The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for June 21, 2018

Don’t let the kids see this!

When the taxidermist asked him if he wanted Kermit and Miss Piggy mounted he said, “No, just holding hands.”

Gonzo?? NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

He had to pull some strings to hunt on sesame street. I see he got cookie monster too, Did he use chocolate chip for bait?

They look so natural.

How much does a Big Bird ………………………. ?

According to Wikipedia, the inspiration for adults not seeing Snuffy was a 60 Minutes program on pedophilia at a Bronx daycare center. Sort of takes the humor out of the cartoon’s punchline.

Adults never saw the Snuffleupagus at the beginning. He would walk away and then Big Bird would describe him. Then, the creators decided that this approach sent a bad message to children and Snuffy met the adults.

And as a bonus, Kermit’s legs were the best he’d ever had.

Stalked that big yellow one for three days. Cagey, he was.

I thought George Snuffleuppagus was a commentator on ABC News…

just imagine he’s there

I find this disturbing on so many levels.

Show him the emperors new clothing that you paid big $$$ for at auction!

Gee, the things you learn by watching TV, and reading these comics. A friend of mine had a dog named Snuffleupagus but I never knew where that name came from. I guess I leapfrogged over the Sesame Street era.

The best part was they came pre stuffed.

This is pretty mild compared to what would happen if HBO made Sesame Street more like their typical shows. (Seriously though, kudos to HBO for basically funding the show and letting PBS still broadcast the eps for free, if I understand the deal correctly – basically there’s just a token exclusive period or some such.)
