In a thread on Metafilter, a bunch of people compiled a massive list of classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube. In a serious good karma move, J.D. has organized all the links into a single blog post. Clear the calendar.
Guy Smiley, those yipping aliens, and wow, A-B-C-D-E-F-Cookie Monster. And those Agent Smith guys trying to get the rhyming beatnik to conform? This could go on all night/day.

Come on, monsters! You don't have to cry! We can be happy! Yeah! [metafilter]
Wow. Thank you for posting this. I have been singing The Ladybug Picnic and one two three FOUR five, six seven eight NINE ten, eleven twelve... to my 5 month-old son for weeks now. It's great to see the original segments again.

Kermit and Cookie and the Mystery Box, It Ain't Easy Being Green. My favorites are Kermit the Forg (which I believe is no longer available), and Letter B.
