Ryan Reynolds pokes fun at himself via Twitter after watching his A-Team gag on Sesame Street from a decade ago
Ryan Reynolds has long endeared himself to fans all over the world, in part, with his self-deprecating sense of humor.
And that brand of comedy, oftentimes directed at himself, was again on display when the Deadpool star poked fun at his appearance on Sesame Street back in November 2010.
He was reminded of his episode when a fan stumbled upon a recent re-broadcast of it and then posted about it on Twitter.

‘Watching a little @sesamestreet with the kiddo, and its an episode with @VancityReynolds [Ryan Reynolds] and the gang doing an A-Team gag. Its a delight, for both me and the kiddo,’ the fan wrote.
Straight off the top of the episode, Reynolds could barely keep a straight face when he delivered his first lines and sang about The A Team, which was a word play on the letter A and the 1980s action-adventure series.
After being tagged in the tweet, the Canadian actor read the comment and watched the video, then re-posted it with a comment where he takes a jab at himself.

‘I remember how challenging it was to sing because the A-hole was so tight,’ Reynolds joked in reference to the large letter A he had to put his head in to.
‘But I pushed through because kids all over the country were counting on me,’ he added which also had another dose of humor at his own expense.
A number of people who read the tweet and watched the video were amused enough to share such simple compliments like: ‘Amazing’ and ‘so adorable.’
One person asked one of the most obvious questions: ‘Like why didn’t they put your face in the triangle?’
