| rdfs:comment | - "It's Hip to Be a Square" is an animated song sketch first seen on Sesame Street in 1989, spoofing "Hip to Be Square" by Huey Lewis and the News. The short features a band of colored squares with stick-figure limbs against black-and-white, photographed backgrounds. Cut-outs and direct cel-drawings were utilized. The lead singer (voiced by Paul Jacobs) sings about his differences from other shapes, but they still get along.
