Wonder what role @shirazi would apply for? Count Chocula? Bart?... :)
I know, I know...Oscar: The Grouch! :)
Interestingly, if someone would say "Sesame Street is West's conspiracy...", I am sure our friends would label that "a conspiracy theory"! :D
Wasn't seaseme street already in Pakistan under the banner of khul ja simsim?
I personally don't mind it!!
Kids should have more variety of choices, Sangeen Khan, Raymond Davis, Rehman Malik, Maulana Diesel, Zardari, Count Chacula, Oscar the Grouch!! LOL
So many role models to choose from!!

"Kids should have more variety of choices, Sangeen Khan, Raymond Davis, Rehman Malik, Maulana Diesel, Zardari"
Oh they'll be appearing as "Special Guests" ;-)
Love this...$20 Million bet on:
"Because truly, how can al-Qaeda prevail when kids are staring at the adorable face of Elmo on television?"
Truly, indeed!
(Did they consider that 90% of their target audience doesn't have TVs? And the reaming 10% might not be able to watch it due to load-shedding? At least the Pirzadas are going to be making a killing (and using that as a pun, I think it is going to put a BIG dent in Peeru's business...;-))
These idiots are encouraging the ever increasing gap between rich and poor (have and have nots) of Pakistan!!
Who is going to watch this show? Bilwal Zardaris and Zohair Torus of Pakistan and the real target audience would still have the same old choice of *&*) Sandwich or *(^* burger!!
BBC: Anti-US sentiment is 'rife' in Afghanistan and Pakistan
Don't worry, Elmo'll fix it! :-P

امریکا اب ایک نئے لارڈ میکالے کے روپ میں آ رہا ہے
تمام سائیکالوجسٹ اس بات پر متفق ہیں کہ بچے کی ذہنی نشو و نما اور رجحانات گیارہ سال کی عمر تک ایک خاص ڈھنگ میں ڈھل جاتے ہیں اور دیکھئے کہ اس پروگرام کا مقصد اور ٹارگٹ کون ہے
پروگراموں کا یہ سلسلہ جو کہ پانچ سے نو سال کے بچوں کو ذہن" میں رکھ کر ترتیب دیا جائے گا پاکستان کے سرکاری ٹی وی چینل
"کے علاوہ علاقائی چینلوں پر بھی نشر کیا جائے گا۔
" عمران پیرزادہ نے امریکی جریدے نیوز ویک کو بتایا کہ اس میں جو پتلی مرکزی کردار ادا کر رہی ہے وہ ایک بہادر اور جرات مند لڑکی کا ہے۔
انھوں نے کہا کہ وہ اس ماحول کی عکاسی کرے گی جس میں پاکستان کے دیہات میں ایک لڑکی کو گزرنا پڑتا ہے۔
انھوں نے کہا کہ اس لڑکی کا سفر لامحالہ طور پر پاکستان میں دہشت گردی کے خلاف جاری جنگ کو بھی چھوئے گا لیکن مذہبی بحث میں براہراست نہیں پڑے گا۔"
تیرے وعدے پہ جئے تو یہ جان جھوٹ جانا
کہہ خوشی سے مر نہ جاتے جو اعتبار ہوتا

He's gone there to seek forgiveness. Won't be surprised if he meets Raymond Davis over dinner :)

It is possible to have Elmo and Bin Laden as role models at the same time.

Peerzaada brothers get a lot of gov funds for their yearly RP festival in Lahore. Few years back Madiha Gauhar was miffed with them for their poor management and shoddy facilities she had alleged misappropriation of funds. So you never know this $20 million might get 'harampoonched':)

20 million usd for urdu sesame?
Sounds excessive, probably misreporting?

Here are the results of the "successful" Pasha trip:
'Like 9/11, serve ultimatum to Pakistan'
CIA will not halt operations in Pakistan: official

CFR: U.S.-Pakistan Partnership in Peril
And last but certainly NOT the least is this wonderful response from our Foreign Office:
FO: Shove it in me, BABY! I wanna feel it in my throat...
Pakistan on Thursday said it would continue its ‘multi-track engagement’ with the US law enforcement agencies in its counter-terrorism efforts despite recent hiccups in ties between the two countries....
