10. Richard Pryor
What he’s teaching: The alphabet, pure and simple. Or as pure and simple as a whacked-out Pryor truly can. “Ain’t nobody interested in D! “’Cos E’s got it all covered!”
What we actually learnt: Pryor at the time didn’t seem to have much range when it came to describing letters. “X had it covered!” Presumably he doesn’t mean Malcolm… It’s sheer madcap brilliance, which probably sent several kids into therapy.

The sexual tension between Marisa Tomei and Big Bird is palpable! Hilarity!

I know there will be a lot of people arguing about what you missed, but how could you miss the entire episode with R2-D2 and C3PO? That was a long time ago, but it's still the movie star cameo by which I measure all others.

Obviously Richard Pryor DID care about C because it's pretty aparent that he was all Coked up atr the time. Check out the eyes and body movements. I'd say he was probable halfway through his 2nd gram when he filmed this gem.

Funny that DeNiro's guest spot on SS is better than his last 5 movies.

I know she's not as famous as these other people, but I just love it when Feist appeared on Sesame Street. (She's a Canadian pop musician.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fciD_II7NI She's so damn cute.

She's not as well know, but Feist (Canadian pop star) was on Sesame Street singing her "1, 2, 3, 4" song. Soooo cute.
