Sesame Street: Elmos Magic Numbers

ON JULY 10, 2012

"Up All Night" Star Will Arnett Makes Special Guest Appearance in This Hilarious
New DVD That Promotes Math



BURBANK, CA (May 9, 2012) - Add some learning fun and multiply the laughs when Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit educational organization behind Sesame Street, and Warner Home Video (WHV) release Sesame Street: Elmos Magic Numbers on DVD on July 10, 2012 for $12.99 SRP. Join Elmo, Big Bird, Zoe and Rosita as they learn the importance behind counting, numbers and early math skills. Sesame Street: Elmos Magic Numbers contains two full-length Sesame Street episodes with over two hours of content including bonus footage, celebrity appearances and spoofs!

In Sesame Street: Elmos Magic Numbers, Will Arnett (Arrested Development, Up All Night) plays Max the Magician and visits Sesame Street to put on a spectacular magic show for Elmo and his friends. As the crowd watches in amazement, Chris points out that Max's magic is actually based on match concepts that everyone can learn. Each hilarious lesson highlights a different aspect of the subject, including addition and subtraction. The episode also includes favorite segments such as "Elmo's World," "Murray Had A Little Lamb" and "Bert and Ernie's Great Adventures."

The second Sesame Street episode "Hat Day" features Elmo and Zoe's wacky contest to see who can wear the most hats! During this episode, kids are encouraged to count, estimate and use multiples as they seek to crown a winner of the challenge. Parents can also get in on the action during a hilarious, counting-themed spoof of NBC's hit show 30 Rock entitled "30 Rocks." A 15-minute extra of "Elmo's World" about hats is also included on the DVD. As an added bonus, each unit contains a special offer from the Personalized Elmo & Friends CD. Kids will delight in hearing their name spoken and sung by Elmo in three free customized tracks.[1]

"Sesame Street: Elmos Magic Numbers is the perfect addition to any family's summer schedule," said Jeff Brown, WHV Executive Vice President and GM of Non-Theatrical Franchise. "Even though kids are out of school, it doesn't mean they need to stop learning. Elmo and his friends will keep kids entertained and educated while having fun in the process."

Now in its 42nd season, Sesame Street is the longest-running program in children's television. The series has received more Emmy awards than any other show in television history (138), as well as a Lifetime Achievement Emmy Award honoring the 40th year.
