I really didn’t like the edits they made to the street story here. Having Elmo and Rosita immediately transform into the shapes needed instead of Telly turning into a triangle beforehand removed a lot of the conflict, plus a lot of funny moments removed as well.

Oddly enough, I did enjoy the “letter” segment with the sandwiches making shapes.

It was nice to see Telly in something new again. He was in the closing tag. So it seems like the only time they ever use him in new material is for new closing tags of old plots.

"A million triangles!"

That was a pretty good episode, to be honest. But, when will Sesame learn to stop repeating shows from over 10 years ago?

I actually like it when they do that. It’s similar to how they used to show old inserts in new shows. And sometimes it can be nice to see them again after awhile.

Given how they’ve been in HD for over 13 years now, I don’t really see the problem with them repeating older episodes.
