Sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't. He's always there with some gadget or electronic that would help even his smallest problem. Doug's next door neighbor who's nothing but nice to Doug and is like a second father to him. I was watching some Doug episodes on my DVR and just remembering just how likable Mr. Totally agree.īut back to adult characters in kids shows. It's like what Jim said from time to time on how Television is such an influence in our culture and networks need to be more careful on what they are putting out there. And I'd love to see some shows that inspire adults to have an inner child no matter what anyone says and that's sort of what I do in my art work personally. I'm always in my mind "UGH! I don't want to be like that!".
PLAY WITH ME SESAME ERNIE SAYS FOOD FULL
I've used wifi in a fast food donut like shop and there's adults who to me seem so boring, not full of energy, complaining about politics and their lives, it's depressing to see that. But just seeing adults older then me in a coffee shop or just grocery shoping and it's so sad rarely seeing a friendly face. Even going onto 25, I still feel like a kid. I can certainly say that I'm a strong supporter of adults to have that inner child within them. Though personally I'd pick the kid at heart characters because it's so inspiring to look up too and even for adults. They want either kid characters or characters who are kid at heart. I've read the Nickelodeon pitch Submission guidelines once either for pitching to the network or their Nicktoons Film Festival they used to have when they looked for new talent. There's something for everyone there but something about mainstream entertainment business has changed dramatically but I won't get too much into that. You know, it's kind of like when characters are written in ways that represent a certain kind of people, like take Rob from Get Fuzzy, for example: it's clear he's written to represent the everyman (mediocre job, unsuccessful at romance, having to put up with the craziness of others around him, etc), not necessarily for people to identify with, just to represent those kinds of people.Ĭlick to expand.Totally agree, I grew up with Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network and there's so many great shows and lovable characters which I can still enjoy as an adult. in this case, characters like Elmo and Zoe are given ages like 3, 3 1/2, and such, to represent younger kids who still have a lot to learn, yet are very playful and imaginative, whereas certain characters like Big Bird are given ages like 6 to represent older kids who are just a little wiser and therefore are the kind of kids that the youngens might like to hang out with and look up to. So are there times when characters change ages depending on the situation or plot?īut I didn't mean to say that certain characters are given ages so kids watching can identify with them (though, that does play a factor), I mean that certain characters are given ages to REPRESENT a certain age bracket.
PLAY WITH ME SESAME ERNIE SAYS FOOD FREE
Sure Ernie has a toy chest but I always felt Ernie was a free spirit and most of that stuff was full of mix disguise kits and practicle jokes. The idea of characters who are adult Muppets saying "when I grow up" and not "what would I like to be someday", it's a little awkward. Telly I'm guessing developed more into a character who's about 6 years old or a little older and Zoe is about the same as Elmo. The other main characters are kid ages like Big Bird is 6, Elmo is 3, and I've heard Abby is like 2 or something like that. Johnson so Grover clearly has a job (probably to get his Super Grover cape dried clean, who knows lol).
There's a sketch of his mother is putting him to bed then there's the resistant sketches with Mr. What I find weird about this is well aren't Ernie, Bert, The Count, Oscar and Cookie Monster adults? Grover is hard to tell.
I was just reading this on Muppet Wiki, this Sesame Street Live show where the plot is the characters trying to figure out what they want to be when they grow up.
