Muppets of Sesame Street: Tyler Bunch, Peter Linz, Joey Mazzarino, Noel MacNeal, Carmen Osbahr, Matt Vogel.Writers: Joey Mazzarino, Judy Freudberg, Belinda Ward.Directed by Joey Mazzarino and Matt Vogel.Producers: April Chadderon, Jeremy Slutskin, Andreas Frisch.In the online releases and syndicated airings of season 39 (such as Sprout), the segments were cut and typically replaced with either a ' Global Grover' or ' Hero Guy' sketch.Murray and Ovejita explore around the zoo. The format has been replicated internationally as ' Tuktuki's Journey' (in Bangladesh), ' The Misadventures of Grover and Toto' (in India), and ' The Ubuntu Adventures with Elmo & Zuzu' (in South Africa). The segment was included in some episodes of the international package series 3, 2, 1 ¡Vamos! (with a unique Spanish title card). In Season 45, the segments began showcasing non-school locations. In Season 44, the segment was brought back through the tune-in segments, featuring new school visitations and repurposed versions of archived editions. Though the segment stopped airing after Season 41, the format was incorporated into the tune in segments such as ' Murray's Science Experiments' in Season 42 and ' The People in Your Neighborhood' in season 43. The segment's theme song was written by Judy Freudberg, Joey Mazzarino, Bill Sherman and Belinda Ward. The segments were directed by Joey Mazzarino and Matt Vogel (who directed the 'Art School', 'Soccer School', 'Ice Skating School' and 'Baseball School' segments ). The rest of the segment involves Murray asking questions and learning about what happens at the school, interacting with the children and teachers, and trying out the activities. Also during season 40, the guessing game portion of the segment is replaced with a shorter intro that leads them straight to the school.ĭuring the segments, Ovejita tries to give hints to Murray as to what school they are going to visit and Murray always insists that the answer is on the tip of his tongue. While the sketch appeared in every episode in Season 39, beginning in the following season, it alternated with Bert and Ernie's Great Adventures. The theme song was occasionally shortened, omitting the last verse. It features a theme song which is a Latin-flavored rap variation on the classic nursery rhyme ' Mary Had a Little Lamb', sung by Lin-Manuel Miranda. The segment, initially presented as a six and a half minute sketch, stars Murray Monster and a purple lamb named Ovejita who only speaks Spanish. In 2009, Lin played Freddie Flapman, a real estate agent who tries to convince Big Bird to move away from Sesame Street and buy property in a variety of different habitats in a street story that has basically the exact same plot as the first and more excellent Sesame Street movie, Follow that Bird, with Freddie Flapman as the Miss Finch analogue but with arguably more selfish motives.Murray Has a Little Lamb is a recurring Sesame Street segment that debuted in Season 39. In any case, I can’t help but notice that a lot of (past) Hamilton cast members also have connections to Sesame Street, so I thought I’d explore that today. Maybe I’ll do that later, or maybe I’ll do that next year.

But I’m not really organized, unfortunately plus, I still have two jobs. So, if I had been really organized, I would have done a whole week-long thing of Hamilton-related posts pertaining to the musical. January 11th was Alexander Hamilton’s birthday (or it might be more accurate to call it the anniversary of his birth), while January 16th was Lin-Manuel Miranda’s birthday (he being the one who wrote the play and originated the role of Hamilton). I know I’ve been subtle about it (har, har) but if you pay close attention, you’ll notice that I’m a big fan of Hamilton, both the musical and the man whose life inspired it.
