I've noticed we're coming close to what has been the season premiere date for the past several years. However, I haven't heard anything about Season 55, or seen any promos for it. Though I do remember last year reading that the major changes weren't going to happen until season 56. But I read somewhere else that it was going to happen in season 55. But I think there's usually promos and press kits usually weeks before a season premieres, and I haven't seen anything like that. There's no information about it on Muppet Wiki either.

I think there is a delay for the production schedule for Sesame Street Season 55 or they decided to wait for the children's events to give every one attention.

I kind of agree on this.

It seems like the only thing I've seen confirmed for season 55 is the Noah Kahan guest appearance.

I wonder if the threat of a looming strike by the show's writers (which had supposedly been settled) had anything to do with the delay in release of Season 55?

Maybe with the possible late start to the season, could this mean a smaller number of episodes produced for the upcoming season?

I bet, if we don't see any Season 55 launch this month, chances are it will likely launch in the new year.

I do wonder why it is not announced. It is now 55 years old and holds the longest title of TV run.

Yeah, I was wondering why we haven’t gotten any news about season 55 yet too, until I remembered that pretty much the entire entertainment industry was on strike for a good portion of 2023, so that probably didn’t help.

Well, they shot the season still; it was struck work.

My thinking is that there still isn't any definitive plans for Season 56, so they're holding off on premiering this maybe to create less of a delay. I would wager it won't come until 2025.

I would say that Season 55 won't see the light of day until as late as February. If they launch the new season in February, that would put that season's finale date at October or even early November - with little time before the point when Season 56 would start.

I would say they're waiting until they get confirmation about the show's future, and for there to be a long delay, I have a feeling the show is not doing well in the ratings these days.

I don't know when exactly a renewal would be announced, but January or February does make logical sense.
