Winnie (Judy Graubart) has been asked by J.J. (Skip Hinnant) to go to the dance, but there's just one problem...she doesn't know how to dance. The Short Circus kids drop the bizarre conversation they were in the middle of, so that they can help Winnie by teaching her a simple dance that anyone can do.

Ah,yes, plaid pants(what Julie is wearing here)-a fairly big fad of the 1970s.

Still another clue that this is from Season 2--this seemed to have been the Short Circus' "clubhouse," or whatever, in Season 2--you will find them hanging out here in other Season 2 skits, like the one where Kathy and Allison sing the song,"Let's Rap."

Season 2--two clues-Short Circus member Allison(Denise Nickerson, of Willy Wonka fame), and the way Kathy(Melanie Henderson)is wearing her hair here--that's the way she wore her hair, in Season 2.

Denise Nickerson was the only Short Circus member who was popular before EC. She was Violet Bick who turned into a blueberry in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

Can't you just picture Maria(Sonia Manzano)on Sesame Street, being asked to a dance, with Luis(Emilio Delgado),or, until 1988, when Maria and Luis got married, of course, can't you picture David(the late Northern Calloway)asking her to go to a dance, with him, and Maria reluctant to go, because she, too, couldn't dance, and the kids on Sesame Street, would teach her an easy dance that anyone can do(the way the Short Circus kids teach Winnie the "fling"here, so she can go to the dance with JJ).

Looks like the Fling would be great excercise. Not sure it would go over too well on the dance floor in 2013, tho.

Other actors' generic character names on the show (that I can remember that is) Sylvia- Hattie Winston JJ- Skip Hinnant Mark- Morgan Freeman Andy- Jim Boyd Carmella- Rita Moreno Roberto- Luis Avalos Can't remember if Bill Cosby ever had a "name"

Part of this song's instrumental track sounds eerily close to another Raposo song, "Three of These Kids Belong Together".

After this we'll all stroll on over to see Jack, Janet and Chrissy! OMG, this is SO the 70's! I love it!

The music reminds me of "Three of These Kids" from Sesame Street...Raposo flipped the track some and kept it the same also.
