A day after it was rumored that PBS cut Sesame Street’s episodes down to a half hour from a full hour, HBO announced that they picked up the Educational show for 5 more seasons. Nine months after the episodes air on the pay cable network, they will be available to PBS free of charge.
The really great news about the move is that they Sesame Workshop can produce twice as much new content as they did in the past. If that news isn’t good enough, then how about the fact that they will be producing a Muppet spinoff series as well.
It is a definitely a sunny day on Sesame Street and for HBO too.
