Show No. 4097
Street Scene: Zoe needs to find a rock-sitter for Rocco, while she goes to swimming class. Zoe doesn't want Elmo as a rock-sitter because he's so mean to Rocco, and she doesn't want Gina because she's so busy, so she hires Telly. Telly agrees, but isn't too sure exactly how to rock-sit. Zoe tells him that Rocco likes rock-music and rock-stories. Elmo tries to discourage Telly "Rocco's just a rock!", but Telly wants to do a good job, and after hearing Baby Bear talk about Goldilocks being invited to lunch, gave him the idea to tell the story of "Goldi-rock and Baby Bear". Telly runs out of ideas for a rock-song, as Bob and Alan (both as Elvis) sing "Rock Around the Rock". Telly and Rocco seem happy now, as Zoe returns from her swimming class. Telly enjoyed being rock-sitter so much, Zoe hires Telly as rock-sitter on Wednesdays and Fridays.
Newbies: Rocks are all around us film, Prairie Dawn and Cookie Monster introduce the letter of the day as H as Prairie Dawn accidentally eats the letter of the day showing Cookie Monster that he always eats it, The Count and The Countess introduce the number of the day as 18, Which is alive: Cookie Monster or a rock, The Adventures of Trash Gordon on the Planet Gorgonzolla.
Long-Time, No-Sees: H is for hat film, "Say Hola Instead of Hello" with Gloria Estaphan, Number of the day animation
Classic Skits: "And She Says Thank You to Me"
Well, I think we're all just about sick of all these Rocco episodes, so this episode wasn't all that great, except for Bob and Alan's Elvis bit. And I enjoyed seeing (and hearing) Jim Henson's Ernie. Prairie Dawn's impression of Cookie Monster was also hilarious, especially when he asked her "Is that voice coming from YOU?!". For some strange reason, I was predicting we'd have a new Elmo's World segment (something like "Elmo's World of Rock"), but that didn't happen. So, I give this episode a 1-2-3-4-4.5

Good review. Yeah, to me this street story wasn't all too exciting except for Alan and Bob dressed as Greasers. It seems to me that Alan and Bob have become good buddies. This episode is way to similar to the other babysitting street story with Telly and Baby Bear trying out for the job of Dorothy's fish sitter. Just boring. And the rock thing is fun to an extent but sometimes it is overdone in my opinion. Because its a rock, unlike the whole imaginary Snuffy stuff where things actually happened.
Also, Prairie's Cookie Monster impression was classic. It is always fun to see her get all ruffled.
Your reviews are great. I can't wait to get my own computer back from the shop so I can try and work on my site. And your reviews can have a nice little home there. Here's hopin'!

Good point BEAR, I mean for two years in a row they did a "Mrs. Chicken thinks Rocco's an egg" storyline, in two different ways: 1. upfront, 2. Elmo and Zoe were circus performers looking for the missing Rocco. I think Elmo is going overboard with his hatred for Rocco, always complaining and whining to Zoe about how Rocco doesn't even live, and that she looks silly talking to a rock, BUT, did he forget about his beloved blanket? It's not alive either, and he talks to it all the time, and he looks silly talking to it, so he shouldn't be treating Zoe like that, for he too is like that.
Another non-new, but I've never seen before, so here's another review!!!
Show No. 4098
Street Scene: Prairie Dawn in the anchor of her own news show, and has a big scoop as Goldilocks (new puppet and new voice) takes over other nursery rhymes. She takes over Little Miss Muffet's tuffet and her curds and whey, and then takes over Little Jack Horner's corner, Christmas pie, and plum. The two nursery rhyme characters are very upset, and run to Mother Goose, only to find Big Bird and Baby Bear. Big Bird and Baby Bear tell them to stand up to Goldilocks, and fight for what's theirs, but that doesn't work. Alan tells them to talk to Goldilocks, and explain how they feel which turns out to work after all, and everyone's nursery rhymes are restored.
New Characters: Goldilocks (not sure who played her), Little Miss Muffet (possibly Stephanie D'Abruzzo?), and Little Jack Horner (maybe Noel MacNeil?)
Newbies: Traction Jackson film about playing basketball, Cookie Monster plays the Letter Of The Day Game for the letter Y, unedited version of Journey To Ernie with nursery rhymes.
Classic Skits: That's the story of Bert's Blanket
I really liked this episode alot, I just miss the old Goldilocks. Oh well, beggars can't be choosers. And it's not everyday the street scene involves Prairie, so I loved that. So I give this episode a 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10!

It seems like they grew up Goldilocks. Giving her darker hair, a deeper voice, and made her bigger allowing her to push those poor nursery rhyme kids around.
Does it seem like Goldilocks never thinks about other people when she does these things to Baby Bear and to others? And how about when she was pigging out on all those curds and whey and pie and then shouting at Alan to bring her more? That girl's gotta learn that the entire world doesn't revolve around her!
