Sesam76

1976

Sesam was the first Swedish version of Sesame Street, a dub which first aired in 1976. The show consisted entirely of the American Muppet inserts and animated and film segments (no street scenes). The theme song was a Swedish translation of the "Sesame Street Theme" over localized footage of children playing in a field and on a playground, before being called in by their father to watch Sesam. Twenty six episodes aired.

In 1981, Sweden started their own full co-production using the name Svenska Sesam.

A new batch of Open Sesame episodes were dubbed and shown on Sveriges Television from 1996 to 1998, under the same name, including newer characters such as Elmo.
