Sesame Street Episode 2895 Intro

[efil4own1isback]

If Kermit was around, that fly would be a midnight snack...

[1r1u1b1y]

Did big bird just sit on that little girl?

[islandman24]

Poor Bob. He got a fly on his nose. At least it didn't go up his nose.

[davincent98]

@islandman24 or in his mouth.

What's that video in the beginning from at 0:00?

[Marbles471]

That, I think, is from "Long Ago and Far Away." Can't think what else it would have been. (That half-second really is all the original tape has of it.)

[SCUmissy]

All of this fuss over just a fly.

And Big Bird totally dissed the girl sitting next to Gordan. You can see her trying to get back into the shot despite Big Bird almost totally blocking her out.

@SCUmissy

But he is really sitting i front of her.It only looks like more cuz he is big lol

[classicssmfan]

Well although the remake has some adult subsitutes (Celina replacing Maria, Carlo replacing Luis, and Ruthie replacing Bob), the music is better and it had more feeling. Why do you ask?

[1RichardHunt]

Because I prefer the original cast members singing it.

[Garrettk41]

Well we all have our own tastes.

[antsamthompson9]

Very nice.

[MarshalGrover]

Did tv collector post this? I don't recall him.

[classicssmfan]

Yes he did.

[Garrettk41]

Wait. I just looked this episode up on Muppet Wiki, and low and behold, it's the one where Oscar's brother Ernest visits. I've been wanting to see that one again for quite sometime now. But alas, it looks like this and the closing credits is all we have of it.

[Marbles471]

I have this episode. In fact, I'm the one who first introduced it into circulation. =) It's funny to see a copy of one's own tape end up on the interwebs when it's someone else putting it there.

I wish I could put the Oscar/Ernest scenes up, but I don't have the equipment for it.

[Garrettk41]

Perhaps you'd be able to send your video to another user and ask them to post it. Just a thought.

[Garrettk41]

Strange. I was just thinking about this song earlier today and wondering if the original version would ever get posted. Of course, this isn't the first time that's happened with me.
