Sesame Street. He got so he could identify the characters by their voices and his favorite was Cookie Monster. He always stared at the screen when CM was on. All of the characters in this show were great.

years since I've seen Sesame Street but I remembered all the human character names like they were old friends. Luis, Gordon, Susan, Bob, Maria, David.... I recently watched the Sesame Street 50th Anniversary Speciallon HBO. It was great to see so many of the original cast members.
