Sesame Street- Bert's Blanket(full and better quallity)

[ZNKChannel]

The sheep who said "Oh. So, I suppose someone waves a magic wand & poof! Our wool turns you into a blanket, & lands on your be-aah-aah-aah-aah-ed!" was that Henson or Clash?

[DismalSpectre00]

Wait, Ernie sleeping over at the Count's? Man, he's a glutton for punishment. XDDD

[athull08]

A nice dull grey - that's rather contradictory

[zacandtaylorrule]

Interesting to see Bert wuth the sheep instead of ernie.

[CatAmongPidgeons]

wattamack4, I love you. Cheers for uploading these.

[StefanoFan27]

Awesome.

[finnishminnow]

Me too.

[finnishminnow]

Ooh I love this song so much.

[maxchico4]

I remember this song so well! I must have had it recorded on a tape and watched it several times, and I loved that girl sheep's part so much!

[SSgtjasonn]

Classic

[lampheadkangaroo]

The parts that the she-sheep sings, to me, sounds like the part from the Eddie Money song "Take Me Home Tonight" where the female back-up singer sings. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

[VelgagsJoatmon]

Yeah, I know what you're talking about. The "Just like Ronnie sang, 'Be my little baby'" part. :o)

[ilovemayo123]

yeah

[gameshowluvr86]

Some parts of this song kind of remind me of Have You Seen Her by the Chi-Lites.

[setheurovision94]

That's a terrific song, both informative and really catchy! Wonderful. (Btw, nice to hear that the Count has found a friend in Ernie.)

[2199]

Does anybody have the one were Kermit is singing with his nephew in Scotland?

[hussainmana]

can any one find the name of the lady sheep ?

[Babe5677]

I remember this I was only little it was so fab. I used to get loads of pillows infront of the TV with a duvet and a drink of milk or somtimes water and I used to get comfy and watch Sesame Street when it was all over I put the duvet and pillows away. Then when Sesame Street come on the next day. I did the same thing. The sheep are cute. What is the name of the lady sheep?

[originalcynn]

dam, this is a favorite tune of mine from SS, i am 23 from Bahamas, and stuff like these always make me feel 7 and 6 years of age......the innocence of a child is golden

[Marbles471]

Hooray! This short is still alive! (judging from people's comments and also from the "dinging" transition at the begining, this came from a very recent airing.)

[samhaskell]

I saw this on "Sesame Street" in November 2006. I saw the new version of "Everybody Eats" the same day. I saw this on "Sesame Street" in September 1997.

[VaultMasterDBT]

I saw this on SS in like, December of '89..

[Umbriaga]

this made my day! thanks

[UNCLESWHOLLOP]

Berts blanket is a cracker... I want one just like it!!! MMMMMMMMMMM!

[quangdx]

thank you so much for uploading this, been looking for it for years. takes me back to my childhood.

[glowworm2]

I had no idea that Bert had so much fun at night when Ernie isn't there to bother him! LOL! That female sheep sure can sing! I love the ending-cute song.

[lovemeg5186]

Frank oz is good at singing too. He does it with much inthusiasm. I love it!

[adnohser]

wow thank you for adding this song its one of sesame street best songs ever...it made my day

[neocelestia]

Thanks wattamack4! I've been waiting for this since I ran across the small clip posted a while ago. Thanks for the memories! ^_^

[LincolnHeightsrocks]

It's funny how for a few years there after Jim Henson died and they found a new performer for Ernie, they had Bert go solo for a while, trying to make interesting skits for the straightman by himself.

[Marbles471]

Actually, it occured to me recently---everyone always says Ernie is the funny one and Bert is the straight man. But if you think about it, it's actually BERT we're laughing at most of the time. Ernie does funny, silly things, but it's mostly to get a reaction out of Bert. And it's those expressions of frustration, slack-jawed looks of astonishment, and exasperated mutterings that are actually where most of the humor's coming from.

[Eagle3396]

Your right. Berts angry unibrow is an example of his hilarious reaction. ha ha its priceless.

[VelgagsJoatmon]

Exactly. Goofball/straight man comedy centers around that balance. One does goofy and silly things and the level-headed one usually finishes the humor off by highlighting the absurdity in the other's actions either by reaping the consequences or reacting humorously.

[LEACOOKIE]

i was so shocked wen i saw this on the other day thank you sooooooooo much

[youtookmynamebiotch]

Oh, YAY! I've been looking and looking for this song. This was one of my favorite skits! Thanks so much!

[captaintakemeshoppin]

That female sheep can't sing; she can SANG!!!! I'd rather watch classix like these than an episode of "Elmo's World," where Elmo sings everything in the tune of "Jingle Bells." Soooo freakin' repetative and no variety!!

[Millerbt12]

diddo

[Eagle3396]

I agree. Elmo's world is repetetive. This song is kind of a paradoy of the Shangrila's song leader of the pack based off of Bert saying get the picture. Sheep: Yes we See!

[gameshowluvr86]

Someone needs to give that girl sheep a recording contract with like Arista or Virgin! That child can SANG!! :)

[blulicious2]

@gameshowluvr86

LOL, someone get Simon or Clive Davis on the phone. The girl sheep sounds better than some of these people today who have recording contracts.

[millcake16]

I had no idea they still had classics like these in today's show. I assumed they were all gone.

[ISNorden]

Been waiting for this song...many, many thanks!

[MptLvr]

Hey, thanks! Congrats too! Did u happen to get this from today's episode? This sketch was in it. :P

[wattamack4]

Yes I did.

[MptLvr]

Kewl, thanks and congrats again! :P
