Saw this in today's paper and laughed. (If you haven't heard, in the '70s when I was watching the show, Snufflupagus was Big Bird's friend for years that nobody else could see. His imaginary friend. Then in more current times, everybody somehow can see him. WTH?? The studio probably didn't want to encourage keeping friends "secret" anymore. Possibly to do with childhood abuse, but who really knows. So what was a fun secret is now "everybody knows no big deal"... The cartoon is appropriate to our board though! hehe....
