| 6 International Sesame Street Tribute Logos from Google Posted: 10 Nov 2009 05:33 AM PST Christine already talked about how Google is making its tribute to Sesame Street’s 40th anniversary. However, Google didn’t stop at Big Bird. Instead, they created logos for the characters found in international versions of the show. Here’s a collection of the entire world-wide Sesame Street tribute:
An illustration of the cast of Sesame Street (USA) This is probably the picture you get when you think about Sesame Street (minus the Google logo in the middle, haha).
Abelardo Montoya – Mexico’s very own Big Bird. He appeared in Plaza Se’samo. Kami – South Africa had its own HIV positive character on the show Takalni Sesame (Be Happy Sesame). Announced in 2002, Kami is an orphaned muppet girl with HIV and the sniffles. The character’s name derives from the word Kamogelo, which means acceptance. Leniemienie – Netherlands and Belgium had a cute little six-year-old mouse on Sesamstraatwho started out as a simple mouse looking for cheese. When female emancipation fires died down, she became more child like. Boombah and Chamki – India’s stars on Gali Gali Sim Sim, Boombah is a vegetarian lion who loves to dance and Chamki is an inquisitive schoolgirl who loves to learn. Chamki knows karate. Abigail – Israel’s own Elmo, Abigail stars on Rechov Sumsum where she interacts with Israeli celebrities and speaks about herself in the third person. I didn’t even know these characters existed until I saw the logos up on Google! It just goes to show how far spread this amazing show really is.
