This is pretty much why Sesame Street is still going, they have a sense of humor that appeals to everyone

all I can say is muppets rock.

[Mr. Analog]

Pew! Pew-pew!

Holy Carp, 43 seasons?

And that's just Sesame Street, his muppets had their genesis in the 50s! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_and_Friends

Surprising hey!

Should probably go watch http://beingelmo.com/ on netflix, it is really interesting... Also of note it is interesting how elmo became the prime character of the Sesame street.

To be fair without Jim, Kermit wasn't really the same I think it was a good move

Though tickle-me is still all kinds of creepy

Tickle-Me Elmo is only creepy when he's on fire while vibrating and laughing.

Scary doesn't even begin to describe it

I guess my feeling of creepy is different than yours.  I see Tickle Me Elmo as a harmless toy aimed at young kids that like to action-reaction and will sit there and push the same button on a game remote over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and giggle the whole time.

No I'm talking about that on-fire one.

It's like the cell phone in the microwave: Scary as Hell
