Great Hera! Sesame Street Finds a New Home on Netflix: Is Cookie Monster Going to Binge-Watch?

By Hera's Sandals Sesame Street Needed a Savior!

Greetings mortals! Your friendly neighborhood Wonder Woman here reporting on a matter of utmost importance: the future of education! Yes even superheroes like me recognize the power of a good lesson especially when delivered by fuzzy lovable monsters. It seems our friends on Sesame Street were facing a bit of a… well let's just say their finances were in dire straits. It was almost enough to make me trade in my Lasso of Truth for a Lasso of… Fundraising! But fear not for Netflix has swooped in like a golden eagle to save the day!

Netflix and Chill(dren): A Match Made in Themyscira?

Netflix that modern day Oracle of Delphi for entertainment has struck a deal to stream the next three seasons of Sesame Street along with a treasure trove of past episodes. They will have exclusive global premiere streaming rights to new episodes of seasons 56 through 58 Netflix will also gain rights to 90 hours of past episodes and will be able to develop video games for both "Sesame Street" and its spin off series "Sesame Street Mecha Builders." I must say it's a clever move. After all what better way to ensure the future than to invest in the minds of tomorrow? As I always say 'Fighting doesn't make you a hero. Knowing what you're fighting for does.' And clearly Netflix is fighting for adorable educational programming!

PBS: Still Standing Strong Like a True Amazon

Now before you start thinking PBS has been banished to Tartarus fear not! Our public broadcasting champions will still air new episodes on TV and their digital platforms including YouTube. Talk about 'Peace through strength!' This public private partnership ensures that Sesame Street remains accessible to all regardless of their ability to subscribe to yet another streaming service. Plus PBS Kids' YouTube channel is a veritable goldmine of free content. Even *I* sneak a peek at their 'Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood' sometimes don't tell anyone!

Warner Bros. Discovery: A Lasso of Truth Moment

Ah Warner Bros. Discovery. It appears they've decided to focus on other… *ahem*… priorities. Word on the street (no pun intended) is that they've been cutting back on children's content. It reminds me of Ares trying to convince me that war is the only way. Some folks just can't see the value of kindness and education! But I digress. It's their loss and Sesame Street's gain! As my mother Queen Hippolyta always says 'You are stronger than you believe; you have greater powers than you know.'

Elmo's New Groove: Reimagined and Ready to Rumble!

But wait there's more! The new season promises to be reimagined with fresh segments and format changes. Apparently they're focusing on shorter 11 minute stories with more character driven humor. Which I'm sure will translate into more merchandising opportunities. But hey a girl's gotta accessorize right? I can only hope that this means more empowering female characters and fewer lessons on the benefits of being a doormat. After all 'I can save today; you can save the world!'

A Victory for Truth Justice and the American Way... er Sesame Street!

So there you have it my friends! Sesame Street has a bright future ahead thanks to the combined efforts of Netflix and PBS. Let us raise a glass (of carrot juice perhaps?) to the power of education the importance of public broadcasting and the enduring appeal of a certain blue cookie obsessed monster. As I always say 'Only love can truly save the world.' And maybe a few catchy songs and educational segments too. Until next time keep fighting for what you believe in and remember: kindness is a superpower!
