The Sesame Street You Remember
I don't know if it is an over inflated memory of when I was a kid, higher expectations built up over time, or simply that today's Sesame Street just doesn't have what it used to, but I am not a big fan of today's Sesame Street.
I will do my best to put here links to clips of the Sesame Street you remember and love. You can take a walk down memory lane. And, if you have kids, bring them along for the ride.

We all had some of this stuff. Anytime you find one in a flea market it is always well worn - these toys were played hard, just as they were meant to.

I agree with you completely! The old "classic" Sesame Street was so much better. I found your other lenses about Sesame Street celebrities and then I followed the link to this one. I like this one much better as I am a big fan (even though I am in my 40!) of the old Sesame Street.

Thing is, I'm so much more familiar with the new stuff, based on my kid's influence, that I forget what it used to be like. I don't remember Gordon being bald, as an example. Elmo's new, of course.
Anyway, great lens!
