Speaking of laughs, look at what Doc wearing. Guy Smiley: This is last night’s audience! We locked them in the studio!Ĭookie Monster: Me do jokes, you do the laughs. Cookie Monster appears in front of a multicolored curtain, spouting “Heyoooo! Heyoooo!”.Ĭookie Monster: Look at that audience! This almost as good as last night’s audience, eh Guy?

Special guests on the show will include “singer Buddy Larynx, author Norman Mailtooth, and movie star Robert Redface”. Guy Smiley announces the show as his Ed MacMahon sidekick. Add this to the (very short) list of risque jokes with Sesame Street characters!!Ĭookie Monster stars in the next segment as host of “The Nighty-Night Show”, a spoof of The Tonight Show. Herry and Grover, watching off stage, say that the commercial was hilarious, and they’d like to see it again.
Burnett quickly drops her lunch, covers her chest, and says “no”. Herry doesn’t get any lines in this number, just an opportunity to react to the lovely Joe Raposo song and a small kiss on the nose at the end.Ĭarol Burnett returns, as a stagehand announces that they’ll be filming a bra commercial. Of course, being sung by a beautiful woman like Eden, the song takes on a completely different meaning. NARC!Īnd we’re back to the Muppets! Barbara Eden sings “Go Ahead and Touch”, another classic Sesame Street number, which originally played over a video of kids at a petting zoo. It didn’t help that Gould looks far too old to be in high school. This leads into another Electric Company sketch, featuring Elliott Gould as a 1950s high schooler performing a dance number with Rita Moreno. The quiet tone of the poem really shines through, and it’s a lovely moment in an otherwise chaotic special. I’m genuinely surprised that they attempted this, especially with such an innately silly character. It’s a surprisingly earnest and serious moment from Grover, who delivers the poem without any humor or irony. Once the poem is finished, they ride off. Grover recites the Robert Frost poem, “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening”. They’re in a wooded area covered in snow, as it flurries down over them. Grover rides in, towed in a wagon by a Muppet horse. Next is one of the most fascinating portions of the special. This is why the Powers That Be invented the fast forward button. Morgan Freeman hosts a game show, “Give It Back”, where if contestants answer questions incorrectly, they must lose their belongings or pets or family members. They agree to be partners, and to go to the Royal Donut casino to clean them out. Gould, now ruined, begins to cry, which makes Cookie Monster cry in return. Of course, Cookie Monster misunderstands and eats everything on the table. When Cookie Monster begins to cry and panic, Gould takes pity and offers him one cookie.

Gould lays down his full house, and Cookie Monster believes his royal flush is a losing hand, so he forfeits. Cookie Monster calls, and the poker table is now completely full of cookies. The bets continue to raise with pecan nutties, butternut fudgies, vanilla crisps, and one ladyfinger (which he slyly removes from his wallet). (In true Muppet fashion, Cookie is dressed like a Chippendales dancer – just collar and cuffs.) Gould bets two chocolate chip cookies, and Cookie Monster raises him five oatmeal cookies. He accuses Cookie Monster of hiding an ace up his sleeve, until Cookie points out that he doesn’t even have sleeves. Gould finds himself playing against Cookie Monster. Out to Lunch continues with “Tomorrow Night at the Movies”, which is showing a clip from the film, “The Kookamunga Kid” featuring Elliott Gould as a card shark. I don’t know why I even started this paragraph that way.īe sure you read part 1 before continuing! Or don’t, because continuity be damned! There’s no story or throughline in this thing. When last we saw our heroes… it doesn’t really matter. Welcome back, Sesame fans! We are halfway through our lunch break, and we’ve got another half hour’s worth of content to cover on the back end of the Sesame Street/Electric Company crossover, Out to Lunch!
