Sesame Street - Grover sells Kermit hair-care supplies

[Blondiechickie1972]

1:33 his toupee lmao

[cj222100]

Always die laughing every time Kermit's exasperated and curls his nose!!! Almost LMAO when Kermit yelled and ran out of the house! Sesame St. just isn't the same w/out him!

[jeopardy60611]

This is typical salesmanship. Give something away for free and make money selling the accessories that you need with it.

I've noticed in a lot of sketches that the muppets have to go behind the couch, or otherwise off camera, to have one guy place something on another. That's probably because it would be impossible, for example, to manipulate Grover on camera, without the puppeteers being visible, to secure the hair on Kermit's head

[KerrenkProductions]

Kermit's trying too hard.

"The last time you tried to sell me earmuffs and I do not have ears, you tried to sell me a nosewarmer and I do not have a nose, you tried to sell me a toothbrush and I do not have any teeth! AHHH!"

When will he realize that Grover is oblivious to EVERYTHING?

[brianberneker]

"A lovely toupee to adorn your brainholder" :P

[Charla1606]

Always looks like Grover's rapin Kermit when they go behind sofa!

[Blondiechickie1972]

@Charla1606 yeah hahaha :)

[blisscottage]

This is the funniest thing ever...

Hmm...gotta prequalify those prospects, ask the right questions and look for nonverbal cues.

[LillyLillistrand]

Greetings froggy baby sweetie honey! :D

[babycoo1712]

Funny :)

[Kryztal77]

KERMIT IS ME BOYYY!!!! xD

[xNightmarexVampsx]

This is a perfect example of the sheer genius of Jim Henson: Mixing humour with learning to appeal not only to children, but to adults as well. Rest in peace, Mr. Henson. <3

[NaiTaiDai]

Kermit should just pretend he's not home when Grover comes calling, shouldn't he?

[tantive4]

The shear amount of expression Jim Henson managed to get out of Kermit always amazes me. That and the incredible double-act with Frank Oz.

[cstoczyn]

This Is From 1983-1984

[cstoczyn]

Kermit:(panicked): AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!­!!!!!

[cstoczyn]

Kermit:(grumpy): YYYYEEECCCHHH!!!!!!

[cstoczyn]

IT'S A TRICK!!!!!

[cstoczyn]

Kermit:(disgusted): SHEESH!

[cstoczyn]

Poor Grover

[ShazeemKhan]

I love when Kermit does that thing with his mouth!! LOL

[cstoczyn]

@ShazeemKhan He Screamed, Huh?

[mrmoore1970]

@Cuteblondie1972 LMAO

[cstoczyn]

Grover:(hungry): Where's The Fridge?

[SaiyanLady]

These are soooo funny!

[Ptslgd99]

I liked Grover as a kid and I still like him now I laughed so hard at this video tears were coming out of my eyes

[zacandtaylorrule]

"Froggy, Baby Sweetie Honey" Haha!

[pokinsmot]

of course you look silly!

[dubs19842009]

Bet Grover just tried the same tactic to Fat Blue, earlie that day.

[mcrrocks80]

cut his head out grover!!!!!!

[xNightmarexVampsx]

"Who is it?"

"It is your old pal Grover!"

"Yeesh...."

[856956sinewavetones]

1:09-1:13

Kermit: Grover, were ya taking me? I DONT WANNA GO BEHIND THE GOD DAMN--

That was hilarious!!!!

[tpirman1982]

@856956sinewavetones Wrong, it's "I don't wanna go behind the couch"

[856956sinewavetones]

@tpirman1982 well it SOUNDED like he said: ""I don't wanna go behind the god damn--" even though he actually said: "I don't wanna go behind the couch"

[ZNKChannel]

I wonder why Kermit didn't mention the sunglasses? That would've been good for his protest: Kermit: The last time you tried to sell me earmuffs, I do not have any ears. You tried to sell me a nose-warmer, I do not have a nose! You tried to sell me a toothbrush, I do not have teeth! (opens mouth, says "Ah") You tried to sell me sunglasses! I do have eyes, but you need a nose & ears to hold 'em! No ears, no nose, no teeth, so whatever it is you're trying to sell, I don't want any cents! Good-bye!

