I watched a lot of PBS growing up. Mister Roger’s Neighborhood, 3-2-1 Contact, and of course Sesame Street.

For the most part, I loved Sesame Street. Grover, Big Bird, even Oscar the Grouch were entertaining and interesting.

Unfortunately, there was always one skit that scared the crap outta me: those blue and pink Sesame Street aliens.

Their wacky mouth movements, voices, and special effects would force me to turn away.

But now thanks to the popularity of YouTube, I can watch those little bits with no fear at all. Quite funny to see them in this new light, even if they are still a bit scary.

Yip yip yip yip uh huh…
