Crave gets rights to stream recent 'Sesame Street' episodes
It hasn't been the easiest to find the latest episodes of Sesame Street in the country. We had to wait for it to show up on PBS. But the Bell Media-owned Crave secured rights to bring the educational children's show to the streaming service starting Friday. Crave will roll out all 35 episodes of season 51, which debuted on HBO Max in late 2020 in the US and through the Public Broadcasting Service last year.
And then, in September, it will add 35 episodes from season 52, which is now rolling out in the US through HBO Max. This latest season introduces Ji-Young, the first Asian-American muppet in the show's canon.
In the coming months, you can expect other Sesame Street specials showing up on the service alongside some of its "classics" section, including 20 memorable past episodes with celebrity guests, Robin Williams, James Earl Jones, and Canada's Ryan Reynolds.
Crave has a long-standing partnership with WarnerMedia, bringing in these TV and film programming from the studio. The recent announcement was it'll bring Hollywood hit The Batman to the service on Monday.
