@Gogoschicka1980s: Well, this was a behind-the-scenes feature and you clicked on it. What did you expect? XD

[RossEStern]

he looks so funny with the big bird legs

[jeopardy60611]

@RossEStern I didn't know until recently that the guy behind Big Bird wasn't really that tall.

[Gogoschicka1980s]

I don't like my Muppets half dressed.lol. But thanks for a gem of a post!

[Lectronimo]

Very neat to see. Were Linda and her friend on the stairs rehearsing (and part of the song), or just talking/signing to each other?

[thezaylady]

@Lectronimo I think Linda's friend was used as a "hearing" visual aid to sign in time with the music.

[collgoff]

@thezaylady Do they haired someone who knows sign Langage to help Linda with her lines?

[antsamthompson9]

I like the part where Charyl makes the AM into Dr. Nobal Price.

[tpirman1982]

@antsamthompson9 It's really interesting how they create characters for Sesame Street.

[antsamthompson9]

@tpirman1982 Yeah. 

[muppetlover16]

@antsamthompson9 Me too, btw has it ever occured to you that some of the SS staff, puppeteers etc. look/sound alike i.e

Cheryl Blaylock=Pam Arciero

Brian Meuhl=David Rudman (grey hair) and Richard Hunt (black hair)

Ed Christie=Rick Lyon (with moustache)

the list goes on and on

weird ain't it Anthony

[antsamthompson9]

@muppetlover16 it is weird.

[HCShannon]

@muppetlover16 Maybe they are actually a much smaller group of performers, than we think who are really brillant actors like Fred Savage on Family Guy where it turned out all these famous celebrities like Rush Limbaugh, Michael Moore, and many others had just been him in a costume all along! I know that isn't the case, but it's fun just to think that!

[MIKECNW]

Can't say there were none, just not that many.

A year earlier Bill Cosby completed starring on "I Spy" and the same year SS debuted, he had his first stcom, "The Bill Cosby show", not to be confused with his 80's series.
