Sesame Street has significantly broadened its accessibility by partnering with YouTube to offer a vast digital library of over 100 full episodes for free.

This includes new YouTube Shorts starring the Muppets and curated compilations of one to two hours, focusing on themes such as STEM, friendship, and animals.
