Daytime Emmys Sesame Street Tribute 8/30/09

[FragglevisionReturns]

I love how Sandra Oh described her first meeting with Big Bird - "like that moment in Ratatouille where the critic eats the ratatouille..." it would be like that for me if I ever met a Muppet.

[kittycat5498]

all thanks to jim henson

[DimeraFan28]

@RadioLaPrincess, I have to agree with you, Because I too remember watching Sesame Street when I was Younger, This show has taught my all about, Numbers, Letters, and also about Friendship. and I hope that I'll show this show to my two nieces when they are older., and I also hope that the Next Generaition would watch this show, just as the generaition did before them.

[RadioLaPrincess]

I am 40 and watching this clip brought tears to my eyes. This is such an amazing show and I am thrilled I was able to watch it as a child. I have a genius IQ and firmly believe this show is part of the reason why, along with having parents who read to me. I hope this show lasts forever and that my future kids and grandkids can enjoy it.

[laminage]

@RadioLaPrincess I know what you mean. I was Three when the Show debuted and like so many people I remember watching it. So many people have visited The Street not to be confused with The UK Soap Opera Coronation St. : - D. I live in Canada and while the US Version had segments in English & Spanish, we had ours in English & French. This is the Show that every Kid's show of Today's Generation should be lucky to be compared to.

[panthrosmoke]

i totally agee with u DIMERAFAN28

[DimeraFan28]

May The Next Generaiton (Including my nieces) Enjoy This Wonderful Show, As The Present Generaiton Has Before Them.

[KidComedyOfficial]

Gotta love Steve Whitmire's Dr. Feel voice at 4:01!

[DimeraFan28]

Ok, I'm Talking Off-Topic Here That Has Nothing To Do With Sesame Street, So Has Anyone Heard That The Macho Man Randy Savage Died In A Car Crash?.

[DimeraFan28]

Who's That Lady In The Black Dress Beside Ellen Degeneres At 06:21?.

[DimeraFan28]

I Still Hope The 2011's Daytime Emmy's Is Way Better Then 2010's.

[russia687]

This is absolutely one of the most wonderful and adorable clips available on YouTube.

[DimeraFan28]

I Still Hope The 2011's Daytime Emmy's would be better then the 2010 one.

[DimeraFan28]

I Hope The 2011's Daytime Emmy's would be better then the 2010 one.

[DimeraFan28]

"but if they're baking cookies, me tune in", lol, omg, lamo.

[fairycristela]

@DimeraFan28 Cookie Monster is the best!

[btez31]

Sesame Street - The Best Children's show ever!!!!!!!!!

[DimeraFan28]

Happy Halloween Everyone.

[DimeraFan28]

Long Live Sesame Street.

[cherrypizza]

Seriously, quit with the cutaways to Bindi Irwin.

[DimeraFan28]

@cherrypizza, I wish they had Sesame Street In Alstrallia For her, her brother, and all the other children too.

[cherrypizza]

@DimeraFan28 Errrr... we DO have Sesame Street in Australia. It's aired here since about 1973.

[DimeraFan28]

@cherrypizza, Oopps, I'm sorry, My Mistake.

[ZNKChannel]

N offence, but what do the numbers 9 & 11 have to do with this?

[soxmonki]

Yep ... Sesame Street is unsurpassed. I remember growing up with the show ... then sat with my nephews and nieces watching it. And when I am home sick ... sometimes my remote stops on Public TV ... even to this day. :)

[bengorillaz]

sesame street is the best childrens program in the world

[DimeraFan28]

Ok, I Jusr Want To Say That The 2010's Daytime Emmy's Was Boring, They Didn't Even Introduce Any Of The Cast Of Their Respective Soap Operas, Didn't Even Have A Tribute To Francios Reid (r.i.p), Didn't even Present outstanding children's series, programming, villian/villianess, and I didn't even see, Drew Carey, Howie Mandel, Pat Sajak, Wayne Brady, And I Didn't Even See Joe Mascolo Or Anyone From Days Of Our Lives, All They Showed Was James Scott. What Is Uo With That?.

