I was recently reading this blog post, and wondered if anyone has ever seen the Japanese version of Sesame Street floating around on Youtube or knows where one can view it? I did a search but wasn't able to locate any. I actually have most of the DVD releases but wanted to show a friend in the states quickly and easily.

There was like a 10 second clip someone filmed off of TV that got removed quite some time ago. Basically it was just Cookie Monster singing a song, it was too fuzzy to really see much of. There was a clip of a dubbed Ernie and Bert clip, but that was removed too.

Yeah that's about what I saw as well. I will just need to figure out how to convert what I have and just send it to my friend that way. Thanks for your help!

I actually have seen a few episodes during my last trip to Japan some years ago.

Oh cool can you help me get those?
Greetings Paul
Hi, they are on Sonya's Japan website store, and they ship over seas. They have about 10 seasons of their own non-dubbed stuff. <http://www.sony.co.jp/> Use google translate to help you understand this. I am from Maine, in the USA. Glad I could help you!!!!
