In this episode, We have a spring has sprung party, Telly is scared of worms. What's up with that? Does he know Slimey? We get a reference of the episode of Elmo scared of clowns and we get help from an old friend and surprisingly enough, Nina's science teacher, Gordon to learn about worms. We get an animated segment about kids favorite seasons. We get a new foodie truck segment with a twist, We already know where maple syrup came from which has reused on location part, so Cookie Monster and Gonger having a pancake party is the best excuse. I didn't know that maple syrup was used for roasted vegetables and not just pancakes. We get an animated segment where a boy talks abou the seasons. Then you and me solve a mystery of Elmo and Tango's mysterious mysteries where Elmo and Tango solve the mystery of Abby's broken hose.

This was overall the most "classic" feeling episode I've seen in a very long time. Telly in a starring role with his old worry wart ways. Gordon being around. And mentioning how he used to be a teacher. And a reference to an episode from the 90s. This episode almost seems like a little treat they threw in for us adult fans of classic sesame Street or even parents watching with their kids.

It was very nice to see Telly and Gordon. Though I do want to point out that Telly being afraid of worms is kind of something new. All those years he knew Slimey he wasn’t afraid of him. I’m a bit surprised Slimey wasn’t mentioned in the episode.

I kept thinking they were gonna mention something about slimey since Oscar did appear in the episode, in his can. But they didn't. Would have been nice if Oscar would have mentioned Telly's not afraid of slimey and telly could have mentioned slimeys a "different kind of worm" he's cute and cuddly.

I noticed that Slimey inconsistency too, but it does seem like you cleared that up for us perfectly.

Yep, great to see our friend Gordon Robinson again. Interesting mention that he WAS a science teacher implying that he's most likely retired by now, but hopefully he'll stick around the street more and more.

I definitely agree with your mention that it's a treat for us old school SS fans. Hopefully they'll have more eps like that.
