Episode 5201 - Elmo Builds a Robot Dog
HBO Max Premiere: Thursday November 11, 2021
PBS Premiere: Monday, September 12, 2022

Elmo, Tamir, and Alan build a robot dog for Norbert the Robot, but the tail isn’t upright and “waggedy” like Tango’s tail. What if they use a wooden paint brush and wrap it with shiny foil? Let’s try!

This episode features an all-new street story, I Wonder, What If, Let’s Try ("Building a Robot Dog"), Abby's Amazing Adventures ("Robot Builders"), and a new Elmo & Tango's Mysterious Mysteries ("Music Robot").

Woo-hoo! Now to throw a #ElmosWorldRebootIsOverParty.

More of the same, it seems. Tango's cute though.

I'm not sure I like that we've returned to "a good chunk of the show is animated versions of the characters," especially because neither of the shorts are as entertaining as Abby's Flying Fairy School or B&E's Great Adventures. At least the Elmo/Tango short involves other Muppet characters a little.

Amen! I hate the reboot but I love the original series! And maybe it may not be a replacement by we’ll see!

I like the idea of Norbert being a recurring character, as D'Snowth said, Marty can take anything and make it an interesting character. I just hope Telly's not gone for good. The song in the street story was really good. The new Elmo and Tango segment seems like fun so far. We'll have to wait and see if this really is an EW replacement, they might alternate with new ones that might have been filmed for this season.

Yeah! That’s what I was trying to say!

Just to be clear, Sesame Workshop plans to air "Elmo & Tango's Mysterious Mysteries" at the end of the show in effect replacing "Elmo's World" in those episodes. However, Elmo's World will continue airing in other episodes that do not include "Elmo & Tango's Mysterious Mysteries".

Uh ok? Will they be new Elmos world episodes?

I understood that. I just doubt they’ll make any more new EWs.
