Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 37

Yes today was an awsome episode. It through me off when Elmo kept asking of who the baby was and what adoptions was until Gordon mention about him and Susan adopting Miles. Then the song with everyone getting the stuff ready for the baby to arrive was cool too. I did love the new song Ernie sang. I just love this episode to bits. Can't wait for tomorrow.

Yes. I suppose we could put Bamm Bamm Rubble in this category as well.

Aw man, I missed it today. Yhr funny Part about mothat he remembered
iles being adopted was that he was Three years old then, and he's three now, Haha. That might be continunity, but so much for logic.

Daffyfan said everything I was going to say. Another great episode with lots of continuity for once! Whoever wrote these last two episodes needs to be brought in whenever they write episodes referencing past events. He/she has really got it down. (And also gives Big Bird plenty of lines for once!)

Speaking of good lines, there was plenty today. You're never to young to learn the alphabet, he's definitely a triangle lover, Big Bird stopping to answer Elmo's questions when Luis and Gordon are carrying a crib...ect .(About time they showed that always asking questions can get old.) Kinda hard to talk about these episodes when there's so much good stuff to talk about!

They're also really going at it with the new music. What do you wanna bet we'll get more new music tomorrow? Hopefully they'll put all these on CD.

We also got another new letter of the day with Cookie. He's now resorted to sneaking into Prairie Dawn's bedroom to get her! I think she should invest in an alarm system...but she did have a great line; "Is there an audience in my bedroom?"

Ernie's new song was great, but it'd be nice if we got a regular Bert and Ernie segment. We didn't get one at all Monday, and just the song today. Maybe tomorrow we'll get something.

Assuming we'll be 3 for 3 with good episodes tomorrow, I'll definitely be buying this on DVD. (I think it's safe to assume they'll combine the street stories and put them on DVD.)

Just a head's up. It's airing again next week for anyone who missed it. So, agian, be on the look out for that everybody.

Oh thank goodness! I've already missed the first two parts.

Yeah. It seems like most E&B segments they play these days are new ones or repeats from last season. (Like today's about the pigeon toes) We haven't really seen too much of Henson's Ernie this year. But I guess we can't complain about that too much since most earlier E&B sketches are already on You Tube.

Anyway, about today's ep. Well, I didn't think the street story was too exciting. Just my opinion on that. But actually I was more interested in "Outrageous Makeover." Grover/Fat Blue moments are always the best. Plus, I figured out why he keeps coming back to the restaurant. With Grover even coming to his house to annoy him. I guess he figures, if he's going to get it anyway, he might as well get it over with. Lol. A little joke there.

Fat Blue: I'm sorry I got angry.

There's a line we never thought we'd hear him say. I liked the reaction with him crying at the end. I'm glad he's finding other ways to deal with his frusteration rather than passing out all the time. Lol.

I also like that they're doing new stuff with Trash Gordon. The other day was the worm sleep over. Then today they had Slimey's baby sister sloppy hear the story. Seems like the book is pretty popular with the worm population. Lol.

I love today's episode! Did anybody see Kevin Clash standing by Gina at the beginning coming to see marco, haha!

Suffy and Big Bird were great thinking of ways to play with marco and Imagining that they were babies, LOL!

Loved Outrageous Makeover. Love when they put that door sideways above the other door. Griver was so funny sreaming "isn't it Outrageous!!!", LOL! nd then at the end when fat blue told them to put everything the was is was and get out, they took away all the door's and sense Grover couldn't get out, he said that he and the crue had to spend the night and got in his chair with him. Fat Blue got so upset and all Gorver could ask is"Do you have a Hot tub?"LOL! And he said sonthing else that doesn't come to mind right now, too.

Bear, you're just in luck because their showing the first two parts next week. It starts on wensday.

That was Kevin? He went by so fast I couldn't tell. I almost thought it was Gordon. Does anybody know who the older guy was?

Yeah. That's lucky for me too. (If I don't have to work or be anywhere else at the time) Anyway, I accidentally read a few spoilers here about the episode that was on Monday that I missed. Hopefully, I'll get to see that ep and know what everyone's talking about. Lol.

After they leave, you can here Gina saying "Buy Kevin!" LOL!

