in case anyone was wondering:
apparrently the original seasame street is not suited for kids?
and let me just tell you why. apprently, cookie monster doesn't have a good diet? because he eats only cookies.. because he's a... cookie monster. also, oscar the grouch is too.. grouchy. and only big bird can see snuffleupagus. which is offensive, somehow, and innappropriate for little kids. and i guess it shows kids getting milk from cows? now, you might not think that's bad. but maybe you're not realizing that this milk has been taken STRAIGHT FROM THE COW!!! no homoginization! yikes?
here's a chunk of the article:
"Nothing in the children’s entertainment of today, candy-colored animation hopped up on computer tricks, can prepare young or old for this frightening glimpse of simpler times. Back then - as on the very first episode, which aired on PBS Nov. 10, 1969 - a pretty, lonely girl like Sally might find herself befriended by an older male stranger who held her hand and took her home. Granted, Gordon just wanted Sally to meet his wife and have some milk and cookies, but . . . well, he could have wanted anything. As it was, he fed her milk and cookies. The milk looks dangerously whole.
Live-action cows also charge the 1969 screen - cows eating common grass, not grain improved with hormones. Cows are milked by plain old farmers, who use their unsanitary hands and fill one bucket at a time. Elsewhere, two brothers risk concussion while whaling on each other with allergenic feather pillows."
yeah, that's right. not only did they bring the farmer's unsanitary hands to light, they also hit you the ALLERGENIC FEATHER PILLOWS! that shit is just plain logic!! you can't show that junk to KIDS! ARE YOU CRAZY?!
the entire point of this thing is that i hate this entire world.
