    When Bert fell down, he was lucky that he didn't get a concussion while in a coma. Meanwhile, Ernie could count whatever he wanted too.

    Haha! Totally classic. When Bert freaks out it is so darn funny.

    I can"t believe That Ernie"s Stomach Goes Up and Down When he blows up a pretend Balloon

    I swear one of these day the writers should definitely end 1 of these bedtime sketches with Ernie clapping his hands, turning off the lights

  • TheLefty777 says:

    This still makes me laugh. I remember this from when I was five.

  • HappyLilBunny18 says:

    youll wake up the whole neighborhood!

  • peachesbailey says:

    Bert's facial expressions and the way he screams when the balloon pops makes this whole skit!

  • BigEasyWinger says:

    Poor Bert, he can never catch a break! I'd be just as cranky with Ernie as a roomate. :P

  • briansky10 says:

    I agree as to how Ernie's imagination could wake Bert up? That's going a little too far into fantasy with this sketch. Nevertheless I love the part where the balloon popping literally scares Bert out of his sleep. That cracks me up!!

  • cbsteffen says:

    It used to scare me.

  • alarkra says:

    OMG, I first saw this when I was about 4 and I then used to count sheep to fall asleep after seeing this, picturing them like they are in this... I no longer need to count sheep to fall asleep though! I know, I'm 'special'...

    Ernie's imagination is loud.

  • NantoVision says:

    Good comedy doesn't always need to make sense.

  • maxi11518 says:

    how does ernies imagination wake bert up?

  • NantoVision says:

    "None of those sirens."

  • jgr2045 says:

  • Shadowhawk28 says:

  • brianklick says:

  • garak0410 says:
