Snuffy was my fav.. then cookie monster! I love this! <3 I remember watching this when I was a kid every morning ... like almost 20 yrs ago.. wow! thanks for putting this up!
snuffy was in all my nightmares when i was a kid, but looking at him now he's just a big elephant! he's cute! and big bird rules, so does the cookie monster...
Gosh, this is awesome. They don't make fantastic references in children's shows anymore. At least.. I don' think so. But way to pay hommage to Gallagher and Shean... who's doing THAT anymore????
This took place in the 80's in which Jerry Nelson gave the role to Martin P. Robinson, so probably Martin was trying to do the same voice as Jerry did.
Man, you know it must have been ridiculously hard to coordinate all those moves inside Snuffy's costume, with all the foot movements synchronized, and then the guy at front had to do the eyes, eyelashes, nose, and mouth! Now THAT is talent.
I think his voice sounds like that because this is back when Marty Robinson was mocking Jerry Nelson's Snuffy. Jerry Nelson was Snuffy's original performer. Marty eventually gave Snuffy a more excited personality. He did the same thing when he replaced Brian Meehl as Telly.
I remember this from waaay back. I didn't know what they were doing then, so once I learned about vaudeville I thought of it in the context of this skit.
Incidentally, the Kids In The Hall have done great vaudeville parodies (McGillicutty & Green/McGillicutty & Kurosawa, B & K), and more recently Swisgar and Toki made an attempt at "metal vaudeville" on Metalocalypse.
same here, i'd like to see the one where everyone first realized he was real... I mean I was too young to remember it. So I'd like to jog my memory with that ... I remember it was in the newspapers XD
I know, and I always used to think he was so cute. Now it's almost painful to watch him, he can't really move around very much... :( But how could you not love Snuffy!?
A parody of Mr. Gallagher and Mr. Sean.
