Sesame Street - Bert and Ernie read about air

[Regyoolaguy]

Is it just me or does Ernie sound different in this sketch?

Ernie likes to play, Bert likes to read

This doesn't sound like Frank Oz as Bert. I think this was after he was Bert.

@MrTornado300

This is Frank Oz as Bert.

I wonder if Ernie and Bert's relationship sometimes represented the relationship of Frank Oz and Steve Whitmire, I know that Frank was not very happy working with steve after Jim died.

If it were me, I would enjoy working with Steve Whitmire. He is one my favorite Muppet performers.

Is this the first B&E sketch with Steve Whitmire as Ernie?

[Angie2343]

@thekingof8 No.

[MrMetalmanRock]

@thekingof8

[grasimpson]

I remember this from when I was younger. I also remember saying that bert looked so angry, I thought fire wold come out his nose.

Man, that one little desk fan must have some wicked juice pumped into it to be able to blow a book out of someone's hands like that.
