On November 10, 1969, something different happened on TV. An experiment began over the airwaves. One that had been researched and talked about for years before the first scene was even taped. Sesame Street sought to answer the question “can today’s children actually learn something from watching television?”. 40 years later we all know the answer is a resounding “YES!”, because almost all of us are graduates of the Street and can attest to the funny, quirky, catchy, and unforgettable moments Sesame Street has given us over the years.

In celebration of its 40th anniversary, The MuppetCast presents a special 3-episode tribute to the show, and everyone and everything associated with it.

Part 1 (Episode #135): A look back at the first 10 historic seasons of Sesame Street, featuring multiple audio pieces of special songs and moments. Many “firsts” can be found in this 2-hour audio production.

Part 2 (Episode #136): You might call this “A Story of Sesame Street”. In a 90-minute podcast it’s impossible to tell the entire story of this incredible show, but we focus in on a few choice moments and celebrate them.

Part 3 (Episode #137): A look back with one of the longtime Sesame Street cast members, Emilio Delgado. Mr. Delgado plays the character Luis on the show, and has done so since 1971.
