33. I doubt the the Henson Family will ever allow that to happen.
Were I them I'd ramp things up on an even more progressive track, and if the thug wants to try and bring the hammer down, Sessamee Street can relocate to Network TV, I'm sure any of the big three, or hell even HBO Family would love to have THE #1 Juggernaut children's show of all time in their lineup. They already make a fortune on toy and children's book sales, imagine what they could do in the private sector! There should not, of course, be any ground given on content, or creative freedom. I think Sessame Street has proven beyond any doubt that it has long been the dominant force in children's television for a reason. Commercials, though necissary on Network Television, should be kept to an absolute minimum. HBO on the otherhand wouldn't need to impose this consession, though it's audience might be more limited, I feel subscriptions to HBO family would increase dramatically as a direct result of Sessame Street being added to their morning lineup.

P.S. If this jackass does anything to infringe upon the quality or content of Sessame Street, I firmly believe Jim Henson himself will rise form his grave and slay him.
