Showing Tavernertoddler "Sesame Street Old School" - all shows from 69-74

[Taverner]

Wow...this show definitely used to be better - its not just how I remembered it...

And Oscar being orange once wasn't just a past memory remembered incorrectly...



Or Big Bird the pinhead...

I love Oscar as an orange grouch!

2. Ahhhh... those were the years!

I started first grade in 1969, and our teacher was thrilled to have Sesame Street on the air! In fact, all of my teachers through third grade were Sesame Street fanatics. I still remember everything about it! I watched it after third grade too, but not as often. But I have fond memories... :D

5. Oooh! I loved it when Oscar lost his trash-can lid!

I used to come home after Junior High School to watch!

6. I remember Mr. Hooper and his store.

That was before he died. :(

Big Bird was always having trouble with his name.

"Hi, Mr. Looper!"

(wearily) "Hooper!"

7. I love this one that they don't show anymore

that has a rockin' tune.

"let's go driving in an automobile, let's take a drive in a car...." It's really hippiesh...

9. My European friend

spent a few years of his childhood in the 70s in the US. He learned English from Sesame Street!

11. I want to get that.

I think the show was better back then, though it's still some of the best children's television there is. I love it when we watch the new ones, and they'll occasionally show a clip from the older shows. Brings back memories. They showed the classic Alligator King animated segment the other day. Loved it.
