They just go overboard. I certainly never thought that I could eat cookies all day because a blue puppet did.

I think part of the point of early Sesame Street was that a parent COULD watch it with their child and not hate it. Even if the 3 year old didn't understand who "Alistair Cookie" is, they could enjoy it on the level of a big funny blue monster and the parents would be entertained by the pop culture references and the puns.

But SS now....yeech, if I had a child and had to watch that Elmo ridden dreck, I'd throw up. Elmo is almost as loathsome as Scrappy Doo and that's saying a HELL of a lot.
