Who Can Turn The World On With Her Marketably Pink, Sparkly Smile? -- Daddy Types

For some reason, I just got a Google Alert on this blog entry from August 2006. Who Can Turn The World On With Her Marketably Pink, Sparkly Smile? -- Daddy Types




Call me crazy, but I take a perverse pleasure in being dissed by complete strangers on the web!






For the record, I stand by my decision to create a mainstream, "lead" muppet to whom little girls can relate. The gender inequity on Sesame Street was appalling and always bugged me when Jules was little. Why were all the girls quirky, politically correct, un-relatable sidekicks, and never the hero? I think we've put that problem definitively to rest with Abby Cadabby. She's a star (thank you brilliant puppeteer Leslie Carrera!), and I'm so proud to have been involved in her creation.

If you Google my name you'll find more hilarious ones.....like How to get to Stereotype Street in the Boston Globe.

If I'm controversial enough to get all these folks fired up, I must be doing something right!
