KID SHOWS, commishguy, I meant KID SHOWS. Particularly those made for LITTLE kids. Like when They had a beef with Cookie monster eating too much and smoking a pipe (despite the fact that it was a cookie) or when Oscar the Grouch was feared to be “too unsanitary”.
Of course there’s plenty of dirty adult shows, I never said there weren’t. Think of the context before you go attacking people, please.
@Christianchic907 TV ruined by PC nuts? Ever heard of Southpark? You really think TV is getting cleaner because of PC nuts? Really?
you may thank the liberal movement for that thinking.
its not really a kids show.
Yeah, that was back when good TV wasn’t ruined by the PC nuts
The muppet that drank whiskey and smoked died and turn into a ghost? Trippy for a kids show. You’d never see that these days on TV.
This is the saddest song ever
ahh the good old days of the muppets !! lol
and getting sent to bed b4 simpsons came on rofl!
I love this song, but i”ve never heard it this way before. Love it! thanks!
i think the muppet drank whiskey
This is one my favorite music all the time. I think my dad like this song also.
That’s exactly what I was thinking just now
I 1st heard this song I was running a bodyguard team and was seriously considering dumping a client that lied to us. We listened to this song, told the client we were terminating the contract and left. We ended up leaving 2 days before the clients house of cards fell and most evryone involved went to jail. Thanks Kenny.
I have no problem with keeping shows clean, I’m merely saying that there’s nothing “unclean” about puppets smoking toy pipes. Yes I will call the people who think that there’s something evil about Sesame Street “Nuts” if I want to. Why don’t you back off?
If you think that was an attack you are paranoid. Get over yourself. You’re attacking others for wanting to keep kids shows clean in the first place, calling them “nuts.”
I watched this on it’s original air date when I was a kid..it was magical….I think because the ghost scene was something you didn’t see every day…ahead of its time.
Dos canciones que hablan de la vida y de las cartas: Shape of My Heart y the Gambler.
Heh… in the PC world of today, no one will allow a video on gambling, drinking and smoking on this kind of family programming.
Sex, on the other hand, still sells =/
Its the magic of Jim Henson! Children programing hasn’t been the same since. And not in the positive way. His work was stunning!
Hi
I think the song is a metaphor for life: Never think too much while u still can live and have fun, time enough….
The puppetry and illusion is positively brilliant. Those muppets look like they are alive.
Old guy is kinda creepy lookin but its good.
well not realy sells u can get it for free
i dont like this but it still good
The song is often characterized as a metaphor for life in that you need to know when to stand your ground (when to hold ‘em) and when to retreat (when to fold ‘em). The gambler has learned that the trick to life isn’t the cards you’ve been dealt, but how to play them (every hand being a “winner” or a “loser” depending on how they are played). The “ace” that Rogers refers to in the end is this advice
