Grover and Jimmy

Sesame Street season 36 is almost here! As many of you may know (or may not know; or may have known, but forgot) Sesame Street will kick off its 36th season this Monday (April 4) on PBS. So be sure to tune in this Monday and checkout the new season of fun on the street. (Check local listings for time and details). More information on the new season’s features can be found at SesameWorkshop.org

To celebrate the new season Sesame Workshop will be sending a blue and furry representative to promote the show and the new season. Grover, the fun and furry monster from Sesame Street, will be a guest on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" on Monday night to promote the new season of Sesame Street. "Jimmy Kimmel Live" is shown on ABC at 12:05am (so technically it is really early Tuesday morning).

Along with checking out the new season earlier that day, be sure to tune in to ABC to see Grover and Jimmy chatting and having fun. This should be a fun television appearance by Grover (helmed by Muppeteer Eric Jacobson). Muppet fans may remember the appearances of Kermit the Frog on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" in 2003. Hopefully Grover will be able to delight the audience and provide a fun segment for fans to enjoy. You don’t want to miss this appearance – so say up late, tune in, and watch (or at least set your VCRs and check it out in the morning).

Note: Although today is April Fools day this news post is not a joke. The news reported today is real and is not an elaborate prank set up by myself, Sesame Workshop, Jimmy Kimmel, or ABC. As many of you know, I lost my sense of humor in a horrible accident at rubber-chicken factory many years ago. I also lost my wallet in the same accident; if you happen to find either please let me know.
