There have been some pretty terrific Homeland parodies over the past few years—most of which poke fun at Claire Danes’ Carrie Mathison character, and her incomparable ability to break into tears at any given moment—but none come close to this one: The Sesame Street Homeland parody.

In four-and-a-half glorious minutes, Sesame Street’s parody, “Homelamb,” basically nails the entire plot of season one, replacing the characters as sheep and a wolves. CIA agents Caaaaa-rrie and Saaaaa-ul are on the hunt for the Big Bad Wolf, who is “still sitting on a lamb.” To catch him, they enlist the help of Nicolas Baaaa-rody, a hero for sheep-kind.

But is Baaaa-rody all that he seems? Caaaa-rrie says he’s “not the sheep you think he is.” She’s also wildly attracted to him. Sadly, F. Murray Abraham in sheep-form is not present.
