Oh no – Big Bird’s nest has been destroyed by a hurricane! Luckily, the rest of Sesame Street will band together to help out their friend – and give some much-needed comfort to real-life humans suffering from similar afflictions.
That’s right: Sesame Street is airing a hurricane special this Friday. Read all about it! (No Muppets were harmed in the making of this episode.)
Last year, Elmo and Cookie Monster stopped by EW’s offices to perform their versions of some popular TV shows. This year, Elmo was too busy working on Elmo: The Musical – but Grover and Cookie Monster (a.k.a. the Blue Brothers) had enough wiggle room in their schedules to come around and sing a few musical numbers of their own, parodying the likes of The Hunger Games, The Avengers, Doctor Who, and even The Newsroom. Watch the video here.
A bummer of an ending to a real bummer of a story.
Starting Monday, Feb. 21, Sesame Street will be celebrating “Super Grover 2.0 Week,” featuring a daily segment with everybody’s favorite furry blue superhero. (His powers: the ability to observe, investigate, question, and report phenomena to help kids solve problems.) Click through to watch an exclusive sneak peek of the special Super Grover 2.0 “movie” that debuts on sesamestreet.org next week.
B is for Book and (this is a) BEAUTIFULLY ADORABLE VIDEO.
Elmo and Cookie Monster made the trip from Sesame Street to the EW offices to tell us about their new season (which starts next Monday), and we couldn’t have been more excited had it been Johnny Depp sword-fighting with a time-traveling Theodore Roosevelt. In honor of their upcoming slate of guest stars, the two of them took us through their interpretations of some of TV’s biggest shows — including The Big Bang Theory, CSI: Miami, and The Office (which, coincidentally, name-checked Sesame Street in its premiere last night) – and we have to say, Cookie Monster would actually make a pretty good replacement for Michael Scott.
As part of a new campaign called Sesame Street and Autism: See Amazing in All Children, the long-running children’s show introduced a Julia, a girl living with autism, in an online storybook. In the book, Elmo teaches Abby about Julia and autism. This story is just one part of the Sesame Street initiative to fight autism stigma.
