Sesamstraße

1973

Sesamstraße ist der Titel einer der erfolgreichsten Fernsehserien für Kinder im Vorschulalter. Die halbstündigen Folgen setzen sich aus sechs bis zehn kleineren, meist thematisch voneinander unabhängigen Einzelbeiträgen zusammen, die eine inhaltlich zusammenhängende Rahmenhandlung unterbrechen. Neben sketchartigen oder lehrreichen Puppendialogen („Ein Kreis ist rund.“, „So bin ich nah, jetzt bin ich fern“), Trickfilmen und Kinderliedern gibt es oft auch Realfilmbeiträge über einfache Situationen aus dem Kinderalltag oder über die Herstellung eines Produkts. Die Sesamstraße wird dienstags bis freitags um 6:55 Uhr im NDR Fernsehen, montags bis samstags um 8:30 Uhr im KI.KA und sonntags um 7:15 Uhr im Ersten ausgestrahlt. Quelle: Wikipedia

The Muppet Show

1976

The Muppet Show is a British-American television program produced by puppeteer Jim Henson and featuring Muppets. After two pilot episodes were produced in 1974 and 1975, the show premiered on September 5, 1976, and five series were produced until March 15, 1981, lasting 120 episodes. The program shows a vaudeville- or music hall-style song-and-dance variety show, as well as glimpses behind the scenes of such a show. Kermit the Frog stars as a showrunner who tries to keep control of the antics of the other Muppet characters (and his temper), as well as keep the guest stars happy. The show was known for outrageous physical slapstick, sometimes absurdist comedy, and humorous parodies. Each episode also featured a human guest star. As the show's popularity rose, many celebrities were eager to perform with the Muppets on television and in film.

Through the hole and down the tunnel, hidden from everyday reality, are brightly lit caves filled with wonderful creatures. This land, bound together by Magic, is called Fraggle Rock. The most notable of the creatures who inhabit this beautiful place are the Fraggles. Fraggles are furry, have tails, and come in all sorts of colors. The Fraggles spend their days laughing, splashing, running, singing, playing games, and telling jokes. They live by a simple care-free code.

Muppet Babies

1984

Muppet Babies was a very successful cartoon series in its own right. This show basically featured Jim Henson's famous Muppets as babies. Each episode, each of the Muppet Babies had adventures that their imaginations take them on. Often however, their imaginations would sometimes get the better of them, all for comic effect. The featured Muppets were Baby Kermit, Piggy, Fozzie, Gonzo, Rowlf, Animal, Scooter, and a new character, Skeeter, Scooter's look-alike sister. Occasionally they had visits from Baby Bunsen and Beaker, and even Statler and Waldorf came to visit, and later we see a recurring appearance by a "baby" version of Bean Bunny from Tale of the Bunny Picnic. The moral glue that held these Muppets together was Nanny (voiced by Barbara Billingsley of Leave it to Beaver fame), a character whose body was only shown from the waist down and we all remember the green striped socks. The one thing that made the Muppet Babies memorable were not the Muppets themselves, but the
