Star of the Golden Horseshoe Revue at Disneyland from 1955 to the early
eighties -- a world record for the longest running show.  When he left
they completely changed the show (now the G. H. Jamboree).  Some of the
jokes and skits he did on the Muppet Show were lifted directly from his
GHR act.  Incidently, also the voice of Jose the Parrot in the Tiki Room.

A friend of mine was a bit eccentric. She was a very happy and positive
person who liked everyone, but that was not what made her eccentric. She
loved Grover. She had a stuffed doll Grover that she took with her when
travelling <she did a lot of it>. She often said that she wanted to tape
all of Sesame Street and edit out everything but Grover.
 
Two years ago, she was murdered in Atlanta. They buried her stuffed Grover
with her. A lot of her friends <and she had many> went and bought Grover
dolls in her memory. I can't even see Grover without thinking of her. She
was a lot like him, only not as annoying...
 
But God Bless the Grover in all of us...!

The version I remember:

We all live in a Capital I
In the middle of the desert, in the center of the sky
And all day long we polish up the I,
Rubbing it here, scrubbing it there...

And that's where my batteries give out!  I do remember the "Capital I,
Capital I" line; they repeat that as the cartoon fades out, right?

I HATE this trend toward ultra-wimpy baby characters.  Baby flinstones,
muppet babies, etc.  When I saw the "babyized" (wimpified) version of
Hamburglar a few years ago, I lost all hope.  Hamburglar used to be this
evil looking creature with a pointy nose who mumbled "rubble-rubble" in
a sinister voice.  Now he looks like a muppet baby and talks like a baby.
Why this marketing shift of of so many kid's cartoons and commercials down
to the preschool level?  Are they most easily manipulated at this age?
Is the audience of 7-10 year old kids shrinking?

They would never make a character like Oscar the Grouch these days.
He'd be "too scary" or "too evil" or something.

I saw it & also loved it. It's one of the funniest stories they've
ever done (at least in my opinion). My favorite scene, Earl singing
(I think the song was "I love being a girl", but I'm not sure). In
this election year his portrayal of a politician was no more
ridiculous than some of the choices were being offered. It's too
bad ABC moved the show to Friday nights (thank God for VCR's or I'd
really be hosed).

I agree.  Super Grover is definitely one of the top characters, although my
absolute all-time favorites have to be Cookie Monster (for Sesame Street),
Animal (for The Muppet Show), and the White Lion (for Special Shows).  I
currently have a Super Grover and an Animal at work with me.  I have looked
for other characters to increase my collection, but all the ones I have seen
have been wearing costumes.  None of them appear in their *traditional* garb.
To clarify, I am speaking of 3 to 4 inch hard rubber or metal figurines.  
Does anyone know where I might find others?  Just wondering.

I happen to think that Baby Sinclair IS a cool Muppet, however, there is now a
place specifically for discussion of Dinosaurs (as mentioned in earlier posts)
and, as such, I felt justified in omitting them from this discussion.

You want the words to the Rainbow Connection? That's easy....

Why are there so many songs about rainbows
And what's on the other side?...
(MORE TO COME...)

What I really want to know is - What are the rest of the lyrics to the
"Capital I" song from Sesame Street? It's been bugging me for months!

You know the one...come on and sing along:

We all live in a capital I
In the middle of the desert underneath the great big sky
And all day long we polish our I...
(This is where I blank out -)
Capital I, Capital I
Capital I, Capital I

Any diehards out there who can help me? 

BTW, my favorites are Elmo, Link Hogthrob, and the Twiddlebugs. I also have a
special place in my heart for those great African masks that were made for
Harry Belafonte's "Turn the World Around" number.
