Sesame Street is brought to you today by the letters F-I-R-E-D.
Three beloved human characters from the 45-year-old childrens show have been given the Sesame Sweep. Bob the music teacher, Gordon the science teacher and Luis the Mr. Fix-It, played by Bob McGrath, Roscoe Orman and Emilio Delgado respectively, have all been axed.
They let all of the original cast members go, with the exception of Alan Muraoka who is probably 20 years younger than the rest of us and Chris Knowings, who is also young, McGrath, 84, said at a Florida Supercon Q&A on July 2.

Joe Biden doesn’t think they should be fired. Or that anyone should be fired. I mean, if incompetent boobs got fired, how would you ever become vice president?
Nah.
Just say they were supporting Trump, and they were sent away to get their mind right.
Bob McGrath sang with the Mitch Miller gang on the old Sing Along with Mitch show. Wow, that was a long time ago.
Seseme Street has gone leftist..guess this means more homo characters getting into the tub with Bert and Ernie
I think they created a muslim in a burka character.
Sesame Street has always been PC . Now they will go way left .
I don’t watch family guy but that was funny.
I’m old, I grew up with Captain Kangaroo.
...ping....
Roscoe Orman
Emilio Delgado
Betcha cash money you're right!
That's too bad they axed these beloved *original* characters. Wow, I can't believe Bob McGrath is 84 now. Time flies...
SS is commie propaganda for children.
That I was fed a steady diet of their crap for years and still came out Paleo-Con is amazing. /s
They are kicking out men. Pure and simple as that.
And sales of licensed toys. they get a decent share.
I’m way behind the times, what does the Q stand for in LGBTQ ? I doubt it’s the Q word we used to use when on the H S playground.
Sounds like age discrimination.
Ummm...pretty sure it is...
I think it stands for “Questioning”. Or people who are uncertain or experimenting. Basically they are adding as many letters as they possibly can to inflate their numbers.
I imagine once they run out of letters they will include punctuation marks.
