    Thanks for posting up the original version!

  2. All right. I was hoping this would get uploaded. It sure is interesting to hear Mike Davis as Forgetful, though I like Richard Hunt’s voice better. Thanks, Nanto.

    I understand Davis also voiced Snuffy for a time. Anyone have any clips of that?

    Yes, there are 2 clips on here that a user named CatthathasNoName has posted. They are from a 1981 episode where Mister Rogers visits Sesame Street. Ironically it’s from episode 1575 which would be the very last time Michael performed Snuffy. He only performed him from 1979-1981 then Marty took over. Anyways look for it on here. Just type in Mister Rogers Sesame Street Catthathasnoname and both parts should pop right up. You’ll notice how Michael does a pretty good match to Jerry’s Snuffy. Enjoy

  4. There was also an original version of the sketch where Forgetful needs something to ride around the ranch, with Michael Earl Davis as Forgetful, Brian Muehl as Clem, and Kevin Clash as Buster.

    Well, that’s ok with me that it has a logo on it. Mainly because it reminds me of 2006, when all the other great Sesame Street clips were on this website.

    If this is from 1981, than that can’t be Kevin Clash playing Buster because he didn’t join the show until 1984.

  7. Apparently he was committed to other things at the time, but he did make occasional appearances on the show at this time. And yes that is indeed Kevin performing Buster.

    It is so weird to hear someone beades Richard Hunt do Forgetful’s voice. Why did they change it?

  9. They didn’t. This was Forgetful Jones’ first clip ever. Michael Earl Davis was the original voice.

    What I meant was why did they change it from the original voice.

    Because puppeteer Michael Earl Davis left Sesame Street after working there for three seasons.

  12. You’re right. I didn’t realize it at first. I did think it was Nelson.

  13. I’m looking for another Forgetful Jones clip, one in which he’s imagining Gordon, Maria, and Luis singing him a song called “Write it Down” Broadway style. Does anyone have it?

  14. I think I like Richard Hunt as Forgetful better.

  15. I totally forgot about this one. This one is from the early eighties right?

  16. Clementine is Forgetful’s girlfriend, right?

  17. Yes, at least on those occasions when he can remember that she is his girlfriend. ;-)

  18. Buster sounds like a Bee Gee.

  19. This was Forgetful’s debut, right?

  20. In that case, this is probably Kevin’s first Muppet appearance.

  21. Yup.
