That really sucks they've cut back on the human cast. They even got rid of some of the more newer human characters like Leela! It won't be the same without the human cast I grew up with. Sure, Mr. Hooper and David were already dead when I was watching the show as a tot, but we still had Gordon...

I saw Herry Monster on the Sesame Street float! Good to see him back in action! Just Elmo and Abby Cadabby were in the nest with Big Bird. They're still the two main Muppet stars it seems, with Big Bird as their sidekick... When they introduced the float, they played an instrumental of the...

That was a fun opening number! I really enjoyed Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem's version of "Twist and Shout," and it was also fun to see Fozzie, Rowlf, Lew Zealand, the Swedish Chef and more. All the rest I'm probably going to watch this year is the "Sesame Street" float in 40 minutes...

Great to see the "Slimey Goes to the Moon" story arc again! Hopefully, SesameWorkshop will compile the street scenes from those episodes all together into a DVD release that shows the entire story!

The only Frank Oz character I recall David Rudman taking over is Cookie Monster. Though initially, Eric Jacobson performed Cookie Monster for a bit before passing the role to Rudman. However, David Rudman DOES have a knack for taking over Richard Hunt's characters, such as Sully, the right head...

I had a bad feeling this would eventually happen. Look at most Sesame Street picture books (with a few exceptions) and other pieces of merchandising since the 70s; they mostly only focus on the Muppets. Same with the "Sesame Street Live" shows they've done from 1980 to today; they mostly just...

I have to agree, the 1998-2001 era of "Sesame Street" was pretty good. Sure, this is when they introduced "Elmo's World," but we still had the classic "magazine"-esque format, and it heavily emphasized the classic songs and featured the classic characters, probably to celebrate the show's 30th...

Well, I saw according to the Muppet Wiki that on DVD, the "Public Transporation" segment of "Elmo's World" had the Peanuts theme replaced during Dorothy's fantasy of Elmo flying a plane, AND the "Chattanooga Choo-Choo" theme replaced during the fantasy of Elmo driving the train. Unfortunately...

Though now I'm not entirely sure if that is true. The episode that aired after it, Episode 0848, does have the "Cracks" segment, so I don't know if they'd show the same cartoon segment two episodes in a row. But maybe it's gone one of those really freaky cartoons by Etienne Delessert, like the...

You know, the way "Sesame Street" has changed a lot with the reduced length reminds me of when something similar happened to "Big Bag," another CTW-produced show that aired on Cartoon Network in the 90s (for those who don't remember.) The first season in 1996 had 13 hour-length episodes, each...

Since many of them are being found online lately, I thought I'd bring them up. One artist/animator that has contributed some really strange/bizarre/creepy "Sesame Street" cartoons would have to be Swiss illustrator Etienne Delessert, in 1973-1974. Generally, these cartoons only run for 30...

That's sad! I remember he also did the "Chariots of Fur" theme, the "Mysterious Theater" and "Caveperson Days" theme, and others. I also enjoyed the "Peligro" song. He and Danny Epstein also did the music for the "Sesame Street Start-to-Read" videos produced by Random House Home Video.

Nope; they didn't play ANY Sesame Street theme this year. They did seem to change a bit more music in it as well; the parade theme music went back to being the theme to "New York, New York", but instead of the marching band rendition, it sounded more similar to the Frank Sinatra version but...

The float has just come on, and they performed their song with QuestLove! The only Muppet who got any solos was Elmo, though, and the only human cast member of the show I recognized on the float was Alan... Man, am I the only one who was watching this year?

When they announced the lineup, they mentioned "The Cast and Muppets of Sesame Street!" FINALLY they do it the right way, instead of the old confusing ways they'd announce them. But other than that, they almost ignored the floats and balloons, saving them as an afterthought of sorts. They just...

The other "male" face morph cartoon has been uploaded! REALLY surreal...

I noticed one of the poll options saying when the show dropped from 130 episodes a season to 26. I will say that with Season 30, they dropped it to 65 episodes a season because of how introducing "Elmo's World" changed the tooling of the show enough that older episodes from prior seasons could...

It looks like ever since the 2011 Muppets film, Uncle Deadly has become one of the semi-main characters now! Hopefully if Disney makes new Muppet plushies soon, they'll make one of Uncle Deadly too!

The Sesame Street News segment with Kermit and the Five Little Pigs is back on YouTube! However, it's got the copyright-bypassing video-stabilization effect (the copy of Episode 0812 it was taken from already had it), but it's still good to see it again, with Jerry Nelson trying to hide the fact...

I don't want it to really go off-topic, but these changes seem to invoke a certain song...
