Okay, this is it — the last one. Mostly because it’s the last version that I know of, but hey, that’s okay. This one comes from one of the best TV shows of all time, the Animaniacs (specifically, epsiode #59, midway through “Woodstock Slappy”). If there’s anyone out there who can get me an .mp3 of this scene, I’d love it!
Update: This clip has been posted on YouTube! Who knows how long it’ll be there before the copyright police yank it, but it’s there now…. (via MeFi)

(Thanks to my friend Rick for tracking this down on videotape so I could finally see it after being told about it for years…still looking for that .mp3, though!)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, I’ve been searching for this forever. Hilarious!
I have a VOC file of it (from an old multimedia CD) low quality.
I love this skit!!.. I would also love to get the mp3, still no luck
I have that cartoon digitized somewhere. Will see if I can find the video. Meanwhile, here is the ogg soundtrack of this episode (note: the URL is case-sensetive): http://www.dolphinwave.org/Media/Local/WhoIsOnStage/WhoIsOnStage.ogg
I’ve found the cartoon. This part in XviD (3.5MB), captured from the old video tape (I’ve de-noised it as much as I could): http://www.dolphinwave.org/Media/Local/WhoIsOnStage/WhoIsOnStage.avi
If you don’t have a XviD video codec (no video plays, only the sound), you can get it there: http://www.divx-digest.tv/software/codec/XviD_Install.exe
Enjoy!
Dolphin — thanks so much! That’s great…very much appreciated.
Hey, I’d love this sketch, but the link doesn’t seem to be working. Could you please let me know if you have the file on a working site. I’d love to get it.
If anyone here is still interested (I, on a whim, decided to watch the show off of my satellite, and saved a copy. Like one of the previous posters said, it’s XVID, and trimmed down, but it’s 61Mb. Yeah, you need a fast connection!) go grab it at: http://www.tsqmadness.com/images/bin/woodstock_slappy.avi ..if anyone wants a high-qual MP3 of it, lemme know.
Cheers, man!
Please, good people of this site… I´m trying to find Woodstock Slappy to download, cause I think it is one olf the most clever and funny cartoons i´ve ever seen. I´ve tryed all the links you offered above, but none of them works. Someone can tell me where can I find it? Thanks so much,
I FINALLY GOT IT!!! We downloaded it off of “LimeWire” from a search on “Animaniacs”!
GOOD LUCK!!!
LOL! LMAO! How could you not love this?
Any ones knows the proceedure of converting video file for Nokia 3250?
