Sesame Street Mecha Builders coming to HBO Max and Cartoon Network.
Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit organization behind Sesame Street, announced Mecha Builders. The first of many new Sesame Workshop originals for WarnerMedia’s Cartoonito preschool programming block. Mecha Builders will debut on HBO Max and Cartoon Network in early May.
Sesame Street Mecha Builders reimagines Elmo, Cookie Monster, and Abby Cadabby as robot heroes in training. They use their STEM superpowers to solve wacky, larger-than-life problems. This series will help older preschoolers practice foundational critical thinking skills while laughing with their Sesame Street friends. The first five episodes will air on Cartoonito on Cartoon Network on Monday, May 9, hitting HBO Max the following day.
More animated series and specials are also on the way. The additional shows include the family miniseries Charlotte’s Web, Bea’s Block, and a Sesame Street-themed reimagining of The Nutcracker.
Bea’s Block will introduce viewers to a new world where vibrant and diverse wooden block characters–Bea and her friends–tumble, stack, and roll their way through kindness-filled adventures. Both series will include fully integrated educational curricula, engaging music, and a lot of heart. It will be everything parents expect from the makers of Sesame Street.
Looking ahead, Sesame Street: The Nutcracker is an animated special that follows Elmo and his new puppy, Tango, on a fantastical holiday adventure. This imaginative special will populate the beloved holiday story with kids’ favorite characters, blending new and classic music for all ages to enjoy. The special will premiere during the 2022 holiday season. In addition, production on Charlotte’s Web, an animated family miniseries based on the classic children’s book by E.B. White, will begin in the coming weeks.
