My 12 year old son has been working on perfecting his Count impression, and will likely be crushed by this news.

78 wonderful years of singing, entertaining, charming, and educating the fraggle out of three generations of children, ah! ah! ah!

Others who love the Count may feel differently, but I thought this was one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

I remember a time when my biggest dilemma was "Sesame Street" or "Pinwheel" on the then-fledgling Nickelodeon. More often than not, it was "Sesame Street", and I admit, The Count played a large part in that decision. Condolences to Jerry Nelson's family.

I count myself lucky to have enjoyed him in childhood & beyond.

I'm glad my two-year-old isn't old enought to realize the loss. Truly a sad day for countless (no pun intended) fans and friends of Sesame Street.