[DimeraFan28]

I Hope The 2011's Daytime Emmy's Is Way Better Then The 2010's.

[bengorillaz]

another emmy bites the dust

[DimeraFan28]

@bengorillaz, I just want to say that the 2010's daytime emmy's was boring, for a couple of reasons, reason number 1, they didn't introduced each soap opera, reason number 2, they didn't even have a tribute to the late, great, francios reid (r.i.p), reason number 3, didn't see my fave soap opera star joe mascolo, and the number 3 reason is, didn't see, Alex Trebek, Montell Williams, Drew Carey, or even Howie Mandel, or even Bini Irwin, what's up with that?.

[DimeraFan28]

I think Vanessa Williams looks so beautiful in that dress.

[DimeraFan28]

I Still Think That The 2010 Daytime Emmus Was So Boring, They Didn't Even Show The Whole Cast Of Dool, All They Showed Was James Scott (EJ Dimera), And Also They Didn't Have A Tribute To Francios Reid (r.i.p), and They Didn't Even Have A Daytime Emmy For, "Oustanding Children's Show, Outstanding Children's Series, Or Even, Outstanding Villian, and Outstanding Villianess, Now Can Someone Tell Me What Is Up With That?.

[Aerisizded]

5:00 a celebrity lower left takes a picture. Proves that they are star struck. Awesomeness

[DimeraFan28]

Ok, I'm going have to make an emmy complaint, the 2010's daytime emmy's was a real drag, they didn't even present a daytime emmy for, "outstanding children's series, outstanding children's programming, outstanding villian, outstanding villianess", and all they showed was James Scott (EJ Dimera, Dool), and They Didn't even show the rest of the dool cast. and they didn't even show a tribute to francios reid (r.i.p), What is up with that?.

[DimeraFan28]

At Least The Cast and Muppets Of Sesame Street Are Way Good To Listen Too, Then Chubby Checker.

[654zns]

The only children's show in history that deserves this award. Nothing else will ever compare with Sesame Street. What kids see in Dora and Diego I will never figure out.

[DimeraFan28]

At Lease Sesame Street Great To Listen Too Then Chubby Checkers.

[ackgh73994]

At 6:45, Bob looks like he's going to start a fight with Elmo. He just looks like he's saying hey Red let's fight!

[DimeraFan28]

in case anyone missed it.........(clears throat)..........Sesame Street is brought to you today by the Letter E (for a lot of Emmys) and The Number 40.

Happy 40th Aniversary Sesame Street.

And Many More To Come.

[DimeraFan28]

I wonder if Vanessa Williams went to Michael Jackson's (r.i.p) Furneal?.

[StefanoFan27]

My hope For Sesame Street is that it will carry on it's work, my friend just had identcle twin girls, and I hope that they'll enjoy watching this wonderful show.

[whenmonkeysattack16]

BRAVO!

[shanmer391]

The girl who plays Abby Cadabby, Leslie Cerrara Rudolph, looks like a princess in that dress shes wearing!

[ZNKChannel]

& if Ernie & Bert were there, they might say this after Cookie says "That taste even better than Latin Grammy!":

(Rubber Duckie squeaking fastly) Bert: Ernie, could you stop that with the Duckie? Ernie: It's not me, ol' Buddy Bert. Rubber Duckie's tellin' me somethin'. (squeaks Rubber Duckie)

[ZNKChannel]

Ooooohhh! I see! Rubber Duckie says "Sesame Street has been brought to you tonight by... " Big Bird (holds up red A): The letter A for "Anniversary"! &... Abby (holds up purple E): The letter E for Emmys! Cast: & by the number 40! (audience cheers & claps loudly) Bob: Sesame Street has been productions of... Ernie & Bert (holding original Children's Television Workshop sign): The Children's Television Workshop! Telly: The Jim Henson Company! Elmo: & Sesame Workshop!

[StefanoFan27]

@ZNKChannel, cool.

