Sesame Street: Luis Looks For Agua

[valarierenee]

As a kid i thought this was funny , as an adult I'm totally buying his thirst .

All sorts of scenarios are running though my head. Did he just escape the KKK or Zed from Pulp Fiction or was he hung and left to die int he desert like Eastwood.

The rain can't come fast enough

[stevedogan]

Anyone else notice that he turns the valves on the spicket and sink the wrong way? -He wants water but he's turning the valves to the right (closed).

Anybody have that other Agua clip where Luis (I think it was Luis, or maybe Maria) was trying to buy a glass of water & the shop owner was getting frustrated because he can't understand Spanish.

[38yofrmut]

@JuanMamaril It was a 3-part clip with Maria (Sonia Manzano) and David (the late Northern Calloway).

[aceattorney1989]

Only one person doesn't know what Agua is.

[cbsteffen]

Agua can also mean "water" in Portuguese.

[avonee1976]

Somebody didn't pay the water bill! LOL!

[deltalady72]

The pipes looked rather rusty on the set. No wonder he poured the on top of his head! When the water goes into his glass, it's sort of yellowish.

[snuffereet]

wonder if Luis had a shot or two of tequila before filming this. His faces were always funny. :)

[quixote22]

my first spanish word as a kid! Thank you Luis!

[mindstormsabrewin]

These poor actors in children's television are forced to work awful conditions!

[singinglawnchair]

Does anyone know where I can find the Alphaworld (I think that's what it was called) bits from Sesame Street? I remember it had a little girl that would open the door and she would be in a different dimension with objects that began with the letter that day.

[KraZvEgGyBuRgEr]

@singinglawnchair I've been looking for that too! I can't find any.

[ConnDevi88]

This video screams to be a new meme.

[38yofrmut]

Does anyone have the clips from season 16 where Luis breaks his arm & show him barechested (nice hot body! broad chest!) trying to put a shirt on?

What about the 3 part Agua segment w/Sonia Manzano playing someone stranded in the desert but only fluent in Spanish & Northern Calloway as a vendor she stumbles upon who doesn't understand what she's asking for?

[ShadesBelow03]

I remember hiM getting stuck halfway down Oscar's can at the end of one episode!

[38yofrmut]

@38yofrmut As I said, Emilio Delgado has a hot body including beautiful black hair, olive complexion, & nice broad chest, shoulders, and arms! I loved the episodes from season 16 where he breaks his arm while trying to fix something and later on they show him going through the problems of everyday life with a cast on your arm. Including a scene with him barechested trying to put a shirt on!

[yumyumluckycharms]

I clicked on this cuz the title had my name XD

[jtomally9681]

@yumyumluckycharms Your name is Agua?

[yumyumluckycharms]

@jtomally9681 no... Luis LOL

[jtomally9681]

@yumyumluckycharms I figured that. I was joking.

[Eddie62070]

I always loved the goofy faces Luis would make...lol

[wednesday181]

I learned so much great little Spanish words from Luis as a kid (and it is "Luis" - the character's name in full is "Luis Rodriguez"). This and a numbers song (that cannot be found on the internet, sadly) in Spanish that Luis did were absolute favorites of mine as a kid. I was thrilled when he toured a mall in our area in the early 80s and I got to meet him and everyone in the crowd got to sing along. Great fun, and his work on Sesame Street is something that will always make me smile.

"embarassing acting" - No Way ayame316. Luis should have been given an emmy nomination for this perfomance. This sketch defines Luis the same as Being Green defines Kermit and Rubber Ducky defines Ernie. Simply Amazing Luis!!!

[ayame316]

I remember this one like it was yesterday. I feel bad for Luis having to do that embarrasing acting, and as a kid I also felt bad for him...cause all he could say was AGUA!

[stegaflaps]

This sketch made me thirsty.................and irritated that he didnt get his agua!

[Carzand]

@stegaflaps NGL I reached for my glass after this.

[zacandtaylorrule]

Wow! I have not seen this since I was a kid. Thanks for posting.

[jtomally9681]

Sorry everyone. I was wrong. It is Luis.

[jtomally9681]

His mane is Louise. Not Luis.

[quirpco]

Oh, the agony of dying of thirst in the middle of a television studio!

[stevedogan]

@quirpco Cute.

[lurch321]

As a kid, this clip always made me thirsty!

[jusme1721]

lol...

[mydoggie01]

I like this clip but there is one thing wrong, you can't drink a glass of rain because of stuff that is in the rain.

[ulij20]

You can tell that he didn't actually drink it. One of the pipes that produced the "rain" was apparently rusted; that's why the water looked brown. He only pretended to drink it (so as not to become sick) and poured the rest of it on himself.

[colleen4ever]

@mydoggie01 When you're that thirsty you don;t care WHERE it comes from!

[SadiyaDurrani]

hahaha i remember imitating this as kids lol

[mygirlfriendisback]

LLLLOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­!!!!!!!!!!!!! SUPER LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Luis is thirsty

[lamar296]

he so didnt drink that

[babtothebone]

lmao
