When I was a little boy, I had to stay home from school because I was sick. When I watched Sesame Street that day, C3PO and R2D2 guest starred in it.

I loved that episode. But when I told my brother that C3PO and R2D2 were in that episode, he thought that I was lying. Mom then told him that it was the truth.

you'd have to like 2 yrs . old to like this

Classic childrens program

Love it for kids and a show you would not have to worry about when it concerns little minds!

i can watch that w out my kids around

Good show but definately an urban focus. Lots of great guest appearances too.

Oh yeah! I grew up on this! Gotta love it!

hell yes

it was good when I was a kid but now it kinda freaks me out a bit

not for me, for the kids

for kids of course

kids favorite

OH MAN A CHILDHOOD FAV! LOVE THE GROVER!

Raven doesnt really watch this show, but I heard Bert or Ernie died of aids. Not very appropriate for the age group that watches it!!! In my opinion....

for kids

This was the gold standard of more modern kids shows.

I don't think I could really sit through a whole episode of Sesame Street anymore, but as far as kids shows go, it's defintely one of the best. I don't know how things with kids programming really are today, but when I was little, Sesame Street was one of about two or three children's shows that was both educational and entertaining almost 100% of the time.

I was in 3rd or 4th grade (dont remember) when this came out and watched it then. It was a new concept and more interesting than Electric Company. Now I havent seen it in awhile but they seem to introduce political issues such as being gay or having people of different races. I say good for them.

  This rating is for the current show format.

The originals were the best as it teaches you the society, manners, letters and numbers. Now it is geared towards culturality, and more of Elmo's world that it lacks most of its originality and luster. I admitedly was watching the whole show until about my mid-teens and when Slimey returned to earth  after his voyage to the moon, a lot has changed from there on. I would not get why they added Journey to Ernie, but Sesame Street after the death of Jim Henson, Joe Raposo, Wally (Bill McCutcheon), David (Northern Calloway), the original Gordon (Matt Robinson), Mr. Hooper (Will Lee), Jeff Moss, Rusty Magee and Edward L. Palmer, (they are major contributors-whew!) it seems disorganized and some of the songs are not memorable. The show is showing that it is drinking a little bit of lye too.

Unless it can rebound and stay true to education and storyline than be more towards fun, I would not have my children watch this at home as it would not let them learn much and apply what they see to schoolwork.

This show is friggin horrible and i eat elmos poop

The originals are the best. I just can't believe they're toning down Cookie monster.

I have a distinct feeling that this one will be around till the end of time. It was one of the few shows I would allow my son to watch when he was a toddler and now, 20 some odd years later, I encourage my grand children to watch it as well.

Very educational and entertaining!

Was one of my favorite shows when i was a kid, i'm glad its still on.

Still a wonderful show after all these years. My daughter has learned so much from Sesame Street. AND it provides a bit of nostalgia for me. :o)

The characters are classics now, I hope it stays around forever.

When I was a kid, I'd watch it every time it came on until I was in 3rd grade and it was great. Now that I'm an adult, the show has gone down hill with the addtion of whinnie bratty Elmo and turning Cookie Monster into the Healthy Monster. My kids watch this show, but I can stay in the same room with them when its on.

A classic children's show that teaches them the basics for starting school. The only problem that I find is that sometimes they push too hard at making the point and the storylines are of little importance which can make the show get repetitive. And what's with the new cookie monster!

Still a great show,grew up watching it.Love everyone on Sesame Street.Grover,Cookie Monster,Big bird,baby bear And all the great characters..Wonderful show.

still #1 kids love the characters like elmo cookie monster and learn at same time

Out of all the children's shows listed here, Sesame Street is by far the best. The fact that it's older than some of the kids (and even some adults) who star in it is a feat in itself. Good educational benefit, also.

Still wonderfully educational and entertaining after 35 years.

It's such a good show for kids and super grover and cookie monster were my favorite characters.

i luv this show myself its very fun and actully my little 2 year old sister knows when its on and loves the activities awesum show!!

This has to be one of the most creative, interesting, entertaining, educational and most importantly least patronising children's show EVER! I do not know one child that didn't enjoy Sesame Street growing up or one parent who was against their child watching this programme. The way this show chooses to tackle not just educational, but life issues with children is just credible. Learning is always fun on Sesame Street and even when they show brief advertisments its still fun and educational.

OMG who hasen't watched this show. Thanks to Big Bird and Grover that's probably how I learned to count and know my abc's. I also remember learning to count to 10 in spanish thanks to Maria. And now my kids watch it. I hope it stays on forever.

I'm just getting into "Sesame Street," and I think it's terrific. The characters are charming and interesting, and the show's content is age-apppropriate, engaging, and challenging. I like the way the show features well-known personalities as guests, and I especially enjoy the musical performances. Since I'll most likely be watching this show for years, I'm grateful it's one that I find appealing, too.