[StefanoFan27]

i'm no fashion critic, but that is one ugly purpleist dress that sandra ho has on.

[ZNKChannel]

Yes... I dunno why it came up again. Strefan0Fan27 keeps putting up his/her "Sesame Street is brought to you by the letter E & by the number 40" comment a lot of times.

[StefanoFan27]

@ZNKChannel, i'm sorry, i was just joking.

[StefanoFan27]

Oh, In Case Anyone Forgot............(clears throat).

Sesame Street Is Brought To You This Morning By The Letter E (for emmys),

And The Number 40.

Happy 40 Years Sesame Street.

And many more to come.

[StefanoFan27]

man, I hope i'll see the 2010 daytime emmy's on tv soon.

[StefanoFan27]

that would be so funny if bert said, "if the object was to spin the wheel", then ernie would say, "then rubber ducky would squeak "no deal", and he'll (ernie) would squeak his rubber ducky, and bert would say, "ho boy". that would be so funny.

[StefanoFan27]

in case anyone forgot.........(clears throat, takes a deep breath)......Sesame Street is brought to you today by the letter E (for lifetime achievment emmy) and the number 40.

Happy 40 years sesame street.

and many more to come.

[StefanoFan27]

wouldn't it be awesome if vince mcmahon hired kermit the frog as guest host of "raw"?.

[batfan903]

I wish that they had more muppets like Bert, Ernie, Harry and Kermit plus more of the humans (past and present): Susan, Gina, Miles, Mr. Handford, Ruthie, Linda and Gabi!!! That would have been greatt!!

[StefanoFan27]

oh i would have to agree with you, i wonder what that would be like?.

[batfan903]

I think it would have been great to introduce them as the Cast of Sesame Street [Past and Present]...It would show the audience how much the show has grown in the years it has been on TV [Some of us watched Gabi, Tarah and Miles grow up on the show!]-In addition to all the Muppets and humans-I forgot to add the Count and Prairie Dawn; Plus Savion!!!!

[StefanoFan27]

didn't you already made a post?. Oh and btw, i've been a fan of sesame street ever since i was 3-years-old, living on a farm in canton, south dakota, and i've watched shows [past and present] like this one, shining time station, reading rainbow, star lore, is-land treasure, once upon a time, storylords, square one tv, zoobliee zoo, and also where in the world is carmen sandiego, and even newton's apple too.

[StefanoFan27]

@batfan903, i would have to agree with you, and kermit is my favorite muppet, i think he's so cute. he could hop on my lillypad anytime, j/k.

[StefanoFan27]

unbelievable.

[StefanoFan27]

man, i wish they showed sesame street in alstrail (i hope i spelled that word right).

for all the kids, including bindi irwin and her brother to watch.

[StefanoFan27]

would'nt it be something if vince mcmahon would have either vanessa williams or the cast of sesame street to be guest-hosts of "raw"?.

[StefanoFan27]

wow, I still remember when i was young, and living on a farm in canton, south dakota, i remember sitting on the floor in front of the tv, and i would watch this show.

[StefanoFan27]

wow, these highlights are so cool.

[StefanoFan27]

That Is An Ugly Dress That Lady has on.

[StefanoFan27]

Wow, I Remember when I was young, Living at the farm in Canton, South Dakota, I remember sitting on the floor and just watched This Show, Also I Remember Watching M.R.Neighborhood (r.i.p), C.K. (r.i.p), The Letter People, ZooblieeZoo, Storylords, Shining Time Station, Star Lore, I-sland Treasure (still looking for clips of those two), Man I Wish those Shows Were Still On The Air.

[8182570]

Happy 40th to my dear friends of Sesame street who i've watched with much joy as a child! Heck I don't mind flipping channels in the morning now and then and watching it with my cousins lol

[misseslynch]

This just makes me smile. I grew up watching this show and my daughters now watch it. It is fantastic that they gave them the lifetime achievement award they deserve it. Long live Sesame Street!!!

