List of Sesame Street recurring segments

This is a list of miscellaneous recurring segments on the children's daytime program, Sesame Street.

What's the Word on the Street? first appeared in 2007. Murray Monster hosts the segment which precedes the corporate sponsor spots before each episode. He speaks with people about what the word of the day means, and instructs the audience to listen for its usage in the following episode.

The "Letter of the Day" is a segment introduced in 2002. Cookie Monster hosted the segment with cameo appearances by guests for the first two years. The original segments involved a letter written in icing on a cookie, which Cookie Monster tried to resist but invariably ate. In 2004, Prairie Dawn joined "Letter of the Day;" these segments involved a foam letter, which Prairie Dawn kept stopping Cookie Monster from eating, but Cookie Monster ate it anyway. Segments produced in 2005 involved "The Letter of the Day Games": a game show introduced by an energetic off-camera announcer (voiced by Matt Vogel). In 2007, the Letter Of the Day sketches became less common. Starting in 2009, Murray Monster hosts both the Letter and Number of the day segments.

The "Number of the Day" segment is hosted by Count von Count. The numbers range from zero to twenty. Initially, the segment was presented with the Count playing his pipe organ; and when he reached the number of the day, balloons, confetti and the number appeared. If the number of the day was zero, the organ disappeared in a puff of smoke. In 2005 and 2006, the number of the day was revealed at a restaurant, with the Count and his girlfriend Countess Dahling von Dahling present. The Count sang a song, asking whether the number of the day was one, two, etc. When he reached the number of the day, the Countess shouted "Stop!" Also in 2005 and 2006, the number of the day was found by using a jack-in-the-box, and starting in season 40 Murray Monster hosts both the Letter and Number of the day segments.

These CGI segments feature fairy-in-training Abby Cadabby. Abby goes to Fairy School, learning from Mrs. Sparklenose. Her class features all new characters: classmates Blögg and Gonnigan, fairies, trolls, and a part-gerbil part-unicorn called Niblet. Episodes of the preschool series are eight to nine minutes long and debuted during Season 40. 13 shorts were made. Scott Stewart's SpeakEasyFX produced.

This title is an upgraded version of Super Grover, a superheroic Muppet who saves the world helping the others. One of the segments has a talking Chicken in the Great Wall of China.
