Sesame Street: Old School Season 3
DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:
As much as I absolutely love Sesame Street, especially the older episodes, these DVD collections are disappointing. We bought all 3 volumes. Each volume only includes one episode per season, and sadly they reuse so many sketches. It would seem that if you only get 5 episodes to cover 5 seasons, you might not see the same song 2-3 times. Some of the sketches even show up again in other volumes. While I understand that repetition is good for children and their language development, when we bought these disks, the plan was definitely to watch it multiple times, so we don’t need to see Ladybug Picnic or Jimmy John saying Up and Down on every disk. Honestly, I feel a little cheated.- g
I ordered this on Tuesday and just received it a little after 8 this morning (so thanks for the fast delivery). I was very disappointed that the opening theme song and the closing credits were missing. I loved the “funky chimes” as the funding credits played and hopefully it and the opening theme will return for volume 4. At least it did have the letter and number sponsor as well as the various Muppet or human cast member holding the Sesame Street and CTW signs at the end of each show. The creepy PBS vanity plate also makes an appearance. I also felt that the story arcs of Maria’s visit to Puerto Rico and Big Bird’s stay at summer camp should have had their own DVD sets or should have been made available on this set as an extra bonus. Overall I did enjoy it. I loved watching the episodes, singing the songs, and cried all over again when they told Big Bird that Mr. Hooper had died and wasn’t coming back. Hopefully, Old School volume 4 will return to the quality that volumes 1 and 2 so flawlessly have.- Kamesa E. Carter
