Description Despite all of it's faults, Modern Sesame Street is doing a wonderful job with their newest member, Julia. She is perfectly fleshed out and more relatable than most of the Sesame Street Muppets. The fact that her performer has a son with Autism (like Julia does), sure helps Julia stand out more.

In most media nowadays, disabled characters are just used as an excuse to get a larger audience or fanbase, but Julia's depiction is much more realistic than most portrayals. When most people show disabled characters, it makes them look as if they are childish, extremely OCD, or just plain strange. Julia shows that not every special needs guy is like that, and how accepting we need to be of these types of people. She also stands out from most disabled characters in the media because she is a girl, since most (if not, all) of them are guys. I can't wait to see more of Julia in the future. She's probably the first breakout character in the series since Abby.
