Sesame Street Preview: Jason Schwartzman and the Next Cast Iron Cook

Posted on November 17, 2011

Jason Schwartzman is so funny on the HBO show Bored to Death (he plays a detective novelist who moonlights as an actual detective). So it's not a surprise that he's willing to go for the silly for Sesame Street.

In this sneak peek at an upcoming episode, Jason is the Super Chef who runs an Iron Chef/Top Chef-like competition called Cast Iron Cook. Chris and Elmo help Alan compete in the difficult culinary competition. The Super Chef's wardrobe appears to be part ringmaster and part clown, with a bit of the Chairman thrown in for good measure. Take a look:
