Even as a 5 year old growing up in early 70’s, there was something I really disliked about Sesame Street. I just couldn’t put my finger on it. Too preachy? Too soft? Too politically-correct? Too BORING!

Nope ---- too gay.
Too psychedelic.
It scared the hell outta me.
I,also, watched Sesame Street in the early 70’s.
However, once I entered kindergarten, became a latch key kid and had free access to the TV without adult supervision, I discovered the world of TV reruns,especially the one with James West and Artemus Gordon who could never tame that evil dwarf.
It is good to know that there was one other young person in the 70s besides myself that didn’t like Sesame Street.
“Too politically-correct?”
Definitely that one; I’ve never seen a ghetto with so many children walking around without fear as I saw on Sesame Street...
