[edit] "Diehard fans" comment

I don't know much about diehard fans of Sesame Street (although, like the rest of my generation, I was practically raised by Mr. Hooper). Is it really NPOV to say, as the article does at the moment, "Many diehard fans linked his death to the start of a constant shrinkage of the irreverence that originally helped Sesame Street's popularity"? Is this a widespread or notable opinion? Can we provide a source for it? If not, maybe it ought to go. —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 21:21, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

This really should be sourced. And if there was a noticeable decline in the show's irreverence around that time, why wouldn't "diehard fans" link it to Jim Henson's death? Eric.d.dixon 07:22, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
I've removed the sentence; if anyone can find a source supporting it, feel free to reinsert. —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 07:26, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
