Christmas Eve on Sesame Street, Part 5

this was where I first heard "Merry little christmas" I thought they wrote it for the show till I heard it on the radio one day... are you sure this is from 1978? there was another one before this that was pretty lousy. I think that was from '78. this is from the early 80s.

he has the mental capacity of a 3 or 4 year old. which is actually pretty good, considering that he's a bird. cut him some slack.

3:45 "Ohh boy". LOL !!!

@bostonscholar Yeah, I think he was just spending Christmas with Gordon and Susan.

That's the quality of the show, the puppeteer and the character right there, when you read emotions and expressions on a hand puppet. Loved this special!

did any of this special change over the years, I THINK i'm seeing things in this id not seen in previous years, such as Snuffy trying to get in the "Chimney" & the interviews

She's a child for god sakes. Well now she is probably 40 but then she was a child. Lay off her.

It's not about her being a child; that implies children can't act. There are more children in this special who show more expression in their faces, and I'm sure there were just as many child actors then as there are now. But for whatever reason that girl seems to lack basic emotions. I'm certain they could have found someone better. I'm sorry you feel bad for her, but I'm not going to retract my comment or feel bad about it. It's just my opinion.

I LOVE IT that Cookie Monster cannot fathom actually giving away cookies to Santa!!!

hey Leave Big Bird's nest alone
