From Episode 115: Oscar is depressed because he can't find anything new to complain about; after rejecting a suggestion from Gordon, he decides to try the Dial-a-Grouch hotline. The voice on the other end, though, surprises both Oscar and Gordon...

NOTES:

1. Gordon's mentioning Roosevelt Franklin at the end of this sketch is a segue to the counting song that MarshalGrover already posted here.

2. Sesame Workshop has digital copies of the complete episode (and several others) available through iTunes--

  • Wow, not only do we have an orange Oscar, we have a Gordon with HAIR!

  • @erracht: That's Season 1 for you; believe it or not, Jim Henson originally wanted Oscar to be purple and live in a manhole! (I read that in _Street Gang_. a book about the development of "Sesame Street" and the people involved.)

  • @MsTexas73: The vacation was actually at Swamp Mushy Muddy, according to Muppet Wiki.

  • @IJustWatchEm71 Yep, he was Orange...and according to Oscar, turned Green due to a vacation at a toxic waste dump.
