One day I’ll start the day without writing a post in gushing praise of John Oliver or Last Week Tonight, and everyone will suddenly be sad. Oliver has teamed up with Sesame Street and Mashable to promote Words Are Here, There And Everywhere, an initiative to encourage kids to explore literacy and the Wonderful World of Words, by hosting a word-themed news segment called W-ORD News with co-anchor The Cookie Monster. It is fucking adorable.

There are also out-takes. They’re incredible.
