“Opened his mind and nurtured his soul”?! Playing a giant politically correct bird who’s on the government dole for 50 years!? So is his retirement an EBT card, no limits, secrion

I watched uncounted hours of this show with my son back in the 80's. So much that I even started dreaming about it and started to wish I could live there. I'm sure it's gone downhill since then but it was great stuff at the time and a real bonding thing with my son and I. Plus, they knew that part of their audience was adults and made a point to aim some of the humor at us.
Now, Barney the Dinosaur, on the other hand...

Does that mean that Big Bird is no longer a Scientologist?

That suit looks like it must be heavy as hell. Impressed that he can still walk around in it at 84.
