Others may even go as far back as when Elmo debuted as a minor character (even way before he became what he is now and before Kevin Clash and Ryan Dillon started voicing him), or even misblame him for Kermit's absence in the show (which is irrelevant) and/or thinking that he replaced Grover (though Grover started to be featured more often since 2012 along with Cookie Monster).

Murray becomes the show's de facto host at this point.

** 2013: They changedshow and the episode numbering system is changed to seasonal order rather than chronological. For example, Episode 4401, the first episode of the 44th season, is not the 4,401st episode (it is in fact the 4,328th episode). While a number system that works like that debuted with season 43, the episode numbers were still the chronological and removed Gabi?!

The set changed the most when Big Bird's doors was dropped, Elmo moved to Gordon and Luis''? ''SCREW THIS!''

''Series/SesameStreet'': While not as bad as other shows that went into {{SeasonalRot}}, depending on one's point of view and what year they grew up on Sesame Street, it is mainly based on the divisive changes that caused them to outgrow this show. The most common reactions are:
** 1980-1985: Some people complained about Elmo, and they call him the "little red menace" (which is what Oscar the Grouch calls Elmo as), especially when he started taking over the show since the 1990s (though Big Bird also has the same problem in the mid to late 1970s). Others may even go as far back as when Elmo debuted as a minor character (even way before he became what he is now and before Kevin Clash and Ryan Dillon started voicing him), or even misblame him for Kermit's absence in the show (which is irrelevant) and/or thinking that he replaced Grover (though Grover started to be featured more often since 2012 along with Cookie Monster).
** 1983: Many people cried when [[TheCharacterDiedWithHim Mr. Hooper died]], especially when they did an episode about Mr. Hooper's death.
** 1990: When Jim Hensonhas died? died, that was when people said ''Rest in Peace, Sesame Street.'''' Despite creating the Muppets, directing some segments, playing characters like Ernie, Kermit, and Guy Smiley, had some involvement with Sesame Street's development, Jim Henson wasn't the creator of Sesame Street; Joan Ganz Cooney and Lloyd Morrissett actually were.
