Grover couldn't blow out six measly birthday candles?! Big Bird could blow out 548 birthday candles at once! (according to the Count) But Big Bird's got bigger lungs than Grover anyway...
@Shadowhawk28 it was a joke about the movie The 400 Blows. However to also make it funny for kids they were suggesting they'd show him doing the mundane task of blowing on candles 360 times.
The sketch seems to present Grover's birthday because you can hear the monsters singing "Happy Birthday" to Grover. Grover made his wish to do 400 blows, however he got 40/400 and then fainted. I don't think you guys would try to do that many blows, wouldn't you think?
Previous Goof: I don't think I can do 400 blows all at the same time in one attempt, however I could probably do the same by predicting the amount of blows part by part for which user: dorourke105, posted when he predicted they would be seen on Part 2 through 10. I would pretty much take a 5 minute break after each part and then continue on the next and it will be 400. It's much better than doing 400 Blows at the same time in one attempt rather than getting dizzy and fainting.
Obviously, you've not watched Sesame Street lately. No more jokes, very little humor that appeals to adults any more. Way Way too politically correct...
The show's been trying to be politically correct since the 1970s. They had that animated segment with that Native American boy explaining that "Indians don't talk like that!", but I think they went WAY overboard now
@dorourke105: My thoughts exactly--and at the end of Part 10, the scene would shift to Count von Count's TV room, where he gives his trademark laugh and remarks: "I hope they start '20,000 Leagues Under the Sea' next week!" :-)

@wewacian Still it would have been nice to see the rest of Grover doing that silly task.

I agree that it sucks now (it's called Sesame "Park", isn't it?) But I dunno what you mean by "politically correct"...
