Pau Hana Years

Pau Hana Years is a television series broadcast during the 1970s and 80s, produced by Hawaii Public Television and the Department of Education. It was originally conceived as a program "for and by the senior citizens of Hawaiʻi" but eventually branched out to cover all aspects of life in the Hawaiian islands.Pau Hana Years - Hana Hou retrospectiveuluulu.hawaii.edu
The 1,000th episode deviated from the show's usual format and took the form of a roast for the series host and producer Bob Barker. One segment takes a jab at Barker by referring to the show as a "turkey," introduced in a pre-taped spot by Big Bird, who ends his commentary by quoting Edith Ann and blowing a raspberry.
One speaker at the roast alleges that although most people find Barker to be a nice guy, he's actually a grouch. The following pre-taped segment shot on location features Oscar the Grouch commenting on his stay in Hawaii. He says he hates it because it's beautiful, but when asked about Barker's show, he says he loves it because he loves trash.
Big Bird and Oscar's involvement was facilitated by Jonathan Moser, who served as an assistant to Caroll Spinney during Sesame Street’s trip to Hawaii.archived Vimeo listing by Moser
