    Sesame Street Season 46 Press Kit; HBO premiere set for Saturday January 16, 2016

    I doubt it. The set's only so big. The only ones getting "home bases" are Elmo, Abby, Cookie, Oscar and Big Bird.

    Sesame Street Season 46 Press Kit; HBO premiere set for Saturday January 16, 2016

    Here's another article explaining the changes made this season: http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2016/01/07/sesame-street-changes-new-season/78422700/ They certainly make sense.

    Sesame Street Season 46 Press Kit; HBO premiere set for Saturday January 16, 2016

    Abby's been in one EW episode (Violins), so it's taken from that.

    Sesame Street Season 46 Press Kit; HBO premiere set for Saturday January 16, 2016

    They've been using EW in the new half-hour edits on PBS. I've only seen one, but it's cut down to about 7 minutes. It's cropped into widescreen as well mostly (the Noodle family segments are pillarboxed, framed by the window). So, if they're using segments in the new season, they'll be like that.

    Sesame Street Season 46 Press Kit; HBO premiere set for Saturday January 16, 2016

    Another trailer from HBO: It's a little irksome that very little footage comes from the actual new material. And ew, EW's is re-running?

    Sesame Street Season 46 Press Kit; HBO premiere set for Saturday January 16, 2016

    New episodes debut on HBO first, and are then re-run on HBO Family. The past five seasons, if I understand correctly, will air on HBO Family as well (seasons 45 & 44 are already on their schedule). An "classic" episode will only be available on demand/through HBO Go/Now.

    Sesame Street Season 46 Press Kit; HBO premiere set for Saturday January 16, 2016

    So, the NY Daily News "reviewed" the first episode of the new season: http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/tv/hbo-debut-sesame-street-classic-winning-elements-article-1.2485605 Not much not already known (except that the "Letter"/"Number" intro songs are still there).

    Sesame Street Season 46 Press Kit; HBO premiere set for Saturday January 16, 2016

    Let's get one thing perfectly clear here: HBO DOES NOT OWN SESAME STREET BECAUSE OF THIS DEAL. All they're doing is funding production. Since they're footing the bill for the show, they get advanced airings and streaming rights. That's it. HBO isn't affecting what DVDs they make, what toys...

    The Muppets Episode 4 - Pig Out

    Even if you don't see the lyrics anywhere (it might be a rights thing), it's pretty obvious it's karaoke. It's a bar, after all.

    Sesame Street Season 46 Press Kit; HBO premiere set for Saturday January 16, 2016

    I've seen an Instagram post that has Kevin among a couple other puppeteers at some type of workshop there.

    Sesame Street Season 46 Press Kit; HBO premiere set for Saturday January 16, 2016

    I'm assuming whatever "classic" episodes they'll have will be on the "HBO Kids" service, not on the actual channel.
  14. Oscarfan

    Sesame Street Season 46 Press Kit; HBO premiere set for Saturday January 16, 2016

    If that trailer is any indication, there will be some classic episodes (on demand). Though the "classic" stuff (aside from the one E&B clip) is from the late 90's, but we'll see.

    TV Alert: Keep Christmas with You with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Sesame Street

    Haven't seen the unedited special, but man, that concert must have been fantastic in person. That giant stage & choir is amazing. I felt the balance between Sesame and the choir was good enough. The only thing I know they left out that would've been nice to see in there was the "Twelve Days of...

    Interesting. Though, they made a new puppet for season 45; I don't know why they're not using that.

    The Muppets Episode 9 - Going, Going, Gonzo

    I interned there the past two summers and yeah, I completely agree. Being able to watch all their stuff was a total fringe benefit.
