Hubba Wha?

Does anyone know why Sprout is suddenly playing the current seasons of SST? I mean I tuned in today, expecting to see something from like Seasons 33, 34, or even 35, only to be met with Murray and the Word on the Street, followed by the hip-hop-esque main titles, followed by Chris reading a story to Abby...

What brought this on? Does this mean an even bigger phasing out of older episodes from reruns in any form? On a plus side, maybe now I'll get to see some of what I've been missing for the past few years.

I wanna say it's because the channel broadcasts in HD now, so they're trying to make the SS re-runs fit in better.
