    Well it looks like we may know who may show up in the Kennedy Center Honors when Sesame Street receives the award...

    Other celebrities...? Just look up the tributes to Mel Brooks or Shirley McLaine.

    From what I've seen, it's not usual that the honoree actually performs in the show. But the main Sesame Muppets apparently did something,

    Remembering Caroll Spinney (December 26, 1933-December 8, 2019)

    No doubt something related to his Dystonia, but the family is keeping the details private for the time being.

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Just for Caroll, here's an episode with Big Bird, Oscar, and the only-known episode involving the lesser-known Shivers the Penguin: https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_1735

    Sesame Street Episode 847 with Margaret Hamilton

    Alright, whatever. Let's move it along, now.

    Sesame Street Season 50 Episode 5004 - Getting Dressed, Not Stressed

    Not the most eventful story, but lots of neat puppetry stuff going on there. And David Rudman's jacket did a Scooterfist! Plus, I'm glad to see a little bit of a spotlight given to Baby Bear (even if that ending scene was super abrupt). Not much else to comment on (except a number segment, how...

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    You guys are overreacting. YT isn't blanket removing every single video that isn't making money.

    Sesame Street Special "Sesame Street's 50th Anniversary Celebration"

    So, the DVD release of this is a bit weird: the Solange song is cut (as is the scene in the Laundromat before it). And after the main part of the special, it goes to a bunch of those Sesame Memory videos, but now, after each one, a full clip is shown (either relating to do the memory or what was...

    "Sesame Street: 50 Years and Still Sunny!" documentary to air on PBS beginning March 1, 2020

    I've seen it on another schedule as well, but if the major stations aren't running it, it seems likely the smaller affiliates will be pulling it soon too. Keep a watch on that.

    "Sesame Street: 50 Years and Still Sunny!" documentary to air on PBS beginning March 1, 2020

    So it was just brought to our attention that this has been removed from the PBS schedules for some reason. We're looking into it, fret not!

    Sesame Street "Lost and Found" at the Museum of the Moving Image with Rosemarie Truglio and Norman Stiles November 24, 2019

    As I said above, all things but the two big episodes were abridged. It was a little of both, IIRC. Like, Hastings and Don Music were in there, but so was Sherlock, who (as far as we know) wasn't discontinued for any specific complaint/reason.

    Sesame Street "Lost and Found" at the Museum of the Moving Image with Rosemarie Truglio and Norman Stiles November 24, 2019

    Oh yeah. I deleted my posts about the event as a reactionary thing to the photo/video brew-ha-ha, but I'll re-summarzie things for those not present (not in excruciating detail). The main format was we saw clips, then Norman and Rosemarie reacted from a writer/curriculum standpoint. The...

    "A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood" starring Tom Hanks premieres November 2019

    I wasn't super into it. Tom Hanks was fine, but I wish there was more of him. I honestly wasn't invested in the writer guy's plot that much - adult dude estranged from his father; haven't heard that before...

    Sesame Street Season 50 Episode 5003 - Pigs for Another Day

    Yeah, but that was reused from season 47.

    Sesame Street Season 50 Episode 5003 - Pigs for Another Day

    Despite some funny lines from Grover and a pretty fine song, that was a total mess, right? I can't fathom the writers/editors going over this stuff and saying, "Yes, this works!" I liked that the Road Trip showed a little bit more of the local color; I hoped that's what they'd all be like...

    TV Alert: Sesame Street at Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade

    This was an original song for this performance. No, they're not going to be elsewhere in the parade.

    TV Alert: Sesame Street at Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade

    That was fun! I didn't recognize most of the celeb cameos, but hey Don Music! And seeing Snuffy out in the open is always awesome. This is his first time in the parade, right? (Yes, I know Alice has been in it a bunch.)

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    The script calls for Frank to perform Kermit (to Jim's vocal track), but from the video, it seems like it's Jim doing voice and puppetry.
