The article lost me when they referred their current format to a "magazine style" I did not know this is what they considered it. Of course I haven't really seen it since the 80s

This new article on ToughPigs.com clarifies some things (for me, anyway) like that the show will still be 30 minutes long and not expanding to an hour. toughpigs.com/sesame-format-change/

I’m very curious about this reimagining now, judging by this preview on Max! (I’m sure it’s just an honest mistake but that rating made me literally LOL.)

Me" What the hell is magazine style" Basically another way of describing a segments show but it conveys info so, like, how a lot of kids shows back in the day would have different segments that they might go back to and stuff like a letters segment or a competition to enter, stuff like that.

They called said segments "the commercials" at one point, no?

I did like the 20th Anniversary special, and yes, that's where I think I got the commercials thing from.
I recorded it first time it aired, and watched it like every other day. I was obsessed with the Sesames from other countries.
