I know this video is labored IBM Training video, but it doesn’t really have the feel of a training video and my guess is that it was from either the October, 1967 episode of The Ed Sullivan Show or the George Burns episode of The Muppet Show (this seems more likely). This version of a similar sketch seems to be more in line with a training video, but again since their have been 3 versions of this same piece, it is hard to tell. What is cool about all 3 of them is that they show what appears to be a proto-Cookie Monster who has green fur and will eat just about anything. Is this the same monster pre-cookies? Doues the sugary cookie cause him to lose his teeth and change the color of his fur? I have no idea, but the video is great. Nom Nom Nom!
