    Sesame Street Season 56: Major changes and yet another format change

    Could be a great idea. A episode i'd like to see is one where Oscar and Rudy find out they have the same birthday.

    Sesame Street Season 55 Episode 5514 - I Wonder If We Can Use This?

    Kinda no longer thinking that Telly and Zoe will be retired for season 56. If anything, i'm starting to think they could make their FFF (Furry Friends Forever) art style debut! Where? "Tales from 123". There have been 11 new street stories so far this season. Zoe has been in 4 of them. Telly has...

    Sesame Street Season 56: Major changes and yet another format change

    No more Foodie Truck? Then i guess Gonger will be the next entry to the "Retired Sesame Street Character Wall".

    Sesame Street Season 56: Major changes and yet another format change

    If i were in charge i'd expand the focus, not shrink it down even further. Main characters: Abby Cadabby Bert Big Bird Cookie Monster Count von Count Elmo Ernie Grover Herry Monster Julia (the only character from the HBO era who i actually like) Oscar the Grouch Prairie Dawn Rosita Snuffy Telly...

    What happened to the pre-Season 49 Abby puppet?

    The old-outfit Abby puppet used for ending tags for repeat stories... Is that the original or a replica? If it's a replica, that means the original likely went home with Leslie in 2017-2018.

    My opinion on Elmo has changed

    Yup!👍

    What if Elmo, Abby Cadabby and Zoe were introduced during the first five seasons?

    Exactly what it says on the tin. How different would Sesame Street have gone if these well-known, but more "modern", characters had been around since the early days and were not associated with the "modern" Sesame Street? Note: They WOULD be main characters, but NOT to the degree of Big Bird...

    The Return of "Muppet What-Ifs?"

    What if Julia was the daughter of Ernie's sister and Bart, and Bert and Ernie were revealed to be brothers-in-law? (I'm asking this because Julia is the same shape as Ernie but the same color as Bert)

    Dreams about Muppets...

    I had a really weird dream: In 1967, along with "Gleep", a purple Elmo (looking sort of like the "Tickled-out Elmo" from the Simpsons) and a yellow Zoe appeared on the Ed Sullivan show. And those puppets were indeed the actual Elmo and Zoe. It wasn't until SS season 2 that they'd be red and...

    Why does Disney still allow Sesame Workshop to use the term "Muppet"?

    I don't know. Sesame Workshop's website is also allowed to mention Disney Muppets' names, for example on their page for Eric Jacobson.

    My opinion on Elmo has changed

    I don't hate him anymore. Zoe has left my hate-radar too, and even Abby has. The only characters i hate nowadays are characters like Gabriëlle, who are literally just Muppetized humans. Before you say anything, that's VERY different from Muppet humans. Muppet humans have unnatural skin colors no...

    Who are characters you feel won't survive the Season 56 format change?

    How much? Telly was in the very next episode to air after you posted that, And Snuffy is getting his own episode soon too: https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_5517 Airdate is May 8th.

    How come no one here is talking about the Sesame Street Blokees?

    Blokees are model kit action figures that you can put together yourself. I particularly like the Sesame Street ones because the mouths can move, just like the actual puppets on the TV show. Currently confirmed for the SS line: Wave 1 (released): Elmo, Cookie Monster, Big Bird and Abby. Wave 2...

    Sesame Street Figures from Super7

    With Elmo getting made (wasn't expecting it), i hope we can get some late 80s/early 90s debutees in the line too one day.