I am ELATED! That stupid Baby with the pancake on her head forced laughing... that was rough and annoying. Plus I don't like how a diaper company sponsers it. it makes it feel more like SS is nothing more than a Baby show. (I also think McD's hypocritical ads are stupid... but I'm convinced the Bald Scientist character figure is somehow a refference to Bunsen Honeydew). But now it seems like there are more ads, and less show.

I would like to say, other than the main street story, nothing has been of too much interrest in the monday and tuesday eps. Veg Side story was fun, but in one episode we had no Ernie segment, and in the other, no Global Grover. I SURE hope they aren't trying to do away with that one. That one's great.

Anyway, I LOVED the Outrageous Makeover home Addition (BTW, Count... Addition is spelled like the numerative property, not the word edition... in case no one said so yet). Grover and Fat Blue once again. This was the best parody I've seen all year, right up their with Scramalot and Law and Order. Not to mention, 2 new Grover/Fat Blue skits this year. Amazing.

Saw Gina's kid

Kermit: So Gina's adopted son Marco is from abroad
Dr. Teeth: I thought all kids came from broads
Kermit: No I mean abroad as in from another country
Fozzie: You mean she adopted a cow
Kermit: No she adopted a baby from Guatemala
Everyone: Whatawhola???
Kermit: Never mind.

Saw the second ep in the Gina's new baby series today, liked it, sorry I didn't get to comment on it till now, but this whole month has been kind of hectic, tutoring and sub teaching have been picking up. Phone is ringing off hook. Johnathan has been keeping me busy making bottles, plus he started on solid food last week. Also Megan has been sick for the past two days. I missed most of the first ep yesterday Megan had a Clifford video on. Saw the beginning of the new Elmo's World "Fast and Slow" Thought it was an interesting topic, but I had to get to work on a lesson plan.

Finally got to see atleast one of the Marco episodes today. It was Part 2 when Gina finally arrives and everyone wants to help. I thought it was great! Two awesome new songs in the street story. Gina actually has a better singing voice than I remember. I was excited that Bert appeared with the others. Kinda would have made more sense for Ernie to have the line with Rubber Duckie but oh well. Atleast Bert called "Thanks, Ernie!" We got to see Oscar's gentler side again as he seemed very excited about the arrival of Marco too. So many characters in the street story today. More than normal and all equally active. Even the adults. Big Bird, Elmo, Telly, Oscar, Baby Bear, Cookie Monster, Grover, Rosita and Bert in the Muppets group, and Gina, Maria, Luis, Gordon, Alan and Bob in the adults group.
Aside from Gabby and Miles, Susan was the only grownup not to appear once again. This is really starting to concern me. Have you noticed that they no longer list the cast alphabetically in the end credits? They always used to list the cast alphabetically (with Alison Bartlett-O'Reilly towards the top and Roscoe Orman at the bottom). Now it's all mixed up with Sonia Manzano at the very top and Loretta Long at the bottom with only Gabby and Miles listed below her. Is this a new billing system? It kinda looks like it seeing as though Susan never appears anymore but is strangely always mentioned (like today when Gordon referenced the adoption of Miles).

Other things I liked in this episode:
The new song with Ernie. It was fun and silly. Also fun to see him joined by Grover, Bert, Elmo and Honker.
The song sung by Herry. Nice to have him featured somewhat.


Trash Gordon is getting old and boring....

I thought that was Frank. I have to keep the sound low to avoid having my mom hear. (That's also how I missed Gina saying "Bye, Kevin.") Anyway, the little I heard did sound like Frank. He also voiced Grover in the Russian restaurant sketch. I guess they still want him around from Grover/Fat Blue scenes. After all, I guess they want to go with Grover's original voice for classics like those.

What song was this? I missed it. Was it something old or new?

Actually, Herry wasn't actually seen. It was one of those films with a song that Herry voiced-over. It was never officially said that Herry is the one singing, but it was definitely Jerry Nelson's Herry voice. So really it is just my own assumption. Not sure how new or old it is. I've never seen it before. He was singing about mothers and babies basically.

Oh. I think I know what you mean now. But actually, I thought that was Telly. I'll have to listen again.

Well Herry was in part one, but he didn't say anything, though.

Trust me. It was Herry's voice.
