Looking at Sesame Street from then and now all I can say is WOW!!! My wife and I were watching the first disk today with my 7 month old son, and all I can say is that my oldest son missed out on some great learning material. Today's Sesame Street does not even compare to the SS that us 30 somethings grew up with. We actually learned from the "Old School" Sesame Street, not like today where the whole show is centered around a red monster who refers to himself in the third person. What kind of nonsense are they trying to teach our kids today with that? A wonderful set except it would have been real sweet if they had included more episodes in the set, my reason for this set not getting five stars. Other than that, the Old School Sesame Street is the REAL educational program not this imitation rip off PBS program that's devoid of educational content being shown today.

Stop letting your children watch the current Sesame Street episodes. They're more Elmo's World than Sesame Street, anyway. Buy these DVD's and see what Jim Henson's dream was really about. The people of SS had equal time with the puppets and they're were more kids and more diversity and just more fun! My 3 year old son would much rather watch the classic episodes over the ones shown on PBS now. Thank you Sesame Street for releasing this series. We look forward to more down the line!

There isn't much more for me to add that hasn't been written here already. This is a great set of wonderful skits/scenes/scenarios that anyone that grew up on Sesame Street in the 70's is going to instantly bond with. I can't tell you how many times I yelled, "Oh! I remember this one!" throughout my many viewings. Sadly, my many viewings prompted me to wonder where other skits were and why they weren't included, with the hope that a Vol 2 was really in the works and would show even more of these wonderful shows.
My one frustration is in the actual episodes and the repetitiveness of the skits. I think D, 2, and 3 sponsor almost every episode in this set, meaning that you see some of the same skits over and over. If that is what was in those episodes, so be it. But we could have at least had W, R, or L sponsor some...

Eventhough I remember the sesame street episodes from the 80's (born 1980) there are still a lot of clips that I remember. And although it's really a collection for the old school folks, my 2 year old daughter enjoys most of the musical clips too. She already sings "c is for cookie" and "dee dee dee".
If you loved the old sesame street show and want the collection for yourself def get it, and if you have a small child make sure you're with them so you can explain that the count isn't really scary and it's not nice to yell at rupunzel just because she can't understand you.

If you watched the show as a kid anytime before the 90's , you'll love it. It has the great humor that fits not only children but adults as well. (wasn't that the point after all?) Loved it. Can't wait for the next few dvds.
