This used to be one of the best family and kids learning programmes that ever existed on Channel 4. It contained something for everyone: puppets, numbers, letters, comedy, people and much more. Adults watch it because of the wonderful Muppet puppetry from Jim Henson's people at The Children's Television Workshop. Kids liked it for the same reason, but also there were parts to help them learn stuff, e.g. counting, the alphabet, problems and much more. The Muppets that appeared in the show were both funny and lovable to kids and adults the same. Kermit the Frog made his first TV appearance as a reporter, Bert and Ernie living together was just classic small comedy, Big Bird was friendly and helpful to everyone, Grover was wonderful with that voice, Oscar the trash can monster was always good for a giggle, Elmo was wonderfully loved by everyone, Van Count was creepy but fun, Cookie Monster was just brilliant at eating anything and presenting a small presentation show, there were just loads. I wouldn't just recommend this to kids, this is for all the family. It was number 32 on The 100 Greatest Kids' TV Shows. Very good!
