Sesame Street: Surprising the British

[RSLindsay]

Notice they avoid using the F-word ("fight") and the B-word ("battle"). It's "Sesame Street," after all.

HILARIOUS. Love you talking about America stupidity when you've spelled countries incorrectly. You US haters are so funny. You talk smack about us but you sure do find the time to watch our programming. LOL!!!

I am using this for an AP History class as part of my presentation! This is an innovative way to have my classmates keep their attention! I <3 this!

Except, ya know, Washington and his band of regulars went to Trenton to surprise the GERMAN mercenaries employed by the British.

"What a smart general-type-person-thing you are!"

Only Grover could get away with saying such a thing to Washington :P

[oragensaftbanane]

so cute :P love grover he's so ....... lol funny

[mwermuthland]

Considering that these "American Revolution" sketches heavily featured established characters as our founding fathers, it's a shame that George Washington was just an anything muppet. He could have been played by Kermit or Guy Smiley.

[Pooleman96]

Kermit probably would've worked well, especially with his frazzled-chemistry regarding Grover!

[cosmowanda868]

@mwermuthland Contrary to your belief, I believe that Washington was played by Guy Smiley, with makeup and wig, for a variety of reasons, including same performer and AM style, and a few quick bits of Smiley-esque enthusiasm, albeit rather sedate for Smiley standards. Oh, and don't forget: Smiley sang in that tone for "I'll Love You in Springtime" and the "Letter of the Day" song, even speaking in said tone during the latter.

[Pooleman96]

Grover's WAY funny in this skit! And we thought Kermit and Mr. Johnson(aka "Fat Blue") were the ones who were annoyed by him the most, looks like our first president didn't think too highly of him either LOL!!!

[mwermuthland]

@Pooleman96 I didn't think George Washington was annoyed by Grover.

[SmokingNtheGraveyard]

George Washington sounds alot like John Kerry.
