Bert and Ernie can finally air their uncensored gangsta rap videos!
The Big Bird-centric episode ‘Yellow Wedding’ is gonna go the fuck OFF.
Thanks. It’s a good article. I can’t stand the character, his voice is so grating and everything surrounding him is so one-note and patronizing - similar to Barney, another show that pushed me away from the PBS shows I’d sat in front of for hours as a kid. I guess, as much as I think early Sesame Street holds up and…
I read a Kotaku article a while back about how earlier Sesame Street was focused on Big Bird as the primary character, and he’s about 6 years old and has a 5 or 6 year old’s understanding of things, and sets an example of how a thoughtful child should behave. But somewhere in the mid 90s they realized they sold a lot…
I don’t know. This is still one of my favorite Sesame Street videos.
Pfft. Once again, Chappelle did this like 15 years ago.
When I read that book on Sesame Street from 5-10 years ago, one of the running themes was what a difficult battle it was to keep the show on the air - one year, basically the only reason they survived was Tickle Me Elmo being such a huge hit. Elmo is one of the moments where, as I had aged out of the show and saw that…
Yes, I’m finally excited to see Big Bird full-frontal nudity and watch Oscar the Grouch hang dong
Still, it’ll be nice to finally get the uncut, unbleeped version of Sesame Street.
Speaking as someone with a two year old, Sesame Street has such a specific age range in mind (they do first letters of words primarily, and rarely mention numbers beyond 20), that they only have so many lessons to teach anyway. There’s like 400 episodes brought to you by the number 3. There’s a small list of free and…
If they secede again, I say not to let them back in this time..
This. Chelsea Manning wasn’t a whistleblower, she indiscriminately leaked classified secrets to Wikileaks. There’s a huge difference.
Of those 3, Manning did her time. Assange was a mooch for several years and Snowden punked out.
Or, or we take it down to the frame and foundation and rebuild.
I understand why there are many arguments around Manning, Snowden, and Assange.
As if the Talibanjos aren’t bad enough.
I can completely sympathize, actually. I was terrified of Molly the Mole on Pinwheel (an old Nickelodeon show in the 80’s, which is interestingly enough the entire reason Nickelodeon even exists as it does today, but I digress). This damn puppet haunted my nightmares as a little kid.
Even Sesame Place in Pennsylvania rethemes most of their rides to include Elmo.
