I just recently started watching Sesame Street with my son and I forgot how great it was. Especially the old stuff, which is all up at sesamestreet.org (I can't vouch for the new stuff as I'm at work at 10am.) The jokes were good, the music was good, the voice acting was good (who was the guy that used to do Kermit and Ernie?) We'll both sit there and watch for an hour and neither of us will get bored. All other children's programming on tv today is so vapid by comparison. Don't let your kid watch it if you can't stand it yourself.
