None of them work. You can't directly link to images hosted on tripod.

As for Miles & Gabi:
Miles:first was played by Roscoe Orman's actual son Miles
then by someone named Imani Patterson
one more boy is playing him now(not sure who though)
Gabi was first played by Maria's(Sonia Manzano) actual daughter named Gabriella
Now she's played by Desiree Cansado

Someone feel free to correct me
Miles Robinson is currently played by Olamide Faison. Hope that helps.

Who, by the way, is the brother of Donald Faison, who plays Turk on "Scrubs" and who also was in the movie "Clueless."

Even before Sesame Street premiered, they had a different Gordon. When they produced a week of shows to test-market in July 1969, Robert Guillame (of Soap and Benson fame) was Gordon, but he didn't make the final cut. Enter Matt Robinson, who was originally hired as a writer and assistant producer. He had enough charisma to become our first Gordon.
A glimpse of Guillame can be seen in the 2001 A&E special that shows him, Susan, and Mr. Hooper dancing on the set

Oh my goodness! I just can't picture Robert Guillame as Gordon! I had no idea about that.

Is that show from A&E available on dvd or video?
