Sesame Street Now Is On HBO

18 Apr

In 1970, Sesame Street had its’ premiere in Prime Time on NBC. From there, it became a mainstay of PBS Stations in the USA.

Now, it’s on Home Box Office or HBO. Forty Six Years is a Long Time for a Children’s Show.

But then, Cable is no longer the exclusive home of HBO. The same can be said of Showtime. Both are are on Satellite Services. And in the age of the World Wide Web, one can watch on Big Box Computer, a Laptop, a Tablet or a Smartphone.

Suddenly, there is a fascination with the Small Screen. And one can carry this Small Screen in one’s pocket. There’s no need for a Big Box Television & one can view on demand, without being confined to any edifice.

I GOT HBO(But No Television).

17 Apr

I’ve Got HBO!
But I don’t own a Big Screen Television. Thirty Years Ago, if I didn’t own a Colour TV, for me to brag that I have HBO, would be a Ticket to “The Funny FARM.”

But, now Smartphones are our communications centres. And they can do what a big box computer can do. I neither need a Television nor Radio, but I do have The Web.

Hence, I can watch “Seinfeld” on Hulu or “Sesame Street” on HBO, without Cable or Satellite, ditto Major League Baseball.

Yadda, Yadda!
