Sesame Street - Background Theme Music: Nighttime Scene (Seasons 30-39 Version) (2000-2008)

For Seasons 38 and 39 of Sesame Street, to coincide with the new opening sequence of 2007 and the folding-city transition bumpers used in between segments, a new closing credit sequence was introduced in Season 38 with the camera panning around the computer-animated city, with appearances by Super Grover, Elmo, Big Bird, and Abby Cadabby, accompanied by a funky urban-jazz instrumental version of the theme with an alto saxophone melody and solo. The closing sequence also ends with two new Sesame Workshop logos instead of the animated one used since 2000 (Season 38 utilized an in-credit variant featuring Abby Cadabby, and Season 39 debuted a newly-animated logo with an appearance by Elmo and other Sesame Workshop characters).

Season 34 replaced two scenes from the original opening. These included Journey to Ernie instead of Hero Guy, and Global Grover instead of Zoe, Rosita, and Lulu performing 'Sing' (from Episode 3983).

Sesame Street - Opening Intro Theme (Seasons 34-37 Version) (2002-2006) (Instrumental)

For Seasons 30 through 32 of Sesame Street, the opening sequence was reverted to footage of Big Bird and various children, with a rerecorded version of the theme resembling as the original opening.

Reruns of Season 29 at the time used this opening intro in place of the previous version. 

In Episode 3851, for the show's premiere of Season 31 (2000), Zoe interrupts the opening theme sequence to point out the ballerinas in one shot (since she is one herself), and announces that there will be a lot of dancing today on Sesame Street. She leaps out of shot, and the opening sequence resumes.

Sesame Street - Opening Intro Theme (Seasons 30-32 Version) (1998-2001) (Instrumental)

For Seasons 24 through 29 of Sesame Street, the theme was updated with a calypso-flavored beat. The opening sequence employed the use of numerous animated effects and featured many more Muppet characters, including Big Bird, Grover, Oscar the Grouch (running in his trash can), Cookie Monster, Count von Count, Prairie Dawn, Ernie, Bert, Elmo, and Telly Monster. The opening footage was generally standardized from episode to episode from this point on, however, an alternate version of the opening, introduced in Season 26 and featuring Zoe and Baby Natasha in the places of Grover and Prairie Dawn, respectively, was occasionally shown. The opening sequence was designed by Balsmeyer & Everett, Inc. 

For Canadian Sesame Street, the sequence was modified to feature new localized footage of children playing, and scenes with the Canadian Muppet characters, including Basil and Louie. Two versions of this opening intro exist and the only scenes from the original 1992 sequence left intact are Big Bird in the clouds, the scenes with Count and Ernie & Bert, and the final shot with Big Bird.

Sesame Street - Opening Intro Theme (Seasons 24-29 Version) (1992-1997)

For Seasons 24 through 37 of Sesame Street, a new background track during the opening/closing street scenes was introduced in 1993 through over 15 years until 2007, including an upbeat calypso-flavored arrangement of the theme with guitar and synthesized instruments (such as flutes, drums, etc.).

The original 1993 background track was featured in the main title for The Best Of Elmo (1994), the opening theme of some Sesame Street direct home videos distributed by Sony Wonder and the ending credits for early Elmo's World home videos.

Sesame Street - Background Theme Music: Street Scene (Seasons 24-37 Version)(1993-2006)

For Seasons 1 through 37 of Sesame Street, an original background track during the closing street scenes was used in 1969 until 2007, including a standard strolling version of the theme with a harmonica solo, that closes almost every show. It plays at an extended length for the credits of Friday episodes up until season 23.

The 1969 background track returns in episodes from Seasons 34 through 37, and also plays during the end credits of early Sesame Street Home Video releases, and Elmo's World: Babies, Dogs & More! (2000).

Sesame Street - Background Music: Closing Theme (1969-2006)

For Seasons 24 through 37 of Sesame Street, a new, primarily-animated closing credit sequence was produced in 1992 to coincide with the new opening sequence introduced in the same year, complete with an upbeat rearrangement of the theme. Like the opening, this closing sequence featured animated effects and appearances by various characters, including Elmo, a Muppet pigeon, Big Bird, and various kids dancing. It was also the first closing be entirely separate from the street scenes (theme included), as the usual CTW slogan would not be announced during the last scenes on Friday episodes. Instead, Big Bird would walk by an animated Sesame Street lamppost and sign, while announcing the slogan at the end of the sequence. 

Unlike the 1992 opening sequence, the closing remained in use for over 15 years until 2007, making it the longest-running closing credit sequence used on the show, although it was progressively shortened in 2001 (when references to the Children's Television Workshop were edited out), 2002, and 2003.

Originally, when the closing sequence debuted in Episode 3010, the standard Children's Television Workshop tag is mentioned during the episode in addition to the credits, as opposed to future Friday episodes. Also, the sound effects are omitted.

The scrolling credits that would appear during the Muppet pigeon scene were originally aligned to the right, but starting with Season 30, they were centered. 

For Season 31, after the Children's Television Workshop was renamed to Sesame Workshop, a brief amount of reruns on PBS had Big Bird's vocals announcing the CTW slogan omitted, with Big Bird erroneously saying nothing at all. This version also removed the last "toot-toot" from the passing boat at the end. For updated masters of episodes for this season, as well as reruns on PBS Kids Sprout, the original sequence fades out to the purple copyright "Toodle-oo" screen (again, now modified to read Sesame Workshop), before the CTW partial funding ending disclaimer is shown. 

For Season 32, the scene with the kids dancing under the laundry line transitions to the final shot with the Statue of Liberty and the Sesame Street sign (now altered to read 123 instead of CTW). The music is also altered during this scene. 

For Season 33, the animated transition shots (zooms, wipes, etc.) are removed, and several sequences are shortened (notably the subway sequence is reduced to one shot with the train running past the camera).

And finally, for Season 34, further scenes are removed, including the scenes with Elmo dancing, and the Muppet pigeon flying. The only scenes left intact are the Statue of Liberty dancing, Big Bird's scene with the three buildings, the subway sequence (reinstated to its entirely, albeit slightly edited), Elmo and the balloons, the laundry line, and the final shot. 

This version of the 1992 closing theme was also used on the NBC broadcast of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade whenever the Sesame Street float was introduced from 1995 to 2013. 

For Seasons 37 through 39 of Sesame Street, during the PBS Kids funding credits, the 1992 closing theme (from Seasons 24 through 37) was also used from 2006 to 2008.

Sometimes, the song from this episode contains an electric guitar added in. Also, an instrumental and shortened version of this song is played during the ending credits, but it leaves the middle lyrics intact.
