What's the Word on the Street?
From Muppet Wiki
What's the Word on the Street? first appeared in Sesame Street’s 38th season.
Murray Monster hosts this segment which precedes the corporate sponsor spots before each episode. Each segment begins with a shot of him saying, "Hi, I'm Murray from Sesame Street, and I'm looking for... the Word on the Street!" He then speaks with folks about what today's word means and instructs the audience to listen for its usage in the following episode. The word is later featured in the "street scenes" and highlighted again as the Word of the Day.
