Sesame Street - Adventure!

Here is an 80's cartoon that I kept but don't care too much about. I guess I'm just a "70's only" Sesame Street fan, although there were a few segments from the 80's I liked.

I think the 70's Sesame Street ruled. It was the Golden Age of Sesame Street. I also eat a lot of sesame seeds as a condiment on my meals. Talk about subliminal messages! I also think this cartoon is hohum.

I agree! I considered this cartoon "modern" at the time I recorded it 22 years ago. It was not at all what I was used to from 10 to 15 years earlier. I'm wondering now why I kept it at the time!

I actually want to ask you something.Are there any muppet segments from the 80's that you like?Just curious.One of mine include "Danger's No Stranger" and "The Letter N".

I like a handful of muppet segments from the 80's. I like the Ernie & Bert skit when Ernie saw an Egyptian version of himself and he/it began to talk. I also like Ernie singing "I don't want to live on the moon" and "Monster in the mirror" (which I posted). Those were both made in the mid to late 80's.

Being someone who was raised on it in the late '80s and early '90s, I got a real grab bag of everything, since there was a ton of old stuff still floating around in them days, mixed in with new. I agree with you in the sense that I think its most imaginative days were the 70s, but I still like most of what they did until only fairly recently.

It's funny because in 1985 and 1986, when I recorded all my segments, I only collected the stuff from the 70's. I did see a lot of new segments then (which are now over 20 years old) that I wish I had saved because now, they have turned into classics. Time is funny that way. Maybe we will look fondly in 20 years over the crap that's on the show today? LOL

@bluquail Maybe he saw them in danger from up in the sky and so he flew down over the river just to help them.

I hope that pilot didn't mind (1:00).

@mstatz

As much sense as you are making, I have a hard time picturing myself ever looking fondly at "Elmo's World" or "Trach Gordon". I will probably be pushing up daisies long before that ever happens!

@bluquail

While we are on the topic of Harrison Ford, I would like to say that he was one of the stars of a movie that is tied with "Mamma Mia!" as being my second favorite movie ever. The movie that I am referring to is the "Frisco Kid". And by the way, my favorite movie of all-times is "Marci X". Lisa Kudrow forever!

I always wondered why they were swimming in what appears to be vaguely blue whipped cream.

When they both fell down from the waterfall, it looks like from 0:41-0:45, the woman's head was stuck on something under the water until the man pulled her by the ankle to get her head up.

(Both of them must either be husband and wife, brother and sister, or father and daughter).

I used to loved this cartoon as a small child. But I can never understand what the point of the story is supposed to be but I thought it was intense.
