Sesame Street and other shows on PBS have been scrutinized in recent years as government officials have been trying to decide on how much funding they should actually receive from the federal government. One Republican presidential candidate, Mitt Romney, suggested that Sesame Street and other PBS shows should be paid for by advertisements, like the show on major networks. No matter what our political affiliations, the state of the economy and the nation debt has made in almost certain that advertisements on PBS shows are coming soon. Although there are not advertisements that air during the Sesame Street, corporate sponsors are mentioned at the beginning and the end of each show. Local PBS stations also mention their local sponsors at the beginning and end of each show.
Corporations and individuals have had to make changes to effectively manage their money and it would be no surprise if Sesame Street and some other PBS program will have to make some additional changes to keep afloat and made available to another generation of preschoolers.

Sesame Street with the use of their Muppets have be reaching out to military families to help them as they deal with the changes that being deployed can bring to a family. Not only do the topics that Sesame Street cover concern deployment, but they also talk about the changes to the family as moms and dads come home from being deployed. Sesame Street Muppets are shown to experience some of the same changes that children must face. Elmo, with the help of his Sesame Street friends, has to adjust once his dad has to go away and serve in the military. Rosita must also deal with change that happens when her fathered is injured and must now use a wheelchair. These resources for children will continue to be available.

Nicole Kidman made a visit to the Sesame Street set to film a piece with Oscar the Grouch about being stubborn. Of course, we know that if anyone knows about being stubborn it would be Oscar. Not to miss the chance, Kidman brought her almost 3 year-old daughter, Sunday Rose, to set so she could see some of favorite Sesame Street characters. Sad to say, Oscar was not on the list that includes Zoe, Abby Cadabby, and Elmo as the favorite. Although he failed to make Sunday Rose’s top list of Sesame Street characters, Sunday Rose did ask about him: she wanted to know he did actually me.

Disney’s release of “The Muppets” this fall has proven to be a box office success. After several decades the Muppets have continued to entertain and draw a large audience. Critics have also seen the merit of the Muppets in present day. “The Muppets” has garnered 4 Critics’ Choice Award Nominations: 3 for the Best song for the “Life’s a Happy Song,” “Man or Muppet,” and “Pictures in My Head,” the fourth for Best Comedy. In a movie about Muppets and men it would seem fitting that the Muppets would join in on the singing on some of the soundtrack songs of the movie. Kermit, Walter, and the other Muppets join in singing on these nominated songs.
