Nickelodeon acquires Sesame Workshop's interest in Noggin

[MuppetQuilter]

As I understand it-- and I think Scott has a very good point about press releases and headaches-- PBS gets all first run episodes of SST and probably has dibs on reruns until the next season begins airing. Noggin has dibs on all other broadcasts-- 123 Sesame, Sesame Unpaved, Play with Me (I know, it is a different show, but it uses tons of classic clips). I imagine Sesame Workshop can still do the occasional primetime TV special as we've had in the past with anniversary celebrations and CinderElmo.
