On this day, Sesame Street debuted 41 years ago.

Original runNovember 10, 1969 – present


It largely died sometime in the 1990's sometime after Jim Henson's death.

It's amazing to me how a show I grew up on has changed so drastically in the last 20 years to become something I don't even recognize.

All the humor, wittiness, and sense of enjoyment is lost today on idiot characters like Elmo, Abby Cadabby, and Zoe, largely in a effort to market and Elmo's world is turning current toddlers into future morons.
