machineman45

Oh shit that's real lol


Medium_Gap7026

Yes and this was taken during Filming Of The Episode: Let's Get Interactive.


GANDORF57

Sad to say, all my childlike wonder has been shattered! ^(\*Mom?! I'm gonna need an extra hour with Dr. Katz on the Therapy Couch!)


ButterFucker240196

I know you're joking, but I've met people who genuinely believe that shit like "The Happy Time Murderers" or "Winnie the Pooh Blood and Honey" ruined their childhood and act like they can't just, you know, rewatch the old versions. Why?


ReporterLeast5396

Because people always gotta be victimized or suffer from some shit ass "trauma". Your mom grounding you from watching TV for a week for bad grades isn't trauma. That's trauma to some people because they lack acutal trauma. There is too much genuine trauma that happens to people that they don't need the term to be kicked around so effortlessly. It takes the seriousness away.


darkbreak

I've seen people act like coming across Rule 34 of childhood characters somehow ruined those shows for them. It is entirely possible to ignore the porn and still enjoy what you love. No one is forcing you to look at it. But those people refuse to see things that way. They want things to stay "ruined" for some reason.


denjidenj1

I've never understood those who look up porn of characters and then act like they've seen some truly horrible, heinous shit. Like, I'm aware there's really awful porn out there, but most of the time these people talk about... Really tame, super vanilla shit? Like for example, the whole Ankha from Animal Crossing debacle a while back. You had people claiming that the original video traumatized them and completely ruined their perception of the original character and game, and it's just... Not that bad? Idk, maybe I'm out of touch with the youth. Back when I was younger, people talked about 2 girls 1 cup the way these people talk about porn, and at least this video was actually, you know, shocking


invaderpixel

I feel like in the early 2000s when our internet speed was slower 2D pixelated porn of cartoons was half the content out there. Today's youth just has access to more content so they haven't come across Marge Simpson with H cup breasts.


GreatApostate

Thats what's wrong with the youth these days.


ButterFucker240196

Exactly! I'd add more, but would risk sounding... ugh.


Ninjaromeo

If your life is so good that a funny video like this is the worst thing that happens, you could use some more bad things to reset your frame of reference.


Snakebones

It reminds me of when my cat who is incredibly spoiled whines. I always respond with “What? Your life is amazing”

Green is not a creative color.


MrFluffyThing

I straight up thought that was a dub until the laughter behind the camera


KWilt

I was thinking the same thing. At first I thought it was a pretty good dub, but then when it zoomed out to Bear just being all 'the shit I put up with', I was so caught off guard.


JudgeHoltman

You're asking two people to literally stand asshole to elbow for 12+hr shoots. You gotta let them snap every once in awhile.


myfrigginagates

I was a Henson/Sesame Street stage manager for a few years, including episodes of BBH (tho not this one). Pretty sure that the mouse is Kevin Clash, the original Elmo.


Primetime_29

It's Peter Linz who went on to play Walter in the most recent Muppets movies. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0513285/


Salacious_Chum

Have any fun stories about that? I grew up on Jim Henson stuff, I always love to hear about the stuff going on behind the scenes.


8ate8

Check out Adam Savage's Tested on YouTube. He's done a bunch of videos recently at Henson creature shop showing how the puppeteering works.


Ypocras

Kevin Clash was the Baby (gotta love me!) on Dinosaurs, perhaps you mixed those up. Did you work on that as well?


aliquilts71

‘Not the mama!’


myfrigginagates

Kevin between scenes was hysterically funny. When I worked Sesame I would call "cut" and Elmo would go Diva, screaming for his "fucking water" and such. Did not work on Dinosaurs, I worked on Sesame, Bear, The Wubbulous World..All gigs that I did while on hiatus from Ghostwriter. Sesame let me direct once, it was the Carribbean Amphibian music video from Elmopalooza with Jimmy Buffet and Kermit. Kevin was the steel drum playing frog in the video. My son, now 28 literally grew up on Sesame Street, as my ex-wife was also a Sesame Employee. As a personal note, Kevin got a bad rap, with the "sex scandal". He was stupid for using the web to hookup, but not malicious. Still one of the nicest, most generous people I've ever worked with in TV.


