  • Ernie and Bert are based on The Odd Couple.

    Bert's the straight man to Ernie's jokes. I think that's all Henson intended. I doubt they were trying to make a "Gay's are OK" statement like how our modern sociuety wants to portray this innocent kid's show.

    Anyway, how many colledge age guys room together because of their currcumstances? This can't mean that everyone that has to room with someone of the same sex is automatically gay, does it?

    I hate the world of "today".

  • Ernie and Bert are NOT gay. Lol. Wikipedia said so.

  • @shockydynamite Yes, they're just friends, roommates like Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon in the Odd Couple movies

  • The room is dark because Ernie is feeling sad.

  • @madcapromanian they could also be based on Martin and Lewis and all those great comedy acts..I dont know why people think they are gay..that issue never came up in the 70's some people now a days have nothing better to do than be a smart ass ..they're puppets for god sakes..

  • @edwthompson313 It's to tell kids what they can do if they miss someone, it's a kid's show and kids can often feel that way

  • He remembers all the things he did with Bert

  • @madcapromanian: But even if they were gay, would it matter? They're still the same lovable duo they've always been, regardless. I mean, seriously, most books, puzzles, games, & other products have shown Elmo/Zoe despite their being 3-4 years old & those same products have--despite claims to the contrary between Sesame Workshop itself & by their performers--shown Bert as a princess to Ernie as a prince, so whatever floats one's boat, since really the learning is what matters.

  • This is really sweet.

    Kinda reminds me of me when I go to cons without my biffle.

    I loves her. She's the Bert to my Ernie. <3

  • @MrTornado300 he misses his best friend.... harsh :(

  • This made me cried a lot when I was little! I feel very bad for Ernie! :(

  • @cinnabonne lol, funny. Very insightful. :D
