Allusions:

  • This segment parodies TV's Sesame Street.
  • There was a similar sketch on MADtv where Big Bird also got the bird flu that might have inspired this sketch.

Trivia / Info:

  • Seth Green has guest-starred on Sesame Street.

Goofs / Nitpicks:

  • Sesame Street is shown as having a "Word of the day" (Quarantine), though it only actually has a "Letter" and "Number of the day". However, Sesame Street now has a segment called "What's the Word on the Street?", which in a way is similar to "Word of the day".
  • Snuffleupagus is portrayed as an imaginary friend of Big Bird, when, in fact, he's actually a real character on the show and was only thought to be imaginary during his first few appearances.
