As Heard On Sesame Street

While I was making Olivia's breakfast this morning, I turned the TV on to PBS. She likes to dance to the music on the children shows and I needed her to do something besides ask me to hold her. Win-win, right? Well, I don't know when is the last time you watched Sesame Street, but I think it's safe to say it's changed a bit in the 25 years since I last tuned in. Here's what I heard:

It's almost time for Abby's Flying Fairy School but first we're gonna drop it like it's hot because it's time to freestyle with... the Letter U!

Let's all shimmy, let's all shake, let's make the sound that The Letter U makes! Everybody say "uh, uh, uh..."


Is it just me, or does anyone else think that PBS puppets who talk like R&B music are a little freaky?
