What happens

Sesam stasjon (English: Sesame Station) was a 1990s Norwegian children's television series that ran on NRK1 (and sometimes NRK2) based on Sesame Street. It quickly became the most popular children's show in Norway after its debut in 1991, and 198 episodes were made until 1999. Unlike their predecessors from all over the world it is set in a railway station near a town instead of the traditional Sesame Street neighbourhood, which is considered unusual among the international co-productions of Sesame Street. Each episode is 30 minutes, of which 15–20 are from the Norwegian production and 10–15 are dubbed from Sesame Street. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
