‘Big Birdman’, A Touching ‘Sesame Street’ Parody of the Film ‘Birdman’ Starring the Actor Who Plays Big Bird

The Watercooler and Sesame Street have joined forces to create “Big Birdman,” a very sweet and very accurate parody of the 2014 breakout film Birdman. The parody features the incomparable Caroll Spinney, the man who has been playing the large yellow feathery character for over 45 years.

For your Oscar consideration: A veteran puppeteer, who plays an avian icon, battles his ego and attempts to find his way back to a certain furry and friendly street. This is ‘Big Birdman.’