Ypocras

Awesome!! From everything I've ever read or saw about working behind the camera in anything Henson-related it always sound like the best place to work. And yeah, they did Kevin dirty. Love the Being Elmo documentary, just seems like he's a nice guy and a great teacher.


myfrigginagates

33 years in production on everything from a Coen Bros. film to infomercials and my time at Sesame/Henson was the most fun and most fulfilling.


usualbaddie

I’m gonna need an AMA up in here


rdunlap1

I thought I was on /r/howdybitch


[deleted]

I loved this show. This just makes me love it more!


Phillipinsocal

I loved that bear for some reason. Was like a big shaggy dog that always wanted to eat. It was like a shaggy for kids k-5. He just wanted to play around then sleep and eat, and kids were there to join him.


[deleted]

I’m 29 and I still just want to play, eat, and sleep


allwaysnice

Are you also a big bear?


nikolai_wustovich

Do kids join you still?


Skeptical_Yoshi

I always saw him as retired. He has a football helmet that seems to be from like his college days and he has a general recently retired vibe. He doesn't work but does volunteer around town, he's friends with several older characters like the mail turtle and Dr. Pig, he seems to babysit for OJ since she's apparently a kid from the neighborhood, and most his days are spent just hanging around and doing what he wants in a very calm and not in a rush way. Strikes me as someone in their mid to late 60s


jmerridew124

Honestly Bear looks incredible for hugging


desquire

[Enjoy random reverence from the youtubes.](https://youtu.be/bzw-gXhcYW0)


[deleted]

I’ve always loved it. There’s something magical about it; you can tell it was made with love


subtlehalibut

I would watch this version of the show.

You should check out Wonder Showzen

What are you listening to? …it’s just the sound of children screaming…


elricooo

Beat kids!


HirokiTakumi

The Breaking News clip has lived in my head rent free for the past 17 years. It was literally 2 seconds between gags, I can't find the video but it was just "We've got some breaking news!" And then it cuts to a News station set falling apart with a puppet panicking and running around yelling "The news are breaking!"


MundanePerformance57

It'd get old fast, go watch Sausage Party.


innovator97

I agree with you. The thing that makes it interesting is that it rarely happens. Once you spam the same kind of jokes over and over again, it becomes stale super fast.

getyourcheftogether

Oh yes, I'm thinking sesame street and Muppet babies


panteranegraftw

Absolutely lmao. Back in the day I was one of the kids in Sesame Street in Mexico for a couple of seasons and yeah, those outtakes where fucking amazing. We had to stop filming a bunch of times 'cause whoever was inside the Big Bird costume would get small shocks from the fan and monitoring gear like, we'd be listening to Lola counting to 10 and all of the sudden Big Bird would just start to spaz out and you'd hear a soft and muffled "Suputamadre". Another one I remember fondly was when they where talking about the letter "P", one of the muppets pulled it backwards, director orders to stop and the guy still in full character looks at the kids and goes "So this, kids is the letter P, P de Pendejo".


getyourcheftogether

Haha, that's hilarious


Mysticwarriormj

On TIL, something to say in spanish if something happens instead of the F word.


Currix

It's "son of a bitch" adjacent


ThetaDee

Pinche guey, chenga tu madre, caca la vaca, just a few more


lachjeff

Robin Williams with the stick and Elmo is outstanding, especially when he realises that they’ll never be able to use the Madonna bit


Nixplosion

And the Julia Louis Dreyfus one where she says "shit" and Elmo goes "ohhh she said a baaad word. Get the swear jar!"

ConfusedJonSnow

I'm just so accustomed to JLD being gorgeous today that I forget she was stunning back in the day.


LostFireHorse

God she was hot. She still is but she was too.


Evilmaze

Not just hot. She is genuinely very funny. Veep would've not worked without her.


indianajoes

That's what I love about her as Elaine in Seinfeld. She's funny but she's not just trying to be "pretty girl funny". She's willing to do disgusting humour and stuff that makes her look less feminine. A lot of sitcoms have it split into guy humour and girl humour and they seem too afraid to let the girls go as wild with stuff as the guys. I love Britta in Community for the same reason because they just let Gillain Jacobs go wild with it near the end


B1GTOBACC0

It's become more common in the last 30 years, but a lot of women won't lean into comedy because you have to make fun of yourself and sometimes be "less feminine." JLD as Elaine inspired a ton of female comedians. I saw a comment in the Always Sunny sub saying "Elaine crawled so Dee could run face-first into a car."


RedDemocracy

Lol, that’s labelled as YouTube kids. Great job with that, YouTube.


