Hi, Josh,
Sorry I keep falling behind. Thanks for finding this old video. This puppeteer is pretty talented. I was especially impressed with the way he had Pirro scrambling with his legs, trying to get up on the chair seat. He also has a manner much like that of Fred Rogers: unhurried, gentle, simple enough for small children.
Again, you add interest to a video obviously aimed at very young children. I guess you'll go over the heads of the intended audience, but now their parents can watch, too, and not find this excruciating. :)
