Sesame Street - Desperate Houseplants

Hahaha, I was watching Sesame Street today with my daughter, and when this came up I started to laugh my bum off. I love Sesame Street! I came on here so that I can show her daddy it when he gets home!

No GenXorcist1976, when I said "parodied an abortion like this" I didn't mean they were parodying an abortion, I mean that they were parodying an awful show. I mean the same thing as if I said "parodied a horrible show like this". Let me re-emphasize that they weren't, obviously, parodying abortion, and I did not get that interpretation and complain about it, I'm just mad they parodied a show that has so little intellectual value. Sorry, I should've been more clear. I don't even know where the

How is watering a plant parodying an abortion????? I'm lost....
