I adore the music in this one. It's so sweet! The least the other nannygoats could say after she put on that nifty necklace was "Nice", "Nifty" and "Neato"!
Oh I love the music! Back then there was always a great variety of musical styles from jazz to this sweet, childlike, Beatrix Potter sound whenever these types of sketches would come on. As a child they taught me alot
I LOVE THIS... when I was a kid I used to sing it to my Mom all the time, whose name was Nancy. She HATED when I would do that, especially when I said Nancy you Nincompoop!!!!
This cartoon was my first referral to Nantucket, a quaint, beautiful island off of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. When I first saw this as a toddler, little did I know that Nantucket was going to be one of my favorite childhood vacation spots in the U.S.
I loved these clips. I guess Nancy didn't give any f**** that day. I was just watching the Witch one and I couldn't help but laugh at dialog which shows you it's by the same group.
"Instead of nibbling her nails, she started to notice noodles." I love this cartoon, the dialogue, the music, everything. Did anything ever come of that Nancy the Nannygoat / Wanda the Witch spinoff that was rumored to be in the works? No I'm joking of course.
Always liked this one--it is truly up there, with the classic "Wanda the Witch," which teaches W, using a very similar method, in terms of being a story using an entertaining method of teaching the "letter of the day," by supplying a number of words in the story,that begin with the letter in question. Great memories, of "Old School Sesame Street,"no doubt.
I remember this - a creative collection of 'n' words that one can call 'noteworthy nonsense.' That is, even if something doesn't appear to make sense at first, the fact that someone was able to come up with such an idea deserves notice.
Nancy doesn't get any respect. After all the verbal abuse, she had a nervous breakdown. She then changed her lifestyle by getting rid of the napkin, put on a necklace, and stopped nibbling on her nails. She still gets ridiculed by granny nanny about her new hobby of noticing noodles. Give her a break! I think she should take her nightingale and move far away from Nantucket.
I've actually forgotten about the word nincompoop, used to mean a dummy, or a stupid person, of course, until recently, when I have watched these SS classics. You will hear nincompoop in the premiere episode of SS(which I have a DVD of), where Kermit uses it as an N word, during his W lecture(because Cookie Monster, then unnamed, comes along and started eating the W, and first turned it into an N), so Kermit starts talking about N, then.
i was little and got a cat who was kind dumb so i was watching this and called my cat ninkumppoop she didn't have a name atthis time so since then it just stuck lol so when ever i saw this i would think of my cat
oh I love you, love2register, now if you post either the scary 'louis & bob paste up the train tunnel billboard' OR (oh please!!!) the animated bit where the girl talks to the cracks on her walls in the shapes of animals I will pledge allegiance to you daily...
OYE!NICE to kNow that video still is N-joyed by fellow aNimators, this spot was done by me aNimation meNtor Tee Collins who also did Wanda the Witch... eNjoy!
Around her neck she wore a narrow napkin? That really IS weird. I wonder what brand it was...perhaps Kotex. Did they ever show this in other English-speaking countries?
OMG!!!! You found it!!! I have been looking for this one. None as my friends seem to believe me when I say the Nancy the Nannygoat existed.... even though the other Nannygoats are quite mean, it was always just cute to me. I guess this got me into Alliteration in my writing. Thank you!!!!
They actually used and wrote out Nincompoop?! Wow, that sooo wouldn't fly on today's politically correct children's television shows, especially not on Sesame Street!
Nancy Pelosi the Nanny goat. Went to the nutty Nanny goat farm. In Washington DC on Capitol hill. She said we have to pass Obama care to see what's in it. Yet it was so great that she excluded herself from it. The end.
I adore the music in this one. It's so sweet! The least the other nannygoats could say after she put on that nifty necklace was "Nice", "Nifty" and "Neato"!
The music in this segment is like WOW. Peace.
I thought I was the only one with that in mind as a child aww
Music by Johnny Pearson, it's also the theme to British series "Mary, Mungo and Midge"
@@what-uc, watch?v=mHpiydmqBZI Peace.
Oh I love the music! Back then there was always a great variety of musical styles from jazz to this sweet, childlike, Beatrix Potter sound whenever these types of sketches would come on. As a child they taught me alot
One of the best ever. I think Nancy is a good lesson in doing your own thing and not caring what others think.
I LOVE THIS... when I was a kid I used to sing it to my Mom all the time, whose name was Nancy. She HATED when I would do that, especially when I said Nancy you Nincompoop!!!!
There's no pleasing that grandmother...
Peter Paul She was Nasty
Kate Blais and Not Nice.
I would say to Nancy...be yourself, don't let others tell you how to live. Classic clip.
Never notice nasty nanny goats.
Well I guess you can say that Nancy is a scapegoat in this situation.
Clever pun on scapegoat.
OMG......I had been searching for this, but then forgot about.....Thanks so much for posting...haven't seen this in well over 30 years !!!!!!
The music in this is the theme tune to Mary, Mungo and Midge.
The song is « Mini Walking » from the KPM 1000 library
Woo
This cartoon was my first referral to Nantucket, a quaint, beautiful island off of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. When I first saw this as a toddler, little did I know that Nantucket was going to be one of my favorite childhood vacation spots in the U.S.
Thanks for posting! This truly is a classic Sesame Street clip...along with "we all live in a Capital I" Love it!!!
To this day I will say, "Numbskull! Nitwit! Nincompoop!" all thanks to this skit. 😂
I loved these clips. I guess Nancy didn't give any f**** that day. I was just watching the Witch one and I couldn't help but laugh at dialog which shows you it's by the same group.
I'm starting to notice noodles these days as well....
😂😂😂😂😂 Nice👌👌👌👌👌
Thank you for this. I never thought I'ld see it again. Love it!
"Mini Walking" by Johnny Pearson
Now and again I still notice noodles. Thank you Nancy!
Be yourself, Nancy! I always wondered why the other nannygoats cared what she wore round her neck.
This is great- and I love your classic NE aquarium clip too!! Now, if I could just find wanda the witch...
"Numbskull! Nitwit! Nincompoop!" -- these are just a few of the words that you'll NEVER hear on a golf course!!!
Charlotte Rae did the voice of Granny Nannygoat.
Brilliant. Thx for sharing.
Leave Nancy alone! She's just a kid! 8)
these crack me up LMBO!!!!
This was my first encounter with the word "ninny" as a child...and I have loved it ever since!!!
"Instead of nibbling her nails, she started to notice noodles." I love this cartoon, the dialogue, the music, everything. Did anything ever come of that Nancy the Nannygoat / Wanda the Witch spinoff that was rumored to be in the works? No I'm joking of course.

