I created this slideshow last night to protest the legal threats which forced SenhorBundy to take down his collection of classic "Sesame Street" clips. Having suffered a similar fate in the past, I can't help agreeing with the users who think YouTube, copyright owners, and vintage TV fans need to work out a better solution.

P.S. I added a few new slides to help people who couldn't read the text in the second screenshot--and enough background music to cover the extra time. Enjoy!

  • I got 3 notices from SW (cause I had posted segments they posted here [though I posted them first]). However, they're allowing the content to stay on. So, it's no big deal.

    And is that "I Fought the Law" I hear?

  • Thank goodness Sesame Workshop is usually willing to listen to the fans who upload clips themselves...after the incident that led me to pull/move most of my Sesame collection, it's ironic that we've finally got unofficial permission from the owners.

    P.S. Yes, you identified the first background song correctly; I also mentioned the title in the end credits.

  • Looks like 2 other YT membered have either had their accounts closed or suspended.

    Raposofan and somebody else who I don't know.

  • I have 1 videotape with old Sesame-street clips from the Netherlands, recorded in 1996. That's a recent year, but in '96 there were a lot of classic clips shown in Dutch, such as the 12 pinball count. But now I have read this video, I think I will wait until the confusion has been calmed down about Sesame-clips and everything.

    And: I Fought the Law again. Yay! :D

  • I guess this is due to the fact that since CTW has their own channel on YT now,they've gotten strict on their copyright being uploaded.

    Ah well,the good thing is that they're at least willing to let have an option to keep them up or not.

  • I also wonder why some clips aren't seen in their entirty?

    Case in point, the E&B skit where the 2 of them fight over the chair to watch TV and of course Herry joins them.

  • 1 thing that bothers me is it's very hard to type up the individual videos to any meaage board.

    At MC I just type up whatever it is I see and hope the other track it down.
