I never watched RR because it was really, really slow paced.

I think that may be why I didn't watch it either.

 

One of my fave SS episodes: Dancing Spanish Grover as a waiter.

sesame street scared me :stunned:

:lol: :lol:

It scared you?

 

I guess snuffleupagus scared me a little..

i've never liked birds and the sheer idea of a huge yellow bird following children around frightened the beejeezus outa me :o

I was a Sesame Street luva too :D And my favorite were Prairie Dawn and Guy Smiley (the cool game show host) :P
