The Sesame Street cast of season 10.
Mr. Hooper and David meet Telly Monster, a monster obsessed with watching television.
Bert teaches his pet pigeon Bernice how to play checkers.
Many segments take the cast out on-location in New York City.
Sesame Street Season 10 aired from November 27, 1978 to May 25, 1979.
Overview
The season's main curriculum elements include pre-reading, science concepts, health and nutrition.
New recurring Muppet characters are introduced this season; including Telly Monster (debuting in episode 1257 as a monster obsessed with television) and Oscar's chauffeur Bruno the Trashman (introduced in episode 1259). Also introduced this season are the Polka Dot People, a family of Muppets who teach cultural diversity and a physically disabled Muppet. A large Muppet dog, previously introduced in Episode 1177 as "Woof Woof," is established as Barkley in the season premiere.
The season's locations also extend beyond the basic street set. New locations such as a hospital, day care, the rooftop and basement of 123, and the apartments of the human cast are explored. Several segments of the show are shot on-location in various New York City hot spots, including Central Park, Lincoln Center and Chinatown.[1]

Notes
- For the tenth season, Jim Henson and Michael Frith were given the task of coming up with some new Muppet characters to revitalize the show. One of Frith's suggestions was a living pile of trash who would act as a font of wisdom. This idea was rejected by the Sesame Street team, but was recycled a few years later to become Fraggle Rock's Marjory the Trash Heap.[2] Another proposed character was a younger brother for Mr. Snuffleupagus.
- Starting with this season (all the way up to 1982), an alternate version of the Children's Television Workshop logo is featured. The exact same Roman-style plaque is used, except that it was printed with standard font (in the same font as the show's letters and numbers) as opposed to the crudely-painted text on the earlier logo.
