A Sesame Bonus on Law & Order DVD

Universal Home Entertainment is planning the DVD release of "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit - The 6th Year". The box set of the New York City crime drama will be released on April 1, 2008 and aside from the 23 episodes the set will include a fun Muppety extra. The set is said to include the 4-minute Sesame Street sketch "Law and Order: Special Letters Unit" as a bonus feature.

Produced for Sesame Street's 37th season, the sketch features an alphabet parody staring a group of Muppets. Detectives Meloni, Mariska, and Munch search for a missing letter "M." As they investigate, they find many things that start with the letter "M" (such as a cow named Murray that makes Moo sounds, a mallard, and much more).

Now it probably isn't sensible to buy this set just for one small supplement, however if you're already an SVU fan it'll be a wonderful bonus in your collection (plus it gives a different audience some exposure to Sesame Street's more current work).

The Sesame Street podcast Word on the Street has featured almost all of the Law and Order: CSI cast.

I think you mean the "Law and Order: SVU cast" not the "Law and Order: CSI cast". "CSI" is a whole other franchise of crime dramas and has nothing to do with the "Law and Order" series.

Brad is right. Sorry about that. I shouldn't let myself post with the flu.
