Sesame Street 45 Years

In this June 22, 2010, file photo released by Sesame Workshop, “Sesame Street” characters Elmo, second from right, and Super Grover, right, pose with four new muppets representing healthy food groups; fruits, vegetables, dairy, and grains as part of their “Food For Thought: Eating Well on a Budget” initiative in New York.  AP

The “Mannequin Challenge” that proliferated on social media and was acted out by several Hollywood celebrities has reached the gates of “Sesame Street.”

In a light-hearted video shared on Twitter on Tuesday, Muppets, crew members and actors of the famed children’s series froze in front of the camera. Big Bird posed and pointed a finger to the “Sesame Street” signage, while Elmo and the human actors were spotted interacting with each other. Cookie Monster and Grover played football outside a busy bakery.

Unluckily, one or two familiar muppets spoiled the quiet scene. Find out who in the clip below:

FEATURED STORIES

Spirited advancements are coming to “Sesame Street”—just this week, Deadline reported that David Guion & Michael Handelman is penning a script for the children’s classic, to be produced by Warner Bros. The film is poised to be a sequel to “Follow That Bird” (1985) and “The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland” (1999).

After four decades of existence in American network PBS, “Sesame Street” relocated to HBO in 2015. The series, which debuted in 1969, will celebrate its 47th season next year.  Gianna Francesca Catolico
