@mstatz  I couldn't agree more. WHY did they have to change it? A lot of creative direction was lost with Jim Henson's passing, but the CTW/Sesame Workshop powers-that-be also made a conscious decision to confine their target audience to the pre-school & kindergarten demographic. When I watched (around the same era as you) there was material of interest right up to the ages of 9 or 10.

I believe Will Lee died in 1982 or 1983, but who's counting?

Mr Hooper was the shopkeeper's name. When I watched in the late 70s and early 80s there was also Gordon (he was bald, maybe that is who you mean?) and Luis. Oh and some chick with cornrows--Olivia, I think.

Who were  the main Adults in Sesame street during the 70's? I remember Maria, Bob and Susan and the old shopkeeper..what was his name? Was david the brother with big eyes and side-burns..what was the tall baldheaded bother called? Please please tell me..These are wonderful childhood memories!!!

I miss the feeling of the older episodes. I haven't really watched TV in the last 8 years, but already by around 2000 I felt it had lost the basic, real, "common denominator" neighborhood feeling that was so great in the past. I know Elmo has to check his email for the show to keep current, but it'd be nice to see more kids on the playground and people waiting for the bus...and yeah, as a hippie at heart I wouldn't mind seeing someone bike to Hooper's store in bellbottom jeans again either! ;)

I wouldn't go so far as to say it's "bad" (since it's done with a tremendous amount of research and care as always), but let's just say that if it had always been the way it is now, I wouldn't still be interested in it as an adult.

Most of what made it interesting to an adult audience is pretty much out the window now. Can't complain too much since its aim is to educate children, but I still miss the hell out of the old show.

I was born in 1968, so I was one year old when Sesame Street first came out. I remember the show in the early to mid 70's. Those were the best years of Sesame Street. The show is SO different and SO bad now compared to the way it was.

mstaz, thank you for these classic segments from Sesame Street. I wish I was born in the seventies. I am sixteen and I love Sesame Street! It was more wicked in the past. Thanks a million, mstaz!
