    "Sesame Street's 50th Anniversary Celebration" special to air November 9 on HBO and November 17 on PBS

    Yeesh with all these crazy jumping to conclusions and such. One page has Elmo/Abby dialogue - must be all about them! Page doesn't mention the use of archival clips - must not be any! From what I've seen across Instagram and the info we already know about it, this special appears more in line...

    Top 6 Darkest Sesame Street Episodes

    I find it a little concerning that the episodes with Julia were "honorable mentions," when they are far from "dark" despite dealing with a realistic matter such as autism.

    Sesame Street Season 50 News and Rumors

    The "core group" thing is definitely there still, especially in the marketing. It seems very clear now that the stars are Elmo/Abby/Cookie, with emphasis on folks like Big Bird, Grover and Rosita (and maybe Oscar, Ernie and Bert for good measure). All the rest seem like just supporting players...

    International skits on Youtube...

    So this user has uploaded pretty much the entire run of Rechov Sumsum, but they also have something totally neat - the Israeli version of the "Shalom Sesame" videos, which just dub everything in Hebrew and kind of rending the whole point void:

    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    Fridays are more long-form things, like an Elmo the Muiscal/Foodie Truck/full episode/compilation, not specifically an Elmo thing (it leans more toward Elmo stuff because they get bigger view numbers, if you notice).

    Sesame Workshop/Shout! Factory Deal

    "Happy Birthday to You" entered the public domain in 2016.

    Sesame Street Season 50 News and Rumors

    I guess he's not very marketable - he's just kind of a bear-looking character without anything distinct about his design. That, and he's not really an *original* character.

    Sesame Street Season 50 News and Rumors

    A couple of omissions from that big group shot (poor Baby Bear and Prairie...and Gonger, and Julia too.) but it's nice to see Grundgetta, Herry and MUMFORD thrown in the mix.

    Sesame Street Season 49 Episode 4925 - Welcome to Sesame Hospital

    Another "stuff happens" thing, huh.

    Real NY Street Permanently Renamed 'Sesame Street' in Honor of 50th Anniversary

    They were just looping "The Best of Elmo" album.

    Real NY Street Permanently Renamed 'Sesame Street' in Honor of 50th Anniversary

    That was what was going on (source: me being in the crowd). As for Noel, he wasn't at the event. Paul McGinnis and Andrew Moriarty were there, so it might have been one of them.

    New Muppet series in development for Disney's 2019 streaming service

    I've been saying that for ages. I don't know why it wasn't done after those YT ones went over so well. Something like "Popcorn" or "Stand By Me" would've played great in a theatrical setting.

    Video: Sesame Street Guest Star of Meet the Peetes...

    No, just clips from the first episode and the "Days of the Week" song, which both seemed to be sourced from YT. It's on Hallmark Channel's website, or just go to ToughPigs and they have an article linking to it.

    Defunctland TV is dedicating the entire month of April 2019 to Jim Henson

    Those bits were the only things I really liked - matching the entries from Jim's Red Book with the video of each thing; like a video form of that Imagination Illustrated book. I could honestly watch a whole video based on that premise.

    Sesame Street Season 49 Episode 4923 - Earth Day

    Stephanie's mole was funny, I guess. And it was nice to see Grundgetta. That's about it.

    Defunctland TV is dedicating the entire month of April 2019 to Jim Henson

    My bad, sorry I had an opinion. Something about his delivery isn't working for me. He's talking about silly puppet shows but sounds like he's reading a class assignment; there's not enough personality coming through.

    Am I the only one who can't get into the host?

    Sesame Street Season 49 Episode 4922 - Dinosaur in the Laundromat

    Felt like an extended celebrity sketch for a bit there. Nice bit of background acting on Herry thinking he was the person they were going to consult. But, I know "RuleOfFunny" and all, why would an adult man like Chris have a dinosaur toy? They couldn't elaborate on something, anything. And...
