	The Business Innovation Insider: Sesame Street is sticky
		I came across this classic Sesame Street video, in which two yip-yips attempt to figure out a computer, while tracking down some data on the Computing Research Policy blog.
		The Muppets, then, were only seen with other Muppets, and the scenes filmed on Sesame Street itself involved only real adults and children.
		What Palmer found out in Philadelphia, though, was that as soon as they switched to the street scenes, the kids lost all interest.

	History of Sesame Street - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sesame Street's format as established in 1969 would remain virtually unchanged for decades: live-action street scenes (sometimes following a minor plotline) would alternate with Muppet comedy skits, musical numbers and short film segments.
		Many of the Muppet scenes and films were created so that they could be replayed over and over (at least one segment would be repeated within any given episode); some of the segments made in 1969 would continue to be rebroadcast into the 1990s until they were finally retired.
		Thus they believe that this is when Sesame Street jumped the shark.
