Sesame Street - a count of 4

[SnugglySara]

I don't see no "Nobody".

[hamsteradorable]

maybee thats why i like listening to Pink floyd

[ngradrian]

0:57 lol

[JasonMC72]

I felt like I was tripping while watching this classic Sesame clip.

[zangazoo2007]

This is a remake. The original didn't have kids counting.

[CanadaFamilyMan]

@zangazoo2007 Sorry, you're wrong. I don't know where you got that idea. This is completely unchanged from the early days of SSt. Trust me, I remember.

[wsbtam]

At least, they left the rubber band face out this time.

[VideyoJunkei]

Limbo, The Organized Mind (1974) - Jim Henson

this movie shows the rig used to make the face at the end!!

[CanadaFamilyMan]

Sounds to me like this was a kindergarten class, and a very fun one at that!

[domenglp]

/' vby'?" m

mk.' .'

[wwasucks]

i remember watching this when i was like 3 (1997) lmao

[Deanmo23]

From 1970.

[zhelder]

I think it's actually from 1974.

[MuzikJunkyAES]

Gorgeous electronic sounds! It's because of "Sesame Street" and "The Electric Company" that I became interested in sound design! Who's the voice? Peace.

[Akira625]

Bill "Rosko" Mercer.

[ultragor]

There were 69 squares, before they turned into just 4! ;-D

[JasonMC72]

@ultragor I just counted those squares and came up with 69 as well. Rain Man's Dustin Hoffman's Raymond Babbit would have guessed 69 immediately!

[Jamiepeavler]

Oh, now I remember this! (chuckle)

[FabHckyBbe]

Anyone else strongly reminded of a spirograph?  Same general era, early to mid 70s

[green8man7]

yes, i was thinking the same.

[MiGrm9]

@FabHckyBbe, I used to have several spirographs. This totally reminds me of that.

[SnugglySara]

@FabHckyBbe I loved Spirograph. Ask the Vermont Country Store to bring it back!

[tod4533]

00:59 there are 70 (interesting) pretty deep and powerful

[d72jjpilc]

I remember both this and the computerized '10' clip. I liked the computer animation and background sounds back then, and like them even more now, because they bring back those memories!

[torpedoboy4]

that's fucked. can't believe this stuff didn't scare me as a child.

[brightbite]

Everyone keeps saying this guy's voice sounds like a serial killer or a child molester. I think he just sounds like a baritone black dude.

[lion371]

I remember the cout of 10 fim kinna like this.

[3rdeyebass]

The Twilight Zone goes to kindergarten. The drugs were definitely

better back then. :-)

[screenplay777]

I remember this creeping me out a bit when I was a kid.

[happy7117]

Sounds like Paul Frees who voiced KARR in the Knight Rider episode "KITT vs KARR!"

[loveutoto]

"What's the score?"

"Four!"

"That's a bore."

[Wendy313]

I know I'm probably way off here, but this guys voice makes me think of Morgan Freeman.. These clips seemed scary to me as a child. Now they're just plain weird!

[Kevmike68]

Wow, I remember this one! Very cool!

[DragonLord1975]

This and #10 are an acid trip waiting to happen.

[kll510]

groovy man LOL

[lovemeg5186]

I like this one the ten one was rather trippy

[totalactress]

That was scary.

[Brinah]

his voice is so mellow!

[TerryT1976]

This really reminds me a lot of THE ELECTRIC COMPANY with the Scanimate visuals and yes, it is creepy!

[3KNOCKS]

I REMEMBER THIS ONE. IT IS GOOD.

[terry1919]

how many is that??? ugh 68

[MGHSHour2]

anyone have the baker skit of the bnumber 4?

[TruSlack]

All Praze the Scanimate Machine! Very cool animation.

[fixman88]

Amen, brother! I remember this now! I loved this part! Are any of the other numbers on YouTube? There is currently only one Scanimate system still operational; it's owned by one of the people who helped develop it. I bet I could have some fun if I had one (of course, I have neither the money nor the room for it!) :(

[nekkonell]

This is WAY trippier than all the other SS clips I've seen...

[Ervicito]

I almost didn't recognize this one until the kids started cheering and laughing, especially when they showed those 69 polygons on the screen. That's when it hit home. Like time I saw this skit was when I was 3 or 4. YIPES!

[Pikachurules]

Me too! Me too! I wanna see that H skit too! I've already requested that one a few times.

[MIKECNW]

wonderfull examples of early computer animation which TEC was quite known for. BTW, anyone have that 1 were luis and the kid were talking about the letter H?

[chambert]

Yes, I want that one too.  I remember that cool piano background music.

[raposofan]

Oh my God me too, I was just thinking of that one with the H. The child screams, "HIPPOPOTAMUS!"

[TheDancingCookie]

Still creepy after all these years - I don't know why - I swear there's a sublimal message or something in this one!

[CheezNapkin]

there is.

There are 69 of those squares.

[cjdunn]

holy crap you're right Ronald! there is 69 squares.. lmao xD

[terry1919]

I counted 68

[archivista]

"Now let's see if you can try, to see how many DOTS go by..." [- the one with 10]

[cpowers94]

Trippy.

[ronaldraymond]

um...ok i just found a nice little easter egg. i counted the many squares and guess how many there are. 69! HA HA HA HA!! i'm not kidding - count 'em yerself!!!

[cjdunn]

Ah the memories!

[Larynxa]

The music was done by Raymond Scott, the electrical engineer and former bandleader/composer, who invented many synthesizers and also composed a lot of quirky pieces of music that were used in Warner Brothers and Ren & Stimpy cartoons.

[thekingof8]

Who's voice is that?

[MacLeaper]

That was funny at the end with tons of squares showing up to count. I've never found either of these type videos scary-they're pretty fun. Man! They did such cool stuff with computers on Sesame Street in the 1980s! :-)

[raposofan]

This clip is 1970s

[ronaldraymond]

whew! a little less scary than the 10 one with that dead ghost dude. but the barry white voice still gives me the willies. and those fart-sounding noises in the background?? i like the funny surprise towards the end though.
