Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Big Bird welcomes the viewer in the wee hours of the morning. He likes to listen to the sounds of people waking up, such as Gordon's alarm clock and baby Gabi crying. Suddenly, some farm animals begin to flock into his nest area, followed by Old MacDonald (Richard Hunt). He tells Big Bird that he wanted a change of scenery from the farm and has brought all his animals to live in the city. He feels like having breakfast, so Big Bird leads him to Hooper's Store.
 	Animation 	Blue, red and yellow ovals play "Old MacDonald."
 	Muppets 	Cookie Monster comes to the bakery looking for something delicious that rhymes with BUY. He tries the I (from the MIKE'S BAKERY sign) and the baker's TIE, both of which aren't that delicious. Finally, Guy Smiley comes in and loudly announces that he would like to BUY a PIE. Cookie then knows what he can get in the bakery that rhymes with BUY and is delicious: it's GUY! A chase ensues, and Cookie asks the baker to send him the bill.
 	Film 	Storks fly around and dance in their nest as flamenco music plays.
 	Muppets 	The Count has prepared himself a picnic not far from his castle. As he counts the ants who come to take away his food, he eventually has nothing left. Which is just as well, since it has started to rain.
 	Cartoon 	Luis counts three blackbirds, which lay three eggs.
 	SCENE 2 	Gina is introduced to Old MacDonald, who consults the newspaper to find any available apartments for him and his animals. The first listing he reads is for a studio that welcomes pets. He believes this is perfect and rounds up the animals to scope it out. Gina is skeptical, while Big Bird sings, "Old MacDonald had a studio apartment..."
 	Cartoon 	L for Lion (sand)
 	Film 	Kids go roller-skating in a playground as ragtime music plays.
 	Muppets 	Astronaut Prairie Dawn floats on a space shuttle, when Elmo pops up out of nowhere, offering to help her. He soon learns that there is no need for a policeman, a construction worker, or a farmer in space (unless there's a cow).
 	Cartoon 	The Typewriter: D - Daisy
 	Muppets 	While Ernie is away visiting the Count, Bert has the place all to himself, or so he thinks! A group of sheep burst into the room and proceed to sing him a song ("Bert's Blanket") about how his blanket was made (with a flashback scene where Ernie is portrayed as a farmer). He then corrects them on the actual production phase.
 	Cartoon 	A bear (Jim Thurman) stacks 10 cans.
 	SCENE 3 	Bob now meets Old MacDonald as they return from the apartment. The landlord wouldn't rent to them, as "pets" pertains more to dogs and cats. But he has a plan - he's placed "DOG" signs on all the animals and has them try to bark. Gina points out how the plan won't work, and Old MacDonald must think of something else. Bob has to head off to a music lesson and Old MacDonald invites himself and his crew (music helps him think better).

Finally, when a rain cloud is about to rain on him, he shifts the cloud over to the left of the screen so it rains on Gordon instead.
 	Cartoon 	Joe's Lap (limerick)
 	SCENE 5 	In the yard, Bob, Big Bird, Gina, Telly, and the kids perform "Old MacDonald" as he and the animals sing. The song has made him homesick, and he decides to return to the farm.
