CC did appear in the 1985 SS film Follow That Bird as a newscaster. He at first mispronounced "Sesame" but was eventually corrected.

My (further) list of guests who should have appeared on the 'Street: 1992 to present: *Carrie Prejean (former Miss California who'd lost her title this year to Tami Ferrell because of something I won't bring up here) *Carroll Krieff (the woman who co-created her version of the Malibu Pilates...
