> Cool, I’m glad you included that link, **Terrifel** , because I could’ve sworn it was a _Sesame Street_ bit rather than _Muppet Show_. Mainly because the latter wasn’t something I watched very often – I was about ten when it premiered – but I definitely recall loving this skit as a kid.

They did it on [Sesame Street](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYJuKX2j-Cw), as well. Also on [Ed Sullivan](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRRFfg2Guq4). The routine as a Muppets act is quite a bit older than _The Muppet Show_.

Edited: Just realized that you’re actually talking about the version **Terrifel** posted. :smack:
