So cute! I might cry and giggle uncontrollably. And by might, I mean I already did. This is Kevin Clash. He’s the man behind Elmo. You can see him in this clip, and yet, you can’t. Once I see Elmo, all signs of the man that brings him to life are thrown to the wind. [...]

This one will be a quickie. Promise. Remember seafood Brian from Top Chef? He was easy on the eyes and constantly reminded everyone that fish was his thing? His wife had twins! Bigger news? He named the girl twin Sailor. Classy or Trashy? You can make the call on that one. The Best Week Ever [...]
My Neck Hurts From Whipping My Hair So Much

This clip from Sesame Street is adorable, highly necessary, and great for kids to see. I definitely could’ve used it when I was a small black kid surrounded by white friends with pretty, “smooth” hair. I always wanted to brush it. Their hair seemed to never go out of place. While the one above would’ve [...]

I’m on an American Idol high right now. I won’t spoil it, but let’s just say history was made tonight, and I am thankful. This show keeps finding ways to keep me coming back. Some ways are easier on the eyes than others. Let’s get to it! Will Ferrell is going to hang out with [...]

I’m back from Florida. It’s hard to come back from vacation but I’m amped to come back on a Wednesday. Let the updates begin. I’m watching the end of this week’s L Word right now. Great ep. Anyway, the ladies are getting their very own brand of lipstick. Looks like that whole, How I Met [...]
Muppets + Christmas = Perfection

It’s Christmas Eve! Booya. Bored? The new Muppet Christmas Special, A Muppets Christmas: Letters To Santa is surprisingly funny considering the intended audience has a hard time coloring in the lines. Lots of celebs make an appearance including Whoopi Goldberg, Nathan Lane, Jane Krakowski and Jesse L. Martin. Does anyone else confuse Muppets with characters [...]

They Don’t Make ‘Em Like They Used To

Take a look at this very old footage from Sesame Street featuring Richard Pryor going over the alphabet. He reminds me of a teacher who’s just one page ahead in the book. Every new letter seems like a little surprise. I also like the short story he tells while announcing all the letters. Up until [...]

The Children’s Television Workshop has done it again. Sesame Street continues to entertain another generation and their parents with catchy pop ditties turned educational. Here’s Feist and a bunch of monsters, penguins and chickens teaching us how to count to four.
