In case you missed the colorful 50th Anniversary Special that aired last night on PBS, here is the link. I loved every minute, especially seeing the members of the original cast, like "Bob," "Susan," "Linda," and even Caroll Spinney (the puppeteer for Big Bird and Oscar,) as well as the artwork of some of the original bits. The special brought back such wonderful memories of the iconic program intended for children, but enjoyed by all ages.

Happy 50th Anniversary Sesame Street! Check out the celebration featuring host Joseph Gordon-Levitt and classic Sesame Street songs sung by some of today’s most beloved celebrities.
