Wow, You're a Cartoonist!

Wow, You're a Cartoonist! is a title in the 1988 Play-Along Video series. Hosted by Muppet siblings Kai-Lee and P.J., the video aimed to teach kids how to draw their own cartoons.
It is perhaps most notable for featuring Caroll Spinney's puppet character Picklepuss in his only appearance in a Muppet production, along with Spinney character Pop.
Highlights include Picklepuss and Pop demonstrating how to draw faces, a Muppet named Artie explaining a drawing game called "What's That Line?", and Kermit drawing animals.
==Notes==
* One of the kids seen in the drawing sequences is Tatyana Ali, who would later star on the TV sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
* Michael Frith's son Jonathan Frith appears in a segment as a cartoonist.
* When Kermit is drawing in close-up shots, his hand is a "live hand" rather than the standard rod hand, thus allowing him to hold his pen. See Switching rod-hands and live-hands.
