[CONTAINS SPOILERS]

Super Grover got his own animated special, so did another popular Sesame Street character. No, it's not Elmo! It's Big Bird. The real star of the show. It's the dead of winter on Sesame Street and Big Bird is sick of it. He can't fly his kite or play in the sand box. Oscar, however, loved it. Big Bird had to do something, so he bought some flowers so remind him of spring. But as he payed visits to all his friends: The Count, Grover, Ernie, Bert, Dolores, even Oscar the Grouch, he distributes the flowers and soon is left with none at all. But spring comes very soon afterwards. You'll notice that when Big Bird meets up with Ernie, he doesn't speak. How come? I guess Jim Henson didn't participate in these

specials. Yeah, these are based on when Sesame Street was good! Over the years they changed it into this...Kind of...New show. Why? What was wrong with the old one? I wish they would release the old Sesame Streets to video. They do with old episodes of All in the Family and M*A*S*H, why not Sesame Street or Mister Rogers? But anyway, if you liked the old Sesame Street and are not up on the new one, then I recommend this animated short.
