Sandra Oh introduces the Sesame Street gang and gives a heartfelt description of the awe and wonder she experienced being on the show. Can you imagine being on Sesame Street? The celebrity guest stars are so lucky! She does a great job expressing how important Sesame Street is to all of us.

Next up is an awesome montage of clips from 40 years of Sesame Street. Including some of my personal favorites from the 70s like rubber ducky, Herry monster and Jon Jon, the chef with the cakes stumbling down the stairs and the counting pinball song.

It also has a tearjerker with Susan helping Big Bird understand Mr. Hooper has passed away that makes you remember how valuable the lessons from Sesame Street are and how well they present them for children.

The montage is followed by a number of the cast members (Big Bird, Elmo, Cookie Monster, Gordon, Bob, Maria, Luis, Abby Caddaby, Dorothy, Zoe, Chris, Telly, and Oscar the Grouch) performing a musical salute to the “people in their daytime TV neighborhood”.

Take a few minutes and enjoy this clip and congratulate Sesame Street on 40 years of helping kids around the world. Truly an inspiration.

Oh … and make sure you watch all the way to the end … Cookie Monster has an important message.
