International skits on Youtube...

Here's the Sesamstrasse 40th Anniversary music video, "Mahna Mahna".

Here's a full Sesamstrasse album:

I don't know about you, but I really wouldn't buy an album of just audio sketches, especially when some (the Circle Search bit) don't work in an audio medium.

Here's the Spanish version of the Classic Alphabet.

Here's "Doin' the Pigeon" in Spanish as well.

Friends in The House from the new Shalom Sesame:

OOF! That's why I never liked the half dubbed clips. Even now, it's horridly clumsy. The English audio is clear and crisp, the Hebrew audio is all muddy. Why, when the Count and Elmo enter the house, you can hear just a bit of their Hebrew voices before it cuts to English. You can hear a whole SHHH from The Count.

They're usually better than that, but that's not really a good dub.

Kids cooperating, dubbed in Malay:

They're usually better than that, but that's not really a good dub.

The editing was pretty clumsy to hear just a bit of Elmo and The Count's Hebrew Dialogue. Somehow, they should have done it the other way around and made the guests speak in Hebrew dialogue and Carlton in English.

Anyway... am I the only one that thinks it's funny that they're using 90's clips in 2010 (or so) when they used early 70's clips in the 1980's edition? The 90's edition was the only one that had clips that were slightly current.

Here's five full episodes of Baghch-e-Simsim in Pashto, mixed with other international segments. Wait until you hear what the Play with Me Sesame theme song sounds like in this language.

 

[Oscarfan]

Good god, that's probably the worst dub I've ever heard.

And did they really import a Plaza Sesamo bit in there?

 

[Oscarfan]

I have no idea what this is, but I have a feeling Drtooth will like it
