Sesame Street


Sesame Street has done an amazing job at reinventing itself beyond the typical kids' show. I think they realise that beyond the children, there is an increasing market of teenagers and young adults who have watched Sesame Street as a kid, and still love the characters. The content that is posted is consistently relevant, child-friendly, yet not so kiddy that I cannot enjoy it as a 22-year-old.

It's amazing how a children's show can educate kids beyond the alphabet, teaching them current affairs such as the American mid-term elections, and also about the things around them, such as this video about Apple's App Store. Not to mention the myriad of videos made based on popular culture such as the Old Spice commercial, Katy Perry, and more recently, Willow Smith's I Whip My Hair Back and Forth.

Awesome!
