Adding the documentary to my watchlist. And thank you for this heartfelt homage to Sesame Street! I hope it's around forever for future generations of kiddos and grownups alike.

I'm a child of the same trio, plus perhaps Monty Python (who must have been an influence for Adams, right?). I'll add this documentary to the list. I'm curious about what the politics were like to get a show like this on the air?

The politics were very different from today, the documentary makes that very clear. Our government was far more in favor of helping children thrive, in the late 60s/early 70s. I believe Reaganism caused a domino effect, for the worse.
