Sesame Street: Help in locating a segment[edit]

When I was a child, I used to watch Sesame Street. In a segment, there was this insect mound which showed termites. I'm trying to find that particular segment on YouTube. So far, no such luck. Who knows what I'm talking about?24.90.204.234 (talk) 07:05, 2 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is this it?Michael J 04:14, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No. It's not animated. It's more live action. Some music is playing while some children are narrating.24.90.204.234 (talk) 07:42, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Trying to identify episode from TV show somewhat like Twilight Zone[edit]

I'm trying to identify something I saw on TV many, many years ago, probably sometime between 1985 and 1995 or so. I thought it was an episode from the first Twilight Zone revival, but I can't seem to find anything like it in our list of episodes, so it must have been something else. What I remember was the ending: a man was in prison, for some reason, and he whiled away his time by devising chess problems which he then mailed to the world chess champion. Since he never received a reply, he believed he had beaten the champion and therefore considered himself the greatest chess genius in the world. Does anyone else remember this?--Rallette (talk) 08:55, 2 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Tales of the Unexpected, perhaps? Britmax (talk) 09:46, 2 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That's it! The Best Chess Player in the World. Thank you very much! Funny how very different it is, superficially, from what I remembered. But that last line, it stuck in my mind almost word for word.--Rallette (talk) 11:09, 2 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Walker, Texas Ranger Season 6 Episode's Jacob's Lader[edit]

It's difficult for me to understand some of the events for the episode called Jacob's Ladder. Did anyone see the episode called Jacob's Ladder?(Christopher12345678 (talk) 09:43, 2 December 2011 (UTC)).[reply]

Some people saw it, but probably not many who read this message board, so you might be better off asking at a Walker, Texas Ranger forum ([1][2]). There's a bit of info on the episode here. --Colapeninsula (talk) 13:11, 2 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If anyone saw the Episode Jacob's Ladder, then can someone please answer my questions? In the Episode Jacob's Ladder, is the Defendant's lawyer corrupted? In the Episode Jacob's Ladder, is the Defendant's lawyer actually Evil?(Christopher12345678 (talk) 10:23, 3 December 2011 (UTC)).[reply]
