Well, the woman that I talk to in the Sesame Street music department, Vicki Levy, is always very nice, but she can't do anything about it. I have spoken with Meeri Park, the programming director for Noggin, and she is not very nice. I told her all about how sad I was because of them cancelling Sesame Street Unpaved and the 123 Sesame Street shows from Season 25, but she just said, "Those are pretty much gone forever. I understand that you're upset, but there's nothing we can do. You see, we don't make Noggin for you, we make Noggin for a whole bunch of people, and a majority of the people who watch Noggin say that they really like the new Noggin." See, Noggin is a network for preschoolers, who like the new episodes of Sesame Street they have, because they have Elmo's World, which is extremely popular. And from 6 PM on, it's something completely different called "The N", which is for older kids, and young teenagers. But Sesame Street Unpaved doesn't go with either of those. They do not have a market for wierd, nostalgic adults. They thought they would, but all of us here on Muppet Central is not enough people for them to keep it. The channel is now in 36 million homes.
But anyway, Sesame Street is a show for preschoolers, right? And if they were to do a DVD collection of every episode ever made, it would cost way too much money. Probably thousands of dollars. And as I said before, there really aren't that many nostalgic SS fans for them to do it. Parents are not going to throw down that much money for their kids. If they buy a DVD of Elmo's World for $10, the kids are more than happy.
