Apparently there in an online petition sitting around in the Internet ether collecting support for the televising of the same sex marriage of the two confirmed bachelors Ernie and Bert from Sesame Street.
Campaigners say the best friends should marry as a way to encourage tolerance of gay people.
Nearly 7,000 have signed the petition, with more than 3,000 joining a Bert and Ernie Get Married Facebook page.
Producers from the programme have been rather dignified in their response to all this and have stated simply
"They remain puppets and do not have a sexual orientation."
I would have written just a two word answer!
In BIG letters
"THEY'RE PUPPETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
