Wow! That grouch in the background looks so much like the original orange Oscar. I'm guessing he was made from the same pattern. Heck, before I read that this was from 1989 I saw him in the pic and thought it was going to be a 1969 sketch with orange Oscar singing.
In the early to mid 80's, they turned that orange grouch into a short-lived friend for Oscar named Oswaldo, who came from Puerto Rico! Anyone else remember that?
I remember Oswaldo. He was seen in "Muppet Family Christmas." However, that's not the orange grouch who was shown here. Oswaldo had more of a 'foreign grouch' type of look.
is this the episode that ends with Oscar and his band playing their own version of the Sesame Street theme over the Barkley closing credits? If so, can you post the credits sequence from this episode please?
Nice tribute to the original Oscar. Another Orange Grouch.

I don't remember this but I love it. What year was this? It was probably in the 80's or 90's.

I thought the same thing. This is cool, but that would have been even cooler!

I heard that when Oscar was re-made as a green puppet, the original orange Oscar puppet was torn apart by Henson himself.
