I have always hated Sesame Street, right from it’s beginnings in the late 60s, early 70s. This is when I was a “liberal”, a leftist, and I still hated it. There is so much wrong with Sesame Street that it would take a long dissertation to cover it all.

I agree there is something fundamentally wrong with Sesame Street.

hear, hear! i agree... my sons never watched Sesame Street... actually they never watched any of the PBS programming... before i became a mother, i sort of assumed they would watch Sesame Street and the other PBS showss... however, once i became a mom, i realized i had full control over what my babies were exposed to, and no--we did not have to do what just about everybody else does...

i find Sesame Street to be artificial--in everything it teaches... from social thinking to social skills--to basic academics like letter sounds and counting numbers... so frankly, i don't really care what happens on Sesame Street, even though my tax dollars help support it... i feel the same about government schools since we don't use them...

I didn't like it because it was on the same time as the Price is Right. "A new car!"
