Developed by Thirteen/WNET New York with Children’s Television Workshop (Sesame Workshop) involvement, the reboot updated the original’s mission with hip-hop-influenced segments, digital shorts, and a cast that included Lin-Manuel Miranda, helping introduce the show to a new generation. #linmanuelmiranda #theelectriccompany #pbs #nostalgia"
