[

DESCRIPTION: Sesame Workshop (SW), formerly Children's Television Workshop (CTW), is an American non-profit organization which has been responsible for the production of several educational children's programs - including its first and best-known, Sesame Street - that have been televised internationally. Teievision producer Joan Ganz Cooney and foundation executive Lloyd Morrisell developed with the idea to form an organization to produce Sesame Street, a television series which would help children, especially those from low-income families, prepare for school. They spent two years, from 1966 to 1968, researching, developing, and raising money for the new series. Cooney was named as the Workshop's first executive director, which was termed "one of the most important television developments of the decade".
Sesame Street premiered as a series on the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) in the United States during November 1969, and the Workshop was incorporated formally soon afterward, during 1970. Gerald S. Lesser and Edward L. Palmer were hired to perform research for the series, they were responsible for developing a system of planning, production, and evaluation, and the interaction between television producers and educators, later termed the "CTW model". They also hired a staff of producers and writers. After the initial success of Sesame Street, they began to plan for its continued survival, which included procuring additional sources of funding and creating other television series. The early 1980s were a challenging period for the Workshop, difficulty finding audiences for their other productions and a series of bad investments harmed the organization until licensing agreements stabilized its revenues by 1985.
After Sesame Street's initial success, the CTW began to think about its survival beyond the development and first season of the show, since their funding sources were composed of organizations and institutions that tended to start projects, not sustain them. Government funding ended by 1981, so the CTW developed other activities, including unsuccessful ventures into adult programs, the publications of books and music, international co-productions, interactive media and new technologies, licensing arrangements, and programs for preschools. By 2005, income from the CTW's international co-productions of the series was $96 million. By 2008, the Sesame Street Muppets accounted for $15-17 million per year in licensing and merchandising fees. Cooney resigned as CEO during 1990, David Britt was named as her replacement.
On June 5, 2000, the CTW changed its name to Sesame Workshop to better represent its work which included non-television activities, and Gary Knell became CEO. H. Melvin Ming replaced Knell during 2011. During 2014, Ming was succeeded by Jeffrey D. Dunn.

I think they should bring back the retro Children's Television Workshop logo to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Sesame Street. They start the video with each "Sesame Street" cast member saying "The Children's Television Workshop",then the cast from "The Electric Company",then the "CTW Snake" logo,then the one from 1983-1989.

[@april1969simnel]

Aw. I was born in 1969. So I remember seeing Sesame Street and The Electric Company from ~1972 and stopped watching entirely at about the time that the red logo came in, around 1983. Even though I was too old for those shows by 1976, I'd watch them when I wasn't in school because they were entertaining, if you were old enough and pop culturally savvy enough to get the jokes. 3-2-1 Contact had a great theme tune, and that was the last CTW-produced show I actually watched. I was shocked to learn that Sesame Street is a 1/2 hour show on HBO now.
