Bert and Ernie Gay? Sesame Street author claims his comments were misinterpreted

Are they true or not?

For decades we have wondered: Are Bert and Ernie gay? The famous Sesame Street duo live together, share a bedroom, and don't hesitate to take a bath in front of each other, so. ..

gay, said in an interview that he wrote Bert and Ernie as a loving couple, drawing inspiration from his own relationship with his longtime partner.

"When I wrote Bert and Ernie, I always felt like they were gay without a big agenda," said writer Mark Saltzman. in an interview with Queerty, a gay news and entertainment site. I had no other way to contextualize them.

His comments made the rounds on the Internet, causing both outrage and jubilation. They are official!!!!! says one post, which shows smiling Bert and Ernie wearing sparkling wedding rings. But Sesame Workshop, the non-profit organization behind Sesame Street, quickly debunked the idea. saying in a statement that Bert and Ernie are best friends and, being puppets, have no sexual orientation.

Mr. Saltzman, who wrote for Sesame Street in the 1980s and 1990s, now says his comments were misinterpreted.

Best TV of 2021

TV this year offered ingenuity, humor, challenge and hope. Here are some of the highlights chosen by The Times critics:

• • 'Inside': Written and filmed in the same room, Bo Burnham's one-room comedy special, streaming on Netflix, draws attention to internet life in the midst of a pandemic.
  • "Dickinson": In Apple TV+ series is the origin story of a literary superheroine who is very serious about her subject but not serious about herself.
  • Inheritance: In HBO's cutthroat drama about a family of media billionaires, being rich is not what it used to be.
  • The Underground Railroad: A gripping adaptation of Barry Jenkins' novel by Coulson Whitehead is fantastic but totally real.

He said that he and his partner, Arnold Glassman, who died in 2003, were very much like Bert and Ernie, opposites who found a way to love each other. "As a writer, you just bring what you know to your work," he said in a telephone interview Tuesday evening.

Somehow the noise that turned into Bert and Ernie made them gay, he said. There is a difference.

Mr. Saltzman is one of the group of writers who wrote the scripts and songs for all the Sesame Street characters.

He said he did not restrict Bert and Ernie to one sexual orientation or any other. While he believes Sesame Street should include a gay couple in its programming, he said it should be done with human characters, not puppets.

As for Bert and Ernie, they are two guys who love each other, Mr. Saltzman said. That's who they are.

Frank Oz, who helped create Bert and Ernie nearly half a century ago, said on Twitter on Tuesday that the characters were not gay.

His comments provoked opposition from those who shared the importance of representing gays and lesbians on television. One person tweeted that it was good for me to be able to see them as gay, and the more voices I see CONFIRMING that they DEFINITELY ARE NOT, that's what makes me sad.

Later on Tuesday, the Sesame Workshop released a second statement. Sesame Street has always been a symbol of inclusion and acceptance. It is a place where people of all cultures and nationalities are welcome.

Which brings us back to us.

The public debate about Bert and Ernie's sexuality has been going on for decades. The New York Times wrote about it in 1994, wryly asking, "How long have you been preoccupied with the sex lives of marionettes?"

In 2011, an online petition circulated asking Sesame Street to let Bert and Ernie get married. The program reacted then, as it did on Tuesday, stating that the puppets were just puppets and had no sexual orientation.

Sexual orientation or not, Bert and Ernie became a symbol of gay rights when they were featured on the cover of The New Yorker in 2013 after same-sex marriage was legalized by the Supreme Court. It showed two dolls hugging in front of a television, a moment of intimacy to celebrate the historic decision.

We may never know for sure if Bert and Ernie are gay. And maybe it's all right.

According to Saltzman, dolls are an example of love, designed to help preschoolers overcome the challenges of their young lives. The child is going to the first night. A boy in foster care who shares a bedroom with another boy. And yes, a preschooler will learn what it means to have gay parents.

"It's like poetry," he said. That's what you need.

Vlas and Yenik | this... What is Vlas and Yenik?

Bert and Ernie (Vlas and Yenik in Russia) is a duet that appears throughout all seasons of the children's TV show Sesame Street . They form a duet of comedians, parodying various things and occupying one of the main places in the program. The original cast were Frank Oz and Jim Henson, now they are played by Eric Jacobson and Steve Whitmire, but since 2000 Frank Oz has occasionally played the role of Burt.

