Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

Licensing deals can be very frustrating and complicated unfortunately. In the end, it all comes down to how the holder feels.

Apparently in 2002 they considered talking about God on Sesame Street. Wonder if the episodes actually aired or which ones they were even talking about?

This sounds too fictional to be real.

"Honk Around the Clock" is my #1 favorite Sesame thing, so I'm glad it got used (I didn't mind losing "I Want to Count" because it's such a lame parody, despite Cab and Jerry's talents).

Even reruns of SNL on cable TV, they always leave out the entire final half-hour of skits, which is a third of the entire show.

I always figured maybe it's easier to syndicate reruns of an hour-long show than a 90-minute show. And I think I read that the 30 minutes cut from each episode are bits that didn't work, Weekend Update reports that didn't work, and (which could be due to licensing) the musical guests second number.

Hear, hear! A nice, high quality uncut version with no trimming or effects on DVD.

Likewise it’s such a fun song especially with the Honkers.

That's right. Soon you children might be watching Count von Count explaining the Trinity, Cookie Monster on Communion, and Big Bird talking about God's grace.
