After 45 years on PBS Sesame Street is coming to HBO. The episodes will air on PBS nine months after they aired on HBO.

Interesting. I could have sworn I saw something about "The Joy Of Painting" going to some streaming service as well...probably not related outside of both being PBS originals, however.

Sesame is mostly filler nowadays.

I'm 33 and remember when Sesame street was good. I saw it for the first time in 25 years or so the other day when I was visiting my friend who was baby sitting his sister's kids. What a horrible show. When did they turn more than half of the show over to that annoying little brat Elmo?

Hmmm...It doesn't seem right...Will they mix 'The Sopranos' with Sesame Street? See Tony drive by and shoot Elmo... and Burt & Ernie play cards in 'Deadwood'...
