Television - Sesame Street: Sunny Days, Sweeping The Clouds Away

I know, I know, you guys might think I'm a little weird putting this up. But in a good way, Sesame Street actually taught me a lot of things before going to school (Counting, Reading, Alphabet

) I practically grew up on this show when I was a child.

What I loved best were those Ernie & Bert skits, the Typewriter dude, Telly, Oscar in his days of being orange, Grover pissing off the blue man (whatever happened to that?)...I was just flipping through the channels and all of a sudden found an episode in which they were showing some old clips of SS. I was laughing my butt off when they showed a clip of Bert and Ernie in which Bert was singing that "Dance Myself to Sleep" song and all the sheep came in and was dancing with him before hauling Bert off, bed and all.

Looking back then and now...I can't believe what SS today has turned too (Unless you happen to be the lucky ones who got Noggin and watch the classics). It's kinda predictible. 10 minutes of a segment, then Journey to Ernie, then another five minute segment, Grover's Adventure then Elmo's World, then the last two minutes are about saying goodbye.

I don't know, IMO, SS has become a little too predictable.
