Assuming that "Sesame Street" is still being shown on Noggin, whether every week or every two weeks, what was the episode that aired last week... The morning after Mother's Day? I wonder if they chose an episode with a Mother's Day flavor to it.

If history is any indication, then since it was Mother's Day, Noggin would have skipped its chronological presentation and had inserted the episode from 1989 where Maria gives birth to Gabi.

Of course, I can't confirm this, but this is what they did last year.

Wow, you must have been pretty sad to have been thinking about this during your prom of all things....

How did your date take it? Were they understanding?

I didn't actually have a date, but I did sit at a table with some very pretty girls. One of them said, "We're not allowed to be sad here. This is for good times only." They tried to cheer me up, but they couldn't really. They said stuff like, "You can probably find them on eBay, or get them on DVD." But they're not fans of the show. They don't talk to the people at the network. They don't know the rules and regulations. And they don't know how poorly the show was doing in its old format.

It would be wonderful if they released a Classic Sesame Street DVD Collection, I just don't think it's feasible. And the Workshop cannot send out tapes of shows because it would cost too much to produce them. The thing is, they only tried to cheer me up because they don't know much about the show. They said they like it, but they don't know much about it. If you know what I mean. They're not really fans of the show. But people here at Muppet Central, especially me, because I am one of the few here who actually have communication with the people at the network(s). Sadly, I think we all know that it's pretty much gone forever.

Wow, you actually told people at the prom that you were saddened by the loss of SESAME STREET UNPAVED?

Did they even know about Noggin? Chances are, they probably didn't.

Well, some of them did. But see, that's another reason why it wasn't very popular. See, when Noggin first signed on in 1999, and when they were airing it religiously, very few people had Noggin. Practically no cable systems carried it, and it was only carried by the DISH Network. Then digital cable came into town, and we switched right away. But we were the first ones in town to get digital cable, and nobody knew. About 4 months later, more people started to get it. They knew that Noggin was one of the channels, but never knew they had old reruns of Sesame Street. Because even by then, it was only on during the wee hours. See, I was afraid for a long time that it was going to be going eventually. Usually, if the airing of a show like Sesame Street Unpaved keeps being decreased, AND they don't add anymore episodes (they just keep repeating the same ones), doesn't that mean that its on its way out?

Do you ever get that annoying reaction from your high school friends that you're too old for SESAME STREET?

Oh, yeah. Even my psychologist doesn't like the idea that I like Sesame Street at this age.

These pretty girls didn't really wanna talk about it, but because I was crying so hard, and so upset, they were willing to talk about it because it meant so much to me. Wasn't that nice of them?
