    Full Episodes of Johnny Carson's Tonight Show will air on Antenna TV

    They didn't have the forefront to keep things. Plus, videotape was expensive back then, so they'd record over shows.

    Your Thoughts: "I Am Big Bird: The Caroll Spinney Story"

    It is available in stores. I know it's at Barnes and Noble, apparently (it's not at the ones near me, but their site said it was at one near my internship, though I couldn't find it).

    Sesame Street shrinks to 30 minutes, new shows will premiere on HBO and PBS nine months later

    (not apologizing for double posting) (This didn't occur to me until afterward) I think it's just a coincidence that she left before this deal was made. In SW's own press release about the set changes back in April, it's said the season will start "fall of 2015 on PBS Kids." So, this deal wasn't...

    Sesame Street shrinks to 30 minutes, new shows will premiere on HBO and PBS nine months later

    Very well said, no "high horse" necessary. I don't think they'll stop putting their stuff on YouTube. As I had posted before, those viral views are essential to them these days and from an all-around standpoint, it would be foolish to give that up.

    Sesame Street shrinks to 30 minutes, new shows will premiere on HBO and PBS nine months later

    Did they also tell you when the season is supposed to start? I'm assuming that since the hour-long shows are dropped on Nov 16, the new season starts then too. They kind of already do - Sesame Street GO. It's pretty much what you said though - mainly recent stuff with a couple dozen classic...

    You are severely misinterpreting what he said.

    Sesame Street shrinks to 30 minutes, new shows will premiere on HBO and PBS nine months later

    Here's another article giving more detail as to why SW made this move: http://variety.com/2015/tv/news/sesame-street-hbo-sesame-workshop-1201569728/ Dwindling DVD sales really explains why everyone of their DVDs this year as been Elmo-centric.

    The Sesame re-runs until new episodes show up. They're not taking the show away until then.

    We should also be so lucky: Sesamstraat suffered a similar fate, going from 30 minutes to 15. And from what I've seen, the format works fine for them.

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    You're pretty much saying the opposite of what I said. ASIDE from celebrity and bits with the count, there's only: Elmo and Abby's "Two is You and Me" cover and those 2 Two-Headed Monster bits

    Yes, and the typically keep the entire series up. They still have all the Flight of the Conchords episodes up.

    Sesame Street shrinks to 30 minutes, new shows will premiere on HBO and PBS nine months later

    I think we need to make one thing clear here: SESAME STREET IS NOT LEAVING PBS. New episodes are simply premiering on HBO first, then a little while later on PBS. That's all. People without HBO will still get to see the new shows. Kids probably won't care/notice if the shows are new or not...

    Sesame Street shrinks to 30 minutes, new shows will premiere on HBO and PBS nine months later

    The YouTube videos are too crucial to Sesame's current appeal and advertising to give up.

    Sesame Street shrinks to 30 minutes, new shows will premiere on HBO and PBS nine months later

    Question: Nothing is really said in the articles about HBO that they'll be carrying the show as a 30-minute program. Is it too much to assume that HBO will air the show as 60-minutes, while PBS will shorten it to 30?