[StefanoFan27]

Me Too, and I'll Have To Agree With You Because I Too Grew-up Watching SS, It's Also One Of My Favorite Shows, Along With, Mister Roger's Neighborhood (r.i.p), Captain Kangaroo (rip), I-sland Treasure, Star Lore, Storylords, The Letter People, And Squre One TV.

[ZNKChannel]

Snuffy couldn't be there because Marty P. Robinson was doing Telly. & no need to stress yourself saying Snuffy's whole name.

[StefanoFan27]

D'Oh.

[hsuehhs]

But Isn't Big Bird and Oscar played by same guy?

[MMfan365]

oscar is being played by caroll spinney, but big bird is being played by matt vogel (his understudy)

[TherealRNO]

@hsuehhs: Normally, yes. But Matt Vogel is Carrol Spinney's future replacement, so he's taking the helm for him when Big Bird & Oscar the Grouch need to be seen simultaneously.

[StefanoFan27]

I hope I'll See Sesame Street At This Year's Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade?. And I wonder If Any Daytime Stars, Or Talk Show Or Game Show Hosts Would Be There Too?.

[Wheeloffortunefan999]

i can only assume that sesame street will be there.)

[Wheeloffortunefan999]

i agree, sesame street has given our children a lifetime of educational television.) (and sadly it's really the only good kid's show left)

[StefanoFan27]

@Wheeloffortunefan999, I'll have to agree with you, because I grew-up Watching SS, and also Mister Roger's Neighborhood (r.i.p), and Captain Kangaroo (r.i.p to the old Skool one), and Also, The Letter People, StoryLords, And Once Upon A Time, I-Sland Treasure, And Star Lore (still looking for any clips of these two old shows).

[Wheeloffortunefan999]

i remember watching destiny's child's appearance, (i'm 21, but the day it aired i turned it on by accident, and they were on, in my opinion, they butchered it.) (they were all WAY off key.)

[Wheeloffortunefan999]

correct me if i'm wrong, but the clip they showed of whoopi goldberg in the highlights, is not the only guest appearance she's had on the show.

[ZNKChannel]

I think if Ernie & Bert were in there, they'd it would be like this: Bert: If the object is to spin the wheel... Ernie: Rubber Duckie's gonna squeak no deal! (throaty cackle, squeaks Rubber Duckie) Bert: Ho, boy.

[StefanoFan27]

lol, omg, Or maybe If Big Bird's Best Friend Snuffy (i don't know how to spell the whole name). was there too.

[StefanoFan27]

lol, I would love to see that happen, But as the old saying goes, "Only A Girl Can Dream".

[StefanoFan27]

@ZNKChannel, that would be so funny.

[ZNKChannel]

(like Drake from Drake & Josh): Yeah...

[StefanoFan27]

@ZNKChannel, did'nt you already post this?.

[StefanoFan27]

@ZNKChannel, lol, omg.

[DimeraFan28]

@ZNKChannel, lol, omg, lamo, Oh btw i hoped that you remembered 9/11, oh another btw, where were you when that tragedy happened?.

[DimeraFan28]

@ZNKChannel, that would be awesome if they were there, but as the old saying goes, "Only A Girl Can Dream". Oh Btw I'm Talking Off Topic, Please Remember The Tragedy Of The Space Shuttle Challenger on Jan, 28th, 1986.

[ZNKChannel]

Do you guys think at they should've had Steve Witmire & Jacob Jobanson as Ernie & Bert would be good in here? They've been their since the start. Right?

[RabbitDance]

Hey it was Oz as cookie! LOVE YOU COOKIE MONSTER!!!!!

[RabbitDance]

I spoke to soon. It looked like it might be him from far away. Well, anyway, congrats Sesame!

[hairsprayman111]

The best Sesame Street tribute if there ever was one!

[ROBO916]

This was great. But where was Kermit the frog and burt and Ernie???

[hairsprayman111]

Kermit has not been on the show in years. Not since the Muppets were sold to Disney. Idk where bert and ernie were...

