These throwback parodies further the shortening of the distance between generations, giving parents and children something to look back on and interests they have in common. The parody really shows just how amazing the puppet design on Sesame Street really is. The Sally puppet captures the complete essence of Meg Ryan in that same role. In this lesson, however, there is also exposure to a fabulous romantic comedy from the '80s. When Harry Met Cookie takes Cookie Monster and Sally to the infamous deli where Cookie Monster learns a lesson in waiting his turn. Not only is Sesame Street bringing modern adult television and film to children and their parents in an entertaining and educating way, but they are also providing a new generation with references to the classics. Sesame Street parodies are a trademark of the show where they reimagine television in movies. But that’s the magic of a Sesame Street parody.

It seems especially strange when the parody happens 26 years after the movie comes out. Including a parody of When Harry Met Sally in Sesame Street may seem strange for children’s television.

What is so great about this parody is that even if you don’t have kids and there is no excuse to be watching Sesame Street, if you like Downton Abbey you’ll love this parody. In Upside Downton Abbey, The Dowager Countess and her butler must overcome losing all their food because of being upside down by figuring out they need to be (you guessed it) right side up. This parody didn’t really make fun of Downton Abbey, it mostly just put the characters viewers love from Downton Abbey who would never be seen doing anything even the slightest bit improper in the silliest of situations. Here is a list of the top five best Sesame Street parodies.ĭownton Abbey became a world-wide phenomenon back in 2010, and Sesame Street did not waste any time hopping on the bandwagon of expressing love for the show.
From Downton Abbey to Game of Thrones, anything is fair game for Cookie Monster to show up in a parody version teaching a lesson about sharing.

Part of the way they have achieved these goals is by making modern references.
This creative way of teaching is a huge part of what makes Sesame Street so special and holds up after all these years.Īiring for the first time in 1969, Sesame Street has always had the mission of talking up to children and creating programming that made children feel like they were the focus of conversation, not an accessory to it.
