I was terrified of this flamingo as a child. I owe countless nightmares and an irrational fear of flamingos to him. He still sends a shiver down my spine.
The difference now is if I saw him on the street I would rip his fuzzy pink head off.

THANK GOD OTHER PPL WERE SCARED OF HIM TOO! I remember this skit distinctly, this specific one in particular. That beak was so long and pointy, it was just so bizarre looking and it looked like he wanted to eat me.

Did they use the Guy Smiley muppet as backup singer? Is the backup singers the Tarnish Brothers (I Just Adore Four) ?

omg I was scared of him too!! I'm not even kidding. haha it is nice to know that I wasn't the only one afraid of him.
Back when this show was clever, intelligent, and had actual cultural references.
I miss classic Sesame Street- now it is so sanitized and filled to the brim with shallow elmo and bad music, that kids are missing out on SO many levels, and parents can't sit with their children and watch it without getting a headache from the insipidity of it all.

thank you for singlehandedly summarizing everything that I think is wrong with what passes as children's entertainment these days.
