Classic Sesame coming to DVD

For those of you who want your children to experience those groundbreaking moments from your childhood memories, here's your chance.

In September, Sesame Workshop stated that they were considering the possibility of releasing "classic" Sesame Street material on DVD, but not to expect anything anytime soon. This is due to the necessary development time, many legalities and several other organizational issues that would need to be addressed first.

There is now light at the end of the tunnel. Recently we received the following response from Sesame Workshop on the issue:

We are planning to release a "Sesame Street Nostalgia Box Set", however this is something that will not happen until October '06.

In the meantime, we released a boxed set of The Electric Company in February '06, and there are plans for a second volume of The Electric Company as well.

So, now it is official. The first DVD box set of "classic" Sesame Street material should be released (if all goes as planned) in October 2006.

There are no further details on the set available at this time, but we'll be sure to keep you all updated as more information is revealed on this exciting upcoming release.

I am sure Slater will pre-order this for "his children."

Can't we just have an all-Guy Smiley DVD?

That'll probably be a bonus disc.

I don't care how old you are, the Muppets can be fucking hysterical.

I can't imagine an adult willingly sitting through an episode of Sesame Street, no matter how nostalgic or emotionally-stunted you might get. It's a toddler show.

(And yeah, I know Devin would lob the same charge at The Muppet Show.)

I'd sit through the Muppet bits of Sesame St... not the rest. Ernie, Bert, Cookie, Grover, Oscar... there's some funny shit in there & great puppetry as well.

I assume that's all that would be on this set, since surely no one would bother watching the skits with people.

No way, The Muppet Show was definitely for ages 6 to 10.

Speaking of which, is Muppet Show Season 2 still happening, or what?
