Yes. Especially when it comes to COVID-19.Because. They have a life to handle outside of posting stuff on YouTube.
It was a very interesting fact about the Workshop nearly facing bankruptcy, but the HBO deal saved them and also saved a very important educational institution for preschoolers from cancellation. Imagine the uproar from parents and grandparents if "Sesame Street" was to get cancelled.
I also think the reason for the near demise of "Sesame Street" was that the show was airing on weekdays for decades, and with the rise in kids entering junior kindergarten in the last many years, I agree that the show is better off airing current episodes on Saturdays only.
However, it is sad that new episodes will no longer be aired on television until PBS airs them many months after they get released to HBO Max.
