It’s season 42 of Sesame Street come Sept. 26 (check your local
listings), and the guest list could not be hotter. Among those on tap:
Oscar winners Nicole Kidman and Robin Williams; up-and-coming actresses
Emma Stone, Mila Kunis, and Amy Adams; Modern Family‘s Sofia Vergara,
Jesse Tyler Ferguson, and Rico Rodriguez; Community’s Joel McHale and
Ken Jeong; The Office’s John Krasinski; late night hosts Craig Ferguson,
Jimmy Kimmel, and Conan O’Brien; musicians Elvis Costello and Bruno
Mars; The Daily Show’s Samantha Bee and Jason Jones; The Big Bang
Theory’s Johnny Galecki; funny guys Seth Rogen and Andy Samberg; Tony
winner Sutton Foster; New Orleans Saints Quarterback Drew Brees; the New
York Knicks’ Amar’e Stoudemire and Carmelo Anthony; and Supreme Court
Justice Sonia Sotomayor. How’s that for variety?
Which guest appearance are you most psyched for? McHale, according to
the caption on this photo, at some point, “demonstrates the word
‘prickly’ with the help of his cactus, pineapple and porcupine pals.”
Yes, they look very friendly in this picture. I cannot wait. Sadly, we
have no idea what Ferguson is demonstrating in the shot below of him
with three chickens, but we love it. We’ve also got a surprisingly
dignified portrait of Jeong with Elmo for you as well.
