glmill I absolutely love this show from my childhood! The characters (especially Elmo) are great, the writing and stories are professional, and the lessons that they teach are wonderful! You may think that all it teaches is letters, numbers, shapes, and colors, but actually, it's much more than that. It also teaches us about lessons that I think are much more mature than other kids shows, such as death, racism, childbirth, the handicapped, divorce, incarceration, the loss of a loved one or pet, grieving, families of loved ones in the army, and recently, they started teaching about autism, and they introduced a new Muppet with autism last year, named Julia. Sesame Street has not only been a show that we all grew up with when we were little, but it also taught about mature topics and serious issues, became a huge impact on children's television, became one of the most popular and longest-running TV shows of all time, and I'm also proud for them for now talking about autism, since I'm autistic myself. In other words, I think that Sesame Street is, without a doubt, the best kids show of all time, and I recommend that you check it out.

ultramatt2000-1 Sesame Street, what about it? It is one of the most celebrated shows of all time. It got referenced and parodied from MAD MAGAZINE to FAMILY GUY and children's cartoons such as POWERPUFF GIRLS. The episodes I saw was the ones from 1978 or 1979 to 1985. I knew characters not only the main ones like Big Bird, Oscar, Grover, Harry Monster, Cookie Monster, the Count, Telly, and of course Bert and Ernie. But also Don Music, Herbert Birdsfoot, Harvey Kneeslaper and Simon Soundman. They were funny and cool. I can remember the animated sequence like the sand animations of the letters, the "Noony-noony-noony" Typewriter Guy, the mumbling guy who mixes around the letters to read the perfect word, and my favorite, the pinball machine. I can go on. I will never forget the episode where Oscar meets his alien counterpart, Ozmar the Grouch. I will never forget the Count where at the end he counted Oscar's "Go away and leave me alones" at the end of one episode. I also won't forget the relaxing animal footage. What pleasant memories. But alas! As of the late 80's, there were the following cartoons and children's shows: YOU CAN'T DO THAT ON TELEVISION MIGHTY MOUSE: THE NEW ADVENTURES BEETLEJUICE PEE-WEE'S PLAYHOUSE THE COMPLETELY MENTAL MISADVENTURES OF ED GRIMELY DENNIS THE MENACE A PUP NAMED SCOOBY-DOOThese shows contains yelling, crashing, exploding, crude humor, face alterations, body alterations, removal of body-parts, trouble-making and mischief. It's terrible than terrible. Horrible than horrible. With these shows SESAME STREET jumped in the wacky show bandwagon. Why? Because Joan Gantz Cooney said 40 years ago, "We are trying to rival cartoons". MR. ROGERS NEIGHBORHOOD and READING RAINBOW don't even want to think of going into that bandwagon. They stayed the true and faithful old selves. In the 90's more wacky cartoons, especially the ones from cable were popular and SESAME STREET is rivaling them. Basically the more wacky TV shows appear, the wackier SESAME STREET gets. The worst part is, that there was a lot of political correctness running rampant here. I read an article that the old SESAME STREET from the 70's and early 80's, was unfit for today's kids. I read it and it blew it out of proportions. I knew that it was muck-raking journalism in action. It is like changing Santa's catchphrase, "Ho-ho-ho" to "Ha-ha-ha" because of some feminist. Or removing Frosty's pipe because it promotes smoking. Removing the guns of Elmer Fudd and Yosimite Sam because it promotes violence. Removing Daff Duck's or Sylvester's lisp because it sounds gay. Kicking out Porky Pig because he sound retarded with his stuttering. IT'S ENTERTAINMENT AND FUN!! WITHOUT IT, IT'S NOTHING!! I hate the way it is going now. Elmo is super-annoying. I grew up on Big Bird and Grover, they were wise and encouraging and positive. Elmo was so bratty and drove other muppets bananas (e.g. Bert and Kermit). He was hogging up the spotlight. So there you have it. My review of the longest running kids show. This review is brought you by the number 40. 40 years of sunny days and making children laugh and learn.
