Speaking of which, i sent them a email a week ago because curiosity clearly got the best of me...

"We're updating our catalog records for Sesame Workshop, so these items are temporarily unavailable. We still have our special collection description posted, and we plan to have the records themselves back up soon"

Was that due to the article?

This is something that was bound to happen, but since it took them so long I was beginning to think they weren’t going to do it. But they finally did. It took long enough. But anyway, yes, this is how all those episodes leaked for anyone who was wondering. I have known about it for a very long time but kept quiet about it.

It did. This was discovered way back in 2020. In fact, back in 2021, they blocked access to all the Sesame Street episodes. But they didn’t have all the episodes yet at that point, they only had down to season 15. Seasons 1-14 were added about 9 months later and they weren’t blocked. They eventually unblocked the others as well, but I think that was probably just a glitch. What I think happened was, someone finally figured out what was causing it and now they fixed it. You can cry all you want.

And you can keep projecting yourself all you want. Mr. “I’m never grateful whenever Sesame Workshop offers new, never released to the public episodes legally” 🤷‍♂️

Respectfully there is a difference between “personal attacks” vs putting someone in their place.

And honestly Phillip? I can’t even take a single thing from you seriously with the lack of contribution you give here with this otherwise dying forum regarding making sure everyone is safe. I’m sorry but I’m just expressing myself how I honestly feel with this.
