Sesame Street - Episode 1709 (camp scenes) 1/2

[alexeidarling]

That scene with Aunt May asking who has the food reminds me of that "King's Picnic" sketch!

You bring the potato salad, sure thing king

[MrTornado300]

And After Aunt May tells rules:

Muppets: Ernie and Bert Follow the Arrows

Film: Camera zooms in on growing flowers

Cartoon: Willie Wimple: Land Population

Song: There's a Bird on Me

Muppets: Anything Muppet girl reads word "Hug" with Herry

Cartoon: Pinball Number Count #4

I just have one brief question about episode 1708, I once saw a scene from that episode where Big Bird was actually swimming in a lake, how did they do that? was it a Blue screen effect? Did they actually put the whole suite in the water? or did they just film it with the upper half of the suite?

Then, after the hiking scene:

Muppets: Grover counts with his echo

Cartoon: Four carpenters

Celebrity: Bill Cosby counts four kids

Muppets: The Boy Who Cried Monster

Cartoon: Sand J/j

Muppet & Kid Moments: Bert and John-John- Lost Paperclips

Here are the inserts after the first scene:

Bert plays "Follow the Arrows (how appropriate, considering what just happened)

Film of flowers growing on a tree

Willie Wimple chops down trees

"There's a Bird on Me"

Herry and an AM girl read the word Hug

Pinball #4

@schemer1991

Are you sure that's not #1710 you're thinking of there? I see the pic there of BB back on Sesame Street with Snuffy and it says #1710 on it. I may want to check Muppet Wiki on that.

That's okay about episode #1708 (November 24, 1982), MarshalGrover. Like they say, you can't win them all.

[pbscraze]

That's right. We don't always get what we want.

Originally broadcasted on November 25, 1982, this episode appears to be rebroadcasted about 20 years later, on Friday, August 23, 2002, at about 4 minutes before 01:00AM on Noggin, as part of "Sesame Street Unpaved" (1999-2003).

[Garrettk41]

Not only that, but apparently this Camp Echo Rock saga was repeated sometime two years later, as part of the sixteenth season, only with different inserts.
