    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    Somebody has made that guide you're referring to based on absolutely nothing; they made up inserts to go in.

    Homebrew season albums

    Once again, it's time for another collection of songs from the newest season of Sesame. Not gonna lie, not many of these are great, but I assume they might be of some interest to some folks. This time it's Season 49, which includes tracks from: All songs from the season - street plots, inserts...

    50th Anniversary DVD announced

    A. Unless they put out some classic episodes down the line and the Cracks cartoon happens to be in, I don't see any official release of that any time soon. B. Professor Hastings is boring, so I doubt he'd make the cut.

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

    Someone you'd hear on TV is a professional and was vetted through a process. The guy doing these videos is doing things on his own. And yes, I found him equally dry on other videos I watched.

    50th Anniversary DVD announced

    The Sesame Spoofs set was sold on iTunes as two separate "movies," so this would probably follow the same.

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

    I appreciate the fact that they did this series and all the work that went into them. I do. But, I'm sorry, the narration makes it such a chore to get through; I can't stand it. The Muppets should register more emotion and not constant monotone, flat delivery. And there's a number of times...

    Has anyone seen this segment before?

    It was first shown in #1512, and (possibly) last seen in #1809.

    50th Anniversary DVD announced

    My turn for speculation: re: Disc 1 - I wouldn't expect a season-by-season breakdown like the 40 Years disc. Since it's only three hours or so, I would probably expect segments to be grouped by decade, and I would not be surprised if some seasons get overlooked/unrepresented. re: Disc 2 - This...

    Sesame Street Season 49 Episode 4935 - Cookie Monster's Museum Mystery

    I mean, I guess it's remarkable that they were able to make a coherent (albiet rapidly-paced) story from a special while cutting it to a quarter of its original running time. Overall, I'm not all impressed by this season. The whole "plan the play" theme isn't bad, but what it produced weren't...

    It's Official: Caroll Spinney retires from Sesame Street after nearly 50 years

    What is it with you and the ratings/budget cuts? Evidence suggests the prime motivation behind this was that due to his age and physical condition, he just couldn't do the performances anymore.

    Make classic Sesame Street available online (petition)

    I don't know why they even did it in the first place (especially when season 2 came and they apparently went like, "Let's do an extra 15 episodes this season!"). Considering the show airs 5 days a week (yeah, I know some stations do weekends too), an even number like that wouldn't really work...

    Make classic Sesame Street available online (petition)

    Personally, I don't really like the whole "random vignettes on the street" approach unless they can come up with funny/interesting ones. Also hot take: they should've knocked off that whole "130 episodes a season" thing ages beforehand. Less episodes would allow them to put the money toward...

    Make classic Sesame Street available online (petition)

    It's kind of hard to take seriously someone who once, unironically, posted "I want every episode from 1-3005." (On a related note: calling folks "Sesame Brats" doesn't sound any more mature than the people obsessing over inconsequential stuff.)

    I wouldn't think there are going to be any; these discs look they'll be stuffed to the max with highlights.

    Sesame Street Season 50 News and Rumors

    Cover art is a bit bland compared to the 40th anniversary one, but whatever. The Vulture article makes it sound like one disc is assorted clips, and the other disc is memorable street stories. Seems good to me.

    Sesame Street Season 49 Episode 4934 - Slimey at the Car Race

    The street plot was already really short and yet they edited it down to be even shorter, so they could fit in..."Plan the Play"...again. I did like that "C is for Cars" toon; that is exactly how these letter shorts should be - actually teaching the letter.
