I recently watched Sesame Street with my 5-year old brother and I found out that they added like electric guitars to the theme song....strange.

I will mourn the day the voice of Elmo dies. I wonder how many times they've had to replace Elmo's fish, Dorothy.

Growing up my parents were working ALOT (mainly to pay for my dads expensive college fees) so they weren't around so much. My favorite thing to do was ride my supa-fly big wheel but my parents weren't home, I couldn't ride it so I would just watch Sesame Street. Sesame Street taught me how to count, spell, read, dance, and fight addiction (cookie monster) I hope they keep going haha

Never was a big fan of sesame street. Ive always been a little freaked out by puppets. I think my favorite was Little bear and Gulla Gulla Island ohh and The Busy World of Riched Scarry. Anyone remember FACE?
