Just to clarify, no computer animation here all done by hand by one guy, Dan Ivanick , I did all voices, my name is John Barilla.

@wattamack4 I just found out on that website being mentioned here it first appeared in 1987.

I'm still amazed that a lot of people remember this character , I was the voice and if there were other characters like the elephant , Idid those voices also , I have I think 6 of these but I'm not sure , they are on video VHS so I hope I can convert them and post all of them because the two that are on here have gotten some welcomed attention , Thanks for all the nice thoughts , John

Yes there were. One with traps. One with a snake and one with clever ways to escape a crock.

Thanks for all the kind thoughts. My name is John Barilla and there were actually six of these spots and they were fun to do. I was his voice. Glad you all remember the character so fondly

Know why he's my favorite character on sesame street? Cuz' he's cool. ^_*
I love the design of these---the detective is nothing but bunch of balloons wearing a hat, and the backgrounds are jagged abstractions of bright color----and dig them crazy panning shots with those tilted angles! Fun stuff.
Were there any others besides this one and the one with the hippo?

This was actually from the late 1980's.

If you got on Muppet wiki it says that these sketches were from the early days of the show.Unless it's just this sketch it's from the late 80's?