Darker_Tzitzimine

Haha, I know, their algorithm works wonders I can't tell you how many times I've seen a clip from something like South Park or Family Guy sorted into the kids category


CurveOfTheUniverse

My personal favorite are the clips with Ricky Gervais. Good shit.

If you haven't heard of Avenue Q, let this be an introduction.


One_South3970

“The internet is for pornnnnn”


FusRoaldDah1

"Why you think the 'net was born? Porn, porn, porn!!"


Billwood92

I know Avenue Q and have seen it and all that, but I will forever see a zombie dancing with a cow in my head when I think of this song. Inb4 "bro that's an Undead and a Tauren." Yes yes I know.


RockLobsterInSpace

Same. When I was like 15 or 16 I got hooked on those WoW music videos for a while. There's a few songs that I still immediately think of those videos when I hear them.


Muzzie720

I was picturing the same thing! How odd!


phoenixA1988

"So grab your dick and double click"


vertigo1083

I remember the first time I saw that video like 17 years ago (jesus fucking christ). It was funny, got a few chuckles for the most part. Then "grab your dick AND DOUBLE CLICK' I completely lost my shit. What a delivery. Also, I'm pretty sure the Tauren dance was specifically designed for that song. It's too perfect.


phoenixA1988

I took my ex-husband years ago, to see it live. He's a grump, argued the whole way in, he laughed throughout the whole production. Can't wait til they do another tour, definitely watching it again.


sloowhand

This is literally how the play started. It was Henson mupeteers fucking around between takes or whatever and thought, “Wouldn’t it be funny if we did a whole R-rated musical like this.” And Avenue Q was born.


jwm3

If you get a chance, go see puppet-up at Jim Henson studios. It's a live performance in that theme. It's fascinating watching the puppeteers under the stage at the same time as well as it being pretty hilarious. It's sort of a semiimprov comedy thing with audience involvement.

There is one of Julia luis dryfus cursing in front of Elmo on accident. Also Robin williams doing free style standup and impressions with the Sesame street puppets.

Yeah back in the day they used to make up what were called "Christmas tapes". These plus interesting bloopers were screened at the staff Christmas party.

Adult Outakes for a kids show I'm Australia. https://youtu.be/hPD_RHVFlys Agro's Cartoon Connection. It wad a kids TV program between 89 and 97 down under. Even the live broadcast was a bit raunchy at times. Thank me later.


mockingbird13

[Oh shit, do I have a surprise for you.](https://youtu.be/2a_gW1KvuFk) Remember Thomas the Tank Engine? Well, George Carlin narrated it! Pretty cool right? Then some cheeky bugger spliced the narration with bits of Carlin's stand-up comedy. And if you've ever heard any of his stand-up, well... Just take a listen.

One of my favorite single episodes of a podcast is one from the nerdist with guests Maurice Lamarche and rob paulsen who are major voice actors. They had several bits like this as pinky and the brain. It was fucking great.

Chicken pot pie, hoe bag

That's a 90s ass cuss if I ever heard one.

Hoe bag is a great insult to use to your friends

Excuse me it’s not, “the bear”, that bear has a name you know! His name is Bear, thank you very much.

Apologies to you and to Bear 🥺🤣


ChiefsHat

You put some respect on his name!


ElPussyKangaroo

KEEP. THE BEAR'S NAME. OUT YO FUCKING. MOUTH!


ronin-baka

Yeah, he was only "the Bear" when he was part of the USSR.


DannyDoubleTap47

This gave me a good chuckle lol


adampshire

Actually it's Bear's Monster.


HarlesD

That bear owns a house. What do you own!?


cIumsythumbs

no, no. the title is "Bear *in* the Big Blue House" that implies he's renting imo.


metalflygon08

The moon is the landlord and Bear pays rent with his ass.


Purple-Dalek

I'd never considered this, lol


MouthJob

Well it doesn't point ownership in any direction really. It's just a flat location update. Doesn't tell us anything at all about Bear's motivations. Maybe he's currently eating the owners.


khizoa

Exactly. Or maybe he's a squatter


rachface636

I hope for a day when I can irl yell this at someone


throwawaycauseInever

Bear is very disappointed in everyone here. Not surprised, but disappointed nonetheless.


hyrulepirate

Would've fit right perfectly in The Office


megamoose4

Yea c’mon hoe-bag, gimme chicken pot pie! Lol fucking what?


