    Waiting for Season 40

    Not so fast... As a die-hard Muppet fan who grew up watching Sesame Street (and who may or may not happen to have friends at Sesame Workshop), I've been keeping a close eye on this Abby segment for a while. I have to jump in and make a comment — That is NOT what Abby will look like in...
