Thanks for the concern.
I do, however, feel that cartoons and childrens programming today are somewhat worthless for educational purposes. They take old fairytales and change them in such a way that the original meanings and morals are lost. I prefer the old shows. I think kids don't have to be kept in a bubble.

I'm surprised to see Oscar actually care about something.

@MondoBeno I don't think you can really say a show "jumped the shark" if it continued on for another 20+ years...

Oscar: Hey I'm not gonna B a daddy!!! I'm Oscar the grouch not Oscar the daddy!!!!
LOL

"I'm not the daddy type!" HA HA!!! Oh Oscar!...but in a way he was a daddy...to Slimey, his pet worm and Fluffy his elephant.

I don't remember Sesame Street being like this at all. I was born in '88 hmm maybe they weren't like this in the 90s.

Wait what, Oscar has a car?? Where the eff does he keep it?
-
What is Oscar doing in a hospital? Wouldn't he reek of garbage?

I'm a grouch!
That's okay. Grouches can make good daddies too.
I'm not gonna be a daddy!!
ROFL! LOL!

After the Telly, Susan, Gordon, Miles scene:
Muppets: Two-Headed Monster takes turns reading itself a story
Cartoon: B is for bouncing circles
Film: Close up on animals, kids try to guess what they are
Muppets: Monsterpiece Theatre "The sound of Music"
Film: Fay demonstrates by placing 3 balls on a table
-
After Oscar has a conflict:
Song: I believe in little things
Muppets: Ernie plays the feelings game
Cartoon: Bellhop must bring 8 steamer trunks down 8 floors
Sesame Street started to get silly after Jim Henson died. For instance, they started to "jump the shark" with episodes like this; too coy and over sweetened.
But in the last 15 years it's gotten incredibly infantile. All of these baby-character puppets teach kids to use baby-talk. They used to have short clips where you'd see the inside of a crayon factory, or a post office, or a dentist. Now it's full of overdone crap.
