when sesame street first came out, and they started to find new talent to bring to the show i think around 1970 a man that looked indian named Prasanna Rao he was the first to make these hand shadow like hand puppet skits during the sesame street season. does any body here on this site remember seeing these, and recall these shadow hand puppet skits. alot of people said that this guy made some afraid or some what freaked out, but others liked it, other then that does any body have any idea if thier are any more that are made from sesame street since that time, and if any more were made, other then the Rabbit, the Cow, the Elephant, the Parrot. the Man, and the Swan and the Horse to name a few, i think thier are more, but its hard to recall that, other wise thanks and happy valentines day.:smile:

I know what you're talking about- I remember those shadow puppets too. I don't recall being scared by them- they were pretty cool. Sesame Street's video player may have some- you might try on www.sesamestreet.com or maybe on Youtube...
