Bert said the F-word ('Sesame Street' Wednesday)

This ranks right up there with the time Mister Rogers extended his middle finger!

You may remember this 'Sesame Street' segment, which is one of many where Ernie wakes up Bert over something stupid...



In that skit, Ernie wakes up in the middle of the night, whips out his typewriter, places it on Bert's bed, and writes a poem.

But listen closely at 10 seconds into the clip. In fact, you really don't need to listen that closely, because it's unmistakable. Bert declares, "Fuck!"

I remember in one of the segments where Bert and Ernie go to a movie theater, Bert gets in a big argument with other patrons at the end. The F-word seemed to be tossed around there too, but it wasn't quite as obvious.
