Season 5

Sesame Street (1969) returns for Season 5 — 130 episodes to watch online on iFILM. The familiar inner-city block, friendly Muppets, and plain little lessons for the youngest viewers.

Count von Count counts even in his sleep, Sam the Robot puzzles out what "near" and "far" mean, and Big Bird tells both the shortest and the longest story ever told. Cookie Monster's cousin, the Apple Monster, swings by for a visit. A big chunk of the season is winter: heavy snow buries the street, Grover builds a snow friend, Maria gets ready to ski, everyone shovels, and Big Bird tries to mail a snowball. There's a crossover, too, when the cast of The Electric Company stops in.

The season runs on small moments and repetition — that's how the little ones lock in letters, numbers and words. Warm, easygoing, never preachy. Good for preschoolers and anyone fond of classic Muppets. Stream Sesame Street Season 5 online on iFILM.
