RE: Today in History: Sesame Street premieres for the first time ever
For sure Sesame Street was a huge part of my childhood. Not surprising since we are about the same age. It was a solid block of Sesame Street, Electric Company, 3-2-1 Contact, and Captain Kangaroo when I was a kid. My favorite character would probably have to be Cookie Monster. I can really identify with him :) I was just going through my records the other day trying to see which ones are still okay and which ones I have to pitch and I found my old Sesame Street sing-along album. Great stuff!
yeah cookie monster was pretty epic. I love the baby talk way that he speaks and i wonder if that part of his speech was introduced to let kids know that it is ok to talk that way but cookie monster isn't exactly an intellectual powerhouse in the gang so they might have been using some psychology there to trick kids into talking properly.
