  • Sneak Peek Previews
rdfs:comment
  • Sneak Peek Previews was a Sesame Street segment in which Oscar the Grouch and Telly Monster sat in a movie theater and reviewed films (usually actual segments from Sesame Street). Telly gave the films a number of "wows" while Oscar gave them "phooeys." Telly would usually end up sitting in a broken chair, causing him to spill his popcorn all over the place. The segment was inspired by the television show Sneak Previews hosted by Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert. On that show, Siskel and Ebert reviewed movies and gave them "thumbs up" or "thumbs down" ratings.
