too Black, but it was actually the
Black parents. It was the parents of the Black children who didn’t want that to be symbolizing their culture,” director Marilyn Agrelo said in TheWrap’s Sundance Studio presented by NFP and National Geographic. “We love that people think this is a story about ‘Sesame Street’ and we’re going to see the Muppets and it is but it’s a hundred other things you don’t see coming, and that’s what we love the most.”
Robinson and the other creators felt Roosevelt was a proudly Black character, but it too quietly disappeared from the airwaves after families objected. It ultimately led to Robinson’s departure from the show and was a blow to the creators who had from the beginning intended for “Sesame Street” to be a show for inner-city children. Even the stoop and street corner of the “Sesame Street” set was modeled off the look of New York City blocks that kids would see from just outside their windows.

It makes perfect sense that there’s now a documentary about the long-running children’s television series “Sesame Street.” After all, there’s already been a doc about the puppeteer who played the characters of Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch on that show (“I Am Big Bird: The Carroll Spinney Story”), and one about the man who played Elmo (“Being Elmo: A Puppeteer’s Journey”) while “Won’t You Be My Neighbor?,” Morgan Neville’s 2018 film about another children’s TV icon, Mister Rogers, recently became the 12th highest-grossing nonfiction film of all time.

Following extensive research and strategic planning, Palmer’s has launched its first-ever masterbrand marketing campaign in Australia through creative agency AnalogFolk this week.
Research identified that the idea of women suffering from ‘beauty chaos’ was universally felt and understood, with the new campaign a compelling reminder that Palmer’s knows that beauty is far less complicated and expensive than the industry makes it out to be.
Palmer’s proven, natural-based formulas were seen as a credible solution to the confusion and contradictions in beauty messaging, including the all-too-common empty promises in the industry.
The new ‘Find the Formula’ campaign for the skin and haircare brand is the first major brand push in 15 years, with previous advertising focussed on product-specific messages.

Palmer’s is addressing the overload of products which has come with the skincare and beauty boom in its first masterbrand campaign launching this week.
The ad presents Palmer’s range of natural-based formulas as the solution to the search consumers need to go on in their morning routines to find the product they are looking for.
The campaign launches the platform ‘Find the Formula’, sending the message that beauty can be simple.
Hayley Bishop, Palmer’s Australia marketing manager, said: “This is an exciting time for Palmer’s and we expect this new campaign to reignite relevance and interest in Palmer’s with both lapsed and new users. The core premise at the heart of Palmer’s is simple products that actually work, making affordable, effective beauty care accessible. We’re confident about investing in long-term brand building to ensure continued success, longevity and growth for the Palmer’s brand.
