It’s hard to ask for much more than a doc that captures creatives thoughtfully sneaking the civil revolution as well as basic education into children’s TV and includes a Muppets blooper reel.
Variety
Watching Street Gang is a largely joyous experience, but there's also something heartbreaking about it.

TIME Magazine
Despite the omissions, Street Gang is exactly the kind of tribute one would want for the series -- a rare, delightful trip down memory lane that also serves as an education, just as any episode of Sesame Street should.

Product Description:
Documentarian Marilyn Agrelo investigates one of the longest-running children's programs in American television history. Originally airing in 1969, Agrelo charts the origins of Sesame Street and its subsequent influence on both children's programming and its role in the television industry as a whole. Candid interviews with the program's creators, its creative team, and the consulting educators offer new perspectives on the significance of crafting quality educational television for children. Based on the book by Michael Davis.
