[matteoiseuro]

[Trund27]

Maybe this was shown more in Canada than in the US.... maybe that makes it rare; where you live!

[MrPhoenis]

it says rare ending, but this is the only ending i remember

[sfpopp1]

I only saw the one with the sundays at the ending.

[L00NGB00W]

For some reason this was my favorite ending. And the only one I really recall.

Mmmm. red stuff... =P

[Trund27]

@L00NGB00W XD Me too! Red powder!

[TheTallMan35]

You'll have good luck after watching this. Nostalgia has that effect.

[70Kenny]

I watched this for the first time in at least 30 years 2 weeks ago, and I cannot get this song out of my head. HELP!

[OofusTwillip]

@70Kenny - The song is "When I'm Not Near the Girl That I Love", from "Finian's Rainbow". Jim Henson did a lot of collaborating with Raymond Scott (a bandleader & composer best known for composing the really cool backing music used in classic WB and "Ren & Stimpy" cartoons). However, Scott was also an electronics engineer, who invented amazing synthesizers. Whenever you hear synthesized tones on early "Sesame Street" segments, you're hearing Scott's work.

@OofusTwillip Fantastic information, Thank you very much

[ghostinthemean]

Finally I found this classic piece of art.

[tfranklin]

Oh no! They killed it!

[jtomally9681]

This was not a rare ending.

[OofusTwillip]

@jtomally9681 - Yes it is. This is the original ending, which a lot of kids thought showed the ball being killed in the grinder. So, after only airing a few times, the segment was pulled, and the ending was changed to the one with the 3 cherries dropping onto 3 sundaes.

[jtomally9681]

@OofusTwillip I don't know what you're talking about because I saw this ending all the time and the three cherries ending I saw rarely.

[LyssaIsLosingIt]

this used to be my favorite episode...and y lie? it still is :D

[CanadaFamilyMan]

Nice carousel music!

[masushan]

This is also the version that I remember. My fave clip from Sesame Street ever!

[iluvupeggysue]

Yes! This is the one I remember seeing. Thanks for putting this up!

[CrestwoodRocks]

This was always played when the number 3 was the number sponser of the day

[burnaamij]

Yeah isn't the sundaes version the rare one? I know I saw this version many times, and don't remember the sundaes.

[LeftSock06]

This is the ending I saw as a kid, so I guess I got lucky. I used think how amazing it is that powder comes out.

[LeftSock06]

I used to love this when I was was little. I hadn't seen it in almost thirty years, but I remembered it so well! I used to dream about having something like this in the house.

[AdamJ617]

I for some reason like this ending better.

[Maskedmutant]

me too

[DreamDancer82]

I can only imagine how long this took to make.
