Sesame Street - Peacock (1-20)

[TinyDancer500]

FYI: The music is an old-time (1900!) song called "A Bird in a Gilded Cage".

A very rare performance of a solo trombone! (with narratrice)

When I was a kid I thought it was a turkey.

What a crack-up, when he walks away from his feathers. And the background music is just great. :)

When I was little, as all little kids probably do, I associated peacocks sononomusly with NBC. This used to confuse my little brain. lol.

This peacock clip was from September, 1973

1-20 in Living Color...BTW, this Peacock has 20 feathers while the original NBC Peacock had 11 (the current NBC bird has 6).

Damn that brings back some pleasent memories.

[tyrese3745]

The 11 feather NBC logo lasted from the1979-80 sesason till early 1986, when the current logo made its debut.

[tyrese3745]

Looks just like the classic NBC peacock logo.

[weprin2]

That's one of my favorites.

[DontBeTrippin]

The peacock's feathers look like a combination of the original NBC peacock and the Columbia Pictures Television logo from the 70s.

[culpit]

I always laughed whenever it showed the peacock's bare behind.

[BigBoiJC]

this is what the Peacock was doing after he got fired from NBC

[jbl1975]

Hey, when did NBC get involved? LOL

[ISNorden]

It can't be much older than late 1972; this clip appeared in Episode 406, the fourth season premiere.
