The funniest part of this bit was imagining people who had never seen the original sesame street sequence being utterly baffled by what they were watching.
Pinball Number Count was always my favorite segment on Sesame Street. When I saw this gag done on Family Guy, I went apes--- as it brought back memories from my youth.
@@northstarpokeshipper2148 Back in the days when we had this thing called a VCR and with it you could record TV movies or shows onto VHS tapes. So if he's got a VHS of it it's probably a homemade one.
I think the funniest hing is that Stewie is rolling along in the pinball the entire time.. I mean put yourself in there and you'll see. Imagine if they did the entire segment, or all 12 entire segments! lol
Classic. I am pretty convinced that Gen X would not be able to read without a lot of the cool stuff we had on TV. Electric Co. was the best. Sesame Street, Muppet Show, Saturday morning cartoons....Who can forget M*A*S*H*....We were lucky, those were some good times. Some of us spent a lot of time riding our bikes, playing outside in the woods, we would make up games. We had the Atari 2600. Phones were rotary, it took about 5 minutes to dial someone even local. No smartphones and we only had to worry about bullies in real life. No Internet, we had to use the card catalog and the encyclopedia. The state of the art computer was the TRS-80, then the Apple 2e. Magazines were a thing, there was a magazine for everything. Comics in the newspaper. Those days will never come back, even the 90s were cool compared to now.
I remember when I first saw this episode when I was 17 years old, I initially didn't get the reference, until months later when I started watching classic "Sesame Street" clips here on TH-cam and found one of the actual "Pinball Number Count" segments and it all came back to me from watching that show when I was little. I gotta say the "Family Guy" team did a pretty decent recreation!
its funny because i grew up with sesame street in the mid to late 90s and early 2000s, i think they recycled some of those in some episodes i rememebr seeing them
That's everyone says about the era they grew up in lol and I'm about the say the same but about the 90s. When TV had arguably the best cartoons on, when toys were still relevant and video games hadn't completely taken over, when internet was just starting to bloom and when kids would still go out and play with their friends.
I am totally unaware of a Sesame Street version, but I was not baffled, just amused, and I did note that there was a Sesame Street-like counting sequence, but not imagining that there really was a Sesame Street version.
I remember when I was -25 years old and watched this specific episode of Sesame Street, over and over. *This is a joke about how I didn't exist yet when that episode happened yet I still loved it when I was little.
When i was a impressionable young kid back in the day, I once had the crazy idea to want to build a pinball machine that was completely accurate to the one on Sesame Street; I was disappointed once reality set in.
This video you to fuck my shit up! As a pup, if my mom wanted me to sit still for 3 minutes all she had to do is put on PBS and let this video play and I would stop dead in my tracks in amazement
The Count did mention the number zero with the talking pipe oregon vanishing into smoke with the number zero slowly appearing in an episode of Sesame Street.
Ohhh! This is sooo ironic! When they were showing this on Sesame Street in '79, I was 11, & obsessed with The X-MEN, who I read religiously! At the time, they had been captured by the evil mastermind Arcade, who literally put them through what we just saw with Stewie! Every time they hit the bumpers, real electric shocks would go through them! Then they were put through serious death traps, not unlike unlike the cartoon! I've wondered for SO long if that story was inspired by these Sesame Street scenes - what do you think?
Intrigued by your theory, I sleuthed out that Pinball Number Count was produced in 1976 with a ‘77 air date, and while Arcade was first introduced in October, 1977, he didn’t put the X-Men inside a deathly pinball game until issue 123 in 1979, so I think you may have something there!
At the time on Sesame Street, they didn't use 1 as a number of the day because there's not much to count--there's just the one. Jazzy Spies also had no 1 segment. They did have a Song of One (baker) segment though.
I remember playing a family guy pinball machine as a little kid and trying so hard to get into the little stewie area in the top-right corner. I never did.
The funniest part of this bit was imagining people who had never seen the original sesame street sequence being utterly baffled by what they were watching.
Definitely me who didn't get the reference until later lol
“They didn’t get it but I did”
people really like feeling like this lmao
I got it immediately and laughed my ass off. But it made me wonder: how many other references are too NEW for me to understand.
@rightofcenter1977 trust me, family guy are too behind the times to make a joke that's "too new"
Sesame Street - Pinball Number Count / herman13s

They actually did a great job at recreating the old segment.
They used the original Pointer Sisters track though.
@@Bartonovich52 why wouldn’t they
@@Bartonovich52 I'm not sure I understand the problem, it seems logical they would use it...?
Family Guy is the biggest mixed bag of quality to ever exist.
they didnt recreate the whole thing lol, they just comped stewie into the original.

@@kingtrophyguide4362 Correct!
My ex almost cried when she saw it.
You went apeshit. Actually apeshit eh?
Me too! I also remember a whole bunch of other similar segments.
I used to own the VHS and watched this non stop as a kid so I recognized it instantly 😂
What VHS?

