There are not a lot of appearances of Japanese and references to Japan on Sesame Street, so of which are problematic, but there are come cool things there as well. In the early 1970s, a series of Sesame Street sketches aired, telling stories from ancient Japan. Relying on traditional Japanese music, punctuated by a ringing gong, the tales were told by a stoic, seated storyteller. Recurring characters within these stories included [[The Emperor of Japan (Sesame Street)|The Emperor of Japan]], [[The Young Son (Sesame Street)]] and [[The Evil Prime Minister (Sesame Street)|The Evil Prime Minister]]. ==Researching== * In 1997, when the wormship Wiggleprise landed on the Moon. [[Squashimi (Sesame Street)|Squashimi]], a worm from Japan, was one of the first worms to wiggle on the Moon. * In episode 317, Fozzie assisted a group of Samurai Mutations for the musical number, "[[Yokahama (Sesame Street)|Yokahama]]" * Scene from the 1978 Sesame Street Calendar. * Japanese Baby Piggy in "Fun Park Fantasies." * In 1990, Janice wore a kimono in front of the Japan pavilion at Epcot Center as seen in "The Muppets at Walt Disney World". * Toei Animation Co. produced the actual animation for the first three seasons of Muppet Babies. * Piko-Taro Stops By Sesame Street [[Category: Entertainment]] [[Category: Television]] [[Category: Fictional]] [[Category: Collections]]