[Garrettk41]

@ZNKChannel I'm not sure; that event may have occured after this one.

[johneastmond]

Sowhateveritisnowyouaretryingt­osellIdon'twantanyt#*%$ksogood­byeGrover! Kermit too has had to get very good at rejecting skills.

[doctorwhorox]

Always found it funny how Grover attempted love-ins with Kermit. "FROGGY BAYBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"

[DakariKingMykan]

I was always freaked by Kermit when he pops upf ormt eh couch

I kept thinking he would pop up at the side of my bed int he dark with teeth and GROWL. WHEW

[muppetfan33]

I just had an idea for a beginning of a Kermit and Grover or whoever skit. Kermit is sitting in his living room figuring out a four letter word for amphibian, then he hears a knock on the door, and he says "Hark. I think I hear someone at the door." He gets up, and it's whoever. That's about as far as I've gotten so far.

[thedarkness97]

@muppetfan33 Maybe Grover trying to sell him flippers? An d he doesnt need then due to the fact he is a Frog :)

[headzipper714]

kermit doesn't have any hair, nose, teeth, ears

[TheWarnerSister]

"Grrrrrreeting, Froggie-baby-sweetie-honey!"

"GO AWAY."

[maprincessetrinity]

j'adore grover.

[rayandreina]

When it comes to Grover changing others into his own designs (Kermit, Fat Blue, etc.), here is his career scoreboard -- each victory counting as two points, while a "draw" would only count as one point:

Grover: 1,000s!

His opponents, victims, etc.: 0! You heard me: Zero!

And so unless you're a Black Belt Karate expert or something like that, there really wouldn't be any point in resisting.

[Purpleicious6666]

Grover-Greetings Froggy Baby Sweetie Honey! LOL! XD

[karatcha]

Must persist to get in. Like "important must" for salespersons.

[FOOPSPY123]

1:23 awesome!

[FOOPSPY123]

i think he did!

that just kinda puts me off sesame street

[aerinsoleris]

"Greetings to Froggy Baby sweetie honey!"

rofl

oh Grover you're too adorable!

[txpipedad]

Love this one! Except it cut off Grover's "Where's the fridge?" line at the end.

[logaritmakosinus1]

he s raping kermit behind that sofa

[battybuddy]

And remember: I'm not just the president of the Hair Club For Frog, I'm also a client.

[rayandreina]

Whenever Grover sees Kermit, he always says, in effect: "Do not try to resist, Mr. Frog; I am stronger in one arm than you are in all fours! Actually, I am not that strong, but I am wiry."

[soseztheleadr]

This one is one of my faves.  ^^

[astrotrain1]

You just can't get this type of Sesame Street anymore... the "new" street has noting compared to the old one.

[CR100692]

True, however there is still a lot of really good stuff. I thought so to until I actually watched it. Mad Men is really good, and it has Frank Oz.

[MarshalGrover]

You'd consider Sesame Street god if you stopped comparing it the old days and just enjoying it now.

[Garrettk41]

I respect that, but it's hard if you grew up with the Old School.

[DisMupPix010]

@MarshalGrover

Agreed.

Sesame Street may have gone through some changes but its goal is still the same; to educate and entertain children with its great cast of Muppets and humans. :-)

[Paulywint]

@astrotrain1 True

[happyfa5]

@astrotrain1 I agree. Kermit and Grover were such a combo together.

[gonzalez239]

@astrotrain1 its cuz they lost kermit....bad choice of plans

[TheodorDreckImOhr]

@astrotrain1 greetings froogy baby sweety honey

[EijiFan7]

a lovely toupee to adorn your brain holder lmao!

[mdumas43073]

"I'll lock up!"

