Chris and Cookie Monster in the new, retro-designed Hooper's Store.
Behind-the-scenes filming of an episode for the season
Sesame Street's 46th season is expected to air in fall 2015.[1]
Season overview
Music Director Bill Sherman revealed at the "On The Street Where You Learn" panel at Lincoln Center in January 2015 that a new version of the "Sesame Street Theme" would debut this season.
The season also introduces new changes to the set in an effort to get viewers to associate the Muppet characters with locals, designed by David Gallo.[1] Changes include:
- Elmo's room is now located in the first floor cornerstone of 123 Sesame Street.
- Cookie Monster takes up new residence above Hooper's Store, which is given complete facelift to resemble its initial design.
- Big Bird's nest area is no longer hidden by used doors and is now sitting within a small tree.
- Oscar's trash can is relocated to the front of 123 Sesame Street.
- An expanded garden area is added in the arbor, maintained by Abby Cadabby.
- Other additions include a community center in the carriage house (with rooftop sitting area) and a Newsstand.
Beginning this season, Stephanie D'Abruzzo takes over the role of Prairie Dawn from Fran Brill, who retired the previous fall.[2] Jennifer Barnhart will take over the role of Zoe.[3]
Episodes include Elmo and Abby posing as "Boo-Boo Busters"[4] and a special Mothers Day episode[5]
Production
Initial segments for the season were taped in early February 2015,[2] with primary filming starting in April.[6] Word of the Day and other celebrity segments began filming in Los Angeles the week of March 30, 2015.[7]
Guest stars
Celebrity guests for the season will include Fifth Harmony, Gwen Stefani, Gina Rodriguez, Tracee Ellis Ross, Ne-Yo, Sara Bareilles, Aloe Blacc, Nick Jonas, and Alan Cumming.[7]
