Storyline
Daily half-hour series airing on the Noggin network, aimed at preschool-age children and hosted by "Sesame Street" characters Ernie, Bert, Grover and Prairie Dawn. Each show was said to mimic a child's "playdate"; newly-created segments were interspersed with classic "Sesame Street" segments, with the Muppet hosts encouraging the young viewers to participate. Children were also invited to send in their own drawings, videos, etc., that were featured on the show. Written by Brian Rathjen <briguy_52732@yahoo.com>
I found this show to be better than the modern episodes of sesame street. I'm not kidding. With Elmo now the main character, and characters like Big bird, cookie monster, grover, and Oscar the grouch all playing second fiddle, Play with me sesame feels like it was created by people who loved the original sesame street and didn't like the way it is now.
However, this version of the show is only meant to appeal to really young children, regardless, i find it to be educational for that age level, even with topics that older kids could learn something - One of the segments on the show I saw was about Harry Monster's insides, with Kermit the frog (or Kermit De Frog, as he calls himself) Pointing out the various parts.
This spin off is worthy of a positive review, so thats what i give it. a 7 out of 10.
