The first four seasons of Sesamstraße were American episodes dubbed to German. In 1977, a German street set was built for German framing stories: Samson the bear and Tiffy the bird/monster replaced Big Bird (Bibo) as a main character in 1978. WikipediaWikiProject Aircraft.

Other characters that were added later were Uli von Bödefeld, also called Herr von Bödefeld (1978-1988), Finchen the Snail (1980s), Rumpel the Grouch (1989) and Buh the Owl (1989). Rumpelstiltskin is a character in a Fairy tale of the same name that originated in Germany (where he is known as Rumpelstilzchen) Newer additions are Feli Filu the Monster reporter, the comic duo Pferd the Horse and Wolle the sheep, a few grouches (including Grouchella and an Übergrouch) and some Anything Muppets.

Just as in its American counterpart, the German characters have been remodeled over the decades. Most obvious were changes in the first main characters Samson and Tiffy (as can be seen here Tiffy 1978-2000), but also Finchen and Buh have had their fair share of fabric surgery.

In 2005, Tiffy was temporarily replaced with single mom Mona and her pink and furry daughter Lena, due to the puppet being worn out too badly. In 2005 it was sent back to Sesame Workshop for repair. Sesame Workshop, formerly known as the Children's Television Workshop (or CTW) is a non-profit organization behind the production of several educational children's It is expected that the character will be back on the show sometime in the future.

Simson came on as Samson's cousin; it was an older puppet being re-used, with slight changes to his appearance (equipped with a hat, a tie, etc. ).

Leonie Löwenherz (Leonie Lionheart in English), a female lion, was featured for a very short time after the set and puppets were destroyed in a fire. Just like Uli von Bödefeld, she was most likely built by German Fabula Filmpuppen Workshop, and not the Sesame Workshop. Sesame Workshop, formerly known as the Children's Television Workshop (or CTW) is a non-profit organization behind the production of several educational children's After her short-lived Sesame career, she got her own (ALF-like) show called "Leonie Löwenherz" on ARD, featuring herself, her two lion brothers, and a few human characters. ALF is a half-hour American Television Sitcom that originally ran on NBC from 1986 to 1990 and was created by Paul Fusco

Germany's grouchy character is called Rumpel. Rumpelstiltskin is a character in a Fairy tale of the same name that originated in Germany (where he is known as Rumpelstilzchen) He hates rain when others love it, but loves rain when others complain about it. His best friend is a worm named Gustav.

The early characters were built by Kermit Love's puppet company; nowadays, the Muppet Workshop builds the puppets for Sesamstraße. Kermit Ernest Hollingshead Love ( August 7, 1916 &ndash June 21, 2008) was an American Puppeteer, Costume designer and

From 1977 to 1988, the fact that the street stories took place in a studio was never kept a secret. Some parts of the street were simply 'matted in' during an episode, or the characters would ask for help from the studio crew. (One episode about Samson trying to scratch an annoying flea ends with the entire studio crew itching!) The matting also allowed the characters to show up in different locations, like a beach or the roof of the studio.

In 1988, the set and the puppets were destroyed in a fire. They were rebuilt in 1989. A puppet lion named Leonie Löwenherz filled the gap between these seasons.

The new set was centered around a bicycle shop; it also featured Samson's cave and a barrel for Rumpel. The street stories no longer took place in a studio.

Sesamstraße fans categorize the series in the good old classic "Studio Episodes" and the "Bicycle Shop Episodes", in the same way the American fans talk about the "pre-Elmo days".

Like most international co-productions of Sesame Street, fifty percent of each episode consists of dubbed American material. The German episodes feature many early sketches, sometimes even from Sesame Street's first season in 1969. Long gone characters like Schlemihl (Lefty the Salesman), Robert (Guy Smiley), Sherlock Humbug (Sherlock Hemlock), Don Schnulze (Don Music), and Professor Hastig (Professor Hastings) are still big favorite main characters in Germany. Lefty the Salesman (commonly known simply as Lefty) is a Sesame Street character from the 60s and 70s Guy Smiley was a character on Sesame Street who was dubbed "Everybody's Favorite Game Show Host. Sherlock Hemlock (who calls himself "the world's greatest detective" is a former Muppet character on the children's TV show Sesame Street. Composer Don Music was a Muppet character on the Children's television show Sesame Street. Lecturer Professor Hastings was a Muppet character on the Children's television show Sesame Street.

The theme song for Sesamstraße is "Der Die Das", whose melody and lyrics have little resemblance to the English version of Sesame Street. Sesame Street is an American educational Children's television series and a pioneer of the contemporary educational television standard combining Der, die and das are nominative German articles (so the song's title is literally "The"). German articles have a feature called "strength" which influences the declension of the adjectives

One of the most controversial moments on Sesamstraße was in a film directly showing a birth of a human baby.
