New Sesame Street Features Ray, Fey, Spoof of Grey's
Sesame Street's Abby Cadabby by Rich Termine/PBS
Season 38 of
Sesame Street, premiering Aug. 13, will feature a curriculum focusing on early literacy and language skills, PBS announced on Monday. The new batch will also feature Abby Cadabby in all 26 episodes (sounds like someone got a new agent), and kick off each episode with a "Word on the Street," which will be defined throughout the hour. There'll be occasional assists from the likes of
Ellen DeGeneres and
Jon Stewart.
Speaking of famous human faces, guests for the coming season include
Tina Fey,
Rachael Ray,
James Blunt and several New York Jets. Pop-culture spoofs include "Meal or No Meal," "American I," "A's Anatomy" and "GNN" with
Anderson Cooper and grouch coanchors Walter Cranky and Dan Rather-Not. OK, that last bit just made me giggle.
