One 11 minute story?? They better not cut the variety aspects of Sesame Street. Personally I feel like going from 1 hour to 1/2 hour was a mistake already, going shorter won’t help. Things feel rushed. My children become invested in the narratives they write, the variety segments serve as additional memorable bits they hum and sing to themselves later on too.

I feel like Apple TV+ would have loved to have gotten to rights for Sesame Street

Even if Apple TV had it for free people would refuse to watch simply because it was on Apple.

If it was on Apple TV no one would ever know about it.

I just don't understand Apple TV... they put out some AMAZING shows, but there's hardly ever any buzz about them.

IMO Severance and Ted Lasso have both had a ton of buzz about them.

I was being a bit hyperbolic, but my point was that Apple has put out some incredible shows and it seems that no one ever talks about Apple TV.
