New Sesame special, "When You Wish Upon a Pickle", airs November 10 on HBO

I'm starting to see a trend with HBO. So far, each HBO season has included a special - Once Upon a Sesame Street Christmas in 2016, The Great Wand Chase in 2017, and now When You Wish Upon a Pickle in 2018 - and it's known that a 50th anniversary special will air next year.

I've also noticed this and The Great Wand Chase air a week before their respective seasons (can't remember if that was the case with the Christmas special, though I'm feeling that season began after the year ended so probably), it's as if seasons are beginning with new specials (wouldn't be surprised if that's what will be done with the 50th anniversary special).

Now that the special has aired, we're moving the discussion here.
