>>As always, the new episodes will include segments featuring well-known celebrity guests including Academy Award winner, Jamie Foxx; Grammy Award winner, John Legend; Today host Matt Lauer; comedienne Amy Sedaris; and Grey’s Anatomy star T.R. Knight. In addition, Sesame Street will continue to explore the world of pop culture through original parodies such as: “Law & Order: Special Letters Unit M;” “Scramalot;” “The Breakfast Club;” “Survivor: Musical Chairs,” featuring a Jeff Probst look-alike Muppet; and “Outrageous Makeover: Home Edition,” in which Grover takes on the role of Ty Pennington and finds, after adding a few doors and then subtracting some, he and his crew have no way of getting out of their newly renovated room.
Sesame Street will take on some of the best known films and musicals in a new parody segment designed to model and reinforce the importance of family meal time called “Dinner Theatre.” This season’s parodies include Man of La Muncha, Veg Side Story, and Guess What We’re Having for Dinner.<<
Parodies, boy! It's all about the parodies. I'd Kill to see an episode where the count watches his favorite show, One Piece, about pirates unearthing a treasure... a golden Number One.
I just hope Scramalot is a parody of Camelot and not Spamalot, since the one thing that hurts my brain is a parody of a parody.
I especially like seeing "The Breakfast Club" in there. While most of the satires are pretty current, it's fun to see one from the 80's.
