Ahh, Happy Birthday Sesame Street!!
My favorite was the guy who always got paint on him from sitting on a bench or something. Mr. Snuffalupagus (sp?) – who when I haven’t met a friends bf or gf that is what they get called, and of course 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12welve!!!
Here in Spain they call it:
Barrio Sésamo
it’s not only a street, it’s a hood!!

Snuffleupagis. LOVEHIM! I was always so annoyed by the creatures that would honk all the time haha. Barney, Sesame Street, and Mr. Rogers were my faves when I was little little.

Ernie’s “dance yourself to sleep” is STILL a favorite of mine, but it was already posted.

This is one of my favorite vignettes: http://www.imdb.com/video/hulu/vi3051094809/ – am I weird for wanting to watch it in HD?

Trent, you’ve got to pick up some of the Sesame Street Old School DVDs with the classic skits and songs on them. We play them for our 5-year-old and she loves them!

When I was little my favorite was Grover, I apparently couldn’t say his name though so according to my parents I called him Dadoo. I’m not sure how I got Dadoo from Grover.

I was 7 when Sesame Street started. It was a favourite of mine. My kids all watched it, now my little grandkids do! It’s one of those shows that I can still watch with them.

I always loved the sketch where Grover was the waiter and the crabby guy with the moustache was the customer and something would always go wrong with his order…

How about Roosevelt Franklin?? It would be considered so ‘politically incorrect’ today….

How many times have I sung the Rubber Duckie song to my son in his lifetime?? I STILL sing it to him and he’s 13! Maybe that’s why he’s such a snot to me these days.. ;)

Ok..This is my last comment about SS! Trent, thanks for reminding me of how awesome it was..Is it bad that I now want another baby so I can see the joy of the Sesame Street discovery on his/her little face??

Sesame Street and Mr. Rogers were staples in my house growing up..All 5 of us kids were totally addicted..It seriously brought a tear to my eye when my son first started watching Sesame Street and loved it just as much as we all did..Such a great kid’s show!