So many years... I've been searching this song for so many years. Thank you
@@hardcorerebel620, you welcome!
I never knew that was The Pointer Sisters.
@@MJK1965 Check out Jazzy Spies - that was Grace Slick.
This was uploaded 12 years ago today. I actually thought this day couldn’t get better.
It turned 12 in 1989, and was still playing!
The animators in this are brilliant
This is the Sesame Street I remember from when I was little in the 80's😄
This song was from "The Pointer Sisters".
@@kingtrophyguide4362 Yeah I know
The counting is stuck in my head to this day. “1, 2, 3, 4, 5. 6, 7, 8, 9, 10… 11, 12”
Popped into my head today and I can't get it out
I was born in the 90s but I still seen this a kid and am happy to have
My mother was born in the 70s and she said she saw this segment
I think the funniest hing is that Stewie is rolling along in the pinball the entire time.. I mean put yourself in there and you'll see. Imagine if they did the entire segment, or all 12 entire segments! lol
This was actually really accurate to the old original sequence, up to the point it went to. From there, it goes off the rails
Probably the best thing I've ever seen on Sesame Street
This and Funky Chimes are a couple of the best songs, period, from the 1970s… on a kids TV show.
Another reference to an old TV show that anyone over a certain age wouldn’t get.
THAT took me back.
That song still loops in my mind sometimes after all these years!
Sesame street!
Yep
Can you tell me how to get to Sesame Street
This is so fucking random, I love it so much 🤣
I'm 40, and this is me favorite segment from Sesame Street, and Bert and Ernie, the geometry circle, and Teeny Tiny Super Guy.
Dont forget the talking typewriter on wheels
The first time I saw this I was tripping balls literally and it blew my mind.

Originally, the Pinball Song was sung by THE POINTER SISTERS.
Stewie Griffin in The Pinball Song.
Oh come on.............. we all know what Stewie is thinking, deep down.
_"Again! AGAIN!"_ 😁
Again! Again! I love repetition!
Funny as hell-can't stop laughing-but now this song is stuck in my head.
I've had worse songs stuck in my head. This would be fine for a while.
One _2_ 3 *FOUR **_5_* Six _seven_ 8 *9* TEN _Eleven 12_ .. *Doo* Doo Doodoo _Do_ Doo.....
I loved that pinball cartoon back then.
Stewie should be fortunate that he didn't end up throwing up after all that spinning he had to endure.
I remember watching this original Sesame Street version before finding out this existed. Another memory unlocked.
Peter and Lois understood Stewie perfectly.
The 1970's in America was the best time to be alive.
If you didn't have to worry about communism back then
@@slickt8128 communism was a bigger threat in the 50's than in the 70's.

I got so giddy once I heard that shout lol
The description is wrong though. This was not the Electric Company, this was from Sesame Street.
Does anyone DARE try to animate Stewie in all the ACTUAL segments?
that should happen.
0:31 "12!"
It would’ve been funnier if Stewie was screaming (and/or cursing), the entire time.
Yeah, and even flipping around and throwing up 🤮 in his bubble, also, lol 😂.
I agree with your comment. Maybe Sesame Workshop wouldn't allow them to do that though.
Just like peter falling down the stairs
Aahhhhh BLAST
this is some of the best animation i’ve seen out of family guy
Stewie probably got shrunk into the pinball machine and put him in a little hamster ball
I am totally unaware of a Sesame Street version, but I was not baffled, just amused, and I did note that there was a Sesame Street-like counting sequence, but not imagining that there really was a Sesame Street version.
I hear he'll be the next guest character in Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania.
this has an odd time signature
Next he’ll be used as a football.
Stewie’s Pinball Land
I imagine Stewie would be dizzy after all that. He'd probably throw up.
This should be a theme park ride
Super Monkey Ball be like
So is no one gonna wish that this version was full like the original?
*T W E L V E !*
I remember the pinball segment and the song from Sesame Street. I watched it when I was younger.

Cuuuut~ The image is good, but the texture is Family Guy!
Strangely, they never made a 1. What's the point of them singing 1 -12 without a 1 course? The lowest pinball they use is 2.
At the time on Sesame Street, they didn't use 1 as a number of the day because there's not much to count--there's just the one. Jazzy Spies also had no 1 segment.

I swear if you have to go through that every morning, your going to hate your life forever
Classic!
Love it. Haha.
Most people: the numbers on a clock.
Alabama people: the number of fingers and toes.
Why does this little number song go so HARD
It does look like dr seuss so that does look pretty cool
I always wondered where this was from, but after watching that adam neeley episode now i know!
Me playing viscous in Deadlock:
An old Sesame Street classic recreated.. 😁👍
Kevin Flaherty: Stewie being in that ball. What a nightmare.
i wish that would be first video on TH-cam
Classic scene indeed
I really thought this animation was facinating as a kid, and I still like it decades later!
This was really funny! Too bad the other versions of this clip got marked as "for kids"
It pretty much is, but it doesn't mean adults can't go back and wax nostalgic about it! COPPA needs to be changed or go!
@@chrisrj9871Family Guy is it for kids
What episode of Family guy is that one
The father, the son, and the holy Fonz
Declan Ferranti thanks
Noah Lawlor I got u
"The Father, The Son and the Holy Fonz"
When family used to be actually clever
Stewie took a trip to Sesame Street? Wow!
I’m getting Norma Tanega vibes from this song
I think i saw something like this elementary school once.......
That pinball sequence was from "Sesame Street", not "The Electric Company".
My favorite video about 12
(whispering) Twelve.
Back when Family Guy was actually funny
Stewie: yay, again again
Poor Stewie. LOL 😂
Pinball (1 to 12)
Its fun getting older and trying acid and realizing how much of the art you grew up on was done by people who did tons of acid
Zachary
Hold up,is that how Stewie becane a black ball
im surprised stewie hasnt vommited yet during that hell
Tweeeeeelve!!
I know this is 15 years late (almost to the day!) but that is from Sesame Street not The Electric Company.
That's is the originally in Sesame Street.
Really, the pointer sisters? how do you know this, and where did you find this out?😕🤨🤔
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinball_Number_Count
Did Dan Avidan send you here?
Most Z-Genners (possibly all of them) wouldn't even understand what this reference came from.
