I've only seen the "Don't eat the Guest" episode, but I feel this is a great direction for Sesame Street, even though it's international. There's a perfect level of goofiness and wackiness that's on the level of Crumby Pictures, and somehow, their writing for Elmo is better than some of the stuff we see here. And I like how that specific episode manages to oddly parallel Star S'mores, right down to the same Cookie Puppet.

Though, it seems they're using the same songs for each episode. Not a bad thing, but continuity wise, they managed to make a huge slip up since Cookie wasn't there and he was the source of the impending catastrophe.
