FYI: Sesame Street has released on YouTube more than 140 full episodes from past seasons. On the Sesame Street Classics channel, you’ll find some iconic episodes, starting with the very first 1969 broadcast. Watch it above. Also on that same channel you can revisit episodes where Big Bird reveals that Snuffy is real, Mr. Rogers visits the show, Maria and Luis get engaged, and the death of Mr. Hooper gets delicately addressed. Beyond these episodes, you can also watch 129 complete episodes on Sesame Street’s main YouTube Channel here. Enjoy!
