Sesame Street is like a fossil record or tree cross section for attention span in television. Some of the older Sesame Street clips like the one about milk, are trippy long format art pieces. Very very different than the quick cuts / short segments that happen today. Whether that’s good or bad is up to you. I suspect the old style simply wouldn’t compete for viewers today.

A bonus: Stevie Wonder playing Superstition on Sesame Street might be my favorite “music video” of all time. https://youtu.be/_ul7X5js1vE
