Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 44

What segments were in today's Episode? I missed it today!

Also the Trackson Jackson Imagination song, the Super Grover 2.0 about the Lemonade, and Athlete the Musical.

You'd think for somebody who's on a regular TV show, and a comedy at that, Billy Gardel wouldn't have been as stiff as he was.

 

[Drtooth]

Maybe he's just not used to working with Muppets.

Then again, Elmo and Abby barely gave him anything to work with. They really should have got a funnier character to play off of.

Also, I'm not a fan of Muppet bits following Muppet bits immediately (Murray stuff excluded), so I wish they had flip-flopped the Basketball film and the Tyler Perry bit (which was nice, and among Kevin's last stuff).

 

[Drtooth]

Totally. That basketball bit just felt odd being the inbetween sketch for Super Grover and ETM. That's usually where the celebrity bit/parody segment goes. That made the whole thing feel out of whack, and disappointing before the obvious Elmo rerun.

I didn't even know that there was a new episode on today. I mean, it was a repeat episode, but still with new material. I thought even those were only on Thursdays. I guess I have to start checking the listings more often. But I guess I didn't miss anything new besides Billy Whatshisname, but correct me if I'm wrong on that.

There was only ONE new thing in today's repeat episode! It was very good. I love that Cookie calls little girls "Lady." Plus, Abby was so kind at the end. Here's the sketch I'm talking about: www.sesamestreet.org/play#media/video_d0f346f4-4b43-443b-915d-f970552d1ad2.

Wow! It seems like Abby is trying to get back at Cookie Monster for that checker incident a few weeks ago. I don't know why she looked so surprised when CM demonstrated subtraction by devouring the rest of the cookies, I think most of us could have predicted that. I guess she still hasn't been on the street long enough to know about these things. Lol.

I have to say, when I saw Tyler Perry on the show, he almost looks like Kevin Clash in some ways. Too bad it wasn't Clash performing Elmo in that segment.
