Episode 0276

The third season introduced six new human cast members -- Maria, Luis, David, Tom, Rafael and Molly. This episode also introduced a new Muppet, Mr. Snuffleupagus. The original Snuffleupagus puppet looks very strange to modern viewers. His eyes are yellow, and point in different directions, giving him a spooky appearance. Still, his relationship with Big Bird, as established in this episode, remains absolutely consistent to this day.
