"Barrio Sesamo" combines an original Spanish episode with the USA show footage dubbed to Spanish. This program has passed through three periods. In the first period (1979-1980), Caponata, the Spanish name for Big Bird, lives in a street where all the neighbors are friends and live happily with Perezgil, Caponata's best friend, a smart snail with eyeglasses. The second period (1981 -1987) was the most successful in Spain starring Espinete, a big pink hedgehog that has a lot of friends in the street where he lives, and his best friend Don Pimpón (never was revealed in which kind of animal is based the character; a theory points to an owl), a nomad who travels around the world and later he come back to the neighborhood to tell his adventures. Eight years later it was revived for a third and last period (1995-2000) with Blucky as the new main character and the single episode format of the two previous periods was changed by short sketches combined with Sesame Street footage.
