MonstruosSupersanos

Super Healthy Monsters is a Sesame Street mini-series that debuted in June 2012. The 5 to 7-minute series focuses on activities and foods that keep one healthy. Sesame Workshop produced 26 episodes in English, which initially aired dubbed in Spain on Antena 3 as a Barrio Sésamo mini-series called "Monstruos Supersanos."

Each episode featured framing scenes starring Elmo, followed by newly produced Muppet sketches and on-location film pieces (used only in the airings in Spain). The series features main Sesame Street characters Elmo, Grover, Cookie Monster, Rosita, Ernie, Bert, Abby Cadabby and new Muppet characters Dr. Ruster and Pilar.

Excerpts from each episode were available on the Antena 3 webpage, as well as a series of videos with Elmo and Spanish celebrities, such as singer David Bustamante, host Susanna Griso, chef Ferran Adrià, and soccer player Gerard Piqué.
