Well, it was bound to happen, and thus it did. My daughter has taken interest in Sesame Street. I don’t care how organic or modern tech-free a lifestyle you try to raise your kids in, once yours starts getting mad, you would consider A Clockwork Orange in the background if it works. Here’s what I’ve noticed.
– One episode I watched had both Lena Headey and Peter Dinklage. I got excited because I thought for sure they’d engineer a violent death for Murray. Turns out they beheaded Elmo. OH I’M DONE WITH THIS SHOW, HE WAS MY FAVORITE. Sorry, I went into angry Game of Thrones “I’m done with this show every other week as I post spoilers on Facebook and ruin everyone’s night.”
– Oscar the Grouch is just the best. He called Abby the fairy a sparkleface and told her to mind her own business, then told her his goal was to make everyone angry with an ugly art display. He reminds me of Donald Trump, but more human. Way more human.
– Everyone here is really happy. Then I noticed the adults don’t know how to understand basic concepts. Example: One lady couldn’t squeeze mustard out of a squeeze bottle. It was too tough. This just proves my age old theory that the dumber you are, the happier you are. Why worry about things, stuff is shiny!
In fairness, this show’s not that bad. I’m finally learning the alphabet and it’s not Yo Gabba Gabba. Now if someone can tell me how to get my daughter to take interest in World War II documentaries and Van Damme movies, I’m going to be one happy dad. R is for roundhouse kick! 4! Van Damme has four slow motion yells after he kicks a guy in the face and flexes!
