprite. XD

[lillyforeverr]

i loved this show i love john too!! i remember when this came out i was "too old to watch it" but i loved it!!!!

[spongebobluvr66]

lol i just love how john went from avenue q to this. XD i love him.

[DiaSonador]

I totally this show. The actress who provides the voice of Lily provided the voice of Kiki on The Puzzle Place.

[TheBroadwayMuppet]

I LOVE JOHN! So awesome.

[XXDisneyGirleyXX]

I had a ton of episodes of this show on my ipod my freshmen year of high school xD I loved it. I thought Root was the cutest little thing on earth. Haha!

[monicalee23]

why was this show cancelled my daughter and I miss it! =(

[CheshireCatForever]

@monicalee23 Yeah, I was pretty much "too old" to be watching Playhouse Disney (I think about 3rd or 4th grade, possibly later, but I can't quite remember.) when this show started, but I absolutely loved it and watched it every morning while getting ready to go to school in the morning.

[huskycommander]

I cant believe no one noticed there was a night elf, satyr, blood elf, druid, whisps, "groves" and all that other warcraft stuff here!

well not much people play warcraft and watch this show anyway...

[juliecranford]

My dad's name is Johnny so that always makes me giggle.

[superbreadgirl05]

NO I Hate This!

[glasssilhouette]

I love John Tartaglia <33333

Is it odd that I'm a teenager who owns the first 2 seasons of this on DVD? They're on my iPod, too... lol. Sorry for that random tangent.

Anyhows, for all of you wondering, since I see a lot of comments asking. Johnny's chronology:

Sesame Street (background whatnots/extras)

Avenue Q (Princeton/Rod)

Johnny and the Sprites (...I'll give you one guess)

Shrek The Musical (Pinocchio, Magic Mirror, and Dragon)

[DeadSexyMiniskirt]

@glasssilhouette He was also Ernie for about 3 years after Jim Henson died./

OMG this is really surreal seeing him doing a kids' show after... well..........

[glasssilhouette]

@DeadSexyMiniskirt

I forgot that! xD Well, at least I mentioned Sesame Street in general... He wasn't the voice for Ernie, right? He operated Ernie's right hand, if I'm correct.

[DeadSexyMiniskirt]

@glasssilhouette According to the Muppet Wiki, he did the voice for some time, but it doesn't say how long. And, yeah, he was the right hand before Jim died. Idk about after.

[glasssilhouette]

@glasssilhouette xD I forgot to mention, he was also Lumiere (the candlestick) in Beauty and the Beast-- that comes right between JATS and Shrek ^^

[XDreamDontBelieveX]

isnt the guy who plays johnny also the guy who does princestons voice on avenue Q

[yamiyugifangirl]

I saw this before I heard of Avenue Q and when I started listening to the Avenue Q songs I heard Johnny and wondered if he did Avenue Q first then this or vise versa

[loveisyou18]

He is so handsome and talented...even if he's dancing with puppets half the time lol

If anyones seen that really old vhs with the "live" Belle and she sings story tales, I swear those sprites are the "bookworms"!!

Does anyone else know what I'm talking about? The pink and green one. It's them in new form!! :o

[Floweramon]

I know what you're talking about! They are reminiscent of those little bookworms, aren't they ^_^

[Theanimemasters]

NO! i cant get avenue q out of my head when i hear this LOL xD I LOVE John Tartaglia <3

[dancechicka123]

This song is so catchy!

I love John <3

[superbreadgirl05]

@dancechicka123 DAMN Your right i keep listening to it even thought i hate it

[leowet14]

I LOVE IT

[blackhearted167]

this is the best fuken video and if any1 has a problem with my oppinion I DNT CARE this rox!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dux14]

I never realized how creepy this was! Oh my..but when i first saw avenue q..and saw he was in the original cast..I was like "it's johnny! from johnny and the sprites!" I felt like I was the only one, no one else knew! it was a shame. :(

[kriscutie109]

Omg, me too :P

[roger09doger]

xPsychoPig13 your so wrong everyone knows my friend mary anne is the best liar but if you didnt know that well thank me buecause now you do know ur welcome :)

[xoxo721xoxo1]

omg i loved him in avenue q!!!!!!

avenue q is such a good show

[Rockloverx3]

abby cadabby looks like she belongs on here lmfaoo

[lilnell824]

Is it wrong that i get a worm fuzzy feeling when I watch this show? its just so freakin' adorable!

[heresthadude1080]

@lilnell824

I know! I'm a dude, but i like watching shows with fantasy creatures, like sprites!!

[juliecranford]

I used to watch this every weekend but I don't see it on anymore.

[juliecranford]

My dad's name is Johnny.

[theatremaniagrl14]

omg i love him!!!! he's one of the nicest guys ever! he and my mom plus my mom's friend (who introduced them) are like bffls!

[westintheeast]

watch avenue q ^^

[xPsychoPig13]

you get a thumbs up for being the best liar of the day :D

[theatremaniagrl14]

i am so not a liar xPsychoPig13. Avenue q is aweosme and one of my favorite shows. if you can't appreciate the fact that i know him, you can just buzz off cause ur not appreciateing star power here

[EmceeOfTheBurg]

He also is doing Shrek on Broadway as Pinocchio, the Magic Mirror, and the Dragon Puppeteer.

[EpicFaerietale]

It's not that big of a surprise. He worked on Sesame Street for a while before he did Avenue Q. For him to go from Avenue Q to this is kind of a full circle resolution.

[NashiNashii]

He started at sesame street when he was 16.

[inihawnabangus]

Hard to believe this dude is from Avenue Q

[juliecranford]

and seseme street, as is his friend Gwen. I mean, she's from both, too.

[GangOfFriends]

DAMN this brought back MEMORIES!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Violetsoul6]

aww i miss johnny...and somehow my 2 year old niece remembers him! I put this on and she yelled "Johnny!!"

[Acrobatdog99]

When I Saw This Show On TV. I Thought It was Done By The Jim Henson Company.

[Agent0042]

Well, that's not surprising-- many of the show staff are Henson crew or former Henson crew. I see this original theme, before they had it so that Gwen could see the Sprites.

[Ogreenworld23]

wow hes from aduld avenue q to kid jhonnny and the sprites as frielock would say damn son

[gabriellatheraccoon1]

How you from Avenue Q to this i will never kno O.o

[MelancholyDinosaurs]

John always wanted this, he created those characters himself as a teenager. He'd done Sesame Street for 10 years, too. It wasn't all that sudden

[sunnyxmle]

wait...is john tartaglia really gay?

[duckerdog22]

yes

[sunnyxmle]

thought so. thanks. i will still always love him though (:

[TyrekeCorrea]

johnny and broadway will never be separate again

[Bray1014]

im 12 and i still watch the show:)

[PhanPhoreverever]

Wheeeeeeee!  Love this guy!

[wolfmyth007]

I'm 22...is it wrong that I can sing along with the song?

[tinngrinn]

Nahh...This song is great! I'm 13...I WISH I could sing along :P I don't know all of the words yet!!

[destinyjoyxo]

@wolfmyth007 this is ageless

[Benoit564]

@wolfmyth007  no i had good memories with this show

[Benoit564]

@wolfmyth007 no i had good memories with this show.

[TheTamTam666]

@wolfmyth007 no its not haha im 16 and i love it! :P

[dork4us]

@wolfmyth007 lols nope :) you just have a young heart

[Missangels4ever]

@wolfmyth007 Naa its normal :D lol.
