Sesame Street and our famous, favourite, etc, etc! :)

Question

It's got too serious today on SpanishDict. But I found out something, that'll cheer us up!

Did you know, that it's Sesame's Street 40th birthday today? Because of this, even google has turned a bit monstruous

---

But, the best surprise is here and here! Well well, who would have thought

Answer 1

Cookie Monster was the only Sesame Street character whose motivation I truly understood.

• haha he is my favorite character - cheeseisyumm Nov 5, 2009

Answer 2

The famous cookie monster song!

C is for cookie, that's good enough for me

"C es para galleta, que es lo suficientemente bueno para mí" - Since cookie in spanish doesn't start with C, I'm not sure how to translate that.. :(

• G es para galleta, que es lo suficientemente bueno para mí...my guess...a little interpretive, though. - webdunce Nov 5, 2009

Well, now we know why Sesame Street promotes Spanish so much.

And, now, for my favorite joke...

I´ve watched sooo much Sesame Street that I can count up to 10 in Spanish...

(I made that one up. True story.)

Answer 5

I can count to 12 if I think of a pinball game. Other than that I am lost.

Answer 6

And who remembers...

'Abierto...' (The lid to a box opens, a kid tries to look in...)

'¡Cerrado!' (The box, apparently with a life of it's own, shuts suddenly. Kid is disappointed.)

'Abierto...' (The lid to the box opens again, kid tries again to look in...)

(Repeat a dozen times.)

• Jejeje :) Haven't seen this one, but I can imagine how funny it was! - Issabela Nov 5, 2009

Answer 9

Recuerdo cuándo James Taylor cantó "Jellyman Kelly". Es un gran canción.

Answer 10

Grover's my favourite. He somehow reminds me of my husband. Even our son, when he first saw Grover, shouted: "Daddy!"

• Oh, dad. Poor Dad. Do they lock you in a shoebox?? - Moe Nov 5, 2009
• No, but they do a whole bunch of nasty things ;)) - Issabela Nov 5, 2009