[dancechick86]

lol cookie had to eat the award!

[genbairen]

WOW 40 YEARS OF SESAME STREET!!!

I can not believe it.

That's... WONDERFUL.

Congratulations!

=)

[PurpleNightButterfly]

clearly the BEST childrens television program EVER made...never to be equaled or matched..it stands heads and shoulders above all the crap we got today...showing violence is today a trademark...

Sesame street was about learning, giving confidence and showing good family values of love, compassion, friendship and loving people for who they are no mather what they look like

[tpirman1982]

Congrats, Sesame Street on 40 years on television!

[lenzino7383]

WOW, Sesame Street been around 4 generations! That's crazy!

[Iamdanielg]

[kunstkammer]

This make me SO happy every time I watch it.

[1236w31236w3]

[TheRazmereShow]

cookie PERSON?

[DDELE7]

I hope in the future, assuming they have a 40th Anniversary special on PBS that the marvelous Muppeteers who bring life to Sesame Street are given their due. Including Jim Henson.

[RabbitDance]

yeah, they did not mention him. ;_;

[williamjaykerr]

where was Gorover? he was always my favorite!

[hsuehhs]

Frank Oz is Gorover and cookie monster Since cookie monster Gorover  could not be there.

[StefanoFan27]

cool.

[PRNeneChulo]

Cookie Monster CRACKS me UP , that taste better than latin grammy, LOL

[PRNeneChulo]

WOW, what an ugly dress Sandra is wearing!

[blueeyedreamer]

Thanks for the memories Sesame Street. This brought a smile to my face and a few tears to my eyes. I hope to share Sesame Street with children for years to come.

[Philosophyuser]

That was too sweet. I cried a lot. Thank you Sesame Street for the memories.

[jimbim121]

I wonder how they did Oscar, because Carroll Spinney does Oscar and Big Bird and he can only do one at a time.

[hairsprayman111]

Caroll Spinney did Oscar, and his double performed Big Bird that night. Caroll said hat was the plan all along

[12Medbe]

Matt Vogel probably did Big Bird.

[hairsprayman111]

probably

[jimbim121]

That was great. I hope that Seasame Street Stays around forever, and I think it will! :D

[cmforevea92]

[Nightworks]

[skuttohsev]

watching this now and last night almost brings tears to my eyes as i've grown up with sesame street! it is one of those shows that will never lose its popularity and is one of the few all around good shows left for children! i hope to continue to watch sesame street with my 2 new baby cousins and with all the kids in my future! congratulations on this honor sesame street!

[masteractor]

Wow, don't thank Jim Henson... Or any of the Original Muppet Creators and Performers.

[soap1991]

ya your right they should have mentioned JIM HENSON

[Toonylune]

"Where dis guy come from?"

[crystalfairie]

I'm not sure if Ellen is unimpressed or unamused... Anyway, I'm glad I got to grow up with Sesame Street. <3 it!

[iheartdonuts]

wow everyone watching looks so happy...look at Ellen she looks like she's gonna cry...amazing :) ...I'm so glad I got to grow up watching sesame street

[hairsprayman111]

I grew up with Sesame Street and am now great friends with Caroll Sprinney, Big Bird and Oscar (shown here), and I love this video! I love when the curtain goes up and you can see the silhouette of everyone, but the only one that you can really depict is BB's and everyone stands up and claps... I feel so blessed that this was a part of my life

[TomCollinsgirl]

ill be honest. one of my biggest dreams is to be on sesame street. i grew up with it, like everyone else. and i think they have held up Jim's vision quite well

[OvariesOfSteel]

Sandra Oh = me when it comes to teh awesomeness that is Sesame Street. My mini me and I both loved this tribute. Thanks for posting!

[BlueMonkeyHeads]

OH COOKIE MONSTER. NEVER CHANGE. XD

[yangohfan]

Ahh Sandra Oh lovely as usualy x

[triptriptriplestripe]

I love that Elmo is a big black man, so incongruous with the voice!!!
