> I had that book! I remember I loved it, because it seemed so cross-dimensional. The whole book is Grover trying to prevent you from reading the book. He'd board up a page, pour cement in front of it, whatever, just so you wouldn't get to the monster at the end. Very post-modern. Or something.

I've never run into anyone else who'd even heard of that book (well, I didn't ask everyone I met about it). It figures that RinkWorks would be the place I would. :-) I LOVED that book. My grandparents had a copy, and one of the highlights of any visit to them when I was little was reading it. Grover was also my favorite character. Sadly, I don't remember enough of Sesame Street to identify more than a few sketches.

Actually, they do. There's a kids' channel called Noggin in the US that I'm pretty sure is countrywide, but you'll need cable or satellite to get it, I think. Well, I do. Anyway, at 11pm my time (PST) they show an hour of _Sesame Street Unpaved_. The description my satellite provider gives for it is that it's the favorite sketches of the cast. (Maybe the favorite episodes. Each one does seem to be a whole episode.) I don't know if it's on every day or not.
