    Sesame Street Fan Fiction

    Sesame Street Fan Fiction continued IT'S NOT EASY BEING ORANGE (Part two) :grouchy: By G.B. (Open again to street scene). (Gordon, Susan, Bob, and others stand around Oscar's can. Gordon is holding a bag of trash in his left arm as he knocks on Oscar's trash can lid with...

    Sesame Street Fan Fiction

    What stands out about my fan fiction is that I wrote them when I was and silly enough to believe they could actually be used on Sesame Street. I submitted them numerous times until the Children's Television Workshop gave me a polite letter of rejection. Take a look at a Sesame Street...

    Heh...I wonder if it's only a matter of time before Hooper's Store becomes a McDonald's.

    Mail It Shop

    You'd think they might have updated it to an appliance shop where Luis and Maria make new toasters and other things that people can buy. The Mail It Shop just seemed like such a bizarre change. Then again, I have to confess that I've never seen a single episode with the Mail It Shop so I don't...

    Who is this Sesame character?

    It's said that Mumford and The Count share the same head, and come to think of it, I've never seen them together except in illustrated books.

    Hi. It had the exact same street scenes from the show except for that last dubbed in line.

    Sesame Street censorship

    This example is not exactly censorship, but rather a strange choice of words of editing from TV to video: In the late eighties, Sesame Street did a show where most of the human cast along with Big Bird go up on the roof to have a sing along. They are accompanied by Biff and Sully who...

    Ernie and Bert Question

    Most of the early cast, both human and muppet, on Sesame Street had only one name, either first or last. Gordon, Susan, Bob, Mr. Hooper, Ernie, Bert, Prof. Hastings, David, Maria, Luis. One notable exception was Roosevelt Franklin. Then we got some other characters with two names like Herbert...

    Ernie and Bert Question

    I believe that the concept for Ernie and Bert was originally inspired by the idea of a skit where a child always outsmarted a grown-up.

    Sesame Street censorship

    Here are two other redone skits: In the extended "Put Down The Ducky", the scene with Pee Wee Herman was deleted after the scandal. In the skit "Birdland", scenes with David were deleted after Northern Calloway died.

    Has Guy even met Sonny?

    All I know is that years ago in the early 70's, a game show skit was aired (I don't remember what it was about). The host was introduced as Sonny Friendly, but looked just like Guy Smiley. I believe that was a very early skit before Guy Smiley was an established character. Years later in the...

    In the song "Everyone Loves Ice Cream" the mean boy with the green pointy head calls his brother a "sissy". This line is dubbed out on Noggin.

    The closing themes of Sesame Street

    There was also a closing theme in the 70's that featured hands holding a steering wheel while down a road.

    What do you think about Sam the Robot?

    I'm an old man of 35, so I remember some specific skits that Sam was in: I believe that Sam the Robot's first appearance was with Susan and the second Gordon (Hal Miller). Sam keeps insisting that Sesame Street is Mulberry Street where he is supposed to meet a cement mixer. He insists...

    Cookie Monster eats Ernie's Rubber Duckie??!

    :p :( There was a skit in the 80's that actually implied that Bert broke Ernie's Rubber Ducky out of anger. It was a "Miami Mice" skit and Ernie explains why his Ducky is in the Fix-It-Shop. He tells how Bert was sleeping and he squeaked Rubber Ducky by his ear. Ernie goes on to say, "And...
