    zOMG!!11! And I though it was just TellyTubbies that got cancelled because of artistic differences between the Lesbian Laa Laa, the Gay Tinky Winky, Dipsy the TV and the Po the Paedophile Kid.

    lol @ Andy Pandy.

    It is a well known fact that 105% of kids TV writers...are all degenerate drug addicts whose sexual proclivities tend to be at the outre end of the scale.

    @Orfeu: Where do I apply to become a Kids TV writer?

    Pep (has some interesting ideas that Linden Lab won't let him write about.)

    Heh, I posted the thing about Bert & Ernie on my RL blog several days ago. Amazing, huh?

    I didn't follow your links so just in case this isn't in them, if you want to sign the original petition to force B&E into a gay union with or without their puppet consent, go here: http://www.change.org/petitions/let-bert-ernie-get-married-on-sesame-street#signatures

    If you want to see the official Sesame Street producers' reply: http://www.facebook.com/note.php?created&&note_id=10150290119497855&id=13759741267

    Presumably Piers Morgan will not now be interviewing Bert & Ernie.

    Pep (thinks they probably have more gravitas than Rosie O'Donnell's sister.)
