Boy, I tell you… the e-mails one gets for closing a thread that dallies with the posters’ Sesame Street memories. 😛 Okay, I’ll go ahead and re-open this thread; however, I originally closed it because I saw–and still do, really–it as being more pointless than most of our threads. (It wasn’t closed because anyone thought it was a foreign language. I mean, we’re a fair-minded board, so I hope the Martians will feel welcome enough to post should they Google their way here.) If the thread becomes a post-padding thread, it’ll be closed down. Until and if that happens, though, have a blast. ---

Was that the skits with the Two Headed Monster on the moon **Inigo**? Am I remembering right? Has anyone seen The Two Headed monster’s skit with Cab Calloway? 😃 I always thought they should have given that character more attention and more skits. ---

Has anyone seen The Two Headed monster’s skit with Cab Calloway? 😃 I always thought they should have given that character more attention and more skits. Yes, yes, yes, and no. The thing was a half-baked idea with a beach towel wrapped around it. The monster(s) were not on the moon as I recall. They were Martians.

Thanks **Skipples**! I take back all those evil thouhts I was thinking when I stalked off to lunch! Martians. or something like that. The were ship-less as I recall, just sort of alien travellers" looking for someone or something to chat with. The only two-headed thing I can think of was a quasi-English-speaking thing. Purple, each head had horns, one set pointed up, one set pointed down. 2nd or 3rd generation Street I think though. The Yippers were original equipment I believe. ---
