It’s called Street Gang, by the end, a portion of the skit can be seen, I am posting this comment as the credits roll. I’ll upload a screenshot of it to Google Drive and post the link later, this is crazy

Oh, now I see what you're saying. So only legal action would be pursued with the leaking of the Snuffy divorce episode. I believe the same case would happen with the Episode 847 Wicked Witch episode with Margaret Hamilton.
Previously I got my proof about legal action against internet leaks from reading on an article on Lost Media Wiki about the 1973 Doraemon anime. The episodes of that anime were occasionally shown at Doraemon fan conventions in Japan, but due to the production studio being defunct and owing to rights complications, they can't be released to DVD. And when asked by many fans about releasing possible surviving footage, Masumi Jun, Chief Producer of Doraemon '73, wrote in reply:
"Dear American fans of Doraemon
Thank you for the email. In 1973 we broadcasted NTV Doraemon (NTV Doraemon and Old Dora is what the Japanese call Doraemon '73), for a long time I thought that it was completely forgotten. So in 2003, I made a website about it. I got lots of emails from people saying that they wanted to see clips from the show. So I made a membership page with a Username and Password and uploaded the Opening and Ending.
Within a few minutes, I had heard that someone with access to the page had uploaded both clips onto another page (2chan). I removed the clip from my site right away. But because I gave it away only for a moment it is now all over YouTube and other sites.
Due to me uploading it I got in some trouble with the law, I am resolving the issue now but because of that, I will refrain from uploading the footage online. Though I have made it available at lectures and such for research use.
While Doraemon is still on the air, I am not allowed to release the footage. I hope you understand

The tricky thing about 847 is it was available to the public but then they changed their mind... not sure what would happen if it got released; if it somehow survived a Betamax recording there's nothing they can do about that, but if someone from the inside releases it there may be some problems, but I don't really see what Sesame Workshop could do about it or why.
And I'm just taking a guess at all this; I would be absolutely gobsmacked if they took someone to court over posting a Professor Hastings skit on YouTube - talk about a waste of time. Why would they not want people to see it?
I don't even think Sesame Street cares about their "lost" content; 847 isn't available cause it didn't go over well, and everything else isn't available just because there's so much stuff to sort through. Margaret Hamilton surely can't be the only guest star lost to the sands of time, right?
Edit: Watch them one day just post the Margaret Hamilton street scenes to their YouTube channel (for Halloween or something) with no fanfare, not even knowing what they're doing.
You're never going to believe this, 847 is out there now!
