"Once the episodes are available, "YouTube will have the largest digital library of Sesame Street content," Sesame Workshop says. YouTube is already has a wealth of popular content focused toward kids, including big channels like Cocomelon (which is getting a theatrical film in 2027) and Ms. Rachel (who also has a deal with Netflix). The addition of the classic Sesame Street episodes could give parents another educational option if their kids want to watch something on the platform."
"Speaking of Netflix, new episodes of Sesame Street will debut on the service starting November 10th. Season 56 will have "fresh format changes" including a focus on "one 11-minute story" per episode, Netflix says. The new episodes will also be available "same day-and-date in the US on PBS stations and PBS KIDS digital platforms." Last year, Warner Bros. Discovery chose not to renew its deal with Sesame Workshop to air new Sesame Street episodes on the streaming service now known (once again) as HBO Max."
YouTube will add hundreds of full classic Sesame Street episodes beginning January 2026, creating the largest digital library of Sesame Street content. YouTube already hosts popular children-focused channels such as Cocomelon and Ms. Rachel, and the classic episodes could provide parents with another educational viewing option. New episodes of Sesame Street will premiere on Netflix starting November 10, with Season 56 adopting fresh format changes that focus on one 11-minute story per episode. The new episodes will also air same day-and-date on PBS stations and PBS KIDS digital platforms. Warner Bros. Discovery did not renew its deal to air new episodes on HBO Max.
