Sesame Street Season 50 News and Rumors

[minor muppetz]

I've seen on Ryan Dillion's Instagram post that Roosevelt might come back again soon. I'm not really sure if it was an actual hint or just wishful thinking.

Well, I mean, didn't we see Roosevelt Franklin in Season 40?

That was just a behind the scenes picture. He wasn’t actually in an episode.

Honestly that was actually very close to Matt’s Roosevelt voice!

Agreed! In fact, now I sort of wish Roosevelt became a regular character again...or at least make occasional appearances the way Guy Smiley has in recent years!

Would be nice. If nothing else, it seems like a one off story could use older characters if it fit with the curriculum. Like, they could use them the same way they do the random fairytale characters and talking beachballs, etc.

I thought his post implied that Roosevelt might appear and speak during season 50. But maybe he was just being hopeful, or maybe he was hinting at it, or maybe I misunderstood.

I'm surprised nobody on MC has mentioned this yet (or maybe they have, and I just haven't noticed), but SS will be doing a live stream with the Muppet Performers on Facebook this Friday at 2:00 EDT. I'm assuming this is like Matt's BTF live streams, but more "official" and more celebratory for Season 50.

I found this clever with how they use Ernie and Elmo in this.

I would not be surprised by this as it is the 50th season and you have to go a bit above and beyond to showcase the show’s history to the audience.
