I can't be the ONLY one who likes this new addition to the SS cast. In a season of lackluster letter and number segments, these characters outshine the rest of the non-muppet segments. I'm really hoping this becomes a new recurring segment past season 40.

If there's one thing that SS was strongly lacking for years, it was the recurring non-muppet/animated segment. Other than Trackson jackson, we only had the old Mo Willems Suzie Kabloozie things from the 90's. There was always been something... Pinball Number Count, the Bellhop, Teeny Little Super Guy, etc. And now we've got one which will hopefully stay as long as the others does.

You're not the only member of their fan club. They've definately been a high point during a season where the misses have outweighed the hits.

Its a cute segment. I'm sure that the young children get a big kick out of the characters' exaggerated voices.

Oh yeah. I'm sure we'd all rather see these 2 creative looking wacky guys than Hello Cookie and the same boring 1960's surfer music about the letter of the day. That gets less and less cute and more and more annoying every time I watch it.

And those freaking murals... and Karen Aqua animations... I never really cared for most of them.
