This one-hour musical follows the adventures of Big Bird, Snuffy, Cookie Monster, and the rest of the Sesame Street gang as they find themselves accidentally locked in the Metropolitan Museum overnight.
Sesame Street specials are always wonderful, but this hour long movie, filmed when Sesame Street was in its prime, is just spectacular. It remains one of my favorite ways to cheer myself up (I'm 27). When Big Bird wanders off near closing time to meet Snuffleupagus, and the rest of the Sesame Street monsters and humans try frantically to find him, they all get locked overnight in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The rest of the video, which amounts to the bulk of the story, revolves around three main storylines: 1.) everyone trying to find Big Bird while avoiding the suspicious but clueless mustachio-ed museum security guard, 2.) everyone discovering and enjoying the museum in the process, and 3.) Big Bird and Snuffleupagus helping a little Egyptian boy named Sahu prove his inner worth in a yearly "test", so that the god Osiris will let him join his parents as stars in the sky. There is enough of a storyline to ensnare even those with the shortest of attention spans, children and adults alike, and quite a bit of comic relief to lighten the way. Watching straight-arrow Bob as he runs around trying to keep Cookie Monster from scarfing down the Still Lives, while a group of dancing Monster-ettes sings the doo-wop title tune: "Don't eat the pictures, no, no, no!", is particularly amusing; as are the scenes where Sahu's invisible cat, who still meows audibly, befuddles that poor hapless security guard. The many many shots of the Museum interior are gorgeous, and a magical exposure/introduction to art and museums, in particular the paintings, sculpture, and medieval artifacts of the Met. The video of course has a happy ending, but one that will bring tears to your eyes.Read more ›

These DVDs are extremely educational and was a very good buy, however, there is too much Elmo. When I saw the 1969 in brackets, I was expecting actual episodes from that time onwards. You know, with Mr. Hooper and Bob etc. There are too few of these. The old introductory music wasn't there either. It was a kill joy for me who grew up on Sesame Street in the 70s in the Caribbean but all in all it was still an excellent buy because my children absolutley love them and they are the ones who they are really for. I would definitely recommend them to everyone, especially in the UK because they don't show Sesame Street here, only rubbish like Teletubbies where one learns to say, "Uh oh." And nothing else. So guys, buy this box set!!

I wish CTV would consider reissuing "Sesame Street" as a chronological series, starting with "Season One," and working their way to the present... I would love to see the old episodes as they were originally broadcast, not with a few select bits chopped up into the new, modern mix. The old shows were so wonderful... and that awful, whiny Elmo was nowhere to be seen!

Because it certainly desrves it. Unlike today's emphasis on dumbing down programing ala Barney, this video tape was made in a time when children were actually respected and given enormous respect. Granted some of the acting seems weird because of the programing shift, but I seriously doubt that it would scare today's little kids. I watched it as a little girl, and keep hoping that it will be released. One of the unexpected side effects of this non-condescending treatment is that young adults such as myself still fondly remember this movie and are not at all bored by the pace. Whatever your chronological age, you will find this program timeless in it's appeal and beloved by all. That is what indicates real staying power, not how many toys one can invent, market and make profit from.

Both of these video titles are so fun and educational! Do the Alphabet features Baby Bear in a hurry to learn his ABCs (in order to avoid being teased by Goldilocks!)...Big Bird helps him with his method to learn the alphabet, which includes songs, relaxation exercises and an appearance by Billy Joel, too! My toddler loves to dance with the kids and has even picked up a few letters along the way! 1-2-3 Count With Me is one of my toddler's favorite videos -- it features Ernie, who helps hotel workers (which include the hilarious Benny the Bunny) discover how useful numbers can be! Numbers are showcased either through a fun song or a skit with Benny -- both are innovative ways to learn. Both of these videos are entertaining to toddlers (and their parents, too!) and will encourage them to watch and learn again and again.

My son is 23 months old and LOVES Oscar the Grouch. I searched through the Sesame Street videos to find one in which Oscar was the primary character (my son also really likes Telly monster)- and this one features both. The "movies" that are reviewed by Oscar and Telly are not some of 'Sesame Street's' greatest, but on the whole, it's a cute video, and good for some laughs from the little people.

These videos are a great transition from the Sesame Street characters of America to the Rohov Sesame characters of Israel. The inclusion of adult stars such as Yitzhoq Perlmann and Bonnie Franklin make this enjoyable for older students and adults as well as pre-schoolers. The large use of humor makes the tape times seem to pass very quickly. A fine way to introduce Israeli culture especially,Israeli Arab culture which is often overlooked in studies of Israel.
