Sesame Street Rumors.

Sign in to disble this ad
OK so Ive heard the following rumors regarding sesame street:

1.Burt and Ernie got married to promote the idea of gay couples is OK.

and

2.Cookie Monster is now Veggie Monster.

Please somebody confirm that this is not true, especially #2. Cookie Monster is the man, and the original death metal song is C is for Cookie.

I'm not sure about the gay thing (Bert and Erny have been rumored to be gay since as long as I can remember), but the cookie/veggie thing is kind of true:

http://www.snopes.com/radiotv/tv/veggie.asp

He's still the cookie monster, but he tries to eat healthier now. Didn't he used to eat garbage as well? I'm pretty sure he once ate Oscar's trash can.

The other rumor I've heard is that Sesame Street DVDs come with a warning that the older episodes do not reflect the current values of Sesame Street (with regards to eating, etc).

The context would be someone in the college cafeteria told me. No I dont still watch the show, if I did I wouldnt have to ask these questions. Sometimes I watch the old clips on youtube, like when cookie monster tries to call santa claus but he gets hungry and eats the telephone. ITS SO FUNNY! When I was young I watched it like all the time.


This is pretty funny too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gT_gx...eature=related

Cookie Monster is the original TV stoner. He'd eat cookies, phones, garbage, whatever it took to cure his munchies. I can relate.

C is for carrot.

Let's just hope it's not Bert and Ernie's carrots.
