[Katzi]

Hey Count...ever hear of covering your mouth & nose when you sneeze?

[d72jjpilc]

Nice memory - I bet you that one thing the Count can't count is the number of great memories I have from this show, as well as the great time i have re-living them!

[MrIam1nsane]

just 7 sneezes? If he had gotten 8 in a row he would have reached an orgasm.

[Hypergalaxy]

Fuck Twilight. The Count kicks ass. Enough said.

[dragongame2]

You can really see Jerry Nelson's head/end of the arm sleves in this. Didn't notice until today.

[madewithgaffa]

[MoreAnuk96]

Childhood memories!

This reminds me of face from nick jr!

[choxie630]

lol i agree, count was creepy in the 70s O.O

[nibelung34343]

[nibelung34343]

i loved the old count man he was so cool with that kick ass laugh

[tyrese3745]

At least the Count toned down the evil laughing a little bit. He did that scary evil laugh on the Season 4 premiere.

[Hax0rKyo]

he's a pedo, you can quote me on that.

[projektcancer]

@Hax0rKyo LOL

[27Oldboy27]

The 7th and final sneeze.....hee hee....ahh....hee....hee.....w­hat kind of sneeze is that?

[duckmanham]

The sneeze of a badass.And I know I shouldn't answer but I did just because.

[kungfujiapple]

Taken from "Sesame Street: Learning About Numbers".

It's so funny how the Count is going to proceed with his usual monologue of "Do you know why they call me the Count?", and then is distracted by the flowers.

[ClarkieandStephen]

I thought the count was a bit freaky then, and that creepy music, I'm glad they toned it down a bit. Good to see this clip after soo many years :D

[Ziffel67]

I kee kee, I kee kee, can count sneezes!

I guess The Count would love to get a cold so he can count many sneezes and coughs. Well maybe not though because then he wouldn't feel good enough to enjoy it. Thus the flowers here provide the best way to achieve sneezes to count!

[stlouisx50]

He did not scare me as a kid, but god IM 29 and a male and find him freaky!

[AnthonyP73]

So funny how he interrupts himself during his usual introduction. "Do you know wha-"!!

[sk958]

yeah i like sneezing but i dont count them...

[finnishminnow]

The Count certainly did a great job at counting the flowers and counting his own sneezes, don't you think?

[CanadaFamilyMan]

Ya, he was 1 of my favourites! Probably because my dad was from Transylvania. No joke.

[finnishminnow]

That's great!

[brightbite]

Hmmmm... are those GARLIC flowers?? o_O

[zyber9]

@brightbite If they were garlic flowers The Count would have been dead!

[smilingtrees101]

Well, to tell you guys the truth, the Count doesn't really scare me, even as a kid. But, he still scares me a bit, until they made him a bit less scarier (i think) now.

[bicchy1]

bloody psycho

[kingboru121]

uhm okay why would you put up a creepy vampire pupet to encourage kids to count? Its beyond me as to why. And why are his sneezwes wonderful. Still pretty funny

[ISNorden]

The play on two meanings of "count" (as in "Count Dracula" versus "1,2,3...") was the main reason CTW chose a vampire character to teach numbers. I do agree that the Count's vampire shtick probably scared a lot of kids until he got toned down a few years later: his hypnotic powers and visible lightning bolts scared ME when I was a girl!

[kingboru121]

He scares me Even now! :0

This segment was in a movie. Was it "ET"? Peace.
