I've reached 41, born the year Sesame Street began, and never once thought they were anything but child aged characters. So are these people now saying not only should they gay marry (because they think they are gay) but that we should watch children gay marry on public TV?

Personally, I liked Oscar the grouch much better. He was always my favorite. And didn't Sesame Street take place or was/is filmed in Pittsburgh? Sorry, no gay marriage for muppet childhood characters!

Have any Heterosexual muppets got married? I know Miss Piggy used to chase Kermit, but I don't think that was on Sesame Street and that was a whole inter-species thing— the logical next step after gay marriage??!!

Mr. Rogers was filmed here in Pittsburgh, Sesame Street was always filmed in New York City. I just turned 45 so I remember when it first started. As to Burt and Ernie, to me, they were just two guys living together because they were best friends and to cut down the cost of living. Nothing more, nothing less. It is a shame that sex has to enter into this at all. BTW, Oscar was my favorite too.