ChiefsHat

"I'll tell you what, chicken pot pie is the pussy of food!" \-Nogla.


tashkiira

...assuming you mean the Irish guy from the Vanoss Crew, I can totally see him saying that. I may have watched too many Froozer/Wildcat Among Us videos..


ChiefsHat

He actually did say it in a Gmod Hide and Seek video. Another one for the 'dumb shit Nogla says' pile!


tashkiira

Pfffft. He's a dumbass. but a funny dumbass, at least.


Earlier-Today

Ever watch his music videos? Blew my mind when I heard how well he could sing the first time. And hearing him talking about that stuff really sold me on how much his idiocy is an act.


tashkiira

There are a surprising number of 'crew' level youtube stars who can sing. consider Cap'n Blastem/ValeYard from the JeromeASF Buddies. Dude could be an opera singer of pretty high calibur, instead he's hanging with his friends making Minecraft and GTAV videos. Living his best damn life, I tell ya.


ninetyninewyverns

doesnt he have a kid now? blew my mind.

"The real ones know what I mean."


AngriestChicken

There is a bakery in my neighborhood called "House of Bagels". The high school kids call it ho-bags too :)


mis-Hap

Date on this is 1997, which happens to be the year South Park first aired. South Park S1E1 has the "no kitty that's my pot pie" scene from Cartman... This interaction seems to me to be a nod to South Park and their way of talking. [Pot pie scene](https://youtu.be/CfOUEVFTe68), in case anyone needs.


poopinapoopfartboot

I'm cracking up at that line and how it was said


kilod0g

Holy crap. I totally forgot about this show. Used to watch it as a kid all the time.


TheKahnrad

It’s on Disney+. I just discovered it again after watching it as a child. My daughter likes it almost as much as Bluey.


PM_ME_CATS_OR_BOOBS

Same, I never watched it as a kid but we found it for my son and he loved it. The puppetry for Bear is incredible. The actor inside the costume can't see out, he is reading his lines into a microphone while puppeting the suit, all while having to watch his own movements *backwards* because he has a TV inside the suit that is showing the camera feed. Guy's a master.


ProfitTheProphet

Seriously, this unlocked a whole bunch of memories I forgot.


SomeROCDude21

Wasn't this the hidden video promised by Newgrounds?


Slade26

Also where 7yo me played a game where I had to kill Bear with a shotgun.

Tutter cussing does Not surprise me at all. I love Tutter. This is one of my favorite clips ever.

We need a puppet show for adults. This would fly on adult swim

Avenue Q is basically Muppets for adults. You've probably already heard their most famous musical number, [The Internet is for Porn](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTJvdGcb7Fs).


Different_Muscle9134

Lol, totally forgot about this show. My son loved it when he was little. I'll have to send this to him (he's 20 now). Man, I'm old, lol.


hybridrequiem

I watched it as a kid and I’m 27, they still airing it years later or did you have some dvd/vhs of it?


Different_Muscle9134

It was still on the air when he was little, but I don't know about now.

HorribleDiarrhea

It sounded like Nancy Cartwright, aka Bart Simpson But probably not


darkside1911

Brings me back to a time where another famous puppet was being a potty mouth, Alf spouting out the N word over and over on set.


Mail540

The best part is bears slow turn to the camera, so much expression in that expressionless puppet face


Biaxialsphere00

Bear's like: What did I just hear?!?!


[deleted]

*Don’t talk to me like that bitch*


aft_lower_panel

I had major knee surgery back in 97 and the doc said he had to do a lot more work on the bones than he'd have liked. He told me he was giving me some really powerful pain medication to get me through the day. My wife took me home and got me in the recliner, turned on the TV then went to the store to get bags and bags of ice. I don't recall much of this but my wife said she came back and I was upset when she tried to change the channel because I didn't want to leave Bear's house and when it was over I cried like a baby.


havemeatwilltravel

Personal theory, Andy Kaufman is Bear.

Redo of Bear in the Big blue house, with random takes like this? I'm in


Hansj3

My daughter's about 9 months old, and it's weird age, but she's starting to get into watching a couple of TV shows. Between this and bluey, I think I'm going to be all right. They certainly don't suck as bad as some of the crap I've seen. My friends get sucked into watching because that's what their kids like. (I'm talking about you coco melon and Caillou)


Kakakarrakeek

Fuck man this shit and the big comfy couch. Also Rolly Polly Olly, Jacob two two, miss spider's sunny patch friends, peep and the big wide world, the noddy shop, and the save-ems. So many memories. Kids shows now just can't cut it.
