His (Big Bird's) personality-and voice- was kinda goofy and he was not all that bright. he had bearly any featers on top of his head in the early years of 'Sesame' and he was like the 'village ideot'... as so to speak.

I am glad they changed his character. Otherwise, I could easily see Big Bird going the way of Jar Jar Binks!

Yeah, I saw the sketch in the first season where BB played the rhyming game with Gordon and Chris and he kept saying words that didn't rhyme. If that were made today, Big Bird would have been a heck of a lot smarter. In a way, that was sort of like what that elephant was doing in the recent ep where Elmo was playing school. I guess that character inherited the original Big Bird personality. Lol.
