Gordon Robinson, a former history teacher and army veteran, moves with his wife, Susan, into 123 Sesame Street — a vibrant yet mysterious urban neighborhood that no one quite knows how to get to. As they settle in, the Robinsons meet their new neighbors: the friendly music teacher Bob, the resourceful Maria and her inventive partner Luis, the energetic David, and the kind but gruff Mr. Hooper, owner of the local store. Gordon dreams of bringing the community together by teaching children about ABCs, 123s, and the imaginative ways of growing up and learning. His efforts spark something magical, as a cast of strange yet lovable Muppets like the curious and gentle Big Bird emerge from the shadows to join in. Together, the humans and Muppets create a unique and welcoming neighborhood where everyone learns, laughs, and grows. A small place that will grow bigger and last forever.