I love this!!! So much fun!!! Nanny goats who nibble noodles while knitting are nincompoops. Is what I remembered but alas, I was wrong!

She could move north to Newfoundland.
I'm thinking that this one is the same thing as the W!!
Yes,I think so,since the whole style of this matches that of Wanda the Witch perfectly. Plus it sounds like the same narrator.
I recognise the tune on this cartoon, was it specially composed? Because it was used as the theme for Mary, Mungo and Midge as well.
I once worked with a girl who claimed her grandmother was the narrator of this and "Wanda The Witch."
Gosh I wish I was a kid again 👌👍
This made so much more sense when I was 5.
My grandma 👵 name is Nancy ‼️💯
Charlotte Rae.
Yeah it's nutty.
That Granny goat sounds like Normon Bates mother
Totally forgot about this one
Anyway, I have actually forgotten about "nincompoop," it's one of those "dated" terms, in today's world.
Just like the word swell, used as an adjective..."Gee, Mary that sounds swell, let's go get a soda pop." It sounds so 1950's Leave It to Beaverish.
TOOOOOO FUNNY!!!!!!
I'm certain this music was also in some sort of British kids' TV bit.
I think it's nutsies-a slang term for being crazy.
Nancy!!! Don't be a NINNY!!...Nancy's grandma was a bitchola. Lol
I forgot just how weird this one was until I saw it again.
With this being done by the person who did Wanda the Witch, I'm guessing this aired during the first season.
They're may well be nutty or naughty nannygoats...but there are some wig-wearin witches who are wacky.
A double lesson. The letter N, and deportment
quincy
I think it's "nutty" insteady of naughty. I agree it's strange. Nutty, even.
A sequel to Wanda the witch!
Notice noodles..lol!!

This one one of the ways I learned about the letter N. This Comment was brought to you by the letter N.
Nancy was a ninny! LOL
Ah the good ol' days when people used words like 'nincompoop'
i was little and got a cat who was kind dumb so i was watching this and called my cat ninkumppoop she didn't have a name atthis time so since then it just stuck lol so when ever i saw this i would think of my cat
oh I love you, love2register, now if you post either the scary 'louis & bob paste up the train tunnel billboard' OR (oh please!!!) the animated bit where the girl talks to the cracks on her walls in the shapes of animals I will pledge allegiance to you daily...
OYE!NICE to kNow that video still is N-joyed by fellow aNimators, this spot was done by me aNimation meNtor Tee Collins who also did Wanda the Witch... eNjoy!
I'm sorry dariaE, I don't have them but maybe someone else does? Can we discuss terms for a weekly pledge?
She wearing a dress or...a normal nightgown?
Someone in an earlier post was saying that Charlotte Rae, Edna Garrett did this. Is that true ??
Did you notice how all the nannygoats were giants and Nancy and her N shaped trailer was pretty small?
NANCY Pelosi
I thought that voice sounded familiar. Mrs. G from Eastland School
granny nanny goat is négative nag lol
So is noticing noodles a thing?
Around her neck she wore a narrow napkin? That really IS weird. I wonder what brand it was...perhaps Kotex.
Did they ever show this in other English-speaking countries?
what is the song
Obviously done by the same person who did "Wanda the witch".
What about the N with wheels?
Anyone notice the narrarator sounds.....what's a word for 'fucking sexy' that starts with the letter 'n'? Hmmm....
OMG!!!! You found it!!! I have been looking for this one. None as my friends seem to believe me when I say the Nancy the Nannygoat existed....
even though the other Nannygoats are quite mean, it was always just cute to me. I guess this got me into Alliteration in my writing.
Thank you!!!!
It,s from all star alphabet.
No it wasn't
Granny nanny goat, knock off needling Nancy and go back to knitting!!!
?? I don't get it.. Thought I understood it when I was a kid...
I think all teachers are nitwits!
Nincompoop!!!
lol I know WHO you said, idk WHO she is
I'm sorry, who?
Remember Diffren't Strokes & The Facts Of Life ?? She played Edna Garrett.
They actually used and wrote out Nincompoop?! Wow, that sooo wouldn't fly on today's politically correct children's television shows, especially not on Sesame Street!