History of the duo

Bert and Ernie were created by Don Salin. They had a very simple look designed by Jim Henson. According to Frank Oz, Saline also defined their personalities based on their looks: "Ernie was like an orange and Bert was like a banana. Ernie is always plump, and Bert looks very skinny." ^[1]

Initially, Oz voiced Ernie and Henson voiced Bert, but the roles were reversed the day after the audition. According to the memoirs of Sesame Street screenwriter and director John Stone, the relationship between Vlas and Yenik is very similar to the relationship between Oz and Henson. ^[2]

Ernie and Bert were the only Muppets to appear in the Sesame Street pilot, which aired in July 1969. Their brief appearance was only part of the experiment, which was considered successful, and it was decided that in addition to the dolls, human heroes, who were not in the pilot episode, should also appear in the program.

Vlas (Bert)

Bert was originally played by Frank Oz. Since 2001, Eric Jacobson has been approved as Bert's main performer. Bert, though smart, is boring and nerdy. He loves to collect paper clips and bottle caps, cook oatmeal and watch pigeons. In one episode, Bert is reading a book called "The Boring Story" and laughs, "These Boring Stories are really interesting!" In Dirt Sesame Street, Frank Oz says, "I was never satisfied with Burt's character for about a year until I realized... that he was very nerdy, and I could use that disadvantage to my advantage." Bert befriends a pigeon named Bernice, and even created the Act Like a Pigeon dance. Bert is president of the National Association of W Fans. Two of its congresses were shown. Burt has several goldfish, two of which are named Lyle and Talbot (a reference to actor Lyle Talbot). The third goldfish, Talbot's wife is Melissa. Bert has a twin brother - Bart, nephew Brad and aunt Matilda.

Yenik (Ernie)

Ernie was originally performed by Jim Henson. Since 1993, the role of Ernie was taken over by Steve Whitmire (after Henson's death in 1990). Ernie has been known to take a rubber ducky bath and also has trouble trying to learn how to play the saxophone. Ernie's song "Rubber Ducks", in which he sings about his love for toy ducks, reached number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100 in September 1970.

An example of humor

The usual sketch for Vlas and Yenik consists of two parts about how Yenik comes up with a stupid idea, and Vlas calmly tries to dissuade him from it. This usually ends up with Vlas losing his temper and Ernie forgetting his idea. Sometimes Yenik's idea miraculously turns out to be a good one, much to Vlas' dismay.

An example of Bert and Ernie's sketch: a joke about "bananas in their ears": Part 1:

Vlas: "Enik! Hey Enik!

Yenik: "Hi, Vlas!"

Vlas: “Enik, do you know that you have bananas in your ears?”

Yenik: "What?"

Vlas: “I said you have bananas in your ears! This is food, they should be eaten, not put in your ears, Yenik!”

Yenik: "What did you say?"

Vlas: "WILL YOU EVER REMOVE BANANAS FROM YOUR EARS?"

Yenik: “Vlas, speak louder, I can’t hear: I have bananas in my ears!”

Part 2:

Vlas: “Enik…”

Yenik: "Hi, Vlas!"

Vlas: “Do you still have bananas in your ears?”

Yenik: "What?"

Vlas: “I said that you still have bananas in your ears!”

Yenik: “Ah, yes. I know, Vlas.

Vlas: “Do you know? Why are they still in your ears?”

Yenik: "I scare off alligators with them."

Vlas: “What? Alligators? But there are no alligators on Sesame Street!”

Yenik: “You see how well they work!”

Interesting facts

• The age of Vlas and Yenik is a frequent topic of discussion on forums. Nothing has ever been said about this, but many believe that this is an adult duet, since they do not depend on others. Performer as Bert in Show Sesame Street Live , Taylor Morgan said, "I try to think like a six or seven year old because Bert is just that." ^[3]

• In the summer of 2011, the characters of the show, Bert and Ernie, became the heroes of a campaign launched by gay activists. They demanded that Bert and Ernie get married, and at the time of writing, more than 10 thousand people signed the corresponding petition. In this regard, the producers of the show issued a statement that the characters cannot be homosexual, as they "do not have a sexual orientation" ^[4] .