[alexvlk]

I just can't help but hear Yoda trying to sell something to Kermit

[karkovice10]

That's because it's the same actor who voices both characters. :)

[karatcha]

That tactic is somehow like "BELIEVE ME, I'M A LIAR".

[karatcha]

There are 6 episode about Grover's job with Kermit as I've ever watched. But episode with weather machine ain't related with 5 others anymore.

[1980sVideoVault]

I thought at the point Kermit shook his head going "Huuuaaaaagggghh!" that it would knock the wig off. I remember the other clip with the original voiced Telly as he sold Kermit a head warmer, and the one with Grover, Herry & some other monster as a team. (Hi-yup!), who tried to fix Kermit's plumbing, telephone, and the lights, but they repeated a pattern so neither one of them was taken care of. I'd love to see both of those, again.

[Darren50001]

Oh wow, Kermit looks stupid with the toupee! That's classic! Even Grover said he looked terrible too! What an honest salesman!

[ezziera]

Grover only said it cos he wanted to convince Kermit to buy the comb and stuff to make the toupee look better :-P

[mandaroxsox]

no...grover...NO I DONT WANNA GO BEHIND THE COUCH!!! -

[bezzybecks123]

yh LOL KERMIT IS HILLARIOUS!

[TheNoleboo]

Sales people are sooo full of sh*t

[Blondiegreeneyes72]

ouch closed door on nose at 00:39

[Blondiegreeneyes72]

yeesh at 00:07 ;D

[redfox409]

Grover I see why you got fired as a salesman. Now you do almost the same thing at Charlies Restruant. poor Kermit, poor Fat Blue.

[brightbite]

Gee, when the heck is Grover gonna sell Froggy some flipper warmers or something?

[deanster57]

well i don't mind salesman but grover looks cute as one-tori

[swingindoorspro]

0:33 lol!

[Garrettk41]

"I don't wanna go behind the couch!"

Gosh Kermit, take a chill pill. What's so dangerous back there?

[MarshalGrover]

He just doesn't want any part in what Grover's trying to do.

[HoboTater]

Yeah

[sweetlife031]

@MarshalGrover

You are probably correct lol....do you suppose as the show went on they discouraged such action? Cuz it honestly seemed as thouh Grover was raping Kermit.

[Garrettk41]

Grover can be mischievous, but he would never do a thing like that.

[angelgirl7473]

@Garrettk41 LOL it is when Grover is in the House~!!

[cstoczyn]

@Garrettk41 Poor Kermit

[pandojem]

LOL

[glowworm2]

"You know what,Froggy?"

"What?"

"You look terrible!" XD!

[Corafreakshow]

ha ha

[byw613]

Any other skits, like the one where Telly comes to the house?

[DCism]

Thanks for uploading another episode in the funny & hilarious episodes of Grover as a Salesman. You Rock man.

[TheLilithChronicles]

hahahahahaha

[TheOtherUncle]

"A lovely toupee to adorn your brain holder."

[hoopersghost]

The way Grover forces the wig onto Kermit before the poor frog can protest "I don't have hair"...it'd make me deathly scared of salesman for the rest of my life, if I'd seen it as a kid.

[Beldamshadow]

1:20 - The funniest Kermit expression I've ever seen, and that's saying something if you know Kermit.

[MuppetPro]

What year was this?

[Jbrangwynne53]

I'd say 1983.

[JanksterProductions]

"Greetings, froggy baby sweetie honney!"

...I love Grover.

[jonnytbirdzback]

0:33 would crack me up! Sounded more like a dying swan!

[antsamthompson9]

"Greesy kid stuff." LOL!

[muppetfan33]

If I were Kermit, I would've run out of the house, too!

[Jbrangwynne53]

"This has to be my favorite Kermit/Grover sketch. In particular, I love Jim's performance as Kermit in this one XD

[GroverKent]

Grover needs to sell used cars.

[Angie2343]

Jim had tal-ent! =D
