‘Sesame Street’ Moves into New Netflix Neighborhood with Official Trailer & First-Look Pics

The reimagined 56th season of Sesame Street is ready to debut through its new streaming home on Netflix on Monday, November 10. The official trailer and a flurry of fuzzy first-look images were revealed today.

With a new format, Sesame Street (4 x 30′) will invite children to play along in new ways, bring viewers inside the world’s most famous brownstone for the first time, and feature celebrity guests, original music, engaging animation (including the new animated segment 123 Sesame) and, as always, lots of laughter. Each episode will feature interactive, immersive and visually engaging 11-minute stories that put young viewers at the center of the action.

Episodes will drop in three volumes, and the feature guest appearance in the first volume is professional race car driver and NASCAR champion Bubba Wallace. Throughout the season, Sesame Street friends will explore compassion, kindness, and social problem-solving in ways little ones can relate to — whether it’s learning to take turns, cheering up a friend, or finding ways to solve problems together.

“Season 56 reimagines Sesame Street, inviting children into the action and bringing them hand-in-hand through high-stakes stories, powerful learning moments and laugh-out-loud surprises,” said executive producer Sal Perez. “And, as always, Sesame Street’s curriculum is designed to meet children’s most pressing needs — so our focus this season is on kindness and compassion, something we can all use more of today.”

Produced by Sesame Workshop, Sesame Street S56 is executive produced by Perez, and produced by head writer Halcyon Person, an Emmy, Humanitas and NAACP Award-nominated TV creator who’s worked as a writer, director and producer for everything from preschool to late night. She was the head writer and co-executive producer of Karma’s World (2021) and Dee & Friends in Oz (2024), both on Netflix.

Sesame Street launched on November 10, 1969 and for the first time, the new reimagined season will launch on Netflix in 30+ languages offering even more options globally for fans to enjoy the beloved show.
