Trivia:
Big Bird almost never got Mr. Hooper's last name correct during his entire stay on the show. He often called him Mr. Looper, among other words that rhymed. Often, he would use the words "pooper" and "scooper," but never together. moreSoundtrack:

Sesame Street was my favorite show when I was a kid. I remember a scene from the episode where Mr. Hooper died. Gordon told Big Bird that he died. Big Bird thought he would come back, but Gordon told Big Bird that he wouldn't. This episode dealt with death in a way young children would understand, which makes it a classic.
I'll admit it. Sometimes when I'm flipping through the channels, I'll stop and watch SS for awhile. It brings back so many childhood memories.
