Sesame Street turns... ( read the article to find out!)

 Today, we have some really exciting news for all Muppet fans that have been a child after 1969!!!!! Well, today Sesame Street turned 45! Here's a little history about Sesame Street:
  Sesame Street was first thought out by Lloyd Morrisett and Joan Ganz Cooney and a whole bunch of people that used to be on a famous children's show called Captain Kangaroo and they blah blah blahbydy blahbydy blah blah sir-blahs-a-lot BLAH! The point is they dreamt that someday there would be a educational show with puppets in it, which is practically one-fourths of the educational shows we see today, but for 1969 this was a first!
  " But,"  Joan Ganz Cooney said, " can we hire an actually decent puppeteer, that isn't the best in the business, like Jim Henson?" They thought of nothing. ( NOTE: Those past 2 sentences are not true, but this is:) They decided to hire Jim Henson, and Frank Oz.
 Wait, two men could not puppeteer so much puppets!!!! So, they chose another puppeteer who went by the name of Caroll Spinney. In the first episode, Oscar was orange, Big Bird hardly had any feathers on his head, Ernie's eyes were placed weird, Kermit sounds weird, and Cookie Monster is nowhere even close to Cookie Monster. There was a lot of fixing to do.
  There were also some pretty decent HUMAN actors on Sesame Street, too, but we want to learn about the Muppets.
  By the 2nd season, there was some more Muppets, and the show was awesome. If you want proof, here is one of the episodes from the 2nd season:

 The show kept on getting better and better, until in the early 1980's ELMO came a huge star.

  Anyhow, today I was surprised to hear this exchange on radio this morning. However, I pay no attention to names, so I'm going to address them as " Somebody"s.

 

 

    SOMEBODY: Today, let's celebrate the 45th anniversary of Sesame Street!

    SOMEBODY 2: Yeah, I always hated Oscar the Grouch.

    SOMEBODY: There's nothing likable about him.

    SOMEBODY 3: But, Snuffy was always my idol on the show.

    SOMEBODY 2: I always hated Big Bird!

 

 Is that even allowed on the radio? Anyhow, take an hour out of your day to go watch an episode or two or three of everybody's favorite educational show, Sesame Street! See you tomorrow with a new article!
