Back here, I recommended Street Gang, a new documentary on Sesame Street that is now playing on HBO Max. In it, they play a long clip of "Put Down the Duckie," one of the more memorable songs to appear on that series. Here's a longer version of it complete with some great guest cameos. I especially laughed at Andrea Martin as Edith Prickley and at newsguy Robert MacNeil.
The furry (for some reason) owl is named Hoots and he was performed by Kevin Clash, the Muppeteer who gave Elmo his distinctive voice and personality.
